Mr. Jim Breslin:
I agree with that with one proviso. This is not a traditional project where the claims come in after the contract is awarded. It has a guaranteed maximum price. The study we are doing is for things that would not normally be provided for under a contract. It is an achievement to have a guarantee on the maximum price which means that the contractor cannot come back during the course of building this and say that more cement or more fittings are needed.
