• A one-hour minimum charge will be applied to materials sampling and sample pickups.
• A two-hour show-up charge will be applied to any service canceled after 4:00PM the previous day.
• A four-hour minimum charge will be applied to all field services.
• A six-hour charge will be applied to all field services requiring between four and six hours of work.
• An eight-hour charge will be applied to all field services requiring between six and eight hours of work.
• Work In excess of eight hours up to twelve hours in a single day, will be charged in 30-minute increments
at I.S times the standard rate.
• Work in excess of twelve hours in a day will be charged in one-hour increments at 2.0 times the standard
rate.
• The Director of Industrial Relations (DIR) may dictate periodic Increases to the prevailing wage during the

equipment rental, administrative time utilized for photocopying, distribution lists, express mailing. archive
searches. etc.
Subcontracted services that are included on the Fee Schedule will be charged at those rates. Subcontracted
services not included in our Fee Schedule will be charged at cost plus 20 percent. Per diem charges will be
applied to projects outside a SO-mile radius of our office. Mileage will be charged at the rate of SO cents per
mile for distances over SO miles from the location of dispatch.
" TERMS AND CONDmONS (CONT.)
Invoices for all services completed or In progress will be submitted bi-monthly. These invoices are due in full
upon presentation to the client. Invoices outstanding over 30 days will be considered past due. A finance
charge will be computed at the rate of 1.5 percent per month, which is an annual rate of 18 percent and
charged on all past due accounts. If legal action is brought on delinquent accounts, the prevailing party shall be
entitled to recover its reasonable attorney's fees and other costs of collection.
Our professional engineering, geology, and inspection services are performed in accordance with the current
standards of practice in the industry. No other warranty or representation, express or implied, is made or
intended.
Should any services provided by SCS& T for this project become subject to state or federal prevailing wage
requirements. SCS&T will be compensated for those services at its prevailing wage rates, from the date these

All field services will be charged from portal to portal with the following minimum charges:
• A one-hour minimum charge will be applied to materials sampling and sample pickups.
• A two-hour show-up charge will be applied to any service canceled after 4:00 PM the previous day.
• A four-hour minimum charge will be applied to all field services.
• A six-hour charge will be applied to all field services requiring between four and six hours of work.
• An eight-hour charge will be applied to all field services requiring between six and eight hours of work.
• Work in excess of eight hours up to twelve hours in a single day, will be charged in 30-minute increments
at 1.5 times the standard rate.
• Work in excess of twelve hours in a day will be charged in one-hour increments at 2.0 times the standard
rate.
• The Director of Industrial Relations (DIR) may dictate periodic increases to the prevailing wage during the
duration of this project/contract. SCS&T will increase our hourly rate on the effective date determined by
the DJR, by a factor of 1.8 times the hourly increase.
• A two and one-half percent (2.5%) fee will be charged for project administrative tasks.
• Certified payroll can be provided if requested. A one-hour administrative charge will be invoiced per pay
period.
Work performed by field or laboratory personnel outside of normal business hours (6:30AM-5:00PM) will
be charged a premium on a case-by-case basis.
Reimbursables: SCS& T reserves the right to charge for services outside of the contract in the form of
reimbursables. These items Include, but are not limited to the following consumables: magnetic particle
powder, ultrasonic copulent, concrete cylinder cans, etc. The following are also included: mileage, travel time,
equipment rental, administrative time utilized for photocopying. distribution lists, express mailing. archive
searches, etc.
Subcontracted services that are included on the Fee Schedule will be charged at those rates. Subcontracted
services not included in our Fee Schedule will be charged at cost plus 20 percent. Per diem charges will be
applied to projects outside a SO~mile radius of our office. Mileage will be charged at the rate of SO cents per
mile for distances over SO miles from the location of dispatch.
TERMS AND CONDITIONS (CONT.}
Invoices for all services completed or in progress will be submitted bi-monthly. These Invoices are due in full
upon presentation to the client. Invoices outstanding over 30 days will be considered past due. A finance
charge will be computed at the rate of 1.5 percent per month, which Is an annual rate of 18 percent and
charged on all past due accounts. If legal action is brought on delinquent accounts, the prevailing party shall be
entitled to recover its reasonable attorney's fees and other costs of collection.
Our professional engineering. geology, and inspection services are performed in accordance with the current
standards of practice in the industry. No other warranty or representation, express or implied, Is made or
intended.
Should any services provided by SCS& T for this project become subject to state or federal prevailing wage
requirements, SCS&T will be compensated for those services at its prevailing wage rates, from the date these
requirements become effective through completion of the project.
