Note 1: The estimated quantity is based on the approximate size of flat marker gravesites, and may not include additional area due to existing slopes, reductions due to the area below flat marker headstones and actual site conditions, etc. Therefore the contractor must take into account all these factors when determining their unit price. Adjustments to the contract price for these factors will not be allowed.
