To this end, we would like to clarify GEI position with respect to inspection section of GEI report as follows: This section of GEI report is a disclosure to clients that in the event that another consultant performs inspection and testing during construction of your project, then GEI would not be responsible for the outcome. It is the standard of profession that the consultant who has prepared the soil report also reviews the plans and would perform inspection during construction. This is logical because they are the ones that are most familiar with site condition and have prepared and signed the report. For your information,we have done work for cities, counties, attorneys and even superior court judges and no one has raised any questions/switched to another consultant. Furthermore, please note that you have already had a contract with GEI in accordance with your authorization of March 9,2011 of GEI proposal dated March 8,2011. The client is always free to retain another geotechnical consultant. However, the new geotechnical consultant must confirm in writing that he has reviewed the design level geotechnical investigation report and does or does not concur with the recommendations contain therein (if not, the revised/alternative recommendations must be clearly outlined and justified; and that The new geotechnical consultant would now be the "geotechnical consultant of record" and as such assumes full responsibility for the geotechnical aspects of the project.
