I was <br />expecting to receive quotes from earthwork subcontractors for <br />this portion of work and when I didn't, I had to put in my own <br />figure. I put in a price of $2,000.00. This amount did not come <br />close to covering the work required. The amount that should have <br />been used was over $10,000.00. <br />Therefore, at the price I submitted I would suffer substantial <br />financial loss. <br />Admittedly, it was bad judgenent to put a figure on such a <br />specialized item of work, but I was in a situation of either <br />figuring the earthwork myself or scrapping the bid. Obviously, I <br />should have chosen the latter. <br />I hope that this explanation is considered sufficient for my <br />withdrawal. <br />Sincerely, <br />Z , <br />Richard D.
