 IN AN EFFORT TO MOVE THIS PROJECT FORWARD THE FOLLOWING
 IS REQUIRED:

 PLEASE TAKE NOTICE
  
 SHOP DRAWINGS SUBMITTED UNDER A SPERATE PERMIT WILL BE
 DENIED UNTIL THE REQUIRED DOCUMENTS ARE SUBMITTED UNDER
 THIS MASTER PERMIT.

 INTERPRETATIONS. THE DOCUMENTS MAY SUBSEQUENTLY BE
 REVISED BY THE ENGINEER TO REFLECT RESOLUTION OF ISSUES
 WITH THE PUBLIC AGENCY PRIOR TO FINAL ACTION BY THE
 AGENCY. CHANGES, REVISIONS AND MODIFICATIONS TO A
