<br />or any modification of the documents, without written verification, completion, or adaptation by
<br />Engineer, as appropriate for the specific purpose intended, will be at Owner's sole risk and without

<br />other's employees, officers, directors, agents, insurers, partners, and consultants, any and all claims
<br />for or entitlement to special, incidental, indirect, or consequential damages arising out of, resulting
<br />from, or in any way related to the Project, and (2) agree that Engineer's total liability to Owner

<br />encounters a Hazardous Environmental Condition, Engineer may, at its option and without liability
<br />for consequential or any other damages, suspend performance of services on the portion of the
<br />Project affected thereby until Owner: (1) retains appropriate specialist consultants or contractors to
<br />identify and, as appropriate, abate, remediate, or remove the Hazardous Environmental Condition;
<br />and (2) warrants that the Site is in full compliance with applicable Laws and Regulations.
