consultation and advice and furnishing customary services incidental thereto.
B. Standard of Care
The ENGINEER shall perform its services:

project other than the PROJECT described herein.
E. Engineer's Personnel at Construction Site
(1) The presence or duties of the ENGINEER's personnel at a construction site,
