The contract covers the first two phases of a $960,000 contract.
ALNM will provide services for the study and report phase, preliminary and final design, construction engineering and observation.

This is as we anticipated, turning out to be a combined company relationship that will be beneficial to us, the employees of ALNM, and our combined clients."
