Option 2. Include our review letter with your comments addressing the letter. You can just write it out on our review
letter; that way it all coincides and I can easily look at the explanation and the modified markings on plan.

diwanna,
i am trying to figure out which is the best way for you to view these files.
1, i could send all of the pages that were revised with no markings via pdf.
i.e. "clean"
2, i could send all of the pages that were revised with RED CLOUDS where
revisions were made via pdf
3, i could print hard copies and come to your office.
i will also send your review letter and the letter from the geotechnical
engineer spelling out the best alternative for the proposed paving section.
please advise.
yours truly,
micha p. fluffy, pe
