Preliminary cost estimates can be used to compare the economics of various treatment processes or the costs of major project components. Such estimates do not, however, represent the actual construction and operation and maintenance costs of the project. Actual project costs are site‐specific, cannot be generalized, and must be developed for individual circumstances.
