Safe Harbor Indirect Cost Rate
Dear Mr. Hendrickson:
Washington State has received approval from our local Federal Highway Administration (FHWA)
Division to continue administering the “safe harbor” indirect cost rate program on engineering and
design related service contracts, as well as for Local Public Agency projects.
We have completed our risk assessment for Pacific Engineering & Design, PLLC. We conducted our
assessment based on the documentation provided by the firm. The reviewed data included, but was not
limited to, a description of the company, basis of accounting, accounting system and the basis of indirect
costs. Based on our review, your firm is eligible to use the Safe Harbor rate. You have opted to use the
Safe Harbor rate, rather than provide a FAR-compliant rate at this time.
We are issuing the Safe Harbor Indirect Cost Rate of 110% of direct labor with a field rate, where
applicable, of 80% of direct labor for Pacific Engineering & Design. The Safe Harbor rate is effective
on June 9, 2021.
Pacific Engineering & Design has agreed to improve Internal Controls and timekeeping processes to be
able to develop an Indirect Cost Rate Schedule in the future in accordance with the Federal Acquisition
Regulations (FAR), Subpart 31. The WSDOT Internal Audit Office has provided guidance and
information related to FARs and the AASHTO Audit Guide. You may use the Safe Harbor Rate of
110%, or 80% for field office situations, for agreements entered prior to June 9, 2024. For agreements
entered after this date, please contact the WSDOT Consultant Services Office (CSO) or our office for
guidance.
The Safe Harbor Rate will not be subject to audit. Please coordinate with CSO or your Local Programs
contact if you have questions about when to apply the Safe Harbor rate to your agreement.
If you have any questions, please contact Steve McKerney or me at (360)705-7003.
Sincerely,
Schatzie Harvey, CPA
