This document presents a preliminary cost summary for a floating cover system designed for the HAWC Observatory. The floating cover is constructed from 60 mil/5 ply Hypalon fabric, capable of floating at a water depth of 2 meters. It includes curtains that are attached to buoyed tension cables, along with non-corrosive cables anchored to grade beams. The structure is designed for light-tight construction and features hatch ports for maintenance access. Additionally, it is robust enough to support personnel and includes an ROV for maintenance and servicing.
