Opinion

CAMERON, Chief Justice.

This is an appeal by defendant, L. H. Bell and Associates, Inc., from a judgment entered on behalf of the plaintiffs William and Bertha Granger, husband and wife, and Jay C. and Joan L. Robertson, husband and wife, for damages sustained as a result of the flooding of property located adjacent to the New River Road and Bridge on the Old Black Canyon Highway some 40 miles north of Phoenix, Arizona.

We are asked to answer the following questions:

1. Was L. H. Bell and Associates negligent in the design of the approaches to the New River Bridge?
2. If so, did Maricopa County’s acceptance of L. H. Bell’s design relieve it of liability?
3. Was it error to award damages for loss of profit?

The plaintiffs Jay C. Robertson and Joan L. Robertson are owners of real property at 47801 North Black Canyon Highway, New River, Maricopa County, Arizona. The Robertson property is bordered' on the west by the Old Black Canyon Highway, on the east by the New River, and on the south by the New River Road. See Exhibit A (Page 430)
