Added to the resources page. Wasn't sure how active that page is / if people really go to it. I had put a lot on there back in 2014-15.

Weird, I have not had any issues. Did you try from the resources page too? It is a PDF, maybe I can host it on my drop box and add that link?

Remy,
Recommend not hosting it on a personal dropbox or other account. The web resources is the best option. I was able to view it.

Probably a good idea. Most people have been able to see it.
If anybody cannot see it, just google Delta Cost Index Database and it is like the 2nd or 3rd link in google.

I found a copy back in 2012 and began using 80 as my standard. 9999 when I need to get there.
