Topo survey price - is this reasonable?

I know, I know. It blows my mind it is not flat.
Get this... my dad's lot has a 5' slope across where the house pad will be. The builder had quoted ~$10K for the pad, but once they found out it had a 5' slope, the pad cost tripled to $30K. Maybe they have to call in an out of state contractor....?

Met the developer today - great guy. A back-woods, country-boy, for sure. He's gonna do some dirt work for me and put in a couple 12" dia culvert pipes, side-by-side, so I can drive to the back of my property.
No land fill. Maybe some cow pies though.
