Scalebar
Add to Modelspace 1”=4000'
Background
Draw scalebar in modelspace, then when the drawing is XREF into a layout's data frame, the scalebar is automatically included.
Use WIPEOUT to mask behind the scalebar
Use WIPEOUTFRAME 2 to see the wipeout frame but not plot it
Don't place
WipeOut on No Plot Layer, if you do wipeout will not plot and might as well as not even use the wipeout command
Layout scalebar is 1“ wide by 6/64” tall, to find the modelspace dimension, multiple by 5000 since we are in Civil 3D and using 1“=5000' relative scale

"The cover sheet is unique to the sheet organization format. The cover sheet may identify the project, owner, and other project team members involved in
preparing the drawings. The cover sheet may also contain a photograph, rendering of the project, or logo of the owner or preparer. If the cover sheet
contains specific project data such as a list of sheets, a listing of abbreviations, general notes, a building code summary, or a key plan, etc., it
should be identified with a sheet identifier containing the discipline designator G for general, sheet type 0, and the sequence number 01(G001)."
