Countersink Holes and Drill File

I am working on a design that requires plated counter sunk holes in it. The holes I want counter sunk show in the drill legend, how do I incorporate that information into the drill file so the board house that makes my PCB knows they are counter sunk holes?

I'm with RFinley - show it on the fabrication drawing, in a Detail. One thing - "Plated" counter-sink hole? Never done it in my career. Not sure why you need it plated, but that's your decision. But, detail it, and highlight it in the drill legend.
