I will be brewing an ESB this weekend. My hop sequence is as follows:

1.50 oz Goldings, East Kent [5.50 %] (60 min) (First Wort Hop) Hops 30.4 IBU
0.25 oz Fuggles [4.00 %] (20 min) Hops 2.0 IBU
0.25 oz Goldings, East Kent [5.50 %] (20 min) Hops 2.8 IBU
0.25 oz Fuggles [4.00 %] (0 min) Hops
0.25 oz Goldings, East Kent [5.50 %] (0 min) Hops

My question is: do I remove the hop bag containing the 1st round of Goldings hops after the 1 hour of boiling time or do I just leave that hop bag in the wort and add the remaining hop bags?
 
All those times are concurrent. Once you put the hops in, you don't take them back out.
 
No problem... and to be clear, those times are also all durations, counted backward from the end of the boil. So if you're boiling for 60 minutes, you'll put your 1.50 ounces of EKG in at the start of the boil, then 40 minutes later you'll put in your 0.25 ounces of Fuggles and 0.25 ounces of EKG, then 20 minutes later you'll add the rest and then turn the heat off.
 
So if 2 tsp of Irish Moss is being added to the last 20 min of the boil, it should be added when the 2nd round of Goldings and the 1st round of Fuggles are added, correct?
