This document is an Amendment No. 1 to a contract (DEP Contract No. DC848) between the State of Florida Department of Environmental Protection and McKellips Associates, Inc., a Florida corporation, originally entered into on March 18, 2009. The amendment involves a contract for architectural services and is part of a state-level contract renewal process aimed at reducing contract payments in accordance with Florida Laws.

The amendment extends the contract's completion date from March 18, 2012 to March 18, 2015, with provisions for a three-year renewal period. Professional fees are to be expressed as a fixed price, including all consultant's non-reimbursable costs and profit, and apportioned to the percentage of total services for each invoice. A key addition to the contract requires the consultant to enroll and participate in the federal E-Verify Program for Employment Verification, with obligations to enroll within thirty days and require subcontractors to do the same. The hourly rates for the principal architect, Rolland A. McKellips, are documented at $332.85, with overhead and profit calculations included, and a staff intern rate of $18.75 is also specified.
