DEP Contract No. GC652, Amendment No. 5

This document is the fifth amendment to a master services contract between the Florida Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) and Golder Associates, Inc., executed on May 16, 2005, with subsequent amendments dated April 4, 2006, June 6, 2007, November 21, 2008, and July 30, 2009. The amendment modifies the original contract to incorporate additional funding mechanisms and updated forms for task assignment and reporting requirements related to petroleum contamination site cleanup services.

Amendment No. 5 revises references to task assignment and task assignment change order forms to include two new EPA-funded attachment forms: the EPA Funded Task Assignment Form (Attachment A-2) and the EPA Funded Task Assignment Change Order Form (Attachment B-2). The amendment deletes the previous Subcontractor Utilization Report Form and replaces it with a Revised Subcontractor Utilization Report Form. For services funded through EPA Leaking Underground Storage Tank Trust Fund Program grant monies, the contractor must comply with Additional Terms and Conditions for the Use of Federal EPA Funds (Attachment N), which establish requirements for recycling and waste prevention, final reporting with federal funding acknowledgment, compensation limitations, release of claims, audit access and record retention for five years post-completion, MBE/WBE utilization goals of 9% for minorities and 3% for women in construction and services, and various federal compliance obligations including debarment certification, drug-free workplace requirements, and prohibitions on trafficking and gratuities.
