This document is a Separation of Duties Notice and Amendment No. 1 to DEP Contract No. GC686, entered into on May 22, 2007, between the Florida Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) and the Brevard County Board of County Commissioners. The amendment was executed on January 27, 2009, by authorized representatives including Chuck Nelson (Chairman, Brevard County), William E. Burns Jr. (DEP Contract Manager), and DEP legal counsel. The notice emphasizes that the contract manager must not execute the contract due to separation of duties requirements, and that a reviewing authority must execute the amendment instead.

Amendment No. 1 deletes paragraphs 5.H and 5.I in their entirety and replaces paragraph 28 regarding financial reporting requirements. The revised paragraph 28 requires the contractor to provide a Statement of Revenue, Expenses and Fund Balance within sixty days of the end of the State Fiscal Year using Guidance Document G. If the contractor fails to timely provide this statement, a five percent penalty will be assessed against Invoice Number 12 of the current Task Assignment Year. The contract covers Storage Tank System Compliance Verification Program services, with payment method specified as Lump Sum. The underlying contract remains in full force and effect except as modified by this amendment.
