This document is an Amendment No. 1 to DEP Contract No. GC700, a contractual services agreement and purchase order for task assignments entered into on May 4, 2007, between the Florida Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) and the Florida Department of Health, Columbia County Health Department. The contract is managed by William E. Burns Jr. on behalf of DEP, with Debbie Bates serving as the Contracts Office representative.

The contract provides services related to the Storage Tank System Compliance Verification Program. Amendment No. 1, executed in December 2008, modifies the original contract by deleting Paragraphs 5.H and 5.I in their entirety and replacing Paragraph 28 with revised financial reporting requirements. The amendment establishes that the contractor must provide a Statement of Revenue, Expenses and Fund Balance utilizing specific guidelines within sixty days of each fiscal year end (June 30th). Failure to timely submit this statement results in a five percent penalty assessed against the current task assignment amount, with the penalty deducted from Invoice Number 12. The method of payment is designated as lump sum, and the procurement method is classified as exempt for a governmental entity. All work must be verified in a certified statement signed by the contract manager or higher authority prior to payment.
