This is Amendment No. 3 to DEP Contract No. GC708, a contract originally executed on May 29, 2007, between the Florida Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) and the Florida Department of Health, St. Johns County Health Department. The amendment was executed on August 15, 2013, and is managed by William E. Burns Jr., DEP Contract Manager. The document also includes a Separation of Duties Notice dated July 12, 2013, issued by Contracts Office Representative Debbie Bates.

Amendment No. 3 makes several key modifications to the contract: the contractor name is changed from the St. Johns County Health Department to the Florida Department of Health; all references to performance of services in St. Johns, Flager, and Putnam Counties are revised to read St. Johns and Flager Counties only; services for Putnam County for fiscal year 2013-2014 are removed from the contract; and Paragraph 71 regarding severability is deleted and replaced with new language specifying that the contract shall be construed in accordance with Florida law with any disputes brought in Leon County, Florida. The contract concerns Level 1 Storage Tank System Compliance Verification services, and the amendment reflects organizational restructuring and staffing limitations requiring reassignment of Putnam County services to the Alachua County Board of County Commissioners.
