This document is Amendment No. 3 to DEP Contract No. GC746, a restated contract between the Florida Department of Environmental Protection (FDEP) and Ellis & Associates, Inc. (E & A), effective February 28, 2014, and amended September 30, 2015. The amendment was executed on March 1, 2017, by the FDEP and on April 5, 2017, by the contractor. The contract pertains to the Petroleum Restoration Program and was originally procured under DEP Solicitation Number 2014004C.

Amendment No. 3 modifies multiple contract provisions, including updates to notice delivery procedures, public records requirements, record-keeping and audit standards, tax exemption clarifications, contractor disqualification standards, and MyFloridaMarketPlace transaction fee requirements. The amendment also updates the contract's Scope of Services by deleting Item No. 44 (Investigations Near Petroleum Storage Systems) and adding two new items: Item No. 44.a (Restatement of Memo dated September 25, 2000 Amending Guidance for Amended & Restated Agency Term Contracts) and Item No. 44.b (Performance Standards for State-Funded Investigations Near Petroleum Storage Systems and Utilities, effective December 15, 2016). All other terms and conditions of the restated contract remain unchanged. A separate memorandum from the FDEP Interim Secretary delegates authority to execute amendments to Agency Term Contracts to the Interim Deputy Secretary for Regulatory Programs.
