DEP Contract No. GC808 Amendment No. 2 is a contract amendment executed between the Florida Department of Environmental Protection (Department) and FRS Environmental Remediation, Inc. DBA The FGS Group (Contractor), originally entered into on February 19, 2014, and amended on September 30, 2015. The amendment was further executed on March 14, 2017 by the Contractor and April 5, 2017 by the Department. This restated contract pertains to environmental remediation services under the Petroleum Restoration Program.

The amendment modifies multiple contract provisions including notice and communication procedures, public records requirements, record keeping and audit provisions, tax exemption status, contractor disqualification criteria, MyFloridaMarketPlace transaction fee procedures, and execution in counterparts.
