This is Amendment No. 2 to DEP Contract No. GC850, a state contract between the Florida Department of Environmental Protection (FDEP) and ECOTECH Environmental Services, Inc. The amendment was executed on March 24, 2017, and restates the contract originally entered into on February 24, 2014, and amended on September 30, 2015. ECOTECH Environmental Services, Inc., based in Pompano Beach, Florida, is the contractor, with Timothy Dehen serving as the primary contact. The contract supports the FDEP's Petroleum Restoration Program under solicitation number 2014004C.

The amendment makes substantive revisions to multiple contract provisions, including notification procedures, public records requirements, record-keeping and audit obligations, tax exemption status, contractor disqualification criteria, and MyFloridaMarketPlace transaction fee procedures.
