This document is a Contract Amendment (Amendment No. 1) for DEP Contract No. PL193 between the Florida Department of Environmental Protection (the "DEPARTMENT") and Carlton Appraisal Company (the "CONTRACTOR"), originally entered into on April 20, 2008. The amendment is in response to Chapter No. 2010-151, a Florida law requiring state agencies to review and renegotiate existing contract rates with providers to reduce contract payments.

The amendment extends the contract's completion date from April 19, 2011 to April 19, 2014, exercising a three-year renewal option. It includes a new provision requiring the contractor to use the U.S. Department of Homeland Security's E-Verify System to confirm employment eligibility for all employees and subcontractors. Attachment 3, the original Fee Schedule, is replaced with Attachment 3-1, which details revised hourly rates for Statewide Appraisal Services: $250/hour in 2008-2009, $275/hour in 2010, and $99/hour for 2011-2013, reflecting a significant reduction in rates as part of the contract renegotiation.
