This document is Amendment No. 1 to DEP Contract No. PL240, executed on August 6, 2011, between the Florida Department of Environmental Protection (DEPARTMENT) and Nobles Consulting Group, Inc. (CONTRACTOR). The contract was originally entered into on December 6, 2010. Jorge Alonso serves as the DEP Contract Manager overseeing this indefinite delivery vehicle for professional surveying and mapping services.

Amendment No. 1 adds two substantive modifications to the original contract. First, the CONTRACTOR is required to enroll and participate in the federal E-Verify Program for Employment Verification within thirty (30) days of the amendment's effective date, and must require all subcontractors to enroll within ninety (90) days. The CONTRACTOR must maintain records of compliance and make such documentation available to the DEPARTMENT upon request, with non-compliance constituting a material breach of contract. Second, the amendment modifies Section XIV regarding use of the contract by other State of Florida Governmental entities, restricting professional surveying and mapping services to statewide use limited to surveying and mapping necessary for acquisition or management purposes, including services supporting Board of Trustees activities of the Internal Improvement Trust Fund, provided such use is cost-effective and in the best interest of the State.
