This is Amendment No. 8 to DEP Contract No. SP469, a contract between the Florida Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) and BCI Engineers & Scientists, Inc. The contract was originally executed on June 24, 1998, and has been amended multiple times, with this amendment dated January 9, 2012. The amendment updates contractor contact information, changing the designated contact person for delivery of notices from Alan Jare to David Butcher, P.E., and updating the Contract Manager from Alan Jare to David Butcher, P.E., with phone number 863-667-2345.

This amendment adds two significant regulatory requirements to the contract. First, it requires the Contractor to utilize the U.S. Department of Homeland Security's E-Verify system to verify employment of all new employees hired during the contract term, and to include this requirement in all related subcontracts. Second, it adds compliance certifications requiring the Contractor to certify that it is not listed on the Scrutinized Companies with Activities in Sudan List or the Scrutinized Companies with Activities in the Iran Petroleum Energy Sector List pursuant to Florida Statutes sections 215.473 and 287.135(5), with provisions allowing the DEP to terminate the contract immediately if the Contractor submits false certification or becomes listed on either prohibited list during the contract term.
