This document is a Task Assignment Change Order Form for DEP Contract No. WM943, involving the University of Florida as the contractor and the Florida Department of Environmental Protection (FDEP) as the contracting agency. The change order modifies Task Assignment No. 3, with Devan R. Cobb serving as the DEP Contract Manager and Curtis D. Pollman, Ph.D. as the Contractor Contract Manager.

The change order extends the project completion date from August 1, 2010 to October 1, 2010, and increases the task budget from $21,615 to $28,006, representing a $6,391 increase. The scope of work involves conducting explicit modeling of dissolved oxygen dynamics on impairment, using data from the FDEP dissolved oxygen intensive study at 165 stream sites. The expanded task includes investigating temperature as a source of impairment, examining outliers, exploring factors contributing to impairment categories, and developing a conceptual model to predict relationships between stream stressor indices and causative variables. The project involves multiple deliverables with due dates ranging from 3/24/10 to 10/1/10, including meetings with FDEP, model development, and final reporting.
