ATTACHMENT F-1
REVISED SPECIAL AUDIT REQUIREMENTS
The administration of resources awarded by the Department of Environmental Protection (which may be referred to
as the "Department”, "DEP", "FDEP" or "Grantor", or other name in the contract/agreement) to the recipient
(which may be referred to as the "Contractor”, Grantee" or other name in the contract/agreement) may be subject
to audits and/or monitoring by the Department of Environmental Protection, as described in this attachment.
MONITORING
In addition to reviews of audits conducted in accordance with OMB Circular A-133 and Section 215.97, F.S., as
revised (see “AUDITS” below), monitoring procedures may include, but not be limited to, on-site visits by
Department staff, limited scope audits as defined by OMB Circular A-133, as revised, and/or other procedures. By
entering into this Agreement, the recipient agrees to comply and cooperate with any monitoring
procedures/processes deemed appropriate by the Department of Environmental Protection. In the event the
Department of Environmental Protection determines that a limited scope audit of the recipient is appropriate, the
recipient agrees to comply with any additional instructions provided by the Department to the recipient regarding
such audit. The recipient further agrees to comply and cooperate with any inspections, reviews, investigations, or
audits deemed necessary by the Chief Financial Officer or Auditor General.
AUDITS
PART I: FEDERALLY FUNDED
This part is applicable if the recipient is a State or local government or a non-profit organization as defined in OMB
Circular A-133, as revised.
L. In the event that the recipient expends $500,000 or more in Federal awards in its fiscal year, the recipient
must have a single or program-specific audit conducted in accordance with the provisions of OMB Circular
A-133, as revised. EXHIBIT 1 to this Attachment indicates Federal funds awarded through the Department
of Environmental Protection by this Agreement. In determining the Federal awards expended in its fiscal
year, the recipient shall consider all sources of Federal awards, including Federal resources received from
the Department of Environmental Protection. The determination of amounts of Federal awards expended
should be in accordance with the guidelines established by OMB Circular A-133, as revised. An audit of
the recipient conducted by the Auditor General in accordance with the provisions of OMB Circular A-133,
as revised, will meet the requirements of this part.
2. In connection with the audit requirements addressed in Part I, paragraph 1, the recipient shall fulfill the
requirements relative to auditee responsibilities as provided in Subpart C of OMB Circular A-133, as
revised.
3. If the recipient expends less than $500,000 in Federal awards in its fiscal year, an audit conducted in
accordance with the provisions of OMB Circular A-133, as revised, is not required. In the event that the
recipient expends less than $500,000 in Federal awards in its fiscal year and elects to have an audit
conducted in accordance with the provisions of OMB Circular A-133, as revised, the cost of the audit must
be paid from non-Federal resources (i.e., the cost of such an audit must be paid from recipient resources
obtained from other than Federal entities).
