5. SCOPE OF WORK:
If the amount of the grant award matches the project application the Application Schedule of Activities
shall apply. If the grant amount was modified by the award committee, the Grantee shall deliver to EFI a
Schedule of Activities in which is described each activity to be performed by the Grantee under this
Agreement (individually, an “Activity”; collectively, the “Activities”) within sixty (60) days after the date this
Agreement is executed by both parties. These Activities shall support the purpose of this grant. The
purpose of the grant is, “Shoal River Military Installation Buffering Project.”
Upon EFI’s receipt and approval of the schedule, the schedule will be attached hereto as Exhibit B (the
“Schedule of Activities”). The Grantee shall perform and accomplish each Activity set forth in the
Schedule of Activities on or before the respective due date of such Activity indicated therein. The
Schedule of Activities at any time in effect may be revised from time to time for the purpose of this grant in
accordance with the following procedures:

b. Within thirty (30) days after receiving any such Proposed Schedule, EFI shall notify the
Grantee of its decision, in EFI’s absolute discretion, either to adopt the Proposed Schedule or not
to adopt the Proposed Schedule. If in its absolute discretion EFI adopts the Proposed Schedule
as submitted by the Grantee, it shall notify the Grantee in writing of its decision and from the date
Page 2 of 13
of such notice the Proposed Schedule shall become the Schedule of Activities under this
Agreement and shall be attached to this Agreement as a REVISED Schedule of Activities. If in its
absolute discretion EFI elects not to adopt the Proposed Schedule, or if EFI fails to give Grantee
written notice within such thirty (30) day period, the current Schedule of Activities shall continue to
be the Schedule of Activities.
c. The Schedule of Activities and any Proposed Schedule may incorporate by reference the
Activities indicated on a work plan, schedule, or other document prepared by the Grantee or any
other person or entity, provided that it contains the information required by this Paragraph 5.
d. The state expects no more than a three year execution term; grantees will have three
years from the date of the contract execution to complete their project. Contract term extensions
will be evaluated on a case by case basis.

conducted in accordance with the provisions of the Single Audit Act is not required. In the event
that Grantee expends less than $500,000 in State financial assistance in its fiscal year and elects
to have an audit conducted in accordance with the provisions of the Single Audit Act, the cost of
the audit must be paid from non-State funds (i.e., the cost of such an audit must be paid from
Grantee funds obtained from other than State entities).
4. Grantee must include the record keeping requirements found herein in sub-recipient contracts
and subcontracts entered into by Grantee for work required under terms of this Agreement. In
the executed subcontract, Grantee shall provide each sub-recipient of state financial assistance
the information needed by the sub-recipient to comply with the requirements of the Single Audit
Act. Pursuant to Section 215.97(7), Florida Statutes, Grantee shall review and monitor sub-
recipient audit reports and perform other procedures as specified in the agreement with the sub-
recipient, which may include onsite visits. Grantee shall require sub-recipients, as a condition of
receiving state financial assistance, to permit the independent auditor of the recipient, the
awarding agency, the Chief Financial Officer, the Chief Inspector General, and the Auditor
General access to the sub-recipient’s records and independent auditor’s working papers as
necessary to comply with the requirements of the Single Audit Act.
