will be placed on the deployment vessel. The COMMISSION will approve all materials prior
to deployment.
i. Minimum Level of Performance
Each artificial reef must be deployed within the boundaries of the permitted area, at
the approximate center point of each permit area and in compliance with all the
applicable permits and authorizations associated with the permitted area. The
minimum acceptable level of performance is the placement of two patch reefs of
approximately equal size composed of inspected COMMISSION and GRANTEE
approved pre-cast concrete culvert and steel reinforced concrete manholes and beams
or concrete and steel target material deployed at the center points of two Okaloosa
County Fish Haven permitted artificial reef locations (FH 15 and16) in accordance
with the specifications in this Agreement. The patch reef footprint and vertical relief
of the tightly stacked material deployed from a double anchored vessel will depend
upon the maximum tonnage of reef material that can be transported and deployed with
total funding not to exceed $60,000 provided by the COMMISSION and $67,000
provided by the GRANTEE.
ii. Documentation / Criteria Used as Evidence of Performance
1. A Materials Placement Report shall be submitted to the COMMISSION's
Project Manager within 30 days of field operations completion. The Materials
Placement Report form is available on the COMMISSION’s website at
http://www.myfwc.com/conservation/saltwater/artificial-reefs/. The Materials
Placement Report must have a certification signature and reflect an accurate
material tonnage for the reef deployed as well as a detailed description of the
type, number, dimensions and overall tonnage of the various sizes of reef
materials deployed. This information may be submitted on the materials
placement report in lieu of taking loaded and unloaded barge measurements.
If accurate individual weights of concrete units cannot be obtained or are not
known, barge displacement measurements are required. The GRANTEE's
Project Manager or GRANTEE’s designee shall then record the waterline
length, width and draft (to the nearest inch) of the loaded barge at all four (4)

corners to calculate the average displacement of water due to the weight of the
artificial reef materials. The same barge measurements must be taken by either
the GRANTEE's Project Manager or GRANTEE’s designee when the barge
returns to shore after the deployment has been completed. These
measurements may not be taken while the barge is offshore at the deployment
site. The barge measurements are to be included in the Materials Placement
Report.
2. A final field report providing the designated observer's narrative, for each day
of the reef deployment operations, is required prior to reimbursement. The
field report shall include a written chronology and narrative describing details
of the deployment, and a performance evaluation of the marine contractors
who performed the work. The final field report should include photos of the
material and loaded barge prior to each deployment and, if available,
underwater photographs and video footage (surface and/or underwater).
iii. Timeline for Completion
All artificial reef construction must be completed by December 31,2016. Advance
planning that avoids dependence on a favorable weather window during the final weeks
of the project is strongly encouraged. All requests for bid packages from the
GRANTEE to potential contractors must include language that specifies a completion
date that ensures all materials will be in the water by December 31, 2016. Subcontracts
with completion dates significantly earlier than December 31, 2016 to provide an
additional buffer are strongly encouraged.
FINANCIAL CONSEQUENCES
B. If the GRANTEE fails to complete construction within the time frame specified by the Scope
of Work, the budget amount allocated for that portion of the construction project deliverable
not yet completed at the expiration of the Agreement will be deducted from the GRANTEE’s
payment.
C. The GRANTEE will not be eligible for reimbursement until all reports have been provided
to the satisfaction of the COMMISSION documenting that all work has been completed in
accordance with the Scope of Work, and in compliance with all permit conditions.
3. PERFORMANCE
A. Written or electronically transmitted progress reports must be sent to the COMMISSION's
Contract Manager at no less than 60 day intervals beginning from the date of execution of this
agreement.
B. The GRANTEE agrees to provide the COMMISSION with a minimum of five (5) days
notice for any artificial reef construction that occurs as a result of this Agreement.
