SUBJECT: Derelict Vessel 3575
On October 16,2001 Mr. Ron Norman from 400 Hazel St. Mile Marker 112 in Key
Largo, telephone number (305)453-5288, contacted Ms, Kim McGee. in reference an emergency
removal for this vessel. Kim McGee contacted us t.o do the report, All the information I found is
attached, The only thing I was unable to record was the current vessel owner which is deceased '
according to Mr. Norman. The last register owner is a 71 year old female, see print-out attached.
Apparently the vessel title was never transferred to the deceased, I don't think we want to go
after the 71 year old female, it is not good politics. There are no relatives or state for the
deceased. The neighbors took the vessel under care to prevent it from sinking and becoming a
nuisance. They do not know what to do with the vessel. They need the vessel removed as soon as
possible. There is a bilge pump attached to a battery and the battery is attached to a battery
charger connected by electrical extension to an AC receptacle on land. The vessel has no
apparent intrinsic value and was built in 1936. The wood hull is old, rotted and partially
dismantled.
I'm going to be out of town for a long time reference training then annual leave. I'll appreciated
if you work your magic to get this vessel removed and disposed as an emergency removal.
Thank you for the assistance in this matter.
EXHIBIT B
DERELICT VESSEL REMOVAL CONTRACT SPECIFICATIONS
FOR MONROE COUNTY, FLORIDA
1. INTENT: It is intended that these specifications shall cover all aspects of the work.
The purpose of this section is to provide specific conditions applicable to this
contract where such coverage is not provided in other portions of the documents.
2. BID FORMAT: A dollar amount per foot must be submitted for the removal of as
many derelict vessels on the primary list for which a Florida Marine Patrol Derelict
Vessel Report is provided and as funding will allow. Any deviation from this
format will result in an unaccented bid. A contract will not be granted on the basis
of combined, related, linked, or discounted bids. Not applicable due to emergency
removal of one or more derelict vessels for less than $25,000 total.
3. PLANS: There are no plans for this project, but copies of the Florida Marine
Patrol Derelict Vessel Report with location sketches have been bound into these
documents for the Contractor's use. The Specifications include a section on
instructions to bidders, both general and specific, and a copy of each Derelict
Vessel Report from the Florida Marine Patrol. Only those derelict vessels for
which a report is included and listed on the Bid Response Form are to be bid upon
and subsequently removed.
The County reserves the right to remove any or all vessels from this contract at any
time prior to actual removal from the water and disposal by the Contractor.
The County has a limited amount of money to effect the removal of these derelict
vessels. We have established priorities based on public safety, navigational hazard,
and environmental considerations. Ifbids exceed the County's resources for
removal based on these considerations, we shall limit vessel removal based on the
considerations and cost effectiveness.
4. VESSEL IDENTIFICATION AND LOCATION: Each of the vessels have been
given a derelict vessel identification number, which is shown with the location in
the Florida Marine Patrol Derelict Vessel Report, included herewith.
Each bidder is responsible for his own identification of each derelict vessel as to
location, description and condition. If a derelict vessel cannot be (1) located, (2)
removed, (3) verified and (4) disposed of, as specified in these procedures, then no
payment will be made forthcoming to the Contractor for that vessel. Those four
conditions must be met on each derelict vessel along with compliance of all laws
for payment to be made.
It is understood that the Contractor has, by personal examination and inquiry, if
necessary, satisfied himself as to local conditions of each derelict vessel and as to
the meaning, requirements and reservations of the specifications; for after contract
letting, no deviation will be allowed. In case errors are discovered, they are
to be reported by the Contractor to the County. The county assumes no
responsibility should there be any discrepancies in what is stated in these
documents and what the bidder evaluates.
The Contractor should take special care to remove only those derelict vessel's on
his Contract and for which he possesses a Florida Marine Patrol Derelict Vessel
Report. Other derelict vessels in the area but not under Contract, cannot be
molested.
It may be possible to replace a derelict vessel of like kind, for the same or less
money, when mutual agreement can be reached by the Florida Department or
Environmental Protection, Monroe County Administrator of the Derelict Vessel
Program, and the Contractor. This will be applicable when a contracted derelict
vessel cannot be located. No derelict vessel may be replaced and removed' without
the tri-party consent noted in this paragraph. A contractor may suggest a possible
replacement vessel but he may not remove it without the appropriate consent above.
5. SCOPE OF WORK: The Contractor shall be responsible for providing all permits,
supervision, labor, equipment, tools, fees and taxes required to complete this
project to the satisfaction of the County.
The Contractor's procedure and methods of removal may be of his own selection
provided they secure results which satisfy the requirements of the Specifications
and any necessary environmental permits.
Any vessel which is removed and disposed of shall be removed from its present site
in such a manner as to do the least possible damage to the natural environment.
All debris from the vessel shall be removed and the site left in a reasonably clean
condition. No oil or fuel shall be permitted to be dumped or spilled into or unto the
water or land. All pollutants shall be removed from the derelict vessel prior to
removal from the water.
The Contractor shall be responsible for making any and all arrangement for access
to the vessel to be removed. If private property has to be traversed, then written
permission of the owner is necessary. In removing a derelict vessel that may lie on
or near grass or sponge flats extreme caution must be used to do the least possible
damage.
2
The Contractor is fully responsible to the County for the acts and omissions of his
subcontractors and of persons either directly or indirectly employed by said
subcontractor, as he is for the acts and omissions of persons directly employed by
him. Nothing contained in the relation between any subcontractors shall abide by
the terms, conditions, and requirements of this Contract. It is the responsibility of
the Contractor to pay all debt obligations incurred with subcontractors in an
expedient manner.
8. LEGAL RESTRICTIONS, PERMITS AND TRAFFIC PROVISIONS: The
Contractor shall comply with all applicable local, State and Federal requirements
pertaining to the terms of this Contract. The Contractor will be responsible for
obtaining, at his own expense, any licenses or permits that may be required and
should inquire about permit requirements with the appropriate agencies. The
Contractor shall comply with all the requirements of the Federal Pollution Control
Act.
The Contractor shall conduct his operations so that he shall not close any
thoroughfare nor interfere in any way with traffic on highways, or on water,
without the written consent of the proper authorities. Work shall be done at any
time that shall not interrupt or disturb members of the public. .
Utilization of off-loading sites located on private property (water to land for
transport to the landfill or other disposal site by vehicle) must have written
approval of the land owner.
The Florida Marine Patrol should be contacted to initiate eviction proceedings for
contracted derelict vessels which are inhabited at the time of removal and when
another vessel is too close to the contracted derelict vessel to allow safe operations.
Direct confrontations with other boaters should be avoided and the Florida Marine
Patrol should be contacted immediately if such confrontations results from removal
of any contracted derelict vessels.

except for the Worker's Compensation policy.
10. COMMENCEMENT, DELA YS AND COMPLETION OF WORK.: After
receiving Board of County Commission approval of the Contract, and after
reconciliation of any details or conditions which may directly or indirectly interfere
or conflict with work of the Contract, the County will issue a "Notice to Proceed"
officially authorizing the Contractor to commence. The Gontractor shall
commence work within one week from the date on the ''Notice to Proceed" letter.
If the Contractor should be delayed in the progress of the work included in the
Contract by enforceable causes beyond his control, the time for the completion of
the work may be extended upon agreement of the County representative. Requests
for an extension of time must be submitted in writing to the County representative.
Extensions of time cannot legally be approved unless the written request is
submitted in the time to permit it to be acted upon before the Contract expiration
date. To allow sufficient time for the administrative procedures required to obtain
action by the County Commission, a request for time extension must be received by
the County representative at least sixty (60) calendar days prior to the Contract
expiration date.
5
Provided further that the Contractor shall within ten (10) days from the beginning
of such delay notify the County, in writing, of the causes of the delay. The County
representative will ascertain the facts and the extent of the delay and notify the
Contractor within a reasonable time of her decision in the matter.
If the Contractor fails to complete the work within the time limit, and if the County
should nevertheless permit the Contractor to continue and complete the same
without official extension of time in writing, such permission shall not modify nor
waive any liability of the Contractor for damages arriving non-completion of work
within the time limit, but such liabilities shall be subject to continuation in full
force against the contractor.
11. CHANGES AND INSPECTION: The vessels herein considered are to be removed
for the County by the Contractor in accordance with the specifications. The County
may give instructions or directions to supplement the specifications. These shall be
binding upon the Contractor and upon all his subcontractors, employees and agents
of every kind.
All work and every process and operation shall be subject to inspection at all
times, and the County and their representatives shall have free access to all aspects
of the work. The Contractor shall remove and make good, as may be directed,
without charge, any defective work. Oversight or error of judgment of
inspections, or previous acceptance, shall not relieve the Contractor from the
obligation to make good any defect whenever discovered.
,
The right is reserved to change the Specifications consistent with regard to the
general intention of the contract for any part of the work or materials, either before
or after work has begun. Notice of such changes shall be given in writing to the
Contractor; such changes are not to be grounds for any claim by the Contractor for
damages, nor for the forfeiture of the Contract. It is possible that a Derelict Vessel
could disappear between the time of inspection by the contractor and the actual
effort to remove it. No payment will be forthcoming in event that this occurs.
Except when otherwise specified, the expense of all tests requested by the County
will be borne by the County.
12. AUDIT RIGHTS: As a provision of the grant from the State of Florida to the
County, and if so requested by the State, the successful bidder agrees to provide
access to all records and allow the audit of any books, documents and papers
related to this project for a period of up to one year and during and after termination
of the contract. '
13. CONTRACT AWARD: The County reserves the right to evaluate the submitted
bids and award a contract to the bidder submitting the lowest per foot bid for the
derelict vessels listed in the bid package as one project and for which a
6
Florida Marine Patrol Derelict Vessel Report is included. One bid will be accepted
and a Contract issued for the total removal of all listed derelict vessels as one
project, up to the limit of available funds.
The actual number of vessels to be removed will depend on the accepted per foot
bid price and the available funds.
14. PREWORK. CONFERENCE: A meeting will be necessary involving a
representative of the County, the Contractor and other parties with direct
involvement prior to the signing of the Contract. The time and place of this
conference will be set by the County representative. At this time the Contractor
shall provide the County with a schedule as to the order in which he proposes to
remove the vessels awarded to him.
15. CONTRACT SECURITY: The Contractor is expected to act and deliver in good
faith all work, at the agreed price, in the allowed time. Failure to do so, could
jeopardize the contractor's reputation with the County and potentially influence any
future contracts with MONROE County.
16. EXECUTION OF CONTRACT DOCUMENT: Due to the time frame involved
with this project, the Contractor upon notification that he is to be awarded the
contract documents for execution, shall return said documents properly executed
along with insurance within TEN WORKING DAYS. This will assist in
acceleration of execution of the contract documents.
The Contractor, by virtue of signing the Contract, acknowledges that he and all his
subcontractors have satisfied themselves as to the nature and location of the work,
the general and local conditions, including, but not restricted to, those bearing upon
transportation, handling, access to the pick-up and disposal sites; and the character
of equipment and facilities needed to perform the work. Failure on the part of the
Contractor to completely or properly evaluate any factors of his costs prior to
bidding shall not form a basis for additional compensation ifhe is awarded the
Contract.
If for any reasons, not acceptable to the County, the Contractor does not perform,
the County shall have the right to levy liquidated damages against the Contractor.
Liquidated damages in the amount of $1 00 per day shall be assessed against the
Contractor for any bid item awarded to him which is not completed and accepted
by the County within the number of calendar days specified in the Contract.
Liquidated damages are accumulative.
17. NOTICE TO PROCEED: The Contractor shall commence work upon this project
within one week of the date of the Notice to Proceed letter and perform in a
continuous manner until completion and acceptance by the County. For Contracts
7
wherein a specified number of days for completion is stated in the Contract, the
effective date of the "Notice to Proceed with Contract Work" will establish the
"beginning date" of the project.
18. TERMINATION OF CONTRACT: This Contract may be terminated by the
County, giving up to ten (10) days written notice to the Contractor; said notice
shall be sufficient if delivered to the party personally or mailed by certified mail to
his mailing address as specified on the accepted bid.
19. FINAL CLEAN-UP: Upon completion of the work specified herein and before
acceptance and final payment shall be made, the Contractor shall remove from the
sites all machinery, equipment, surplus and discarded materials and temporary
structures. The disposal of materials, rubbish and debris shall be made at a legal
disposal site.
20. DISPOSAL SITES AND FEES: The Contractor is responsible for disposal of all
derelict vessels included in this contract and must make arrangements for legal
disposal. It is the responsibility of the Contractor to pay all disposal fees
incurred, and such removal related costs should be considered when bidding on this
contract. .
The Contractor will deliver the derelict vessels to a Florida Department of
Environmental Protection permitted disposal site that has current occupational tax
licenses. It is the intent of this contract to remove derelict vessels from their
present site and legally dispose of them. Upon receipt of vessels at the landfill,
they must be disposed of immediately.
There are several Monroe County disposal sites, Cudjoe Landfill, MM 21.5
(vessels must be 26' and under to be delivered in tact, over 26' they must be
broken up), Long Key Landfill MM 68, and Card Sound Road AKA SR905 other
landfills in neighboring countries or any other location for disposal as long as the
site is a legal licensed disposal site. Prior to transportation of vessels out of
County the County representative must approve. Vessels being disposed of at
County Landfill sites must be free of pollutants and engines.
21. PROOF OF PROPER DISPOSAL AND NOTIFICATION TO MARINE
PATROL: Contractor must submit prior to receiving any payment: A receipt for

should provide detailed receipt showing type and description of debris received.
In addition to the above information, Contractor must submit three pictures of
each vessel removed. The first photograph must be of the vessel at the current
location prior to removal, the second photograph must be of the vessel after
removal but in the same general area preferably while in tow, and the third
8
photograph must be of the vessel at the disposal site with sufficient background to
depict disposal (Le., building or sign identifying disposal site). The derelict
vessel number, when possible, must appear in all photographs.
The Contractor will be responsible for the camera, film, and development costs.
The photographs should be taken with a Polaroid camera that provides instant
photos since this minimizes loss of documentation due to camera malfunction or
loss overboard. This photos must be submitted on a vessel by to document the
