COST REIMBURSEMENT CONTRACT PAYMENT REQUIREMENTS
.2
Pursuant to the February, 2011 Reference Guide for State Expenditures published by the Department of Financial y
Services, invoices for cost reimbursement contracts must be supported by an itemized listing of expenditures by
category (salary, travel, expenses, etc.). In addition, supporting documentation must be provided for each amount
for which reimbursement is being claimed indicating that the item has been paid. Check numbers may be
provided in lieu of copies of actual checks. Each piece of documentation should clearly reflect the dates of
service. Only expenditures for categories in the approved Contract budget should be reimbursed.
Listed below are examples of types of supporting documentation:
0
(1) Salaries: A payroll register or similar documentation should be submitted. The payroll register should
show gross salary charges, fringe benefits, other deductions and net pay. If an individual for whom
reimbursement is being claimed is paid by the hour, a document reflecting the hours worked times the rate of =
pay will be acceptable.
(2) Fringe Benefits: Fringe Benefits should be supported by invoices showing the amount paid on behalf of
the employee (e.g., insurance premiums paid). If the contract specifically states that fringe benefits will be y
based on a specified percentage rather than the actual cost of fringe benefits,then the calculation for the fringe
benefits amount must be shown.
2
0
Exception: Governmental entities are not required to provide check numbers or copies of checks for fringe LL
benefits. m
(3) Travel: Reimbursement for travel must be in accordance with Section 112.061, Florida Statutes, which

property is purchased using State funds,the contract should include a provision for the transfer of the property
to the State when services are terminated. Documentation must be provided to show compliance with
Department of Management Services Rule 60A-1.017, Florida Administrative Code, regarding the
requirements for contracts which include services and that provide for the contractor to purchase tangible y
personal property as defined in Section 273.02,Florida Statutes,for subsequent transfer to the State.
(5) In-house charges: Charges which may be of an internal nature (e.g., postage, copies, etc.) may be
reimbursed on a usage log which shows the units time the rate being charged.The rates must be reasonable.
(6) Indirect costs: If the contract specifies that indirect costs will be paid based on a specified rate, then the
calculation should be shown.
Contracts between state agencies may submit alternative documentation to substantiate the reimbursement request
that may be in the form of FLAIR reports or other detailed reports. Additionally, the invoice or submitted
documentation must evidence the completion of all tasks required to be performed for the deliverable and must `V
show that the provider met the minimum performance standards established in the agreement.
The site management agency authorizes FWC Invasive Plant Management staff to approve invoice payments of all cc
funds encumbered under this Task Assignment.Payment will be approved only for that work approved by the FWC
Site Manager.A copy of the approved invoice will be forwarded to the site management agency upon request.

The Three Points Rule
To ensure that the selected Contractor provides the best service to public conservation land managers,the Commission
has instituted a "Three Points Rule." Failure to fulfill the responsibilities below shall subject the Contractor to an o
assessment of points as set forth in this RFP and FWC RFP 13/14-94.An accrual of three points shall cause the Contractor
to be ineligible to participate on any quote or project under any Commission Upland Invasive Plant Control Services
contract for one calendar year after accrual of the third point.If the infraction is caused by the Contractors'subcontractor,
points will be accessed against both parties. If the Contractor has responsibilities for treatment or re-treatments
remaining at the time they are pointed out, failure to fulfill those requirements would be grounds for termination rather
than suspension unless otherwise stated by the Commission. Each point assessed will affect a contractor's eligibility for
three years from the date it was assessed. Upon completion of one year of ineligibility, the Contractor's points reset to
zero.Use of the"three points rule"does not preclude the Commission from exercising its rights to terminate for default or
convenience.

RESPONSIBILITIES OF THE SITE MANAGER
1. The Site Manager shall attend the "pre-quote meeting"for their project(s) to ensure that Contractors have sufficient TL
information about the project area,targeted species,and site conditions in order to provide a reliable quote for the work CCND
to be conducted.
To assist the Site Manager in preparing for a pre-quote meeting on their property, FWC has created the "Site Manager
Checklist."
2. The Site Manager shall be responsible for informing the awarded Contractor about timing of the treatment(s),
conflicting scheduled events, and current site conditions that may affect completion of the contracted work. The
Contractor is not responsible for any changes to the work specifications that have not been approved by FWC.

decontamination plan. If the Site Manager requires a plan, it shall be the responsibility of the Site Manager to inspect all 01
equipment prior to work commencing on the first day at the project site, on any occasion that the equipment leaves the
project site,and any time during the course of the control operation. o
4.The Site Manager shall monitor the activities of the Contractor and thus reserves the right to inspect, at any time,the
Contractor's procedure, spray systems, spray solutions, and other ancillary equipment, and to approve or disapprove U

responsibilities nor shall it transfer any liability to the land listed as"Project Location"in the Scope of Work or to FWC.
S. Before signing the Weekly Progress Report(s), the Site Manager shall verify that the content of the WPR(s) and GPS
tracks reflect control operations observed in the field and described in the approved Scope of Work.

Specifications
STANDARD Work Specifications
Contractor shall begin treatment where directed by the Site Manager and shall proceed in a systematic manner acro�
contiguous areas to ensure 100% of target vegetation is treated. Contractor will treat each target species by the m(
effective method, such as basal bark or cut stump for trees and shrubs, and foliar for ferns, vines, and grasses. Sma
seedlings/saplings may be hand-pulled and bagged, or hung on branches of surrounding trees. Pulled seedlings/sapl >
should never be left on the ground. Climbing ferns and vines over six feet tall should be treated by the "poodle-cut"
method. When girdling trees that are to be left standing, unless directed otherwise in writing, the girdling cuts may
be done in such a manner that structurally weakens the tree. Contractor shall follow all label directions for applied
herbicides. The label is the law. All herbicide mixes should contain the adjuvant(s) necessary to ensure an effective
treatment. A marker dye should be included in all tank mixes. Contractor shall be liable for unacceptable non-target y
damage to native plant species. Disposal of plant material will be in accordance with the SOW, which may include o " :e
dumping and tipping fees. Contractor shall supply all transportation, chemicals, labor, and equipment necessary to
accomplish the work assigned, unless otherwise stated in the SOW (e.g., chemicals may be provided to Contractor). r-

or leaving the project area to ensure that no propagules or reproductive materials are transported between treatmer
sites or managed areas. If the project specifications include 2 treatments of grasses, the second treatment may not

regrowth is at least 60% of the total expected leaf blade length.
