Jan printed out your e-mail to her & gave it to me.
First, The contract is very similar to the one that was done between County & HFKF, except that the County is not a
party to this one, so there is no reason for me to sign off on it. I would suggest that it be spelled out in Paragraph
6(a) who the "Program Director" is.
Second, the Sept. 18, 2002 agreement between County &HFKF requires in paragraph 13 written approval by the
County of an assignment or sub -contract. This is a sub -contract so you need an item on BOCC agenda approving
same.

entity that succeeds to the obligation of the Department.
XI. The following provisions shall apply for the voluntary and involuntary suspension or termination of the
grant by either the Department or the Grantee:
A. Suspension. Suspension is action taken by the Department which temporarily withdraws or limits
the Grantee's authority to utilize grant assistance pending corrective action by the Grantee as
specified by the Department or pending a decision by the Department to terminate the grant.
Notification. When the Grantee has materially failed to comply with the terms and
conditions of the grant, the Department may suspend the grant after giving the Grantee
reasonable notice (usually 30 calendar days) and an opportunity to show cause why the
grant should not be suspended. The notice of the suspension will detail the reasons for
the suspension, any corrective action required of the Grantee, and the effective date of
the suspension.
Commitments. No commitments of funds incurred by the Grantee during the period of
suspension will be allowed under the suspended grant, unless the Department expressly
authorizes them in the notice of suspension or an amendment to it. Necessary and
otherwise allowable costs which the Grantee could not reasonably avoid during the
suspension period will be allowed if they result from charges properly incurred by the
Grantee before the effective date of the suspension, and not in anticipation of suspension
or termination. Third party contributions applicable to the suspension period shall not be
allowed in satisfaction of matching share requirements, unless otherwise agreed by the
parties.
3. Adjustments to payments. Appropriate adjustments to the payments submitted after the
effective date of suspension under the suspended grant will be made either by
withholding the payments or by not allowing the Grantee credit for disbursements made
in payment of unauthorized costs incurred during the suspension period.
4. Suspension period. Suspensions will remain in effect until the Grantee has taken
corrective action to the satisfaction of the Department or given written evidence
satisfactory to the Department that corrective action will be taken, or until the
Department terminates the grant. The grant shall be terminated by the Department if the
Grantee fails to respond in writing to a notification of suspension within 30 calendar days
of receipt of such notification by the Grantee.
B. Termination. Termination is the cancellation of grant assistance, in whole or in part, under a ;rant
or project at any time prior to the date of completion.
Termination for cause. The Department shall have the authority to cancel this Agreement
because of failure of the Grantee to fulfill its obligations under this Agreement or any other
past or present grant award agreement with this Division or any other Division within the
Department of State. Satisfaction of obligations by the Grantee shall be determined by the
Department. The Department shall provide the Grantee a written notice of default letter. The
Grantee shall have 15 calendar days to cure the default, unless it is determined by the
Department that the default is of a nature that cannot be cured. If the default is not cured by
the Grantee within the stated period, the Department shall terminate this Agreement. Notice
shall be sufficient if it is delivered to the party personally or mailed to its specified address.
In the event of termination of this Agreement, the Grantee will be compensated for any work
satisfactorily completed in accordance with this Agreement prior to notification of
termination.
2. Termination for convenience. The Department or the Grantee may terminate the grant in
whole or in part when both parties agree that the continuation of the Project would not
produce beneficial results commensurate with the further expenditure of funds. The two
parties will agree upon the termination conditions, including the effective date, and in the
case of partial terminations, the portion to be terminated.
3. Termination by Grantee. The Grantee may unilaterally cancel the grant at any time prior to
the first payment on the grant although the Department must be notified in writing prior to
cancellation. After the initial payment, the Project may be terminated, modified, or amended
by the Grantee only by mutual agreement of the Grantee and the Department. Request for
termination prior to completion must fully detail the reasons for the action and the proposed
disposition of the uncompleted work.
4. Commitments. When a grant is terminated, the Grantee will not incur new obligations for the
terminated portion after the notification of the effective date of termination. The Grantee will
cancel as many outstanding obligations as possible. The Department will allow full credit to
the Grantee for the Department's share of the noncancelable obligations properly incurred by
the Grantee prior to termination. Costs incurred after the effective date of the termination will
be disallowed.
XII. Unless there is a change of address, any notice required by this Agreement shall be delivered to the Bureau

ATTACHMENT B
HISTORIC PRESERVATION GRANT-IN-AID PROJECTS
REQUIRED DOCUMENTS FOR SURVEY PROJECTS
Historical and archaeological sunley projects funded with historic preservation grant -in-
aid assistance require the submission of a Final Survey Report, Survey Log Sheet, and Florida
Master Site File forms. This detailed historical information will be kept in the Florida Master
Site File for use by state agencies, corporations, scientists, historians, and the general public.
The Florida Master Site File is the statewide archive for historical and archaeological site
information which is maintained by the Division of Historical Resources.
For all survey projects, a Survey Log Sheet must accompany the Final Survey Report. If
standing structures are recorded, a Historical Structure Form must be completed for each
structure. If archaeological sites are recorded, an Archaeological Site Form must be completed
for each site. Separate forms for Historical Cemeteries, Historical Bridges, Underwater
Archaeological Sites, and Shipwrecks are also available for those resources. Copies of the
Survey Log Sheet and Site File Forms, as well as guides to completing the forms, are available
free of charge from the Florida Master Site File. All of these documents, once completed, are to
be sent to the Grants and Education Section as final products of the grant project. After a review
for completeness and sufficiency, the Grants and Education Section will forward them to the
Florida Master Site File.
For all but the smallest survey projects (those documenting a total of 35 or fewer cultural
resources), the Division of Historical Resources is requiring the use of the electronic data entry
program SmartForm. SmartForm is user-friendly, running on IBM-PC compatible computers of
at least the 486 class (including 80486, Pentium, and Pentium Pro), and printing with most .
combinations of printer and recent word processor. The SmartForm package is free of charge
from the Florida Master Site File, and includes (1) a diskette with SmartForm program, an
installation program, example electronic forms, and SmartForm manual ready to be printed; (2)
and an optional paper copy of the manual.
A package of documents relating to survey projects is also available free of charge from
the Florida Master Site File. These include general guidelines for Site File users, guidelines for
packaging documents produced by survey projects in order to send them to the Site File, and a
form requesting assignment and confirmation of Site File numbers.
For information, contact the Florida Master Site File by one of the means below. Several
of the Site File forms and documents are also available on the World Wide Web and can be
downloaded as a Microsoft Word for Windows file.
