Grantees are prohibited from commingling funds on either a program -by -program or a project -by -project basis. Funds specifically budgeted and/or received for one project may not be used to support another project.

The federal funds awarded under this Agreement must comply with The Federal Funding Accountability and Transparency Act (FFATA) of 2006. The intent of the FFATA is to empower every American with the ability to hold the government accountable for each spending decision. The end result is to reduce wasteful spending in the government. The FFATA legislation requires that information on federal awards (federal financial assistance and expenditures) be made available to the public via a single, searchable website, which is www.USASpendin. Grant Recipients awarded a new Federal grant greater than or equal to $25,000 awarded on or after October 1, 2010 are subject to the FFATA. The Grantee agrees to provide the information necessary, over the life of this Agreement, for the Department to comply with this requirement. 42. Each party hereto agrees that it shall be solely responsible for the negligent or wrongful acts of its employees and agents. However, nothing contained herein shall constitute a waiver by either party of its sovereign immunity or the provisions of Section 768.28, Florida Statutes, and other statutes that provide immunity to the Department or the State. 43. A person or affiliate who has been placed on the convicted vendor list following a conviction for public entity crime may not perform work as a grantee, contractor, supplier, subcontractor, or consultant under a contract with any public entity, and may not transact business with any public entity in excess of the Category Two threshold amount provided in s. 287.017, Florida Statutes, for a period of 36 months from the date of being placed on the convicted vendor list. 44.

The Grantee shall include the language of this section, in all subcontracts or lower tier agreements executed to support the Grantee's work under this Project Agreement. 45. This Project Agreement has been delivered in the State of Florida and shall be construed in accordance with the laws of Florida. Wherever possible, each provision of this Project Agreement shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this Project Agreement shall be prohibited or invalid under applicable Florida law, such provision shall be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without DEP 55-239 (9/11) DEP Agreement No LW595, Page 14 of 16 0 0 r u 0 invalidating the remainder of such provision or the remaining provisions of this Project Agreement. Any action hereon or in connection herewith shall be brought in Leon County, Florida unless prohibited by applicable law. 46. No delay or failure to exercise any right, power or remedy accruing to either party upon breach or default by either party under this Project Agreement, shall impair any such right, power or remedy of either party; nor shall such delay or failure be construed as a waiver of any such breach or default, or any similar breach or default thereafter. 47. This Project Agreement is not intended nor shall it be construed as granting any rights, privileges or interest in any third party without mutual written agreement of the parties hereto. 48. The Grantee agrees to comply with, and include as appropriate in contracts and subgrants, the provisions contained in Attachment E, Contract Provisions, attached hereto and made a part hereof.
