set forth in Franchisee's justification for rate adjustment. The Franchisee and the Board <br />acknowledge and agree that: (i) this Third Amendment shall be approved following a duly - <br />noticed public hearing, as required by the former section 12.3 of the Agreement; (ii) the <br />public hearing was required by the adjustment in calculation of the CPI and Fuel charge; <br />and (iii) due to the changes made to the Agreement by this Third Amendment, no public <br />hearing is required for any future Collection Rate Adjustments as contemplated in this <br />Third Amendment. <br />20. From and after the effective date of this Third Amendment, the existing <br />Sections 13.17.2 and 13.18 of the Agreement deleted in their entirety and replaced with <br />the following: <br />13.17.2. Rapid Recovery from Disaster. The clean-up from some natural disasters <br />may require that the Franchisee hire additional equipment, employ additional personnel, or <br />work existing personnel on overtime hours to clean debris resulting from the natural disaster. <br />The Franchisee acknowledges that the County has entered into one or more stand-by <br />contracts for debris removal in the event of a natural disaster or Uncontrollable Force. <br />Therefore, there is no guarantee that Franchisee will be authorized to provide such clean-up <br />services. The Franchisee shall not receive any extra compensation (ie., above the normal <br />compensation provided in this Agreement) to recover the costs of rental equipment, <br />additional personnel, overtime hours, or other expenses unless the Franrhisee has received <br />written authorization and approval from the County Administrator acting as the Indian River <br />County Emergency Services District Director, or designee, prior to such work being <br />performed, and promptly thereafter entered into a written Emergency Contract Memorandum <br />Of Understanding Supplemental to Franchise Agreement signed by the Indian River County <br />Administrator, acting as the Indian River County Emergency Services District Director and the <br />Franchisee. Any and all such costs shall be audited by the County or the District prior to <br />payment. <br />13.18. Disaster Response Plan. The Franchisee shall develop and provide to the County <br />a written disaster preparedness and response plan by March 31 of each year ("Disaster <br />Plan'). This Disaster Plan shall include provisions for additional personnel and equipment, <br />and shall establish a reasonable, verifiable basis for any charges associated therewith. <br />The District shall coordinate with Franchisee if a disaster should require, temporary closure, <br />or modification to the hours of operation of the District Landfill. In the event that excess <br />work resulting from a natural disaster ("Disaster Work') is compensable by the Federal <br />Emergency Management Agency ("FEMA'), any such compensation to the Franchisee <br />shall be subject to FEMA's prior approval pursuant to FEMA requirements. In the event <br />that excess work resulting from a natural disaster ("Disaster Work') is compensable by <br />any other local, state, or federal agency, any such compensation to the Franchisee shall <br />be subject to such agency's prior approval, as set forth in section 13.17.2. The Franchisee <br />shall be familiar with FEMA documentation requirements, including, without limiting the <br />generality of the foregoing, rules, regulations, and guidelines applicable to FEMA's Public <br />Assistance Program for Debris Removal, as such requirements change from time to time. <br />Franchisee shall maintain complete and accurate records of any and all such Disaster <br />Work and provide all required and necessary documentation for submission of cost <br />reimbursement requests. The Franchisee shall be required to submit its FEMA <br />documentation of costs to the District as a condition of payment for additional personnel <br />and equipment pursuant to this section. <br />ILI <br />
