B. Upon the Department's notice of acceptance of a proposed CAP, the <br />Grantee shall have ten (10) calendar days to commence implementation of <br />the accepted plan. Acceptance of the proposed CAP by the Department <br />does not relieve the Grantee of any of its obligations under this Project <br />Agreement. In the event the approved CAP fails to correct or eliminate <br />performance deficiencies by the Grantee, the Department shall retain the <br />right to require additional or further remedial steps, or to terminate this <br />Agreement for failure to perform. No actions approved by the Department or <br />steps taken by the Grantee shall serve to estop the Department from <br />subsequently asserting any deficiencies in performance. The Grantee shall <br />continue to implement the CAP until all deficiencies are corrected. Reports <br />on the progress of the CAP will be provided to the Department as requested <br />by the Department's Grant Manager. If a satisfactory deliverable is not <br />submitted within the timeframe specified in the approved CAP, the <br />Department may, in its sole discretion, terminate this Project Agreement for <br />failure of the Grantee to perform. The approved CAP shall be hereby <br />incorporated into this Project Agreement by this reference and upon the <br />Department's approval. <br />C. Failure to respond to a Department request for a CAP may result in <br />termination of this Project Agreement. <br />The remedies set forth above are not exclusive and the Department reserves the <br />right to exercise other remedies in addition to or in lieu of those set forth above, as <br />permitted by this Project Agreement. <br />27. The Department shall have the right to demand a refund, either in whole or in part, <br />of the funds provided to the Grantee for noncompliance with the terms of this <br />Project Agreement. <br />28. If the United States acting within the scope of its lawful authority, through the <br />FHWA, the Secretary of the FHWA, or any other branch of the government of the <br />United States, should for any reason demand a refund from the Department, in <br />whole or in part, of the funds provided to the Grantee under the terms of this Project <br />Agreement, the Grantee, upon notification from the Department, agrees to refund <br />and will forthwith repay directly to the Department the amount of money demanded. <br />29. The State of Florida's performance and obligation to pay under this Project <br />Agreement is contingent upon an annual appropriation by the Legislature. The <br />parties hereto understand that this Agreement is not a commitment of future <br />appropriations. <br />30. Expenses, representing the Grant amount and the required match, shall be reported <br />to the Department and summarized on certification forms referenced in Chapter <br />62S-2, F.A.C. The Grantee shall maintain books, records and documents directly <br />pertinent to performance under this Project Agreement in accordance with generally <br />Revised 06/14 <br />DEP Project Agreement No. T1435, Page 10 of 18 <br />
