The proposed rule amendment replaces the Florida Boating Improvement Program Guidelines (01/2010) and the accompanying application forms, incorporated by reference, with the Florida Boating Improvement Program Guidelines (02/2012). Proposed changes to the guidelines include the following: 1) revised evaluation criteria to increase the emphasis on cost efficiency and the need for the project; 2) reduce the number of required copies of the application; 3) provide more time to obtain permits for construction projects; 4) change match requirements to cost share; 5) include compliance requirements regarding contingency fees and employment eligibility.
