Re: 2005 Hurricanes: FHW A Emergency ReHef Program Agreements; Execution Notice and Invoicing Instnlctions
Dear Mr. Leonard:
Enclosed for the City of Miami Beach's (City's) records is one (1) original Emergency Relief Program Agreement (Agreement) for
reimbursement of emergency repair costs incurred by the City as a result of the 2005 Hurricane Season. This Agreement was
executed by the Florida Department of Transportation (Department) on April 21, 2006. A second original Agreement was sent under
separate cover to Ms. Kerry Hernandez, City Clerk's Office.
The City may now invoice the Department for reimbursement under the FHW A Emergency Relief Program. Invoices for emergency
repairs must be accompanied by supporting documentation, including: man hours, overtime hours, tipping fees, equipment usage,
photos of damage, cost summaries, copies of contractor's contracts, FEMA Category A Worksheets, etc. Expenses incurred prior to
the landfall of each respective hurricane are ineligible for reimbursement. Invoices in excess of your authorized DDIR estimates will
be rejected by the Department and forwarded to FHW A for review. If approved, the Department would then send the City a revised
Emergency Relief Program Agreement covering the difference. Please separate invoices by hurricane and further subdivide hurricane
invoices by category of work (DDIR I Financial Project Number). You may transmit hurricane invoices all at once or under separate
cover, at the City's discretion. Forward all materials to:
Florida Department of Transportation
Attn: Kenneth Robertson, JP A Coordinator

or concerns, please feel free to contact me at (305) 470-5452.
