Any changes to the specifications herein will be made in the form of an Addendum to this

2. PROJECT FUNDING AND REQUIREMENTS
The equipment covered by this Invitation to Bid was destroyed by Potential Tropical
Cyclone #8 (“PTC #8”), which significantly impacted Brunswick County in mid-September
2024. Brunswick County anticipates receiving funding from the Federal Emergency
Management Agency (“FEMA”) as reimbursement to replace the equipment that was
destroyed. The County expects to receive $837,718.70 from FEMA to replace the
aforementioned equipment. Said funding is expected to be a 100% reimbursement of the
replacement costs of the equipment, based on a cost or price analysis performed by the
County, less insurance proceeds in the amount of $1,001,552.30 received by the County. In
using such FEMA funds, the County must comply with FEMA’s terms and conditions
governing the expenditure of the funds. The County must also comply with the Uniform
Administrative Requirements, Cost Principles, and Audit Requirements for Federal Awards,
2 C.F.R. Part 200, and other such provisions as FEMA has determined or may determine
are applicable, including, without limitation, those contained in the FEMA Contract
Provisions Guide.
In accordance with the foregoing requirements, bidders interested in being considered for
this project must agree to strictly adhere to all terms and conditions contained herein,
including the Goods and Services Agreement, and all FEMA terms and conditions, as may
be amended from time to time by FEMA. Bidders not agreeing to all terms and conditions
