H. CHANGES IN PROJECT DESCRIPTION AND CONTRACT: <br /> The Grantee shall immediately notify the State Historic Preservation Office <br /> project specialist and grants supervisor if any changes to the scope of <br /> work or project schedule are anticipated. If the change is minor, the grants <br /> supervisor will advise the Grantee on how to proceed and direct the <br /> Grantee to describe the change in the final financial report. If the change <br /> is major, the Grantee will be required to utilize the procedure outlined in <br /> the Grantee Handbook for Federal Historic Preservation Fund Grant <br /> Projects. <br /> Only minor changes may be made in the scope or budget without the <br /> approval of the State Historic Preservation Office. Minor changes are <br /> those changes that involve five per cent or less of the project cost and that <br /> do not alter the basic scope of the project, do not substitute unapproved <br /> materials or methods, or do not add or delete work items. All other <br /> changes will be deemed to be major changes. <br /> Major changes must be approved in writing by the State Historic <br /> Preservation Office before changes are made. Costs of major changes, <br /> those in excess of five per cent of the project cost, made without prior <br /> State Historic Preservation Office written approval, may be disallowed. <br /> The entire grant allocation for the project may be canceled if major <br /> changes are not approved in writing by the State Historic Preservation <br /> Office. <br /> I. NONDISCRIMINATION ASSURANCES: <br /> In consideration of the signing of this Contract for the performance of work and <br /> furnishing of labor and materials as set forth herein, the Parties hereto for <br /> themselves, their agents, officials, and employees or servants agree not to <br /> discriminate in any manner on the basis of age, handicap, sex, race, color, creed, <br /> sexual orientation, or national origin with reference to the subject matter of this <br /> Contract, no matter how remote. <br /> J. SAFETY PRECAUTIONS: <br /> The Grantee and the Consultant understand and agree that the National <br /> Park Service and the North Carolina Office of Archives and History <br /> assume no responsibility with respect to accidents, illnesses, or claims <br /> arising out of any work performed under a grant-supported project. The <br /> Grantee and the Consultant agree to take necessary steps to insure <br /> themselves and their personnel and to comply with the applicable local, <br /> State, or Federal safety standards, including those issued pursuant to the <br /> National Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1970. <br /> 3 <br />
