No. 05-89; 111 Stat. 2115), the LaShawn A. v. Bowser Implementation and Exit Plan, and the Fostering Connections to Success and Increasing Adoptions Act of 2008, approved October 8, 2008 (Pub. L. No. 110-351; 122 Stat. 3949), and to authorize payment for the services received and to be received under the contract.

(b) The base year contract was awarded to ICS on September 30, 2011, in the not-to-exceed amount of $494,100, for services to be provided to 3 clients for the period from September 30, 2011, through September 29, 2012.

            (c) Modification No. 1, dated March 7, 2012, increased the number of clients by one, from 3 to 4, and increased the total not-to-exceed amount by $93,150, from $494,100 to $587,250, for the period from March 7, 2012, through September 29, 2012 (207 days).  This modification necessitated increasing the total not-to-exceed amount of $494,100 to $658,800 for Option Years 1 through 4.

(d) Modification No. 2, dated September 28, 2012, clarified that the total not-to-exceed amount for Option Years 1 through 3 had been increased to $657,000, rather than $658,800.

(j) Council approval is necessary because the expenditures under the contract are in an amount in excess of $1 million during a 12-month period.
