The Local Government’s subcontracts must contain requirements that all of the iron and
steel products used in the Project are in compliance with the American Iron and Steel
requirement as described in Section 608 of the Federal Water Pollution Control Act unless the
Local Government has obtained a waiver pertaining to the Project or the Department has advised
the Local Government that the requirement is not applicable to the Project.
5. A Financing Rate of 0.04 percent per annum is established for the additional
financing amount awarded in this amendment. Individually, the interest rate is 0.04 percent per

January 1, 2020, the Financing Rate may be adjusted.
6. The estimated principal amount of the Loan is hereby revised to $85,498,900, which
consists of $85,000,000 authorized for disbursement to the Local Government and $498,900 of
Capitalized Interest. This total consists of the following:
7. An additional Loan Service Fee in the amount of $400,000, for a total of $1,700,000,

$87,198,900, which consists of the Loan principal plus the estimated Loan Service Fee.

Project records. Changes in Project costs may also occur as a result of an audit.

the order in which they have been obligated without respect to budgetary line item estimates. All
disbursements shall be made from the original Loan amount until that amount has been
disbursed; the Financing Rate established for the original Loan amount shall apply to such
