Compliance with Regulations: Contractor shall comply with the regulations relative to nondiscrimination in federally-assisted programs of the Department of Transportation Title 49, Code of Federal Regulations, Part 21, as they may be amended from time to time, (hereinafter referred to as the Regulations), which are herein incorporated by reference and made a part of the Contract.

For purposes of this provision, a “protected class” means a group of persons distinguished by race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, national origin, marital status, veteran status, disability or age.

Owner may require Contractor to terminate a subcontract with a Subcontractor that fails to maintain its certification under ORS 200.055 throughout the term of the subcontract and any extensions.

(d) It is a material term of the Contract that the Contractor certifies by entering into the Contract that Contractor has a written policy and practice that meets the requirements described in ORS 279A.112 for preventing sexual harassment, sexual assault and discrimination against employees who are members of a protected class and that the Contractor shall maintain the policy and practice in force during the entire term of the Contract
