About this file
This document is a Request for Proposal (RFP) Solicitation No. BPM006379 from the Arizona Department of Environmental Quality (ADEQ), located in Phoenix, Arizona. The specific attachment is a "Boycott of Israel Disclosure" form, which requires vendors to certify their stance on business relations with Israel as part of the state's procurement requirements. The document involves Watearth, Inc., a company based in Tucson, Arizona, which appears to be responding to the solicitation.
The solicitation is for Capacity Development/Technical Assistance to Small Public Drinking Water Systems, though specific service details are not comprehensively outlined in this attachment. The document primarily focuses on a mandatory certification process related to Arizona Revised Statutes (A.R.S.) 35-393, which requires companies with ten or more full-time employees to declare whether they are participating in a boycott of Israel. Exemptions exist for solicitations under $100,000, sole proprietorships, companies with fewer than ten employees, and non-profit organizations. The form provides Watearth, Inc. an opportunity to affirm their non-participation in any Israel boycott as a condition of potential contract award.
