About this file
The document is a Byrd Anti-Lobbying Amendment Certification, a standard federal procurement compliance form. The certification requires vendors to declare that they have not and will not use federal appropriated funds to influence or attempt to influence government officials in connection with federal contracts, grants, loans, or cooperative agreements. The document outlines three key certification requirements: (1) No federal funds have been or will be paid to influence government officials, (2) If non-federal funds are used for lobbying, the vendor must complete a Standard Form-LLL disclosure, and (3) The vendor must include this certification language in all subawards and subcontracts.
The certification carries significant legal implications, with potential civil penalties ranging from $10,000 to $100,000 for each failure to file the required certification. By signing the document, the vendor affirms the truthfulness of their statements and acknowledges that they are subject to the provisions of 31 U.S.C. Chapter 38, which covers administrative remedies for false claims and statements. The form provides space for the vendor's authorized official to sign, date, and print their name and title, formally attesting to the compliance statements.
