About this file

This is a Business Confidentiality Claim Form issued by the Utah State Archives Office of the Government Records Ombudsman for use in the Request for Statements of Qualifications (RFSQ) JH26-40 Great Salt Lake Wetland Hydrology and Phragmites Monitoring, conducted by the State of Utah Division of Forestry, Fire and State Lands through the Division of Purchasing. The project seeks outside professional services to monitor hydrologic conditions and phragmites plant cover in Great Salt Lake wetlands, as the scale exceeds the state agency's internal capacity. This is a small purchase procurement under Administrative Rule R33-105 with a threshold of $100,000.00. Respondents are instructed to submit statements of qualifications without pricing information.

The form requires claimants to submit both redacted and non-redacted versions of their proposals when asserting confidentiality claims under Utah Code 63G-2-305 for trade secrets or commercial financial information. Claimants must provide detailed information including company name, address, representative contact information, and a concise statement of reasons supporting the confidentiality claim, specifying which pages and paragraphs warrant protection. The Division of Purchasing will not perform redaction on behalf of claimants who fail to provide a redacted version. Submission of a confidentiality claim does not guarantee protected classification if the government receives a public records request under GRAMA, as protection depends on meeting statutory criteria demonstrating that disclosure could reasonably result in unfair competitive injury.

Office of the Government Records Ombudsman Utah State Archives

Business Request for GRAMA Business Confidentiality Claim

Note: Utah Code § 63G-2-305(1) states that trade secrets can be protected if the person submitting the trade secret provides the governmental entity with a confidentiality claim. Likewise, Utah Code § 63G-2-305(2) states that commercial financial information can be protected if disclosure could reasonably be expected to result in unfair competitive injury to the person submitting the information, and that person has provided a confidentiality claim. Confidentiality claims are described in Utah Code § 63G-2-309. A claim must include a concise statement of reasons supporting the claim and must be submitted with the information requested to be protected. A claimant MUST submit a redacted and non-redacted version of their proposal. The entire proposal may NOT be redacted. The Division of Purchasing will not redact a proposal on behalf of a claimant if they fail to upload a redacted copy of their proposal.
