14. DESCRIPTION OF AMENDMENT/MODIFICATION (Organized by UCF section headings, including solicitation/contract subject matter where feasible.)

EWP Bank Stabilization - 4 Sites - City of Hattiesburg, Forrest County, Mississippi

This amendment serves to answer an additional question received about whether the project is tax exempt, and changes the email address where bids shall be submitted to:

laureen.eipp@usda.gov

The project is not automatically tax exempt. The government's tax exempt status is not directly conveyed to the contractor. The following is an excerpt out of FAR Part 29.303 Application of State and local taxes to Government contractors and subcontractors.

" (a) Prime contractors and subcontractors shall not normally be designated as agents of the Government for the purpose of claiming immunity from State or local sales or use taxes.

Before any activity contends that a contractor is an agent of the Government, the matter Continued ...

Except as provided herein, all terms and conditions of the document referenced in Item 9 A or 10A, as heretofore changed, remains unchanged and in full force and effect .

shall be referred to the agency head for review.

The referral shall include all pertinent data on which the contention is based, together with a thorough analysis of all relevant legal precedents.

(b) When purchases are not made by the

Government itself, but by a prime contractor or by a subcontractor under a prime contract, the right to an exemption of the transaction from a sales or use tax may not rest on the Government's immunity from direct taxation by States and localities. It may rest instead on provisions of the particular State or local law involved, or, in some cases, the transaction may not in fact be expressly exempt from the tax."
