Section -- - Terms and Conditions Terms and Conditions List

Instructions, Conditions, and Notices to Bidders

1. Incorporation of Representations and Certifications Certain representations and certifications must be made by the offeror and must be filled in as appropriate. The signature of the offeror on the face page of this SIR/RFO constitutes the making of certain representations and certifications. Award of any contract to the offeror shall be considered to have incorporated the applicable representations and certifications by reference.

2. Submission of Supporting Cost or Pricing It is anticipated that price analysis will be based on adequate price competition; therefore, vendors are not required to submit additional cost or pricing data with their initial proposal. However, if after receipt of offers it is determined that adequate price competition does not exist, or lowest offer seems unreasonable or unrealistically low and poses a risk to the FAA supporting cost or pricing data for clarification purposes may be required.

The FAA currently does not intend to allow offerors to change their pricing after the close of the solicitation period.

As such, offerors are encouraged to submit their lowest and best pricing initially.

3. Information and Considerations Affecting Offeror Proposal Submissions

(a) The FAA intends to award a single contract to the lowest price offeror otherwise eligible for award.

(b) Specific attention is invited to AMS paragraph 3.2.2.3.1.2.2, Communications with Offerors. The FAA may communicate with one or more offerors at any time during the SIR process. Communications with one offeror do not necessitate communications with other offerors since communications will be offeror specific. Information determined to have common application and not considered prejudicial to offerors will be communicated to all offerors.

(b) This document constitutes a formal SIR/RFO for which an award may be made without discussions/negotiations after close of the solicitation period. Offerors are to consider all terms and conditions contained in the formal SIR/RFO in preparation of the proposals set forth herein.

4. Instructions for Preparation and Submission of Proposals Offers must be received prior to the close of the solicitation period stated in this announcement. Offers must be submitted by email to Tamara.M.Maxwell@faa.gov. Offers received after the close of the solicitation due date will be determined "late" and will not be accepted or evaluated for award consideration. The Offeror must submit the following information with their proposal to be determined fully responsive:

Completed SIR document with all pricing information on pages 1-2 and representation and certifications marked with acceptable responses. Submit as a complete document. Do not excerpt and consolidate fill-in pages.

Terms and Conditions

(a) By submission of this offer, the offeror attests that all representations and certifications as reflected in the System for Award Management (SAM) are current and accurate as of the date the offer is submitted. The offeror shall provide immediate written notice to the Contracting Officer if at any time prior to award the offeror learns that any certification or representation in SAM was erroneous when this offer was submitted or has become erroneous by reason of changed circumstances.

(b) Warranty. The Contractor warrants and implies that the items delivered hereunder are merchantable and fit for use for the particular purpose described in this contract.

(c) Inspection and Acceptance. The Contractor must only tender for acceptance those supplies or services that conform to the requirements of this contract. The Government reserves the right to inspect or test any supplies or services that have been tendered for acceptance. The Government may require repair or replacement of nonconforming supplies or re-performance of nonconforming services at no increase in contract price. If repair, replacement or re-performance will not correct the defects or is not possible to correct the defects in a time period deemed reasonable by the Government, the Government may seek an equitable price reduction or adequate consideration for acceptance of nonconforming supplies or services. The Government must exercise its post-acceptance rights:

(1) Within a reasonable time after the defect was discovered or should have been discovered; and

(2) Before any substantial change occurs in the condition of the item, unless the change is due to the defect in the item.

(d) Clause List

3.1.9-1 ELECTRONIC COMMERCE AND SIGNATURE (JUL 2020)

(a) The Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act (E-SIGN) establishes a legal equivalence between:

(1) Contracts written on paper and contracts in electronic form;

(2) Pen-and-ink signatures and electronic signatures; and

(3) Other legally-required written records and the same information in electronic form.

(b) With the submission of an offer, the offeror acknowledges and accepts the utilization of electronic commerce as part of the requirements of this solicitation and the resultant contract.

(c) Certain documents may need to be provided or maintained in original form, such as large-scale drawings impractical to convert to electronic format or a document with a raised seal signifying authenticity. This clause does not change or affect any other requirements that a document must be in paper format to satisfy legal requirements such as for certain real estate transactions.

(d) The use of electronic signature technology is authorized under this solicitation and the resulting contract.

(e) Contractors must not digitally sign any documents with software that uses the Secure Hash Algorithm 1 (SHA- 1). All digitally signed documents and contracts sent to the FAA must use a SHA-256 or higher hash algorithm. This is based on the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) Policy Statement on Hash Functions dated August 5, 2015. Further guidance on the use of SHA-256 is in NIST Special Publication (SP) 800-57 Part 1, section

5.6.2 as amended and SP 800-131A, Revision 1 dated November 6, 2015. Additional guidance on the use of SHA-3 is in NIST SP 800-185 as amended.

(f) Contractors do not have to update documents previously digitally signed using SHA-1 hash algorithms unless the document requires updating. The FAA and contractors may continue to use SHA-1 for the following applications:

Verifying old digital signatures and time stamps, generating and verifying hash-based message authentication codes (HMACs), key derivation functions (KDFs), and random bit/number generation.

(End of Clause)

3.2.2.3-2 MINIMUM OFFER ACCEPTANCE PERIOD (APR 2024)

(a) 'Acceptance period,' as used in this provision, means the number of calendar days the FAA has to award a contract from the date the SIR specifies for receiving offers.

(b) This provision supersedes any language about the acceptance period appearing elsewhere in this SIR.

(c) The FAA requires a minimum acceptance period of 15 calendar days.

(d) The offeror may specify a longer acceptance period than the period shown in paragraph (c). To specify a longer period, fill in the blank: The offeror allows the following acceptance period: _____ calendar days.

(e) The FAA may reject an offer allowing less than the FAA's minimum acceptance period.

(f) The offeror agrees to fulfill the offer completely if the FAA accepts the offer in writing within:

(1) The acceptance period stated in paragraph (c) of this provision; or

(2) Any longer acceptance period stated in paragraph (d) of this provision.

(End of provision)

3.2.2.3-3 AFFILIATED OFFERORS (APR 2024)

(a) Business concerns are affiliates of each other when, either directly or indirectly,

(1) One entity controls or has the power to control the other, or

(2) A third party controls or has the power to control both.

(b) The offeror must represent below in (c) whether it has affiliates. If the offeror represents that it "has" affiliates, it must provide the required information below in (1) and/or (2).

(a) Request for exception from certified cost or pricing data requirements.

(1) In lieu of submitting certified cost or pricing data, offerors may submit a written request for exception by submitting the information described in paragraphs (a)(1)(i) and (ii) of this clause. The Contracting Officer may require additional supporting information, but only to the extent necessary to determine whether an exception should be granted, and whether the price is fair and reasonable.

(i) Identification of the law or regulation establishing the price offered. If the price is controlled under law by periodic rulings, reviews, or similar actions of a governmental body, attach a copy of the controlling document, unless it was previously submitted to the contracting office.

(ii) Commercial item exception. For a commercial item exception, the offeror shall submit, at a minimum, information on prices at which the same item or similar items have previously been sold in the commercial market that is adequate for evaluating the reasonableness of the price for this acquisition. Such information must include-

(A) for catalog items, a copy of or identification of the catalog and its date, or the appropriate pages for the offered items, or a statement that the catalog is on file in the buying office to which the proposal is being submitted. Provide a copy or describe current discount policies and price lists (published or unpublished), e.g., wholesale, original equipment manufacturer, or reseller. Also explain the basis of each offered price and its relationship to the established catalog price, including how the proposed price relates to the price of recent sales in quantities similar to the proposed quantities;

(B) for market-priced items, the source and date or period of the market quotation or other basis for market price, the base amount, and applicable discounts. In addition, describe the nature of the market; or

(C) for items included on an active Federal Supply Service Multiple Award Schedule contract, proof that an exception has been granted for the schedule item.

(2) The offeror grants the Contracting Officer or an authorized representative the right to examine, at any time before award, books, records, documents, or other directly pertinent records to verify any request for an exception under this provision, and the reasonableness of price. For items priced using catalog or market prices, or law or regulation, access does not extend to cost or profit information or other data relevant solely to the offeror's determination of the prices to be offered in the catalog or marketplace.

(b) Requirements for certified cost or pricing data.

If the offeror is not granted an exception from the requirement to submit certified cost or pricing data, the following applies:

(1) The offeror must prepare and submit certified cost or pricing data, data other than certified cost or pricing data, and supporting attachments in accordance with the information contained at AMS Guidance T3.2.3.G.1 "Instructions for Submitting Certified Cost/Price Proposals for Supplies, Services, or Construction." which is incorporated by reference with the same force and effect as though it were inserted here in full text. The instructions in AMS T3.2.3.G.1 are incorporated as a mandatory format to be used in this contract.

(2) As soon as practicable after agreement on price, but before contract award (except for unpriced actions such as letter contracts), the offeror must submit a Certificate of Current Cost or Pricing Data that conforms to the instructions contained in the Appendix G1 to AMS Guidance T3.2.3, Cost and Price Methodology.

(End of clause)

3.2.2.3-39 REQUIREMENTS FOR CERTIFIED COST OR PRICING DATA OR DATA OTHER

THAN CERTIFIED COST OR PRICING DATA - MODIFICATIONS (JAN 2022)

(a) Request for exception from certified cost or pricing data requirements.

(1) In lieu of submitting certified cost or pricing data for modifications under this contract, on the date of the agreement on price or the date of the award, whichever is later, the Contractor may submit a written request for exception by submitting the information described in paragraphs (a)(1)(i) and (ii) of this clause. The Contracting Officer may require additional supporting information, but only to the extent necessary to determine whether an exception should be granted, and whether the price is fair and reasonable.

(i) Identification of the law or regulation establishing the price offered. If the price is controlled under law by periodic rulings, reviews, or similar actions of a governmental body, attach a copy of the controlling document, unless it was previously submitted to the contracting office.

(ii) Information on modifications of contracts or subcontracts for commercial items.

(A) If-

(1) The original contract or subcontract was granted an exception from certified cost or pricing data requirements because the price agreed upon was based on adequate price competition or prices set by law or regulation, or was a contract or subcontract for the acquisition of a commercial item; and

(2) The modification (to the contract or subcontract) is not exempted based on one of these exceptions, then the Contractor may provide information to establish that the modification would not change the contract or subcontract from a contract or subcontract for the acquisition of a commercial item to a contract or subcontract for the acquisition of an item other than a commercial item.

(B) For a commercial item exception, the Contractor must provide, at a minimum, information on prices at which the same item or similar items have previously been sold that is adequate for evaluating the reasonableness of the price of the modification. Dependent upon the commercial items being catalog items, market-priced items, or items included on an active Federal Supply Service Multiple Award Schedule contract, the Contractor must include the corresponding information pursuant to that of which is described in paragraphs (a)(1)(B)(1); (a)(1)(B)(2) or (a)(1)(B)(3) of this clause:

(1) For catalog items, a copy of or identification of the catalog and its date, or the appropriate pages for the offered items, or a statement that the catalog is on file in the buying office to which the proposal is being submitted. Provide a copy or describe current discount policies and price lists (published or unpublished), e.g., wholesale, original equipment manufacturer, or reseller. Also explain the basis of each offered price and its relationship to the established catalog price, including how the proposed price relates to the price of recent sales in quantities similar to the proposed quantities.

(2) For market-priced items, the source and date or period of the market quotation or other basis for market price, the base amount, and applicable discounts. In addition, describe the nature of the market.

(3) For items included on an active Federal Supply Service Multiple Award Schedule contract, proof that an exception has been granted for the schedule item.

(2) The Contractor grants the Contracting Officer or an authorized representative the right to examine, at any time before award, books, records, documents, or other directly pertinent records to verify any request for an exception under this clause, and the reasonableness of price. For items priced using catalog or market prices, or law or regulation, access does not extend to cost or profit information or other data relevant solely to the Contractor's determination of the prices to be offered in the catalog or marketplace.

(b) Requirements for certified cost or pricing data.

If the offeror is not granted an exception from the requirement to submit certified cost or pricing data, the following applies:

(1) The offeror must prepare and submit certified cost or pricing data, data other than certified cost or pricing data, and supporting attachments in accordance with the information contained at AMS Guidance T3.2.3.G.1 "Instructions for Submitting Certified Cost/Price Proposals for Supplies, Services, or Construction," which is incorporated by reference with the same force and effect as though it were inserted here in full text. The instructions in AMS T3.2.3.G.1 are incorporated as a mandatory format to be used in this contract.

(2) As soon as practicable after agreement on price, but before contract award (except for unpriced actions such as letter contracts), the offeror must submit a Certificate of Current Cost or Pricing Data that conforms to the instructions contained in the Appendix G1 to AMS Guidance T3.2.3, 'Cost and Price Methodology."

(End of clause)

3.2.2.3-41 PERFORMING WORK (APR 2024)

The Contractor must perform, using its own organization, work equivalent to at least 15 percent of the total amount of work under the contract on the site. The CO may modify this contract to reduce this percentage if the Contractor requests a reduction and the CO determines that it would be to the FAA's advantage to do so.

(End of clause)

3.2.2.3-50 PROPERTY PROTECTION (JUL 2024)

(a) The Contractor must construct and maintain any temporary fences, gates and other facilities needed to preserve crops, control livestock, and protect property. Before cutting a fence, the Contractor must take necessary precautions to prevent livestock from straying. The Contractor must prevent loss of tension in or damage to adjacent portions of the fence. The Contractor must immediately replace all fencing and gates cut, removed, damaged, or destroyed with new materials to the original standard. Undamaged gates may be reused.

(b) The Contractor must comply with the property owner's requests to leave gates open or closed.

(c) The Contractor must use all necessary precautions to avoid destroying surveying markers such as section corners, witness trees, property corners, mining claim markers, bench markers, triangulation stations, and the like. If the Contractor must destroy any marker, the Contractor must first notify the agency responsible for the marker, as well as the Contracting Officer's (CO) representative, and replace the markers.

(d) The Contractor must use care to prevent unnecessary damage to property in or near the work area caused by the Contractor's work. Unnecessary damage is that which the Contractor can avoid through efficient and careful performance of the work, considering the Contractor's land rights. If the Contractor damages any property, the Contractor must at once notify the owner or custodian and make or arrange to make prompt and full restitution.

(e) Maps and specifications the FAA provides may not give the location of all water supply, drainage, irrigation, and other underground facilities. Before entering a tract of land for contract purposes, the Contractor must determine from the property owner (or other reasonably available source) the location of any irrigation system, domestic water system, source of water, and drainage system existing on the property, whether serving that property or other property. The Contractor must avoid damaging or obstructing these facilities or polluting water supplies.

(f) The Contractor must hold the FAA harmless from any and all suits, actions, and claims for damages, including environmental impairment, to property arising from any of the Contractor's acts or omissions, the Contractor's subcontractors, or any of the Contractor's employees or subcontractor employees, in any way related to the work or operations under this contract.

(g) The Contractor must indemnify and hold harmless the property owners or parties lawfully in possession against all claims or liabilities asserted by third parties, including all governmental agencies, resulting directly or indirectly from the Contractor's wrongful or negligent acts or omissions.

(End of clause)

3.2.2.3-60 SPECIFICATIONS, DRAWINGS, AND MATERIAL OFFERS (JUL 2024)

(a) If either the specifications or the drawings (but not both) mention tasks, the Contractor must assume that the tasks are in both. If the drawings and specifications differ, the specifications govern. If there is a discrepancy in the figures, in the drawings, or in the specifications, the Contractor must submit the matter promptly to the Contracting Officer (CO), who will promptly determine which governs, and notify the Contractor in writing. Any adjustment made by the Contractor without the CO's determination is at the Contractor's own risk and expense. As needed, the CO will provide necessary detailed drawings and other information, unless otherwise provided.

(b) Wherever in the specifications or the drawings, the FAA uses "directed," "required," "ordered," "designated," "prescribed," or similar words, they refer to the CO's requirements. Similarly, "approved," "acceptable," "satisfactory," or similar words refer to the CO's approval, unless otherwise expressly stated. The Contractor must have a complete set of plans and specifications on-site and available for the FAA's use.

(c) Where the FAA uses "as shown," "as indicated," "as detailed," or similar words, they refer to the drawings accompanying this contract, unless stated otherwise. The word "provided" means "provided and installed."

(d) Omissions from the drawings and specifications or the erroneous description of details of work which are necessary to carry out the intent of the drawings and specifications, or which are customarily performed, does not relieve the Contractor from performing those omitted or erroneously described details of the work. The Contractor must perform them as if fully and correctly set forth and described in the drawings and specifications.

(e) The Contractor must check all drawings the FAA provides before starting work and must promptly notify the CO of any discrepancies. In general, the Contractor should follow figures marked on drawings, rather than scale measurements. In general, large-scale drawings have precedence over small-scale drawings. The Contractor must compare all drawings and verify the figures before laying out the work. If the Contractor does not verify the figures, the Contractor will be responsible for any errors that might have been avoided had it verified them.

(f) "Shop drawings" means drawings, the Contractor or any subcontractor submit to the FAA under a construction contract, showing in detail the proposed fabrication and assembly of structural elements and the installation (that is, form, fit, and attachment details) of materials or equipment. It includes drawings, diagrams, layouts, schematics, descriptive literature, illustrations, schedules, performance and test data, and similar materials the Contractor provided to explain in detail specific portions of the work the contract requires.

The FAA may duplicate, use, and disclose in any manner and for any purpose shop drawings you deliver under this contract.

(g) If this contract requires material offers (for example, shop drawings, catalog cuts, certificates of conformance), the Contractor must coordinate all of its offers, and review them for accuracy, completeness, and compliance with contract requirements. The Contractor must provide evidence that it approves the submittals. If the Contractor submits materials to the FAA without this evidence, the FAA may return them and ask the Contractor to resubmit the materials. The CO will indicate whether he or she approves or disapproves the offer, and if the CO does not approve it as submitted, will indicate the reasons for rejecting it. Any work done before the CO's approval is at the Contractor's risk. The CO's approval does not relieve the Contractor from responsibility for any errors or omissions in the submittals, nor from responsibility for complying with the contract requirements, except as described under (h).

(h) If the submittals vary from the contract requirements, the Contractor must describe the variations in writing, separate from the submittal, when it submits them. Send this description, a copy of the offer, and a proposal to incorporate it into the contract directly to the CO. If the CO approves a variation, the CO must issue an appropriate contract modification, unless the variation is minor or does not involve a change in price or in time of performance.

(i) The Contractor must submit to the CO for approval four copies (unless otherwise indicated) of all shop drawings as called for under the various headings of these specifications. The CO will keep three sets (unless otherwise indicated) of all offers and will return one set to the Contractor.

(j) The Contractor must insert this clause, with appropriate changes in the designation of the parties, in all subcontracts.

(End of Provision)

3.2.2.7-7 CERTIFICATION REGARDING RESPONSIBILITY MATTERS (JUL 2024)

(a)(1) The Offeror certifies, to the best of its knowledge and belief, that:

(i) All representations and certifications, as reflected in the System for Award Management (SAM) are current and accurate as of the date the proposal/offer is submitted. If the Offeror represents itself as an SDVOSB, the Offeror certifies it is certified as an SDVOSB under the Small Business Administration's Veteran Small Business Certification Program (VetCert) at the time of offer. The Offeror must provide immediate written notice to the Contracting Officer if at any time prior to award the Offeror and/or any of its principals learns that any certification or representation in SAM or on VetCert was erroneous when this proposal/offer was submitted or has become erroneous by reason of changed circumstances.

(ii)The Offeror and/or any of its Principals-

(A) Are [ ] are not [ ] presently debarred, suspended, proposed for debarment, or declared ineligible for the award of contracts by any Federal agency;

(B) Have [ ] have not [ ] within a three-year period preceding this offer, been convicted of or had a civil judgment rendered against them for: commission of fraud or a criminal offense in connection with obtaining, attempting to obtain, or performing a public- (Federal, state, or local) contract or subcontract; violation of Federal or state antitrust statutes relating to the submission of offers; or commission of embezzlement, theft, forgery, bribery, falsification or

Tamara M Maxwell Highlight destruction of records, making false statements, tax evasion, violating Federal criminal tax laws or receiving stolen property; and

(C) Are [ ] are not [ ] presently indicted for, or otherwise criminally or civilly charged by a governmental entity with, commission of any of the offenses enumerated in subdivision (a)(1) (ii)(B) of this provision.

(D) Have [ ], have not [ ], within a three-year period preceding this offer, been notified of any delinquent Federal taxes in an amount that exceeds $10,000 for which the liability remains unsatisfied.

(1) Federal taxes are considered delinquent if both of the following criteria apply:

(i) The tax liability is finally determined. The liability is finally determined if it has been assessed. A liability is not finally determined if there is a pending administrative or judicial challenge. In the case of a judicial challenge to the liability, the liability is not finally determined until all judicial appeal rights have been exhausted.

(ii) The taxpayer is delinquent in making payment. A taxpayer is delinquent if the taxpayer has failed to pay the tax liability when full payment was due and required. A taxpayer is not delinquent in cases where enforced collection action is precluded.

(2) Examples-

(i) The taxpayer has received a statutory notice of deficiency, under I.R.C. Sec. 6212, which entitles the taxpayer to seek Tax Court review of a proposed tax deficiency. This is not a delinquent tax because it is not a final tax liability.

Should the taxpayer seek Tax Court review, this will not be a final tax liability until the taxpayer has exercised all judicial appeal rights.

(ii) The IRS has filed a notice of Federal tax lien with respect to an assessed tax liability, and the taxpayer has been issued a notice under I.R.C. Sec. 6320 entitling the taxpayer to request a hearing with the IRS Office of Appeals contesting the lien filing, and to further appeal to the Tax Court if the IRS determines to sustain the lien filing.

During the hearing, the taxpayer is entitled to contest the underlying tax liability because the taxpayer has had no prior opportunity to contest the liability. This is not a delinquent tax because it is not a final tax liability. Should the taxpayer seek tax court review, this will not be a final tax liability until the taxpayer has exercised all judicial appeal rights.

(iii) The taxpayer has entered into an installment agreement pursuant to I.R.C. Sec. 6159. The taxpayer is making timely payments and is in full compliance with the agreement terms. The taxpayer is not delinquent because the taxpayer is not currently required to make full payment.

(iv) The taxpayer has filed for bankruptcy protection. The taxpayer is not delinquent because enforced collection action is stayed under 11 U.S.C. 362 (the Bankruptcy Code).(E) The Offeror has [ ] has not [ ] within a three-year period preceding this offer, had one or more contracts terminated for default by any Federal agency.

(2) 'Principals,' for the purposes of this certification, means officers; directors; owners; partners; and persons having primary management or supervisory responsibilities within a business entity (e.g., general manager; plant manager;

head of a subsidiary, division, or business segment, and similar positions). THIS CERTIFICATION CONCERNS A

MATTER WITHIN THE JURISDICTION OF AN AGENCY OF THE UNITED STATES AND THE MAKING

OF A FALSE, FICTITIOUS, OR FRAUDULENT CERTIFICATION MAY RENDER THE MAKER SUBJECT

TO PROSECUTION UNDER SECTION 1001, TITLE 18, UNITED STATES CODE.

(b) The Offeror must provide immediate written notice to the Contracting Officer if, at any time prior to contract award, the Offeror learns that its certification was erroneous when submitted or has become erroneous by reason of changed circumstances.

(c) A certification that any of the items in paragraph (a) of this provision exists will not necessarily result in withholding of an award under this SIR. However, the certification will be considered in connection with a determination of the Offeror's responsibility. Failure of the Offeror to furnish a certification or provide such additional information as requested by the Contracting Officer may render the Offeror non-responsible.

(d) Nothing contained in the foregoing must be construed to require establishment of a system of records to render, in good faith, the certification required by paragraph (a) of this provision. The knowledge and information of an Offeror is not required to exceed that which is normally possessed by a prudent person in the ordinary course of business dealings.

(e) The certification in paragraph (a) of this provision is a material representation of fact upon which reliance was placed when making award. If it is later determined that the Offeror knowingly rendered an erroneous certification, in addition to other remedies available to the Government, the Contracting Officer may terminate the contract resulting from this SIR for default.

(End of provision)

OR A FELONY CONVICTION UNDER ANY FEDERAL LAW (JUL 2024)

(a) As required by sections 744 and 745 of Division E of the Consolidated and Further Continuing Appropriations Act, 2015 (Pub. L. 113-235), and similar provisions, if contained in subsequent appropriations acts, the FAA will not enter into a contract with any corporation that

(1) Has any unpaid Federal tax liability that has been assessed, for which all judicial and administrative remedies have been exhausted or have lapsed, and is not being paid in a timely manner pursuant to an agreement with the authority responsible for collecting the tax liability, where the FAA is aware of the unpaid tax liability, unless the FAA has considered suspension or debarment of the corporation and made a determination that suspension or debarment is not necessary to protect the interests of the Government; or
