2-PROTECTED INFORMATION REQUEST FORM.docx

This is a Protected Information Request Form used by the City of Utah in conjunction with the Zone 5 North 4.0 MG Water Storage Reservoir project, which seeks a General Contractor Statement of Qualifications. The form provides vendors with the opportunity to identify and designate specific information within their proposal submissions as confidential or proprietary in nature, thereby requesting protection from public disclosure under the Government Records Access and Management Act (GRAMA), codified as Utah Code Ann., Subsection 63G-2-101, et seq. Vendors must clearly describe any sections they wish to protect and provide sufficient detail regarding their confidentiality claims; failure to comply with GRAMA requirements or use of blanket confidentiality claims may result in the City declining protection designation or classifying the proposal as a public record without further vendor discussion.

The form requires vendors to provide their company name, contact name, email address, and RFP or Bid number, along with a detailed listing of all sections for which business confidentiality protection is claimed. The City reserves sole discretion to determine whether information qualifies for protected status and may refuse designation if claims are inadequately specified or improperly documented. Any proposals submitted that do not comply with applicable GRAMA statutes may be classified as public records by the City without additional consultation with the vendor.
