4-Lobbying Certification.pdf

This is a Lobbying Certification document related to Georgia's B-2618BM New Vehicle Emergency Equipment contract opportunity. The certification form requires bidders and contractors to disclose any lobbying activities and certify compliance with federal lobbying restrictions. The document outlines the definitions of lobbying contacts, covered federal actions, and the obligations of contractors to provide accurate certification regarding their lobbying expenditures and activities.

The certification mandates that contractors certify they have not and will not use federal funds to influence legislative or executive action through lobbying activities. Bidders must disclose the names of individuals conducting lobbying activities, identify the agencies contacted, specify the issues addressed, and provide estimated costs associated with such activities. The form requires certification of compliance with the Byrd Amendment restrictions and establishes that false certification may result in penalties, including civil fraud liability and suspension or debarment from federal contracts. This certification applies to all solicitations and awards exceeding the specified threshold and must be submitted as part of the contract proposal documentation.
