About this file
This is an Environmental Compliance Practices Vendor Compliance Statement and Non-Debarment Certification document issued by Salt Lake County, Utah, establishing compliance requirements for all vendors and contractors conducting business with the County. Salt Lake County has implemented environmentally responsible procurement practices and requires all entities entering into contracts with the County to comply with all federal, state, and local environmental laws, rules, and regulations. The County reserves the right, at its sole discretion, to decline proposals from, refuse to award contracts to, or terminate business arrangements with any vendor found to be noncompliant with environmental requirements. Vendors suspended, proposed for debarment, debarred, ineligible, or excluded from contracting with another government entity due to environmental non-compliance may be deemed non-responsible and unsuitable for County contracts.
Vendors must certify that neither they nor any owner, officer, or agent have been debarred, suspended, or excluded from federal, state, or local contracts due to environmental non-compliance; are currently indicted or charged with environmental violations; have been convicted or had civil or administrative judgments rendered against them within the past three years for environmental non-compliance or lack of business integrity; or have had a contract terminated within the past three years due to acts or omissions demonstrating lack of integrity or honesty. Vendors must require subcontractors to provide written disclosure of compliance with these same certification requirements and must immediately notify the County in writing if their certification becomes erroneous before contract award. The County reserves the right to terminate contracts for default if it is determined that a vendor knowingly submitted an erroneous certification. This document was revised in September 2019 and applies to all County procurement activities, including the referenced commercial laundry maintenance and repair contract for Salt Lake County Jail facilities.

Attachment D - Environmental Compliance Practices
Vendor Compliance Statement and Non-Debarment Certification
1. Salt Lake County has implemented environmentally responsible procurement practices. The County requires all persons, businesses, corporations and other entities doing business or entering into a contract with the County to comply with all federal, state and local environmental laws, rules and regulations. Compliance with environmental laws, rules and regulations is a relevant factor in evaluating the integrity and responsibility of a business. The county, in its sole discretion, may not solicit proposals from, award contracts to, procure, or otherwise enter into business arrangements with any person, business, corporation or other organization that is noncompliant. If a vendor is suspended, proposed for debarment, debarred, ineligible or excluded from contracting with another government entity due to environmental non-compliance, the County in its sole discretion, may deem the vendor non-responsible and decline to award a contract.
2. Based on the foregoing, the vendor certifies, to the best of its knowledge, that neither the vendor nor any owner, officer or agent of the vendor:
2.1 is presently debarred, suspended, proposed for debarment, declared ineligible, or excluded from the award of a contract or purchase by any federal, state or local agency based on a finding, determination, notice of violation or order of environmental non-compliance;
2.2 is presently indicted or charged by a government entity in a criminal, civil or administrative proceeding with the commission of any offense, violation, or failure to comply with any federal, state, or local environmental law, rule or regulation, indicating a lack of business integrity or business honesty affecting its responsibility as a county vendor;
2.3 has, within the last three (3) years, been convicted, or had a civil judgment or administrative order rendered against it for any offense or violation, including but not limited to environmental noncompliance, indicating a lack of business integrity or business honesty affecting its responsibility as a county vendor;
2.4 has, within the last three (3) years, had a contract/purchase terminated due to an act or omission, including but not limited to environmental non-compliance, demonstrating a lack of business integrity or business honesty affecting its responsibility as a county vendor.
3. Vendor shall require any sub-vendor to disclose in writing, whether at the time of the award of the subcontract, the sub-vendor complies with the certification requirements in subparagraphs 2.1, 2.2, 2.3 and 2.4 above.
4. Vendor shall immediately notify the county in writing if, at any time before the award, the vendor learns that its certification was erroneous when submitted or has since become erroneous because of changed circumstances.
5. If it is later determined that vendor knowingly rendered an erroneous certification under this provision, in addition to other available remedies, the county in its sole discretion, may terminate the contract/purchase for default.
