About this file
This is an Environmental Compliance Practices Vendor Compliance Statement and Non-Debarment Certification document issued by Salt Lake County in Utah for use in their procurement processes. The document outlines Salt Lake County's commitment to environmentally responsible procurement practices and requires all vendors, businesses, and entities entering into contracts with the County to comply with all federal, state, and local environmental laws, rules, and regulations. The certification applies to the SLCo PWO124335 Boring for Traffic Signal Construction contract opportunity, for which Salt Lake County Public Works Operations Division invites bids on boring or directional drilling services. Projects may occur at various times and locations within Salt Lake County, and the County reserves the right to award multiple contracts to responsive, responsible bidders meeting qualifications who submit the lowest overall cost. A virtual pre-bid meeting was scheduled for December 10th at 11:00 AM, with meeting information available by contacting Aaron Stone at astone@saltlakecounty.gov.
Vendors must certify that neither they nor any owner, officer, or agent has been debarred, suspended, indicted, convicted, or had a civil judgment rendered against them for environmental non-compliance or violations of environmental laws within the last three years, nor have they had a contract terminated due to environmental non-compliance or lack of business integrity. Vendors must also require any sub-vendors to provide written disclosure of compliance with these same certification requirements. Vendors are obligated to immediately notify the County in writing if their certification becomes erroneous before contract award or if circumstances change. The County reserves the right to terminate any contract for default if a vendor is found to have knowingly provided an erroneous certification. This certification requirement was revised in September 2019.

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.
