About this file
This is a Disclosure Exemption Affidavit related to the Oregon Health Authority's (OHA) Request for Information (RFI S-44300-00017435) for Environmental Health Licensing and Inspection Software. The affidavit serves as a formal document allowing respondents to request exemptions from public disclosure for specific proprietary information contained within their proposals submitted to the State of Oregon. The affidavit requires the affiant to certify their authority to represent the responding organization and to identify which proposal contents qualify for protection under Oregon's Public Records Law, the Uniform Trade Secrets Act, or both. Respondents must designate exempt information in Exhibit A and provide justification that such information meets legal criteria for trade secret protection, including formulas, processes, production data, customer lists, cost data, or other compilations of information that provide competitive business advantage and are subject to reasonable secrecy measures by the organization.
The affidavit mandates that all designated exempt information must be clearly identified and supported by specific statutory references or trade secret law provisions. The respondent bears the responsibility of demonstrating that the withheld information derives independent economic value from not being generally known and that the organization maintains reasonable efforts to keep such information confidential. The State of Oregon retains the final authority to determine whether claimed exemptions are valid based on official or judicial review in accordance with applicable public records law. This document is a required component of the RFI submission process and must be notarized and executed by an authorized representative of the responding vendor before inclusion with the proposal.

ATTACHMENT B — disclosure exemption AFFIDAVIT ____________________ (Affiant), being first duly sworn under oath, and representing [insert Respondent Name] (hereafter “Respondent”), hereby deposes and swears or affirms under penalty of perjury that:
I am an employee of the Respondent, I have knowledge of the Request for Information referenced herein, and I have full authority from the Respondent to submit this affidavit and accept the responsibilities stated herein.
I am aware that the Respondent has submitted a Proposal, dated on or about [insert date] (the “Proposal”), to the State of Oregon (State) in response to Request for Proposals [insert RFI #], for [insert description of RFI], and I am familiar with the contents of the RFI and Proposal.
I have read and am familiar with the provisions of Oregon’s Public Records Law, Oregon Revised Statutes (“ORS”) 192.311 through 192.478, and the Uniform Trade Secrets Act as adopted by the State of Oregon, which is set forth in ORS 646.461 through ORS 646.475. I understand that the Proposal is a public record held by a public body and is subject to disclosure under the Oregon Public Records Law unless specifically exempt from disclosure under that law.
I have reviewed the information contained in the Proposal. The Respondent believes the information listed in Exhibit A is exempt from public disclosure (collectively, the “Exempt Information”), which is incorporated herein by this reference. It is my opinion that the Exempt Information is exempt from disclosure under Oregon’s Public Records Law under the specifically designated sections as set forth in Exhibit A or constitutes “Trade Secrets” under either the Oregon Public Records Law or the Uniform Trade Secrets Act as adopted in Oregon because that information is either:
A formula, plan, pattern, process, tool, mechanism, compound, procedure, production data, or compilation of information that:
is not patented, is known only to certain individuals within the Respondent’s organization and that is used in a business the Respondent conducts, has actual or potential commercial value, and gives its user an opportunity to obtain a business advantage over competitors who do not know or use it.
or Information, including a drawing, cost data, customer list, formula, pattern, compilation, program, device, method, technique or process that:
Derives independent economic value, actual or potential, from not being generally known to the public or to other persons who can obtain economic value from its disclosure or use; and Is the subject of efforts by the Respondent that are reasonable under the circumstances to maintain its secrecy.
I understand that disclosure of the information referenced in Exhibit A may depend on official or judicial determinations made in accordance with the Public Records Law.
