The contractor will have access to the parking lot only. To enter the site the contractor must press the button at the front gate and AT personnel in the cab (Manned 24/7) will open the front gate remotely to allow site access to the parking lot. The names of contractor personnel shall be provided for security requirements.
The contractor shall be responsible for any damage caused by himself/herself and his/her employees and equipment while on government property. Contractor is responsible for any damage which includes, but is not limited to, the fencing, light fixtures, etc. and must be reported immediately to the SSC Supervisor or COR.
Requirements:
a. The snow has to be removed from the drives and the parking areas, as there is no place to plow the snow. The fence is within a foot or two of the parking spaces. There is one area that the snow can temporarily be piled: the back parking lot (no more than 20' high snow pile). All of the parking lot is bounded by curbs.
b. Due to the narrow drives involved and the architectural spaces, the snow around the building will be removed, there is no place to push or store it. Individual parking spaces are to be kept clear. Proper equipment will be utilized to ensure vehicles are not damaged. The contractor must submit the type of equipment he intends to use for snow removal.
Suggested equipment:
· Snowplows –with minimum capacity of five (5) tons, minimum seven (7)’ width and one (1) with a six (6)’ plow for perimeter walkway. Plows must be properly maintained to ensure the clearest surface possible.
· One (1) front end loader – minimum capacity three (3) cubic yards (farm type excluded). Only needed if snow needs to be removed off the premises.
· At least one dump truck to remove snow from the cleared areas in a timely fashion – minimum capacity six (6) cubic yards.
· Sanding equipment – The type of equipment utilized must provide for an expeditious, even distribution of sand to the widest extent possible and at the same time operated in such a manner as not to cause possible damage to any personnel/real property in vicinity of operation.
· A snow blower may be utilized in those areas where it is practical and where it will not violate any other terms of the contract.
· Snow shovels to clear out all drainage, and exit/entryways (includes emergency exits).
c. Snow removal shall begin when two (2) inches accumulates. The lot must be sanded and salted with a 50/50 mix. Freezing rain/sleet will require sanding and salting. If freezing rain/sleet occurs without snow, sanding/salting will be required during all shift changes of Air Traffic personnel to ensure safe access in and out of the facility. All doorways require snow removal including rear exit fire door, telco room and engine generator room. Ensure that fire hydrants are not blocked.
d. The sidewalks must be done at the same time. Sidewalks will be treated with flake calcium and sand to provide a safe walking surface reasonably free of ice and snow. Plastic containers of flake calcium and sand will be provided at each entrance, to be used by FAA employees to dust the walk as necessary in between contractor visits.
Contractor will replace/refill each container when its supply of flake calcium and sand is depleted.
e. In the spring, the contractor shall clean up, sweep, and remove the sand/salt mixture. Additionally, any landscape damaged in the course of snow removal shall be repaired or replaced at no additional cost to the FAA.
Invoices:
The contractor shall invoice the FAA for services performed at the end of each month.
Coordination:
Prior to the start of plowing season, contractor will meet with the SSC Supervisor or COR to determine type of equipment contractor intends to utilize and go over a storage location. Spring cleanup will be coordinated

3.1.9-1 ELECTRONIC COMMERCE AND SIGNATURE (JUL 2020)
(a) The Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act (E-SIGN) establishes a legal equivalence between:
(1) Contracts written on paper and contracts in electronic form;
(2) Pen-and-ink signatures and electronic signatures; and
(3) Other legally-required written records and the same information in electronic form.
(b) With the submission of an offer, the offeror acknowledges and accepts the utilization of electronic commerce as part of the requirements of this solicitation and the resultant contract.
(c) Certain documents may need to be provided or maintained in original form, such as large-scale drawings impractical to convert to electronic format or a document with a raised seal signifying authenticity. This clause does not change or affect any other requirements that a document must be in paper format to satisfy legal requirements such as for certain real estate transactions.
(d) The use of electronic signature technology is authorized under this solicitation and the resulting contract.
(e) Contractors must not digitally sign any documents with software that uses the Secure Hash Algorithm 1 (SHA- 1). All digitally signed documents and contracts sent to the FAA must use a SHA-256 or higher hash algorithm. This is based on the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) Policy Statement on Hash Functions dated August 5, 2015. Further guidance on the use of SHA-256 is in NIST Special Publication (SP) 800-57 Part 1, section
5.6.2 as amended and SP 800-131A, Revision 1 dated November 6, 2015. Additional guidance on the use of SHA-3 is in NIST SP 800-185 as amended.
(f) Contractors do not have to update documents previously digitally signed using SHA-1 hash algorithms unless the document requires updating. The FAA and contractors may continue to use SHA-1 for the following applications:
Verifying old digital signatures and time stamps, generating and verifying hash-based message authentication codes (HMACs), key derivation functions (KDFs), and random bit/number generation.

(3) He or she will include the language of this clause in all subcontract awards at any tier and require that all recipients of subcontract awards in excess of $150,000 must disclose accordingly.
(4) This certification and disclosure is a prerequisite for making or entering into this contract imposed by the Act.
Any person who makes a prohibited expenditure or fails to file or amend a disclosure form, must be subject to a civil penalty of not less than $10,000 and not more than $100,000, for each such failure.
(c) The prohibitions of the Act do not apply under the following conditions:
(1) Agency and legislative liaison by its own employees.
(i) The prohibition on the use of appropriated funds, in subparagraph (b)(1) of this clause, does not apply in the case of a payment of reasonable compensation made to an officer or employee of a person requesting or receiving a covered Federal action if the payment is for agency and legislative liaison activities not directly related to a covered Federal action.
(ii) For purposes of subdivision (c)(1)(i) of this clause, providing any information specifically requested by an agency or Congress is permitted at any time.
(iii) The following agency and legislative liaison activities are permitted at any time where they are not related to a specific solicitation for any covered Federal action:
(A) Discussing with an agency the qualities and characteristics (including individual demonstrations) of the person's products or services, conditions or terms of sale, and service capabilities.
(B) Technical discussions and other activities regarding the application or adaptation of the person's products or services for an agency's use.
(iv) The following agency and legislative liaison activities are permitted where they are prior to Screening Information Request (SIR) of any covered Federal action:
(A) Providing any information not specifically requested but necessary for an agency to make an informed decision about initiation of a covered Federal action;
(B) Technical discussions regarding the preparation of an unsolicited proposal prior to its official submission; and
(C) Capability presentations by persons seeking awards from an agency pursuant to the provisions of a law authorizing such actions;
(v) Only those services expressly authorized by subdivision (c)(1)(i) of this clause are permitted under this clause.
(2) Professional and technical services.
(i) The prohibition on the use of appropriated funds, in subparagraph (b)(1) of this clause, does not apply in the case of:
(A) A payment of reasonable compensation made to an officer or employee of a person requesting or receiving a covered Federal action or an extension, continuation, renewal, amendment, or modification of a covered Federal action, if payment is for professional or technical services rendered directly in the preparation, submission, or negotiation of submittal/offer or application for that Federal action or for meeting requirements imposed by or pursuant to law as a condition for receiving that Federal action.
(B) Any reasonable payment to a person, other than an officer or employee of a person requesting or receiving a covered Federal action or an extension, continuation, renewal, amendment, or modification of a covered Federal action if the payment is for professional or technical services rendered directly in the preparation, submission, or negotiation of any submittal/offer or application for that Federal action or for meeting requirements imposed by or pursuant to law as a condition for receiving that Federal action. Persons other than officers or employees of a person requesting or receiving a covered Federal action include consultants and trade associations.
(ii) For purposes of subdivision (c)(2)(i) of this clause, 'professional and technical services' must be limited to advice and analysis directly applying any professional or technical discipline. For example, drafting of a legal document accompanying a submittal/offer by a lawyer is allowable. Similarly, technical advice provided by an engineer on the performance or operational capability of a piece of equipment rendered directly in the negotiation of a contract is allowable. However, communications with the intent to influence made by a professional (such as a licensed lawyer) or a technical person (such as a licensed accountant) are not allowable under this section unless they provide advice and analysis directly applying their professional or technical expertise and unless the advice or analysis is rendered directly and solely in the preparation, submission or negotiation of a covered Federal action. Thus, for example, communications with the intent to influence made by a lawyer that do not provide legal advice or analysis directly and solely related to the legal aspects of his or her client's submittal/offer, but generally advocate one proposal over another are not allowable under this section because the lawyer is not providing professional legal services.
Similarly, communications with the intent to influence made by an engineer providing an engineering analysis prior to the preparation or submission of a submittal/offer are not allowable under this section since the engineer is providing technical services but not directly in the preparation, submission or negotiation of a covered Federal action.
(iii) Requirements imposed by or pursuant to law as a condition for receiving a covered Federal award include those required by law or regulation and any other requirements in the actual award documents.
(iv) Only those services expressly authorized by subdivisions (c)(2)(i) and (ii) of this clause are permitted under this clause.
(v) The reporting requirements herein must not apply with respect to payments of reasonable compensation made to regularly employed officers or employees of a person.
(d) Disclosure.
(1) If the Contractor, who requests or receives from an agency a Federal contract, has made or has agreed to make any payment using non-appropriated funds (to include profits from any Covered Federal action), to any person for the purpose of influencing or attempting to influence an officer or employee of any Agency, a Member of Congress, an officer or employee of Congress, or an employee of a Member of Congress on his or her behalf in connection with a Covered Federal action, the Contractor must file with that agency a disclosure form, OMB Standard Form LLL, Disclosure of Lobbying Activities..
(2) The Contractor must file a disclosure form at the end of each calendar quarter in which there occurs any event that materially affects the accuracy of the information contained in any disclosure form previously filed by such person under subparagraph (d)(1) of this clause. An event that materially affects the accuracy of the information reported includes:
(i) A cumulative increase of $25,000 or more in the amount paid or expected to be paid for influencing or attempting to influence a covered Federal action; or
(ii) A change in the person(s) or individual(s) influencing or attempting to influence a covered Federal action; or
(iii) A change in the officer(s), employee(s), or Member(s) contacted to influence or attempt to influence a covered Federal action.
(3) The Contractor must require the certification, and if required, a disclosure form by any person who requests or receives any subcontractor exceeding $150,000 under the Federal contract.
(4) All subcontractor disclosure forms must be forwarded from tier to tier until received by the prime Contractor.
The prime Contractor must submit all disclosures to the Contracting Officer at the end of the calendar quarter in which the disclosure form is submitted by the subcontractor.
(e) Agreement. The Contractor agrees not to make any payment prohibited by this clause.
(f) Penalties.
(1) Any person who makes an expenditure prohibited under paragraph (b) of this clause or fails to file or amend the disclosure form to be filed or amended by paragraph (b) must be subject to civil penalties as provided for by 31 U.S.C. 1352. An imposition of a civil penalty does not prevent the Government from seeking any other remedy that may be applicable.
(2) Contractors may rely without liability on the representations made by their subcontractors in the certification and in the disclosure form.
(g) Cost allowability. Nothing in this clause makes allowable or reasonable any costs which would otherwise be unallowable or unreasonable. Conversely, costs made specifically unallowable by the requirements in this clause will not be made allowable under any other provision.
(End of clause)
