RE: AG-84M8-S-16-0044

2016 E Branch Weiser River AOP

Dear Perspective Contractor:

During the evaluation process of any received proposals and prior to the award of any contract, the Government must conduct a Determination of Responsibility on the perspective contractor in order to determine their capacity and capabilities. In order to accomplish this task, I review data from various sources. Therefore, I seek your assistance in obtaining this data on your firm. To assist you in providing the information required, I have enclosed a form for your use. Please provide the information listed as a minimum.

Any additional information you have demonstrating the capabilities of your firm would also be appreciated.

Please note that in the case of most banks, factoring companies, financial institutions and often time’s suppliers, they need your express permission to release any information concerning your accounts. I appreciate your cooperation in coordinating with these establishments to enable me to obtain the required information. You would need to provide my name to them, as well as the type of contract that you have submitted a proposal on.

In the case of references for suppliers, please provide the name and phone number for the person most knowledgeable with your firm’s reputation. i.e., in some cases a Project Manager for instance may be more knowledgeable of your contributions than say an owner.

Please include this information with your business proposal. Thank-you for your cooperation. If you have any questions please don’t hesitate to call me at (208) 373-4166.

Sincerely, Matt Morris

Contracting Officer, Boise & Payette National Forest

52.223-9 -- Estimate of Percentage of Recovered Material Content for EPA Designated Items.

As prescribed in 23.406(d), insert the following clause:

Estimate of Percentage of Recovered Material Content For EPA Designated Items (May 2008)

(a) Definitions. As used in this clause— “Postconsumer material” means a material or finished product that has served its intended use and has been discarded for disposal or recovery, having completed its life as a consumer item. Postconsumer material is a part of the broader category of “recovered material.”

“Recovered material” means waste materials and by-products recovered or diverted from solid waste, but the term does not include those materials and by-products generated from, and commonly reused within, an original manufacturing process.

(b) The Contractor, on completion of this contract, shall—

(1) Estimate the percentage of the total recovered material content for EPA-designated item(s) delivered and/or used in contract performance, including, if applicable, the percentage of postconsumer material content; and

(2) Submit this estimate to ___TDB________ [Contracting Officer complete in accordance with agency procedures].

AG-0261-S-16-0044 Page 9 of 21 http://farsite.hill.af.mil/reghtml/regs/far2afmcfars/fardfars/far/23.htm#P195_22650

52.225-9 Buy American - Construction Materials. (MAY 2014)

(a) Definitions. As used in this clause- Commercially available off-the-shelf (COTS) item- (1) Means any item of supply (including construction material) that is-

(i) A commercial item (as defined in paragraph (1) of the definition at FAR 2.101);

(ii) Sold in substantial quantities in the commercial marketplace; and

(iii) Offered to the Government, under a contract or subcontract at any tier, without modification, in the same form in which it is sold in the commercial marketplace; and

(2) Does not include bulk cargo, as defined in 46 U.S.C. 40102(4), such as agricultural products and petroleum products.

Construction material means an article, material, or supply brought to the construction site by the Contractor or a subcontractor for incorporation into the building or work. The term also includes an item brought to the site preassembled from articles, materials, or supplies. However, emergency life safety systems, such as emergency lighting, fire alarm, and audio evacuation systems, that are discrete systems incorporated into a public building or work and that are produced as complete systems, are evaluated as a single and distinct construction material regardless of when or how the individual parts or components of those systems are delivered to the construction site. Materials purchased directly by the Government are supplies, not construction material.

Cost of components means-

(1) For components purchased by the Contractor, the acquisition cost, including transportation costs to the place of incorporation into the construction material (whether or not such costs are paid to a domestic firm), and any applicable duty (whether or not a duty-free entry certificate is issued); or

(2) For components manufactured by the Contractor, all costs associated with the manufacture of the component, including transportation costs as described in paragraph (1) of this definition, plus allocable overhead costs, but excluding profit. Cost of components does not include any costs associated with the manufacture of the construction material.

Domestic construction material means-

(1) An unmanufactured construction material mined or produced in the United States;

(2) A construction material manufactured in the United States, if-

(i) The cost of its components mined, produced, or manufactured in the United States exceeds 50 percent of the cost of all its components. Components of foreign origin of the same class or kind for which nonavailability determinations have been made are treated as domestic; or

(ii) The construction material is a COTS item.

Foreign construction material means a construction material other than a domestic construction material.

United States means the 50 States, the District of Columbia, and outlying areas.

(b) Domestic preference. (1) This clause implements 41 U.S.C. chapter 83, Buy American, by providing a preference for domestic construction material. In accordance with 41 U.S.C. 1907, the component test of the Buy American statute is waived for construction material that is a COTS item. (See FAR 12.505(a)(2)). The Contractor shall use only domestic construction material in performing this contract, except as provided in paragraphs (b)(2) and (b)(3) of this clause.

(2) This requirement does not apply to information technology that is a commercial item or to the construction materials or components listed by the Government as follows:

(3) The Contracting Officer may add other foreign construction material to the list in paragraph (b)(2) of this clause if the Government determines that-

(i) The cost of domestic construction material would be unreasonable. The cost of a particular domestic construction material subject to the requirements of the Buy American statute is unreasonable when the cost of such material exceeds the cost of foreign material by more than 6 percent;

(ii) The application of the restriction of the Buy American statute to a particular construction material would be impracticable or inconsistent with the public interest; or

(iii) The construction material is not mined, produced, or manufactured in the United States in sufficient and reasonably available commercial quantities of a satisfactory quality.

(c) Request for determination of inapplicability of the Buy American statute. (1)(i) Any Contractor request to use foreign construction material in accordance with paragraph (b)(3) of this clause shall include adequate information for Government evaluation of the request, including-
