(h) Certification Regarding Responsibility Matters (Executive Order 12689). (Applies only if the contract value is expected to exceed the simplified acquisition threshold.) The offeror certifies, to the best of its knowledge and belief, that the offeror and/or any of its principals—

Are, are not presently debarred, suspended, proposed for debarment, or declared ineligible for the award of contracts by any Federal agency;

have not, within a three-year period preceding this offer, been convicted of or had a civil judgment rendered against them for: commission of fraud or a criminal offense in connection with obtaining, attempting to obtain, or performing a Federal, state or local government contract or subcontract; violation of Federal or state antitrust statutes relating to the submission of offers; or commission of embezzlement, theft, forgery, bribery, falsification or destruction of records, making false statements, tax evasion, violating Federal criminal tax laws, or receiving stolen property;

are not presently indicted for, or otherwise criminally or civilly charged by a

Government entity with, commission of any of these offenses enumerated in paragraph (h)(2) of this clause; and

-year period preceding this offer, been notified of any delinquent Federal taxes in an amount that exceeds $3,000 for which the liability remains unsatisfied.

(i) Taxes are considered delinquent if both of the following criteria apply:

(A) The tax liability is finally determined. The liability is finally determined if it has been assessed. A liability is not finally determined if there is a pending administrative or judicial challenge. In the case of a judicial challenge to the liability, the liability is not finally determined until all judicial appeal rights have been exhausted.

(B) The taxpayer is delinquent in making payment. A taxpayer is delinquent if the taxpayer has failed to pay the tax liability when full payment was due and required. A taxpayer is not delinquent in cases where enforced collection action is precluded.

(ii) Examples.

(A) The taxpayer has received a statutory notice of deficiency, under I.R.C. §6212, which entitles the taxpayer to seek Tax Court review of a proposed tax deficiency. This is not a delinquent tax because it is not a final tax liability. Should the taxpayer seek Tax Court review, this will not be a final tax liability until the taxpayer has exercised all judicial appeal rights.

(B) The IRS has filed a notice of Federal tax lien with respect to an assessed tax liability, and the taxpayer has been issued a notice under I.R.C. §6320 entitling the taxpayer to request a hearing with the IRS Office of Appeals contesting the lien filing, and to further appeal to the Tax Court if the IRS determines to sustain the lien filing. In the course of the hearing, the taxpayer is entitled to contest the underlying tax liability because the taxpayer has had no prior opportunity to contest the liability. This is not a delinquent tax because it is not a final tax liability. Should the taxpayer seek tax court review, this will not be a final tax liability until the taxpayer has exercised all judicial appeal rights.

(C) The taxpayer has entered into an installment agreement pursuant to I.R.C. §6159.

The taxpayer is making timely payments and is in full compliance with the agreement terms.

The taxpayer is not delinquent because the taxpayer is not currently required to make full payment.

(D) The taxpayer has filed for bankruptcy protection. The taxpayer is not delinquent because enforced collection action is stayed under 11 U.S.C. §362 (the Bankruptcy Code).

Bio Based Products and Certifications

Bio-Based Products/Certifications Background Congress passed a law to encourage the purchase of biobased products: the Farm Security and Rural Investment Act, Section 9002. Federal agencies must purchase designated biobased products and will establish agency preferential procurement programs for such products. Benefits of biobased products are to: enhance the nation's energy security by substituting domestically produced biobased products for fossil fuel based products derived from imported oil and natural gas; improve demands for biobased products to increase demand for agricultural commodities, which are the feedstock of biobased products; spur the development of value added agricultural processing and manufacturing in rural communities, which would create new jobs and income in rural regions; and establish an healthier environment for users.

Supplies, Materials, and Equipment to be Provided by the Contractor Unless otherwise specified herein, the Contractor shall furnish all supplies, materials, and equipment necessary for the performance of work under this contract. All supplies and materials shall be of a type and quality that conform to applicable Federal specifications and standards. All supplies, materials, and equipment to be used in the performance of work described herein are subject to the approval of the Contracting Officer's Technical

Representative (COTR).

The Contractor must submit to the COTR a list of product to be utilized in the performance of its work. The

Contractor shall not use any materials, chemicals, or compounds that the COTR determines to be unsuitable to perform the required work. The Contractor shall utilize products and material made from biobased materials (e.g., biobased cleaners, biobased degreasers, biobased laundry detergent) to the maximum extent possible. For the biobased content products evaluation, products proposed for use under this contract must conform to the Department of Agriculture (USDA) Designated Biobased Products List (DBPL). If requested in the contract, contractors shall provide data for their biobased solvents and cleaners to document the level of biobased content.
