This is an Anti-Human Trafficking Affidavit required by Okaloosa County, Florida for all nongovernmental entities that contract, renew, or extend contracts with the county. The affidavit is mandatory under Florida Statute Section 787.06(13), effective July 1, 2024, and must be executed by an officer or representative of the contracting entity. The document pertains to the West Sunset Lift Station project, wherein the Board of County Commissioners of Okaloosa County is seeking a contractor to furnish and install a tremie style wetwell along with pumps and electrical systems to replace an existing lift station. The affidavit requires the executing officer to attest, under penalty of perjury, that they are over 21 years of age and have personal knowledge of the entity's labor practices.

The affidavit mandates that the contracting nongovernmental entity does not use coercion for labor or services as defined under Florida Statutes Section 787.06(2)(a). The entity must certify it does not engage in seven specific prohibited actions: using or threatening physical force against persons; restraining, isolating, or confining persons without lawful authority; establishing debt through pledged labor or services without proper value application; destroying or withholding government identification or immigration documents; causing or threatening financial harm; enticing or luring persons through fraud or deceit; or providing controlled substances for exploitation purposes. The affidavit must be notarized and executed before a notary public, with the notary required to verify the identity of the signatory through personal knowledge or identification documents.
