About this file
This is a Federal Terms and Conditions attachment document applicable to state and local contracts receiving federal funding, specifically addressing compliance requirements for the Oregon Health Authority's proficiency testing procurement for ORELAP-accredited cannabis testing laboratories. The document establishes mandatory federal regulatory compliance standards that the contractor and all subcontractors must follow throughout the contract performance period. The contract involves proficiency testing services for cannabis laboratories, with the Oregon State Public Health Laboratory facilitating the effort and Phenova serving as the service provider. The procurement is structured as a sole-source contract with a proposed ten-year term and no specific response deadline or bidder conference details outlined in the federal terms section itself.
The federal terms and conditions impose extensive compliance obligations across multiple regulatory frameworks, including equal employment opportunity requirements under Executive Order 11246, Davis-Bacon Act prevailing wage standards, Copeland Anti-Kickback Act provisions, Contract Work Hours and Safety Standards Act overtime requirements, and various environmental compliance standards under the Clean Air and Clean Water Acts. The document mandates compliance with debarment and suspension regulations, Byrd Anti-Lobbying Amendment requirements for contracts exceeding $100,000, intellectual property rights provisions establishing federal government licensing rights to products developed with grant funds, drug-free workplace policies, non-discrimination provisions under the Civil Rights Act, Rehabilitation Act, Age Discrimination Act, and Title IX, whistleblower protections, and prohibitions against trafficking in persons and child labor. The contractor must also maintain audit compliance if federal awards exceed $750,000 annually and provide preference for domestically-produced materials where practicable. No specific funding amount or budget is identified in the federal terms attachment, as these provisions apply broadly to any federally-funded state or local contract meeting the specified thresholds.

For purposes of this Contract, all references to federal and state laws are references to federal and state laws as they may be amended from time to time.
A. Provisions required by 2 CFR § 200.327 and 2 CFR part 200, Appendix II
1. Equal Employment Opportunity. If this Contract, including amendments, is for more than $10,000, then Contractor shall comply with Executive Order 11246, entitled “Equal Employment Opportunity,” as amended by Executive Order 11375, and as supplemented in Department of Labor regulations (41 CFR Part 60). The Executive Order prohibits contractors and federally-assisted construction contractors and subcontractors who do over $10,000 in Government business in one year from discriminating in employment decisions on the basis of race, color, religion, sex, or national origin. The Executive Order also requires contractors to take affirmative action to ensure that equal opportunity is provided in all aspects of their employment.
During the performance of the Contract, Contractor agrees as follows:
1.1 Contractor will not discriminate against any employee or applicant for employment because of race, color, religion, sex, or national origin. Contractor will take affirmative action to ensure that applicants are employed, and that employees are treated during employment without regard to their race, color, religion, sex, or national origin. Such action shall include, but not be limited to the following: Employment, upgrading, demotion, or transfer; recruitment or recruitment advertising; layoff or termination; rates of pay or other forms of compensation; and selection for training, including apprenticeship. Contractor agrees to post in conspicuous places, available to employees and applicants for employment, notices to be provided setting forth the provisions of this nondiscrimination clause.
1.2 Contractor will, in all solicitations or advertisements for employees placed by or on behalf of Contractor, state that all qualified applicants will receive considerations for employment without regard to race, color, religion, sex, or national origin.
1.3 Contractor will not discharge or in any other manner discriminate against any employee or applicant for employment because such employee or applicant has inquired about, discussed, or disclosed the compensation of the employee or applicant or another employee or applicant. This provision shall not apply to instances in which an employee who has access to the compensation information of other employees or applicants as a part of such employee’s essential job functions discloses the compensation of such other employees or applicants to individuals who do not otherwise have access to such information, unless such disclosure is in response to a formal complaint or charge, in furtherance of an investigation, proceeding, hearing, or action, including an investigation conducted by the employer, or is consistent with Contractor’s legal duty to furnish information.
1.4 Contractor will send to each labor union or representative of workers with which Contractor has a collective bargaining agreement or other contract or understanding, a notice to be provided advising the said labor union or workers' representatives of Contractor's commitments under this section and shall post copies of the notice in conspicuous places available to employees and applicants for employment.
1.5 Contractor will comply with all provisions of Executive Order 11246 of September 24, 1965, and of the rules, regulations, and relevant orders of the Secretary of Labor.
1.6 Contractor will furnish all information and reports required by Executive Order 11246 of September 24, 1965, and by rules, regulations, and orders of the Secretary of Labor, or pursuant thereto, and will permit access to his books, records, and accounts by the administering agency and the Secretary of Labor for purposes of investigation to ascertain compliance with such rules, regulations, and orders.
1.7 In the event of Contractor's noncompliance with the nondiscrimination clauses of this Contract or with any of the said rules, regulations, or orders, this Contract may be canceled, terminated, or suspended in whole or in part and the Contractor may be declared ineligible for further Government contracts or federally assisted construction contracts in accordance with procedures authorized in Executive Order 11246 of September 24, 1965, and such other sanctions as may be imposed and remedies invoked as provided in Executive Order 11246 of September 24, 1965, or by rule, regulation, or order of the Secretary of Labor, or as otherwise provided by law.

Contractor will take such action with respect to any subcontract or purchase order as the administering agency may direct as a means of enforcing such provisions, including sanctions for noncompliance:
Provided, however, that in the event Contractor becomes involved in, or is threatened with, litigation with a subcontractor or vendor as a result of such direction by the administering agency Contractor may request the United States to enter into such litigation to protect the interests of the United States.
