Proposal as non-responsive if the Contractor does not have a current Tax Clearance

Certificate at the time of the contract award.

The Application Form can be completed and submitted on-line, by mail, or by fax. After the Contractor submits the Application, KDOR will provide the Contractor a Transaction ID number. The Contractor shall use the Transaction

ID number to retrieve the Tax Clearance Certificate. Decisions on on-line applications are generally available the following business day.

After the Contractor obtains the Tax Clearance Certificate, the Contractor shall insert on this Required Contract Provision the Confirmation Number contained in the Certificate or the Contractor shall submit a copy of the Tax Clearance Certificate to the KDOT Bureau of Construction and Materials by hand delivery, mail, e-mail or fax. Before awarding a contract, the Bureau of Construction and Materials will authenticate the Certificate through the Confirmation Number inserted on this Required Contract Provision or contained on the Certificate submitted.

If the Contractor is unable to retrieve the Tax Clearance Certificate or if KDOR denies the Contractor's Application for Tax Clearance, the Contractor shall call KDOR's Special

Projects Team at 785-296-3199 to determine why KDOR failed to issue the certificate.

Tax Clearance Certificates are valid for 90 days after issue. To renew a clearance, submit a new Tax Clearance Application. Information pertaining to a Tax Clearance is subject to change for various reasons, including a state tax audit, federal tax audit, agent actions, hearings, and other legal actions.

REQUIRED CONTRACT PROVISION

FEDERAL-AID CONTRACTS

PROHIBITION ON COVERED TELECOMMUNICATIONS EQUIPMENT OR SERVICES

PURSUANT TO SECTION 889 OF THE NATIONAL DEFENSE AUTHORIZATION ACT (2019)

As of August 13, 2020, recipients and subrecipients of federal aid funds are prohibited from obligating or expending loan or grant funds to procure or obtain; extend or renew a contract to procure or obtain; or enter into a contract (or extend or renew a contract) to procure or obtain equipment, services, or systems that use Covered Telecommunications Equipment or Services as a substantial or essential component of any system, or as critical technology as part of any system. See Section 889 of Public Law 115-232 (National Defense Authorization Act 2019)(NDAA). In addition to preventing direct purchases of such Covered Telecommunications Equipment or Services, federal law prevents KDOT, LPA’s, and their Contractors from using federal aid funds to pay for Covered Telecommunications Equipment or Services that the Contractor may use on a Project. Costs for such Covered Telecommunications Equipment or Services are unallowable under 2 CFR 200.216 and 2 CFR 200.471.

The term ‘‘Covered Telecommunications Equipment or Services’’ means any of the following:

Telecommunications equipment produced by and/or telecommunications services provided by Huawei Technologies Company, ZTE Corporation, Hytera Communications Corporation, Hangzhou Hikvision Digital Technology Company, or Dahua Technology Company (or any subsidiary or affiliate of such entities).

Video surveillance equipment produced by and/or video surveillance services provided by Huawei Technologies Company, ZTE Corporation, Hytera Communications Corporation, Hangzhou Hikvision Digital Technology Company, or Dahua Technology Company (or any subsidiary or affiliate of such entities).

Telecommunications and/or video surveillance services provided by third parties that are using equipment produced by Huawei Technologies Company, ZTE Corporation, Hytera Communications Corporation, Hangzhou Hikvision Digital Technology Company, or Dahua Technology Company (or any subsidiary or affiliate of such entities) in performing such services.

Telecommunications or video surveillance equipment or services produced or provided by an entity that the Secretary of Defense, in consultation with the Director of the National Intelligence or the Director of the Federal Bureau of Investigation, reasonably believes to be an entity owned or controlled by, or otherwise connected to, the government of a covered foreign country [defined under 889(f)(2) as “the People’s Republic of China”].

As a Contractor on a federal-aid construction contract with the Secretary of Transportation, as the principal contracting party for the State of Kansas or as the agent for a disclosed Local Public Authority (LPA), the Contractor shall not be required to provide to KDOT or the LPA Covered Telecommunications Equipment or Services in the performance of any contract, subcontract, supply contract, or other contractual instrument resulting from or associated with this Project. The Contractor will notify KDOT if the Contractor believes the Project scope requires the acquisition of any Covered Telecommunications Equipment or Services.

Current federal law does not prohibit the Contractor from using Covered Telecommunications Equipment or Services on the Project; however, the costs of Covered Telecommunications Equipment or Services are federal-aid non-participating. Thus, the Contractor shall notify KDOT or the LPA if the Contractor and/or any of its subcontractors or suppliers at any tier are using Covered Telecommunications Equipment or Services on the Project. This notice is necessary so KDOT can reimburse the Contractor with state funds, local funds, or a combination thereof rather than with federal-aid funds.

12-17-20 Sheet 2 of 2

The Contractor will ensure that this Required Contract Provision is included in all subcontracts, supply agreements, and other contractual instruments resulting from or associated with this Project, so the prohibition is made binding on all subcontractors and suppliers at any tier. For purposes of this Required Contract Provision, the term subcontractors and suppliers shall have the broadest application to include manufacturers, producers, and all other entities that have a contractual instrument resulting from or associated with this Project.

FHWA-1273 – Revised June 25, 2026

CONTRACT PROVISIONS FOR

FEDERAL-AID CONSTRUCTION CONTRACTS

I. General II. Nondiscrimination III. Davis-Bacon and Related Act Provisions IV. Contract Work Hours and Safety Standards Act

Provisions V. Subletting or Assigning the Contract VI. Safety: Accident Prevention VII. False Statements Concerning Highway Projects VIII. Implementation of Clean Air Act and Federal Water

Pollution Control Act IX. Certification Regarding Debarment, Suspension, Ineligibility and Voluntary Exclusion X. Certification Regarding Use of Contract Funds for

Lobbying XI. Use of United States-Flag Vessels

ATTACHMENTS

A. Employment and Materials Preference for Appalachian Development Highway System or Appalachian Local Access Road Contracts (included in Appalachian contracts only).

I. GENERAL

1. Historically, contracting agencies using Federal-aid highway funds were required to ensure Form FHWA-1273 was physically incorporated into all contracts and subcontracts.

Effective June 10, 2026, this requirement was eliminated [91 FR 25492]. Future use of Form FHWA-1273 is now optional on the part of the contracting agency using Federal-aid highway funds. FHWA continues to make Form FHWA-1273 available as a convenience to contracting agencies. Contracting agencies must continue to ensure compliance with the provisions cited in Form FHWA-1273 in accordance with the provisions regardless of the use of Form FHWA-1273.

Accordingly, the contracting agency retains the authority to determine whether the contractor must use Form FHWA-1273 to physically incorporate required contract provisions in each subcontract and in lower tier contracts. Where permitted by the contracting agency, the contractor may choose other ways to include required contract provisions in each subcontract, besides incorporating Form FHWA-1273. Contract provisions in Form FHWA-1273 are not required to be physically included in subcontracts for design services on Federal-aid design-build contracts, or in purchase orders, rental agreements and other agreements for supplies or services.

The applicable provisions of Form FHWA-1273 are incorporated by reference for work done under any purchase order, rental agreement or agreement for other services. The prime contractor or design-builder shall be responsible for compliance by any subcontractor, lower-tier subcontractor or service provider.

Contracting agencies may reference Form FHWA-1273 in solicitation-for-bids or request-for-proposals documents.

2. Subject to the applicability criteria noted in the following sections, these contract provisions shall apply to all work performed on the contract by the contractor's own organization and with the assistance of workers under the contractor's immediate superintendence and to all work performed on the contract by piecework, station work, or by subcontract.

3. A breach of any of the stipulations contained in these Required Contract Provisions may be sufficient grounds for withholding of progress payments, withholding of final payment, termination of the contract, suspension / debarment or any other action determined to be appropriate by the contracting agency and FHWA.

4. Selection of Labor: During the performance of this contract, the contractor shall not use convict labor for any purpose within the limits of a construction project on a Federal-aid highway unless it is labor performed by convicts who are on parole, supervised release, or probation. 23 U.S.C. 114(b).

The term Federal-aid highway does not include roadways functionally classified as local roads or rural minor collectors.

23 U.S.C. 101(a).

II. NONDISCRIMINATION

The contractor and all subcontractors must comply with the following policies: 29 CFR Parts 1625-1627, 23 U.S.C. 140, Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, as amended (29 U.S.C. 794), Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, as amended (42 U.S.C. 2000d et seq.), and related regulations including 49 CFR Parts 21, 26, and 27, including any amendments thereto.

Note: The U.S. Department of Labor has exclusive authority to determine compliance with 29 CFR Parts 1625-1627. The contracting agency and the FHWA have the authority and the responsibility to ensure compliance with 23 U.S.C. 140, Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, as amended (29 U.S.C. 794), and Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, as amended (42 U.S.C. 2000d et seq.), and related regulations including 49 CFR Parts 21, 26, and 27, including any amendments thereto.

The provisions of the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 (42 U.S.C. 12101 et seq.) set forth under 28 CFR Part 35 and 29 CFR Part 1630 are incorporated by reference in this contract.

1. Assurances Required:

a. The requirements of 49 CFR Part 26, including any amendments thereto, and the State DOT’s FHWA-approved Disadvantaged Business Enterprise (DBE) program are incorporated by reference.

b. The contractor, subrecipient or subcontractor shall not discriminate on the basis of race, color, national origin, or sex in the performance of this contract. The contractor shall carry out applicable requirements of 49 CFR part 26, including any amendments thereto, in the award and administration of DOT-assisted contracts. Failure by the contractor to carry out these requirements is a material breach of this contract, which may result in the termination of this contract or such other remedy as the recipient deems appropriate, which may include, but is not limited to:

(1) Withholding monthly progress payments;

(2) Assessing sanctions;

(3) Liquidated damages; and/or

(4) Disqualifying the contractor from future bidding as non-responsible.

c. The Title VI and nondiscrimination provisions of U.S.

DOT Order 1050.2A at Appendixes A and E, including any amendments thereto, are incorporated by reference. 49 CFR Part 21.

III. DAVIS-BACON AND RELATED ACT PROVISIONS

This section is applicable to all Federal-aid construction projects exceeding $2,000 and to all related subcontracts and lower-tier subcontracts (regardless of subcontract size), in accordance with 29 CFR 5.5.
