About this file

This is a Byrd Anti-Lobbying Amendment Certification Form issued by the County of San Diego for use in federal contract, grant, loan, and cooperative agreement transactions. The form serves as a mandatory certification that no federal appropriated funds will be used to influence or lobby officers or employees of federal agencies, Congress, or congressional staff members in connection with the awarding or modification of federal contracts, grants, loans, or cooperative agreements. The certification must be completed and signed by an authorized official of the contractor or offeror and submitted as a prerequisite for entering into the transaction.

The form requires contractors to disclose any non-federal funds that may be used for lobbying activities by completing and submitting Standard Form-LLL in accordance with its instructions. Contractors must also ensure that identical certification language is included in all subaward documents at all tiers, including subcontracts and subgrants, with all subrecipients required to certify and disclose accordingly. Failure to submit the required certification subjects the contractor to civil penalties ranging from $10,000 to $100,000 for each failure, and the form explicitly invokes the provisions of 31 U.S.C. Chapter 38 regarding administrative remedies for false claims and statements.
