NOTICE TO VENDORS: PAYMENT OF TARIFF CHARGES

The imposition of a tariff by the government does not automatically result in a charge to the consumer, unless it can be proven that the tariff charge is directly incurred on the good supplied. According to our policy, tariffs must be verifiable:

“The General Manager may authorize payment to contractors for verifiable tariff claims and directly-affected contractor costs for legally-required performance and payment bonds and contractually-required insurance cost increases. However, no contractor overhead charges claimed to be affected by tariffs are compensable. For a contractor to be reimbursed for tariff costs, it must submit to the Authority documentation specifically detailing the specific tariff costs imposed.”

To demonstrate that the tariff charge was directly incurred on the commodity being supplied, please submit, along with your quote/invoice, the supporting documentation. If we do not receive the supporting document to justify the tariff charge, the invoice will be paid less the tariff amount.
