Note:
A bid shall not be considered for award, nor shall any award be made where paragraphs 1, 2 and
3 above have not been complied with and this Declaration signed to certify same: provided, however, that if in any case the bidder cannot make the foregoing declaration, the bidder shall so state and shall furnish with the bid a signed statement which sets forth in detail the reason therefore. Where any one or more of Paragraphs 1, 2 and 3 above have not been complied with, the bid shall not be considered for award, nor shall any award be made to the bidder, unless and until the head of the purchasing unit of TARTA, or his or her designee, determines that such disclosure was not made for the purpose of restricting competition.
The fact that a bidder (a) has published price lists, rates or tariffs covering items being procured or provided, (b) has informed prospective customers of proposed or pending publication of new or revised price lists for such items, or (c) has sold the same items to other customers at the same prices being bid, does not constitute, without more, collusion, consultation, communication, or agreement within the meaning of paragraph 1, disclosure within the meaning of Paragraph 2, or agreement within the meaning of paragraph 4.
