About this file

This is a Disclosure Exemption Affidavit submitted by proposers in response to Request for Proposals F26001 issued by the State of Oregon's Business Development Department for Furthering Fair Housing Activities 2026. The affidavit serves as a formal declaration by an authorized representative of a proposing organization regarding information claimed to be exempt from public disclosure under Oregon's Public Records Law (ORS 192.311 through 192.478) and the Uniform Trade Secrets Act (ORS 646.461 through 646.475). The document requires the affiant to identify specific information contained in the proposal submission that the proposer believes qualifies for exemption from mandatory public disclosure, with the exemption categories and specific information to be listed in Exhibit A of the affidavit.

The affidavit establishes the legal framework for protecting information that constitutes trade secrets or proprietary business information, including formulas, plans, patterns, processes, tools, production data, customer lists, cost data, and compilations of information that derive independent economic value from not being publicly disclosed and are subject to reasonable efforts to maintain secrecy. The affiant must be an employee with full authority to represent the proposer and must attest under penalty of perjury that the claimed exempt information meets the statutory definitions. The document acknowledges that final determination of disclosure exemptions may depend on official or judicial determination made in accordance with Oregon Public Records Law. Notarization is required, with the notary public completing the signature block and recording their commission expiration date.

ATTACHMENT B — disclosure exemption AFFIDAVIT ____________________ (Affiant), being first duly sworn under oath, and representing [insert Proposer Name] (hereafter “Proposer”), hereby deposes and swears or affirms under penalty of perjury that:

I am an employee of the Proposer, I have knowledge of the Request for Proposals referenced herein, and I have full authority from the Proposer to submit this affidavit and accept the responsibilities stated herein.

I am aware that the Proposer has submitted a Proposal, dated on or about [insert date] (the “Proposal”), to the State of Oregon (State) in response to Request for Proposals RFP F26001, for Furthering Fair Housing Activities 2026 RFP, and I am familiar with the contents of the RFP and Proposal.

I have read and am familiar with the provisions of Oregon’s Public Records Law, Oregon Revised Statutes (“ORS”) 192.311 through 192.478, and the Uniform Trade Secrets Act as adopted by the State of Oregon, which is set forth in ORS 646.461 through ORS 646.475. I understand that the Proposal is a public record held by a public body and is subject to disclosure under the Oregon Public Records Law unless specifically exempt from disclosure under that law.

I have reviewed the information contained in the Proposal. The Proposer believes the information listed in Exhibit A is exempt from public disclosure (collectively, the “Exempt Information”), which is incorporated herein by this reference. It is my opinion that the Exempt Information is exempt from disclosure under Oregon’s Public Records Law under the specifically designated sections as set forth in Exhibit A or constitutes “Trade Secrets” under either the Oregon Public Records Law or the Uniform Trade Secrets Act as adopted in Oregon because that information is either:

A formula, plan, pattern, process, tool, mechanism, compound, procedure, production data, or compilation of information that:

is not patented, is known only to certain individuals within the Proposer’s organization and that is used in a business the Proposer conducts, has actual or potential commercial value, and gives its user an opportunity to obtain a business advantage over competitors who do not know or use it.

or Information, including a drawing, cost data, customer list, formula, pattern, compilation, program, device, method, technique or process that:

Derives independent economic value, actual or potential, from not being generally known to the public or to other persons who can obtain economic value from its disclosure or use; and Is the subject of efforts by the Proposer that are reasonable under the circumstances to maintain its secrecy.

I understand that disclosure of the information referenced in Exhibit A may depend on official or judicial determinations made in accordance with the Public Records Law.
