About this file
This document is a Certification for Disclosure of Lobbying Activities form from the Florida Department of Transportation, designed to ensure transparency in federal-aid contract procurement. The related contract opportunity is for Construction Engineering Inspection (CEI) Services for Lanier Drive from Toni Street to SR 742 Creighton Road, a Local Agency Program (LAP) project with the Federal Project Number 444222-2-68-01. Escambia County is soliciting Letters of Interest from qualified firms to provide construction engineering inspection services, with all meetings to be conducted via Microsoft Teams. The solicitation encourages participation from small businesses, minority/women-owned businesses, and disadvantaged business enterprises.
The document emphasizes strict compliance with federal lobbying disclosure requirements, including prohibitions on using federal appropriated funds to influence government officials and mandating detailed reporting of any lobbying activities. The certification requires participants to include lobbying disclosure language in all subcontracts exceeding $100,000, with potential civil penalties of $10,000 to $100,000 for non-compliance. While specific budget details are not provided, the project appears to be federally funded, with Escambia County managing the procurement process and promoting inclusive participation from diverse business segments.
