This is an Anti-Trust Laws Questionnaire issued by the County of San Mateo for a Job Order Contract for Hazardous Materials services at various county-owned facilities designated as Project Nos. JOC 2619, 2620, and 2621. The questionnaire must be completed in full and submitted with the bid submission. The document requires bidders to provide company name, date, and the name of the person completing the form.

The questionnaire consists of four primary questions designed to ensure compliance with California and Federal Anti-Trust Laws. Question 1 asks whether bid depository or registry services were used to obtain subcontractor bid figures. Question 2 requires listing any subcontractors utilizing bid depository or registry services if the answer to Question 1 is affirmative. Question 3 inquires whether the bidder obtained subcontractor bids from sources other than bid depositories. Question 4 addresses whether any person or group has threatened the bidder with subcontractor boycotts, union boycotts, or other sanctions to compel use of bid depository services or compliance with their rules. If threats have been made, bidders must provide the date, name of the threatening party, nature of the threats, and any additional comments. This questionnaire serves as a compliance mechanism to identify and prevent potential anti-trust violations in the bidding process.
