Project sponsors are required to make the following good faith efforts to engage disadvantaged business enterprises (DBEs) in New Jersey Water Bank projects whenever procuring construction, equipment, services, and supplies under an EPA financial assistance agreement 40 CFR Part 33 Subpart C.

The six good faith efforts required for DBE engagement are:

Ensure DBEs are made aware of contracting opportunities to the fullest extent practicable through outreach and recruitment activities.

Make information on forthcoming opportunities available to DBEs, arrange time frames for contracts, and establish delivery schedules, where the requirements permit, in a way that encourages and facilitates participation by DBEs in the competitive process. This includes, whenever possible, posting solicitations for bids or proposals for a minimum of 30 calendar days before the bid or proposal closing date.

Consider in the contracting process whether firms competing for large contracts could subcontract with DBEs. This will include dividing total requirements when economically feasible into smaller tasks or quantities to permit maximum participation by DBEs in the competitive process.

Encourage contracting with a consortium of DBEs when a contract is too large for one of these firms to handle individually.

Use the services and assistance of organizations and agencies.

If the contractor awards subcontracts, require the contractor to take the steps in items 1 through 5.

BIDs must be submitted in the manner designated in the Instructions. BIDs must be submitted online ONLY via the link on the Township's website. BIDs must be received by the website's "lockbox"; and submitted by Thursday, October 29, 2026 at 11:00 am prevailing time.

Laws of 1963, effective January 1,1974.
