FAR 52.215-5 FACSIMILE PROPOSALS (OCT 1997)

(a) Definition. "Facsimile proposal," as used in this provision, means a proposal, revision or modification of a proposal, or withdrawal of a proposal that is transmitted to and received by the Government via facsimile machine.

(b) Offerors may submit facsimile proposals as responses to this solicitation. Facsimile proposals are subject to the same rules as paper proposals.

(c) The telephone number of receiving facsimile equipment is: 541-750-7236

(d) If any portion of a facsimile proposal received by the Contracting Officer is unreadable to the degree that conformance to the essential requirements of the solicitation cannot be ascertained from the document--

(1) The Contracting Officer immediately shall notify the offeror and permit the offeror to resubmit the proposal.

(2) The method and time for resubmission shall be prescribed by the Contracting Officer after consultation with the offeror; and

(3) The resubmission shall be considered as if it were received at the date and time of the original unreadable submission for the purpose of determining timelines, provided the offeror complies with the time and format requirements for resubmission prescribed by the Contracting Officer.

(e) The Government reserves the right to make award solely on the facsimile proposal. However, if requested to do so by the Contracting Officer, the apparently successful offeror promptly shall submit the complete original signed proposal.

DESIGNATION OF CONTRACTING OFFICER'S REPRESENTATIVE

The Contracting Officer designates the Contracting Officer's Representative (COR).

The COR is responsible for administering the performance of work under this contract. In no event, however, will any understanding, agreement, modification, change order, or other matter deviating from the terms of this contract be effective or binding upon the Government unless formalized by proper contractual documents executed by the Contracting Officer prior to completion of the contract.

The Contracting Officer should be informed as soon as possible of any actions or inactions by the Contractor or the Government, which will change the required delivery or completion times stated in the contract, and the contract will be modified accordingly. (This does not apply to individual task assignments which were issued by the COR provided they do not affect the delivery schedule or performance period stated in the contract.)

On all matters that pertain to the contract terms the Contractor must communicate with the Contracting Officer.

Whenever, in the opinion of the Contractor, the COR requests effort outside the scope of the contract, the Contractor should so advise the COR. If the COR persists and there still exists a disagreement as to proper contractual coverage, the Contracting Officer should be notified immediately, preferably in writing if time permits. Proceeding with work without proper contractual coverage could result in nonpayment or necessitate submittal of a contract claim.

SUPERINTENDENCE BY THE CONTRACTOR (FAR 52.236-6)(APR 1984)

At all times during performance of this contract and until the work is completed and accepted, the Contractor shall directly superintend the work or assign and have on the work a competent superintendent who is satisfactory to the Contracting Officer and has authority to act for the Contractor.

CONTRACTOR'S REPRESENTATIVE

The Government may, at its option, suspend work with full count of contract time continuing, if the Contractor fails to provide a Contractor's Representative (1) conversant in the English language and (2) able to read and understand the contract.

NOTIFICATION OF SUBCONTRACTING

The Contractor shall promptly notify the Contracting Officer upon entering into any subcontract arrangement.

The notification shall include as a minimum:

1. The name, address, and telephone number of the subcontractor.

2. The date upon which the subcontract was entered into and its duration.

3. A detailed description of the work being subcontracted including a listing of contract items, units, etc., as appropriate.

POST AWARD CONFERENCE (AGAR 452.215-73)(NOV 1996)

A post award conference with the successful offeror is required. It will be scheduled and held within 15 days after the date of contract award. The conference will be held at the Headquarters of the Willamette National Forest, 211 E. 7th, Eugene, OR, or at the District Ranger Station.

COMMENCEMENT, PROSECUTION, AND COMPLETION OF WORK (FAR 52.211-10) (APR 1984)

The Contractor shall be required to (a) commence work under this contract within 3 calendar days after the date the Contractor receives the notice to proceed, (b) prosecute the work diligently, and (c) complete the entire work ready for use not later than times listed below. The time stated for completion shall include final cleanup of the premises.

Item Estimated Beginning Date Contract Time

1 January 1, 2009 Through December 31, 2009

Option year may be exercised for the period of January 1, 2010 through December 31, 2010.

CONTRACTOR QUALITY CONTROL PLAN

A. Quality Control Plan

The Contractor shall provide a Quality Control Plan (QCP) as part of this Technical Proposal. The Plan must demonstrate how the Contractor shall assure that quality of performance meets the objectives and requirements of the contract. The QCP shall specify:

- How quality will be monitored to ensure performance standards are met.

- How the work will be supervised.

- Identify the personnel responsible for performing quality control.

- How results of the monitoring will result in quality performance.

- Create a checklist or plan for inspection of the building that covers all services stated in the “Performance Standards and Guidelines”.

- A system to ensure that the Contractor’s employees are notified of any deficiencies in their area of responsibility.

- A plan to monitor and correct customer complaints.

- A plan for immediately forwarding customer complaints that are not the responsibility of the Contractor to the COR.

B. Contractor Quality Control Inspection

The Contractor shall assure themselves that performance meets contract specifications, in accordance with FAR 52.212-4, Contract Terms and Conditions -- Commercial Items, paragraph (a), prior to requesting the Government to inspect for payment or acceptance. The Contractor shall contact the Contracting Officer upon completion of a unit. The Contracting Officer may observe the Contractor’s inspection at any time and shall otherwise have unlimited access to the inspection data.

Failure by the Contractor to implement the approved plan and pursue it diligently from the commencement of the contract may be considered grounds for default.

INSPECTION

The Government will visually inspect the Contractor’s performance on a random basis under this contract to ensure compliance with contract guidelines. The COR will record inspection observations and will document deficiencies through a written inspection report provided to the Contractor. When unacceptable performance is observed, the COR will meet with the Contractor’s on-site supervisor to review the inspection report and ensure that the Contractor has an understanding of the unacceptable services. The preferred method to resolve deficiencies is to allow re-performance to correct the deficiencies. The Contractor shall be provided with the opportunity to correct substandard performance within one business day. When substandard performance is not corrected within the specified timeframe or the Contractor refuses to re-perform the service, the unsatisfactory service is then logged as a deficiency.

PERFORMANCE OBJECTIVES

The Contractor service requirements are summarized into performance objectives that relate directly to the essential services provided. The stated performance thresholds are the minimum acceptable levels of service for each stated requirement. All aspects of Contractor performance are subject to Government surveillance, and absence of any contract requirements from the Performance objectives identified below will not detract from the enforceability, nor limit the rights or remedies of the Government under other contract clauses.

Performance Objective Performance Threshold

Perform all services required in accordance with the Statement of Work on weekly basis

Not to exceed 1 valid complaint of unsatisfactory per week

PAYMENT

Payment will be made on a monthly basis for janitorial services that have been satisfactorily provided. The Contractor will submit an invoice each month along with the completed inspection checklist from the Quality Control Plan. The Government will review the performance as compared to contract standards, the Quality Assurance Plan and the Performance Objectives. Monthly payments to the Contractor will be reduced for logged deficiencies, as described in the Inspection clause. Deductions for deficiencies shall be calculated as 1/30th of the unit price for each day the Contractor fails to correct the deficiency.

SUSPENSIONS OF WORK FOR OTHER THAN GOVERNMENT'S CONVENIENCE

The Contracting Officer may issue orders to suspend the work wholly or in part for such period of time as deemed necessary because of: (1) weather or ground conditions when further prosecution of the work might cause environmental or resource damage to the project, access roads to the project, or adjacent property. Such action would include but not be limited to instances such as siltation of streams, damage to access roads, rutting of project roads which causes otherwise suitable soils to be muddy or unsuitable; or (2) failure of the Contractor to comply with specifications such as but not limited to placement of frozen material in fills, placing of asphalts at temperatures lower than those specified, performing work prior to prerequisite approvals, operating equipment not meeting fire requirements, or when conditions exist which do not meet safety requirements. Whether or not a suspend work notice is issued, the Contractor shall be responsible for correcting any damage caused by its operation, whether inside or outside project limits, at no cost to the Government. Such suspensions shall not be considered as suspensions for the Convenience of the Government under FAR 52.242-14, Suspension of Work, and shall not qualify for an equitable adjustment.

USE OF PREMISES

A. The Contractor shall comply with the regulations governing the operation of premises that are occupied and shall perform his contract in such a manner as not to interrupt or interfere with the conduct of Government business.

B. Before any camp is opened or operated on National Forest land or lands administered by the Forest Service, the Contractor shall request permission (in writing) from the COR. A camp is interpreted to include the campsite or trailer parking area of any employee working on the project for the Contractor. If permission is granted, a camping permit will be issued. (NOT APPLICABLE)

C. It is further stipulated that in addition to clean up of any campsites, the Contractor shall remove its equipment from National Forest land before final acceptance and payment of the project. (NOT

APPLICABLE)

PROPERTY AND PERSONAL DAMAGE

(a) The Contractor shall use every precaution necessary to prevent damage to public and private property.

Land monuments and property markers shall not be disturbed until the Contracting Officer, or his/her representative, has witnessed or otherwise referenced their location and directed their removal.

(b) The Contractor shall be responsible for all damage to property and to persons, including third parties, that occur as a result of his/her agent's or employee's fault or negligence. The term "third parties" is construed to include employees of the government.

PUBLIC OFFICIALS NOT PERSONALLY LIABLE

There shall be no personal liability upon the Contracting Officer or officer in charge, their agents or employees, for any act performed in the discharge of any duty imposed or the exercise of any power or authority conferred upon them, by, or with the scope of the contract, it being understood that in all such matters they act solely as agents and representatives of the Government.

TRASH AND REFUSE MATERIAL

Contractor shall remove all of his/her own trash and refuse from the contract area. Material to be removed includes, but is not limited to: used engine oil, oil filters, oil cans, grease cartridges, camp refuse such as tin cans, paper garbage, etc. All placement of sanitary facilities will require prior approval of the Contracting Officer.

STORAGE OF MATERIALS AND EQUIPMENT

Materials shall be stored to assure the preservation of their quality and fitness for work. Approved portions of the right-of-way or other areas on Government land may be used for storage purposes. All storage sites approved by the Government shall be restored to a satisfactory condition at the Contractor's expense.

OPTION TO EXTEND THE TERM OF THE CONTRACT (FAR 52.217-9) (MAR 2000)

(a) The Government may extend the term of this contract by written notice to the Contractor within 30 calendar days of the expiration date of the contract; provided, that the Government shall give the Contractor a preliminary written notice of its intent to extend at least 60 days before the contract expires. The preliminary notice does not commit the Government to an extension.

(b) If the Government exercises this option, the extended contract shall be considered to include this option clause.

(c) The total duration of this contract, including the exercise of any options under this clause, shall not exceed 2 years.

AGAR 452.237-74 KEY PERSONNEL (FEB 1988)

(a) The Contractor shall assign to this contract the following key personnel:

• Project Manager

• On-Site Supervisor

(b) During the first ninety (90) days of performance, the Contractor shall make no substitutions of key personnel unless the substitution is necessitated by illness, death, or termination of employment. The Contractor shall notify the Contracting Officer within 15 calendar days after the occurrence of any of these events and provide the information required by paragraph (c) below. After the initial 90-day period, the Contractor shall submit the information required by paragraph (c) to the Contracting Officer at least 15 days prior to making any permanent substitutions.

(c) The Contractor shall provide a detailed explanation of the circumstances necessitating the proposed substitutions, complete resumes for the proposed substitutes, and any additional information requested by the Contracting Officer. Proposed substitutes should have comparable qualifications to those of the persons being replaced. The Contracting Officer will notify the Contractor within 15 calendar days after receipt of all required information of the decision on substitutions. The contract will be modified to reflect any approved changes of key personnel.

FAR 52.204-9 PERSONAL IDENTITY VERIFICATION OF CONTRACTOR PERSONNEL

FSAR 4G52.222-701 EMPLOYMENT OF ELIGIBLE WORKERS (DEC 1999)

Section 274A of the Immigration and Nationality Act (8 USC 1324a) makes it unlawful for an employer to hire undocumented workers. The Immigration and Naturalization Service (INS) has established the Form I-9, Employment Eligibility Verification Form, as the document to be used for employment eligibility verification (see 8 CFR 274a).

The contractor is required to (1) have all employees complete and sign the I-9 Form to certify that they are eligible for employment; (2) examine documents presented by the employee and ensure the documents appear to be genuine and related to the individual; (3) record information about the documents on the form, and complete the certification portion of the form; (4) retain the form for three years, or one year past the end of employment of the individual, whichever is longer.

It is illegal to discriminate against any individual (other than a citizen of another country who is not authorized to work in the United States) in hiring, discharging, or recruiting because of that individual's national origin or citizenship status.

Compliance with Section 274A of the Immigration and Nationality Act (8 U.S.C. 1324a) is a material condition of the contract. If the contractor employs unauthorized workers during contract performance in violation of section 274A, the Government may terminate the contract, in addition to other remedies or penalties prescribed by law.

For further information on the requirements of the Act, contractors should contact the Employer and Labor Relations Officer of their local INS office.

PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT

1. The contractor will train in the safe operation and use of equipment to all workers using such equipment.

2. Personal protective equipment, including personal protective equipment for eyes, face, head, and extremities shall be provided, used, and maintained in a sanitary and reliable condition wherever it is necessary by reason of hazards or processes encountered in a manner capable of causing injury or impairment in the function of any part of the body.

3. Defective or damaged personal protective equipment shall not be used.

FAR 52.237-1 SITE VISIT (Apr 1984)

Quoters are urged and expected to inspect the site where services are to be performed and to satisfy themselves regarding all general and local conditions that may affect the cost of contract performance, to the extent that the information is reasonably obtainable. In no event shall failure to inspect the site constitute grounds for a claim after contract award. **

**See 1.3 in Attachment #1 for more information to schedule a site visit.

TERMINATION FOR DEFAULT, DAMAGES FOR DELAY

Employment of undocumented workers is conducive to creating situations that cause undue and unwarranted disruptions to contract work. To avoid these situations, it is hereby mutually agreed in the event the Contracting Officer receives written notice from the U. S. Immigration and Naturalization Service of two (2) separate instances where undocumented workers were employed on work under this Contract; action will be taken to place the Contractor in default.

FAR 52.204-7 CENTRAL CONTRACTOR REGISTRATION (APR 2008)

(a) Definitions. As used in this clause—

“Central Contractor Registration (CCR) database” means the primary Government repository for Contractor information required for the conduct of business with the Government.

“Data Universal Numbering System (DUNS) number” means the 9-digit number assigned by Dun and

Bradstreet, Inc. (D&B) to identify unique business entities.

“Data Universal Numbering System +4 (DUNS+4) number” means the DUNS number assigned by D&B plus a 4-character suffix that may be assigned by a business concern. (D&B has no affiliation with this 4-character suffix.) This 4-character suffix may be assigned at the discretion of the business concern to establish additional CCR records for identifying alternative Electronic Funds Transfer (EFT) accounts (see the FAR at

Subpart 32.11) for the same concern.

“Registered in the CCR database” means that—

(1) The Contractor has entered all mandatory information, including the DUNS number or the DUNS+4 number, into the CCR database; and

(2) The Government has validated all mandatory data fields, to include validation of the Taxpayer

Identification Number (TIN) with the Internal Revenue Service (IRS), and has marked the record “Active”. The

Contractor will be required to provide consent for TIN validation to the Government as a part of the CCR registration process.

(b)(1) By submission of an offer, the offeror acknowledges the requirement that a prospective awardee shall be registered in the CCR database prior to award, during performance, and through final payment of any contract, basic agreement, basic ordering agreement, or blanket purchasing agreement resulting from this solicitation.

(2) The offeror shall enter, in the block with its name and address on the cover page of its offer, the annotation “DUNS” or “DUNS +4” followed by the DUNS or DUNS +4 number that identifies the offeror’s name and address exactly as stated in the offer. The DUNS number will be used by the Contracting Officer to verify that the offeror is registered in the CCR database.

(c) If the offeror does not have a DUNS number, it should contact Dun and Bradstreet directly to obtain one.

(1) An offeror may obtain a DUNS number—

(i) Via the Internet at http://fedgov.dnb.com/webform or if the offeror does not have internet access, it may call Dun and Bradstreet at 1-866-705-5711 if located within the United States; or

(ii) If located outside the United States, by contacting the local Dun and Bradstreet office. The offeror should indicate that it is an offeror for a U.S. Government contract when contacting the local Dun and

Bradstreet office.

(2) The offeror should be prepared to provide the following information:

(i) Company legal business.

(ii) Tradestyle, doing business, or other name by which your entity is commonly recognized.

(iii) Company Physical Street Address, City, State, and ZIP Code.

(iv) Company Mailing Address, City, State and ZIP Code (if separate from physical).

(v) Company Telephone Number.

(vi) Date the company was started.

(vii) Number of employees at your location.

(viii) Chief executive officer/key manager.

(ix) Line of business (industry).

(x) Company Headquarters name and address (reporting relationship within your entity).

(d) If the Offeror does not become registered in the CCR database in the time prescribed by the Contracting

Officer, the Contracting Officer will proceed to award to the next otherwise successful registered Offeror.

(e) Processing time, which normally takes 48 hours, should be taken into consideration when registering.

Offerors who are not registered should consider applying for registration immediately upon receipt of this solicitation.

(f) The Contractor is responsible for the accuracy and completeness of the data within the CCR database, and for any liability resulting from the Government’s reliance on inaccurate or incomplete data. To remain registered in the CCR database after the initial registration, the Contractor is required to review and update on an annual basis from the date of initial registration or subsequent updates its information in the CCR database to ensure it is current, accurate and complete. Updating information in the CCR does not alter the terms and conditions of this contract and is not a substitute for a properly executed contractual document.

(g)

(1)

(i) If a Contractor has legally changed its business name, “doing business as” name, or division name

(whichever is shown on the contract), or has transferred the assets used in performing the contract, but has not completed the necessary requirements regarding novation and change-of-name agreements in Subpart 42.12, the

Contractor shall provide the responsible Contracting Officer a minimum of one business day’s written notification of its intention to (A) change the name in the CCR database; (B) comply with the requirements of

Subpart 42.12 of the FAR; and (C) agree in writing to the timeline and procedures specified by the responsible

Contracting Officer. The Contractor must provide with the notification sufficient documentation to support the legally changed name.

(ii) If the Contractor fails to comply with the requirements of paragraph (g)(1)(i) of this clause, or fails to perform the agreement at paragraph (g)(1)(i)(C) of this clause, and, in the absence of a properly executed novation or change-of-name agreement, the CCR information that shows the Contractor to be other than the

Contractor indicated in the contract will be considered to be incorrect information within the meaning of the

“Suspension of Payment” paragraph of the electronic funds transfer (EFT) clause of this contract.

(2) The Contractor shall not change the name or address for EFT payments or manual payments, as appropriate, in the CCR record to reflect an assignee for the purpose of assignment of claims (see

FAR Subpart 32.8, Assignment of Claims). Assignees shall be separately registered in the CCR database.

Information provided to the Contractor’s CCR record that indicates payments, including those made by EFT, to an ultimate recipient other than that Contractor will be considered to be incorrect information within the meaning of the “Suspension of payment” paragraph of the EFT clause of this contract.

(h) Offerors and Contractors may obtain information on registration and annual confirmation requirements via the internet at http://www.ccr.gov or by calling 1-888-227-2423, or 269-961-5757.

FAR 52.232-19 AVAILABILITY OF FUNDS FOR THE NEXT FISCAL YEAR (Apr 1984)

Funds are not presently available for performance under this contract beyond December 30, 2009. The Government’s obligation for performance of this contract beyond that date is contingent upon the availability of appropriated funds from which payment for contract purposes can be made. No legal liability on the part of the

Government for any payment may arise for performance under this contract beyond December 31, 2009, until funds are made available to the Contracting Officer for performance and until the Contractor receives notice of availability, to be confirmed in writing by the Contracting Officer.

FAR 52.223-2 AFFIRMATIVE PROCUREMENT OF BIOBASED PRODUCTS UNDER SERVICE
