Public health experts agree that face coverings are an additional step to protect against COVID-19 when combined with social distancing and good hygienic practices. Along with social distancing, wearing a mask is one of the key recommended preventive measures in limiting the spread of this virus to others, especially from infected individuals who do not show symptoms.

All personnel entering and exiting the facilities are required to wear a facial covering (cloth or mask). Bandanas, Novelty/non-protective masks, masks with ventilation valves, or face shields are not a substitute for proper masks and are PROHIBITED from use in BEP facilities.

All personnel must wear a face covering while in common spaces:

• Hallways

• Elevators

• Restrooms

BEP will enforce proper mask usage with contractors inside the Bureau. Masks shall be worn properly.

3.0 COVID-19 RECOMMENDED SAFETY GUIDANCE AND PROTOCOLS.

The BEP is following all currently recommended safety guidance and protocols. This guidance includes actions individuals must take:

• DO NOT come to work if sick or feel unwell in any way.

• Maintain social distancing of 6 feet or more whenever possible.

• Wear masks and face coverings onsite! It is mandatory when social distancing cannot be maintained.

• Limit movement within the plant to only what is necessary to delivery or pick-u items.

• Follow healthcare provider’s and CDC’s guidance regarding recovery.

4.0 INTERPRETATION OF CONTRACT REQUIREMENTS.

No interpretation of any provision of this BPA, including applicable specification(s)/ work statement, shall be binding on the Government unless furnished or agreed to in writing by the Contracting Officer.

5.0 NOTICE TO THE GOVERNMENT OF DELAYS.

In the event the Contractor encounters difficulty in meeting performance requirements, or when it anticipates difficulty in complying with the agreement pick up schedule or date, or whenever the Contractor has knowledge that any actual or potential situation is delaying or threatens to delay the timely performance of this agreement, the Contractor shall immediately notify the CO and the COR, in writing, giving pertinent details, provided, however, that this data shall be informational only in character and that this provision shall not be construed as a waiver by BEP of any pick up schedule or date or of any rights or remedies provided by law or under this BPA.

6.0 DISCLOSURE OF CONFLICTS OF INTEREST.

It is the BEP policy to make awards to only those offerors whose objectivity is not impaired because of any related past, present, or planned interest, financial or otherwise, in organizations regulated by BEP or in organizations whose interests may be substantially affected by Departmental activities. Based on this policy, if at any time during the performance of this agreement the Contractor knows of any Conflict of Interest situation affecting the organization, any of its officers or Key Persons working under this agreement, has reason to believe that a conflict of interest situation might arise, or is made aware of an actual or potential conflict of interest situation:

• The Contractor shall immediately provide to the Contracting Officer a written statement which describes in a concise manner all past, present or planned organizational, financial, contractual or other interest(s) with that organization regulated by BEP, or with that organization or individual whose interests may be substantially affected by Departmental activities, and which is related to the work under this agreement. The interest(s) described shall include those of the Contractor, its affiliates, consultants, Subcontractors and key personnel of any of the above. Past interest shall be limited to within one year of the date of the offeror's technical offer.

Key personnel shall include any person owning more than 20% interest in the organization, and the organization's corporate officers, its senior managers and any employee who is responsible for making a decision or taking an action on this

24 Bureau of Engraving and Printing 2031ZA21Q00141 agreement where the decision or action can have an economic or other impact on the interests of a regulated or affected organization.

• The Contractor shall describe in detail when it became aware of the actual or potential conflict of interest, what action the organization has taken or proposes to take to mitigate and/or rectify the situation, and why it believes, in light of the interest(s) identified above, that performance of the agreement can still be accomplished in an impartial and objective manner.

• In the absence of any relevant interest identified above, the Contractor shall certify in its statement that to its best knowledge and belief no affiliation exists relevant to possible conflicts of interest. The Contractor must obtain the same information from any potential Subcontractors prior to award of a subcontract.

• The Contracting Officer will review the statement submitted and may require additional relevant information from the Contractor. All such information, and any other relevant information known to BEP, will be used to determine whether a conflict of interest exists or a situation exists that may create a conflict of interest. If any such conflict of interest is found to exist, the Contracting Officer may (1) terminate the agreement, or (2) determine that it is otherwise in the best interest of the United States to continue the agreement with the Contractor and (3) modify the agreement to include appropriate provisions to mitigate or avoid such conflicts in the agreement.

• If the Contractor refuses to provide the written statement called for in this section, or any additional information that the Contracting Officer may require, the Contracting Officer may terminate for convenience of the government if he or she deems that termination is in the best interest of the Government.
