Federal Requirements

Federal Grant Requirements

The following requirements are based on this contract being funded, at least in part, by the federal government through the U.S. EPA. The requirements are based on the Cooperative Agreement between the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment (CDPHE) and the

Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and regulatory requirements contained in 40 CFR 35

Subpart O.

CDPHE requires, and the CONTRACTOR agrees to comply with the following:

1. Insurance: The CONTRACTOR agrees that in all instances where this agreement requires the CONTRACTOR to include the State as either a named or additional insured party, the

CONTRACTOR will also include the EPA as either a named or additional insured party.

2. CONTRACTOR Conflict of Interest: Prior to executing an agreement, CONTRACTOR shall provide: (1) information on its status and the status of parent companies, subsidiaries, affiliates, subcontractors and current clients as PRPs at the site; (2) certification that to the best of its knowledge and belief it has disclosed such information or no such information exists;

and (3) a statement that it immediately shall disclose any such information discovered after submission of its bid or proposal or after award. CDPHE shall evaluate such information and shall exclude any bidder or offeror if CDPHE determines the offeror’s conflict of interest is significant and cannot be avoided or otherwise resolved.

3. The CONTRACTOR agrees to ensure that all space for conferences, meetings, conventions, or training funded in whole or in part under this agreement complies with the Hotel and Motel

CDPHE that information as necessary to demonstrate that the work will comply with the substantive portions of such environmental laws and regulations for review and approval by the CDPHE in lieu of performing the administrative or procedural aspects of applying for permits prior to initiating work that would otherwise be subject to an environmental permit.

6. The CONTRACTOR agrees to comply with requirements contained in 40 CFR 35, Subpart O, that are applicable to a party contracting with a grant recipient (CDPHE is the grant recipient).

A summary of those requirements follows. Failure of this summary to specifically identify any such federal requirements does not relieve the CONTRACTOR of his responsibility to comply with applicable parts of the federal regulation:

A. Royalties and Patents.

The CONTRACTOR must report to CDPHE, promptly and in reasonable written detail, each known notice or claim of patent or copyright infringement under this Contract. In the event of any claim or suit against the State or CDPHE on account of any alleged patent or copyright infringement arising out of the performance of this Contract or out of the use of any supplies furnished or Work or services performed hereunder, the CONTRACTOR must furnish to CDPHE upon request, all evidence and information in the

CONTRACTOR’s possession or control pertaining to such suit or claim. Such evidence and information shall be furnished at the expense of the CONTRACTOR.

Part 30, including Appendix B of said Part 30. In such case, the CONTRACTOR shall report the discovery or invention to EPA directly or through the CDPHE and shall otherwise comply with the CDPHE’s responsibilities in accordance with Subpart D of 40

CFR Part 30. The CONTRACTOR hereby agrees that disposition of rights to inventions made under this contact shall be in accordance with the terms and conditions of the aforementioned Appendix B. The CONTRACTOR shall include provisions appropriate to effectuate the purposes of this condition in all subcontracts involving research, development, experimental or demonstration work.

The CONTRACTOR agrees that any plans, drawings, specification, computer programs, technical reports, operating manuals or other “Subject Data” (as defined in Appendix C to

40 CFR Part 30) are subject to the rights in the United States, as set forth in said Appendix

C, including the right to use, duplicate and disclose such manuals, etc., in whole or in part, in any manner for any purpose whatsoever, and to have others do so. For purposes of this paragraph, “grantee” as used in said Appendix C shall refer to the CONTRACTOR. If the material is copyrightable, the CONTRACTOR may copyright such, as permitted by said

Appendix C, but the CDPHE and the federal government reserve a royalty-free, non-exclusive and irrevocable license to reproduce, publish and use such materials in whole or in part, and to authorize others to do so. The CONTRACTOR shall include provisions appropriate to effectuate the purpose of this condition in all subcontracts expected to produce copyrightable “Subject Data.”

B. Access.

The CDPHE and the EPA, or representatives of these parties, shall at all reasonable times have or be provided access to the work and facility.

C. Funding.

The agreement is funded, in part or in whole, by federal funds pursuant to a funding agreement between the CDPHE and a federal agency. As such the agreement is contingent upon continuing availability of federal funds for payment pursuant to the terms of the funding agreement with the federal agency.
