(2) Take appropriate action, up to and including termination, against employees, agents, or subcontractors that violate the policy in paragraph (b) of this clause.

(d) Notification.

(i) Any credible information it receives from any source (including host country law enforcement) that alleges a Contractor employee, subcontractor, subcontractor employee, or their agent has engaged in conduct that violates the policy in paragraph (b) of this clause (see also 18 U.S.C. 1351, Fraud in Foreign Labor Contracting, and 52.203- 13(b)(3)(i)(A), if that clause is included in the solicitation or contract, which requires disclosure to the agency Office of the Inspector General when the Contractor has credible evidence of fraud); and

(2) Aggravating factors. The Contractor failed to abate an alleged violation or enforce the requirements of a compliance plan, when directed by the Contracting Officer to do so.

(iv) Protect all employees suspected of being victims of or witnesses to prohibited activities, prior to returning to the country from which the employee was recruited, and shall not prevent or hinder the ability of these employees from cooperating fully with Government authorities.

(ii) Require any officer, director, owner, employee, or agent of the Contractor, including a sole proprietor, to waive his or her attorney client privilege or Fifth Amendment rights; or

(2) The Contractor shall maintain a compliance plan during the performance of the contract that is appropriate--

(i) To the size and complexity of the contract; and

(3) Minimum requirements. The compliance plan must include, at a minimum, the following:

(i) An awareness program to inform contractor employees about the Government's policy prohibiting trafficking-related activities described in paragraph (b) of this clause, the activities prohibited, and the actions that will be taken against the employee for violations. Additional information about Trafficking in Persons and examples of awareness programs can be found at the Web site for the Department of State's Office to Monitor and Combat Trafficking in Persons at http://www.state.gov/j/tip/.

(iii) A recruitment and wage plan that only permits the use of recruitment companies with trained employees, prohibits charging recruitment fees to the employee or potential employee, and ensures that wages meet applicable host-country legal requirements or explains any variance.

(iv) A housing plan, if the Contractor or subcontractor intends to provide or arrange housing, that ensures that the housing meets host-country housing and safety standards.

(v) Procedures to prevent agents and subcontractors at any tier and at any dollar value from engaging in trafficking in persons (including activities in paragraph (b) of this clause) and to monitor, detect, and terminate any agents, subcontracts, or subcontractor employees that have engaged in such activities.

(i) The Contractor shall post the relevant contents of the compliance plan, no later than the initiation of contract performance, at the workplace (unless the work is to be performed in the field or not in a fixed location) and on the Contractor's Web site (if one is maintained).

(5) Certification. Annually after receiving an award, the Contractor shall submit a certification to the Contracting Officer that--

(B) If abuses relating to any of the prohibited activities identified in paragraph (b) of this clause have been found, the Contractor or subcontractor has taken the appropriate remedial and referral actions.

(i) Subcontracts. (1) The Contractor shall include the substance of this clause, including this paragraph (i), in all subcontracts and in all contracts with agents. The requirements in paragraph (h) of this clause apply only to any portion of the subcontract that--

The contractor shall also indicate the amount and type of Value-Added Taxes excluded from the contract price. If supplies and/or services which the contractor purchases for this contract include Value-Added Taxes, it can obtain a full refund for the amount of the Value-Added Tax by submitting to the ROK District Tax Office tax invoices which the contractor receives when it purchases materials and/or services for this contract.

(a) This clause is in implementation of Article XVI of the Status of Forces Agreement between the Republic of Korea and the United States of America, granting Contractors exemption from Republic of Korea taxes for petroleum products (POL) utilized on USFK acquisitions in the Republic of Korea. At the time this contract is awarded, the Contractor shall make a final nomination in writing of its point of purchase for POL products to be used on this contract. If the Contractor intends to purchase directly from an oil company refinery, it may nominate any of the three ROK oil companies below which have agreed to sell to Contractor FOB refinery at a fixed exempt price.

(3) LG Caltex Company: Yosu District Tax Office ATTN: POL Tax Administrator Yosu City, Chonla Nam Do, Korea

(b) If the contractor instead intends to purchase its POL products from an individual gasoline station, the Contracting Officer will advise the contractor as to which individual gasoline stations will sell to it at the fixed exempt price. The contractor shall specify from which of those stations it will purchase. In addition to specifying the oil company/gas station, the Contractor shall state the estimated quantity and the amount of POL to be purchased from each refinery/gas station. The USFK Contracting Officer will verify the reasonableness of the amounts of POL products claimed for use on the contract and, based on this verification, the USFK Responsible Officer will issue USFK POL Tax Exemption Coupons. If the Contractor wishes to purchase from an individual gas station, it will be required to make advance payment for the amount of POL covered by the coupons. Advance payment will be at the fixed-exempt price and will be made to the gas station(s) previously nominated. Representatives from the nominated gas station(s) shall be present at the issuing session. They will collect the advance payments; marks “paid” on the back of the original copy of the coupons issued, and provide the purchasing Contractor with tax invoices to be used by the Contractor to obtain a refund from its governing ROK District Tax Office. All coupons for construction contracts will be issued at the time of award. Coupons for requirements-type contracts will be issued on a delivery order increment basis or on a monthly basis. Pre-selected oil company refineries will sell their POL products at the fixed exempted prices upon presentation of the coupons. Individual gas stations, which have previously collected POL payment in advance will accept the pre-paid USFK POL Tax Exemption Coupons from contractors and will provide the POL amounts reflected on tendered coupons without any further charge.

DISPUTES, MINISTRY OF NATIONAL DEFENSE FUNDED CONTRACTS, ROK

(This clause applies only to ROK-funded acquisitions or parts of acquisitions.)

(a) All disputes arising under, or relating to, this contract shall be resolved under this clause.

(b) "Claim", as used in this clause, means a written demand or written assertion by one of the contracting parties seeking, as a matter of right, the payment of money in a sum certain, the adjustment or interpretation of contract terms, or other relief arising under or relating to this contract. A claim arising under a contract, unlike a claim relating to that contract, is a claim than can be resolved under a contract clause that provides for the relief sought by the claimant; however, a written demand or written assertion by the Contractor seeking the payment of money exceeding $100,000 is not a claim under the clause until certified as required by subparagraph (d)(2) below. A voucher, invoice, or other routine request for payment that is not in dispute when submitted is not a claim under the clause. The submission may be converted to a claim under the clause, by complying with the submission and certification requirements of this clause, if it is disputed either as to liability or amount or is not acted upon in a reasonable time.

(c) The contractor shall have the right to submit to the Contracting Officer, disputes, demands, and/or claims, relating to or arising under this contract, only on the issue of whether the Government should and will certify performance, for payment by the ROK Government. The contractor shall not submit to the U.S. Government, nor will the Contracting Officer accept, any disputes, demands, or claims for compensation for work, which the U.S.

Government has certified as completed.

(d) Procedures

(1) A claim by the contractor shall be made in writing and submitted to the Contracting Officer for a written decision. A claim by the Government against the Contractor shall be subject to a decision by the Contracting Officer.

(2) For contractor’s claims exceeding $100,000, the contractor shall submit with the claim a certification that –

(i) The claim is made in good faith;

(ii) Supporting data are accurate and complete to the best of the contractor's knowledge and belief; and

(iii) The amount requested accurately reflects the contract adjustment for which the contractor believes the Government is liable.

(3) Individuals

(i) If the contractor is an individual, the certification shall be executed by that individual.

(ii) If the contractor is not an individual, the certification shall be executed by –

(A) A senior company official in charge at the contractor's plant or location involved; or

(B) An officer or general partner of the contractor having overall responsibility for the conduct of the contractor's affairs.

(e) For contractor’s claims of $100,000 or less, the Contracting Officer will, if requested in writing by the contractor, render a decision within 60 days of the request. For contractor-certified claims over $100,000, the Contracting Officer will, within 60 days, decide the claim or notify the contractor of the date by which the decision will be made.

(f) The Contracting Officer's decision shall be final unless the contractor appeals the decision within 30 days of the Contracting Officer's decision, to the Principal Assistant Responsible for Contracting (PARC). In the event that the contractor does appeal the decision of the Contracting Officer, the appeal shall be heard by and decided by the PARC and/or a panel of U.S. officials, chaired by the PARC. The decision of this panel shall be final.

(g) The contractor shall proceed diligently with performance of this contract, pending final resolution of any request for relief, claim, or action arising under the contract, and comply with any decision of the Contracting Officer.

(h) Regarding "MOA Contract Funded by ROK MND" portion or period of this contract, any reference to the Disputes clause, FAR 52.233-1, shall be construed to mean this local clause 5152.233-4008.

5152.233-4703 AMC-LEVEL PROTEST PROGRAM

NOTE: This clause does not apply to contracts awarded under the Logistics Cost Sharing (LCS) program.

If you have complaints about this procurement, it is preferable that you first attempt to resolve those concerns with the responsible contracting officer. However, you can also protest to Headquarters, AMC. The HQ, AMC-Level Protest Program is intended to encourage interested parties to seek resolution of their concerns within AMC as an Alternative Dispute Resolution forum, rather than filing a protest with the General Accounting Office or other external forum. Contract award or performance is suspended during the protest to the same extent, and within the same time periods, as if filed at the GAO. The AMC protest decision goal is to resolve protests within 20 working days from filing. To be timely, protests must be filed within the periods specified in FAR 33.103. If you want to file a protest under the AMC-Level Protest Program, the protest must request resolution under that program and be sent to the address below. All other agency-level protests should be sent to the contracting officer for resolution.
