Postaward Small Business Program Rerepresentation (Feb 2026) (Deviation 2026-O0038)

(a) Definitions. As used in this clause-

Long-term contract means a contract of more than five years in duration, including options.

However, the term does not include contracts that exceed five years in duration because the period of performance has been extended for a cumulative period not to exceed six months under the clause at 52.217-8, Option to Extend Services, or other appropriate authority.

Small business concern-

(1) Means a concern, including its affiliates, that is independently owned and operated, not dominant in its field of operation, and qualified as a small business under the criteria in 13 CFR part 121 and the size standard in paragraph (c) of this clause.

(2) Affiliates, as used in this definition, means business concerns, one of whom directly or indirectly controls or has the power to control the others, or a third party or parties control or have the power to control the others. In determining whether affiliation exists, consideration is given to all appropriate factors including common ownership, common management, and contractual relationships. SBA determines affiliation based on the factors set forth at 13 CFR 121.103.

(b) If the Contractor represented that it was a small business concern, a small disadvantaged business concern, or a joint venture that was any of the small business concerns identified in 19.000(a)(3) prior to award of this contract, the Contractor shall rerepresent its size and socioeconomic status according to paragraph (e) of this clause or, if applicable, paragraph (g) of this clause, upon occurrence of any of the following:

(1) Within 30 days after execution of a novation agreement or within 30 days after modification of the contract to include this clause, if the novation agreement was executed prior to inclusion of this clause in the contract.

(2) Within 30 days after a merger or acquisition that does not require a novation or within 30 days after modification of the contract to include this clause, if the merger or acquisition occurred prior to inclusion of this clause in the contract.

(3) For long-term contracts-

(i) Within 60 to 120 days prior to the end of the fifth year of the contract; and

(ii) Within 60 to 120 days prior to the date specified in the contract for exercising any option thereafter.

(c) The Contractor shall rerepresent its size status in accordance with the size standard in effect at the time of this rerepresentation that corresponds to the North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code(s) assigned to this contract. The small business size standard corresponding to this NAICS code(s) can be found at https://www.sba.gov/document /support--table-size-standards.

(d) The small business size standard for a Contractor providing an end item that it does not manufacture, process, or produce itself, for a contract other than a construction or service contract, is 500 employees, or 150 employees for information technology value-added resellers under NAICS code 541519, if the acquisition-

(1) Was set aside for small business and has a value above the simplified acquisition threshold;

(2) Used the HUBZone price evaluation preference regardless of dollar value, unless the Contractor waived the price evaluation preference; or

(3) Was an 8(a), HUBZone, service-disabled veteran-owned, economically disadvantaged women-owned, or women-owned small business set-aside or sole-source award regardless of dollar value.

(e) Except as provided in paragraph (g) of this clause, the Contractor shall make the representation(s) required by paragraph (b) of this clause by validating or updating all its representations in the Representations and Certifications section of the System for Award Management (SAM) and its other data in SAM, as necessary, to ensure that they reflect the Contractor's current status. The Contractor shall notify the contracting officer in writing within the timeframes specified in paragraph (b) of this clause, that the data have been validated or updated, and provide the date of the validation or update.

(f) If the Contractor represented that it was other than a small business concern prior to award of this contract, the Contractor may, but is not required to, take the actions required by paragraphs (e) or (g) of this clause.

(g) If the Contractor does not have representations and certifications in SAM, or does not have a representation in SAM for the NAICS code applicable to this contract, the Contractor is required to complete the following rerepresentation and submit it to the contracting office, along with the contract number and the date on which the rerepresentation was completed:

The entirety of the structure is listed in the Register of Historic Places.

Each item is of historic significance to the Mill Springs Park, and shall be interpreted, operated, and maintained with the utmost care and precision. The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers reserves the right to order a milling stoppage order if Corps employees deem the mill is being operated in an unsafe manner or in a manner which would cause harm to the public or the mill. There is no reimbursement or change in pay whether the mill is physically operated.

4. WORK TO BE PERFORMED: The mill shall be open from 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM, Eastern Time. Days open may include Fridays, Saturdays, Sundays and holidays

(Memorial Day Weekend, July 4th Independence Day Weekend, Juneteenth, National Independence Day Weekend, and Labor Day Weekend). Dates of operation shall be identified in the attached schedule. As referred to above, the Contractor shall also be responsible for initial opening (de-winterizing) and closing (winterizing) of the Mill. As part of the opening of the mill, the miller MAY grind 300 pounds of clean mill for the Monticello Woman’s Club. The operator/interpreter shall be on duty during all open hours. HOWEVER, the Corps will advise the Miller whether for safety purposes, the mill will not grind.

a. Experience. The operator (miller) shall demonstrate to the Government, proficiency in the operation of the mill, including waterwheel and stone revolutions, prior to beginning work. The mill operator shall be proficient in milling operations and associated mechanical equipment. This will be made evident by past work record and personal interview in addition to demonstrated proficiency. The operator/interpreter will be provided training, by Government personnel, on the history of the mill. The Government reserves the right to reject any operator candidate or interpreter who, in the assessment of the Government Representative(s), does not have the ability to safely or effectively operate the mill or who does not project a positive image. The operator/interpreter shall not operate any machinery without supervision until s/he is determined to be acceptable by the Government and notified in writing of this determination. The operator/interpreter must have skill in meeting the public and explaining the mill’s operation and history.

Interpretation is a key skill needed in this performance work statement.

(1) Operator. The operator shall be on duty on weekends and holidays during open hours. The stones and mill may be operated dry, with the stones separated, throughout the day, so that visitors can see the mill and water-wheel in operation. In addition, on each Saturday, Sunday, and holiday, starting Memorial Day Weekend and ending Labor Day Weekend, a corn grinding demonstration may be conducted at 2:00 pm Eastern Time. Prior to starting the demonstration, all visitors shall be warned of the dangers of being near the machinery.

(Visitors shall be permitted to do a self-guided tour of the building without a guide, however, the third floor is not permitted per the State Fire Marshall). Objectives to be met by the interpretive program are (a) to generate an appreciation for the cultural heritage of the mill, and an understanding of why it has been preserved and restored, (b) to offer, assistance in learning of the operation of the mill, (c) to interpret the role this area played in Civil War history and culture; specifically the Battle of Mill Springs (Logan Crossroads), and (d) to support the objectives for the overall interpretive program at Lake Cumberland and tell the story of the Corps.
