D. ANTI-MAFIA LAW REQUIREMENTS

1. Pre-Award Effect of Anti-Mafia Procedures: Inasmuch as the work of this solicitation is to be performed on land owned by the Italian State, the prospective contractor will be subject to all Italian legislation concerning anti-mafia documentation, including, without limitation: Legislative Decree no. 159 of September 6, 2011, Decree of the President of the Republic no. 252 of June 3, 1998, Legislative Decree no. 490 of August 8, 1994, Law Decree No.

629 of September 6, 1982, and any subsequent anti-mafia laws, integrations and amendments. Only firms that submit the requested documentation will be considered for award. In the event that prior to award any mafia infiltration attempt is determined by the competent Prefect (Prefetto) against an offeror, pursuant to Art. 4 of Legislative Decree no. 490/1994, Art. 10 of Decree of the President of the Republic no. 252/1998, or any other anti-mafia law, no award will be made to said offeror. Furthermore, in the event that prior to award any additional information against an offeror is obtained and validated by the government or provided by the competent Prefect (Prefetto) pursuant to Art. 1, Section 7 of Law decree 629/1982, Art. 10, paragraph 9, of Decree of the President of the Republic no. 252/1998, or any other anti-mafia law, the Government may decide, at its sole discretion, that no award will be made to said offeror.

2. Subcontractors: ALSO, the Offeror is responsible for complying with Italian Anti-Mafia laws with respect to its subcontractors; and, if necessary, requesting additional information regarding attempts of mafia infiltration from a competent Prefect (Prefetto). The Offeror agrees to provide the Government any appropriate documentation that may indicate mafia-collusion, to include, if available, results of any Prefect (Prefetto) investigations.

no. 490/1994, Art. 10 of Decree of the President of the Republic no. 252/1998, or any other anti-mafia law, the Government at its sole discretion may consider this a failure to execute the work and may terminate the contractor's right to proceed with the work under the "Default" clause of this contract.

The offeror SHALL include a “self-declaration” in accordance with DPR 445/2000, stating that “pursuant to any applicable anti-mafia law in force, none of the causes of forfeiture, suspension or prohibition set forth by Art. 67 of the Code exist with regard to all the persons involved in the subject contract.”

E. PERFORMANCE SPECIFICATIONS. For the accomplishment of this contract, the Government has provided the Contractor with “PERFORMANCE SPECIFICATIONS”. Performance specifications state requirements in terms of the required results with criteria for verifying compliance, but without stating the methods for achieving the required results. In view of the above, the Government shall not be liable for Contractor’s increased costs in achieving the performance requirements unless such a specification embodies requirements objectively impossible to attain. The fact that the Government may specify a minimum requirement for some detail of performance does not transform the “PERFORMANCE SPECIFICATIONS” into a “DESIGN SPECIFICATIONS”.

F. REQUIREMENT FOR REGISTRATION OF DESIGNERS. The design of architectural, structural, mechanical, electrical, civil, or other engineering features of the work shall be accomplished or reviewed and approved by architects or engineers registered to practice in the particular professional field involved in Italy.

Existing utility lines and features revealed during the course of construction shall also be accurately located and dimensioned. Variations in the interior utility systems shall be clearly defined and dimensioned; and coordinated with exterior utility connections at the building five-foot line, where applicable.

2. Existing topographic features which differ from those shown on the contract drawings shall also be accurately located and recorded. Where a choice of materials or methods is permitted herein, or where variations in scope or character of methods is permitted herein, or where variations in scope or character of work from that of the original contract are authorized, the drawings shall be marked to define the construction actually provided. The representations of such changes shall conform to standard drafting practice and shall include such supplementary notes, legends, and details as necessary to clearly portray the as-built construction. These drawings shall be available for review by the Contracting Officer at all times.

3. Upon completion of the work, both sets of the marked up prints shall be certified as correct, signed by the Contractor, and delivered to the Contracting Officer for his approval before acceptance. Requests for partial payments will not be approved if the marked prints are not kept current, and request for final payment will not be approved until the marked prints are delivered to the Contracting Officer.

4. SHOP DRAWINGS. In reference to FAR clause 52.236-21 -- SPECIFICATIONS AND DRAWINGS FOR CONSTRUCTION (FEB 1997) ALTERNATE I (APR 1984) shop drawings are required.

H. CONTRACTING OFFICER AUTHORITY. In no event shall any understanding or agreement between the Contractor and any Government employee, other than the Contracting Officer on any contract, modification, change order, letter of verbal direction to the Contractor be effective or binding upon the Government. All such actions must be formalized by a proper contractual document executed by an appointed Contracting Officer. The Contractor is hereby put on notice that in the event a Government employee, other than the Contracting Officer, directs a change in the work to be performed, or increases the scope of work to be performed, it is the Contractor's responsibility to make inquiry of the Contracting Officer before making the deviation.
