PROCUREMENT OF RECOVERED MATERIALS
Contractor and subcontractor agree to comply with Section 6002 of the Solid Waste Disposal Act, as amended by the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act, and the regulatory provisions of 40 CFR Part 247. In the performance of this contract and to the extent practicable, the Contractor and subcontractors are to use products containing the highest percentage of recovered materials for items designated by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) under 40 CFR Part 247 whenever:
1. The contract requires procurement of $10,000 or more of a designated item during the fiscal year; or
2. The contractor has procured $10,000 or more of a designated item using Federal funding during the previous fiscal year.
The list of EPA-designated items is available at www.epa.gov/smm/comprehensive-procurement-guidelines-construction-products.
Section 6002(c) establishes exceptions to the preference for recovery of EPA-designated products if the contractor can demonstrate the item is:
a) Not reasonably available within a timeframe providing for compliance with the contract performance schedule;
b) Fails to meet reasonable contract performance requirements; or
c) Is only available at an unreasonable price.
The Contractor's attention is directed to Attachment 1 of the Bid Proposal, "FHWA 1273, rev. 10.23.23" FHWA 1273 is required with this project and will be physically incorporated into the executed contract (Excluding ATTACHMENT A – EMPLOYMENT AND MATERIALS PREFERENCE FOR APPALACHIAN DEVELOPMENT HIGHWAY SYSTEM OR APPALACHIAN LOCAL ACCESS ROAD CONTRACTS).
Each subcontract and any lower tier subcontract that may in turn be made shall have the "FHWA 1273 - Required Contract Provisions Federal-Aid Contracts" physically incorporated into the subcontract. Noncompliance shall be corrected. Payment for subcontracted work involved will be withheld from progress payments due, or to become due, until correction is made. Failure to comply may result in termination of the contract.

Vehicles with a gross vehicle weight rating greater than 8,500 lbs. and light-duty package delivery vehicles operated in California may be subject to the California Air Resources Board (CARB) Advanced Clean Fleets regulations. Such vehicles may therefore be subject to requirements to reduce emissions of air pollutants. For more information, see CARB Advanced Clean Fleets and Advanced Clean Fleets Regulation & Advisories | California Air Resources Board.
The apparent low bidder shall provide copies of valid Certificates of Reported Compliance as described in California Code of Regulations, title 13, ("13 CCR") section 2449(n) for the bidder’s fleet, and fleets of any listed subcontractors, of vehicles subject to 13 CCR section 2449 which may be use in performance of this project.
If the apparent low bidder’s fleet, or any subcontractor’s fleet, is exempt or is not subject to the regulation bidder shall clearly indicate the applicable exemption in the bidder’s response. For more information, see CARB Advanced Clean Fleets Regulation Exemptions and Extensions Overview | California Air Resources Board.
Certificates of Reported Compliance and/or exemptions must be submitted by the apparent low bidder by 4:00PM on Monday following Bid Opening and must be received by the County prior to contract award.
The Contractor’s attention is directed to the Special Provisions for this project for which section 3 of the Housing and Urban Development Act of 1968 (12 U.S.C. 1701u) (hereinafter “section 3”) requirements apply. CONTRACTOR is advised that the Housing and Urban Development Department (“HUD”) recently issued a comprehensive update to its regulations implementing section 3 requirements (see <link>) effective November 30, 2020.
Previously, HUD required that agreements or any subcontracts covered by section 3 contain the complete clause codified at 24 CFR § 135.8. This clause has been repealed in its entirety, and HUD no longer requires the inclusion of prescriptive contractual language previously contained in the section 3 clause. Instead, HUD has stated such agreements and/or subcontracts should include customized contract language depending on the particular contract or HUD program. While HUD anticipates providing sample language and/or guidance concerning best contracting practices, such language and/or guidance has yet to be released.
Consequently, pursuant to 24 CFR §§ 75.17 and 75.27, the Contractor simply is required to include language in its subcontracts stating that section 3 requirements apply, and to further require that all its subcontractors meet the requirements of 24 CFR § 75.19.
Economic Sanctions: Pursuant to California State Executive Order N-6-22 (Order) imposing economic sanctions against Russia and declaring support of Ukraine, COUNTY shall terminate any contract with any individual or entity that is in violation of the Order or that is subject to economic sanctions therein, and shall not enter a contract with any such individual or entity while the Order is in effect.
If the contract is $5 million or more, Contractor shall provide a written report to County within 60 days of the effective date of the contract or 60 days upon request regarding compliance with economic sanctions and steps taken in response to Russia’s action in Ukraine, including but not limited to, desisting from making new investments in, or engaging in financial transactions with Russia or Russian entities, and directly providing support to Ukraine, while the Order is in effect. The County shall keep the report on file as evidence of compliance with the Order.
