12. TRADE RESTRICTION CERTIFICATION
By submission of an offer, the Offeror certifies that with respect to this solicitation and any resultant contract, the Offeror-

against U.S. firms as published by the Office of the United States Trade Representative (USTR);
2) has not knowingly entered into any contract or subcontract for this project with a person that is a citizen or national of a
foreign country included on the list of countries that discriminate against U.S. firms as published by the USTR; and
3) has not entered into any subcontract for any product to be used on the Federal project that is produced in a foreign country
included on the list of countries that discriminate against U.S. firms published by the USTR.
This certification concerns a matter within the jurisdiction of an agency of the United States of America and the making of a false,
fictitious, or fraudulent certification may render the maker subject to prosecution under "Title 18 USC § 1001.
The Offeror/Contractor must provide immediate written notice to the Owner if the Offeror/Contractor learns that its certification or
that of a subcontractor was erroneous when submitted or has become erroneous by reason of changed circumstances. The
Contractor must require subcontractors provide immediate written notice to the Contractor if at any time it learns that its
certification was erroneous by reason of changed circumstances.
Unless the restrictions of this clause are waived by the Secretary of Transportation in accordance with 49 CFR § 30.17, no contract
shall be awarded to an Offeror or subcontractor:
1) who is owned or controlled by one or more citizens or nationals of a foreign country included on the list of countries that
discriminate against U.S. firms published by the USTR; or
2) whose subcontractors are owned or controlled by one or more citizens or nationals of a foreign country on such USTR list; or
3) who incorporates in the public works project any product of a foreign country on such USTR list.
Nothing contained in the foregoing shall be construed to require establishment of a system of records in order to render, in good
faith, the certification required by this provision. The knowledge and information of a contractor is not required to exceed that
which is normally possessed by a prudent person in the ordinary course of business dealings.
The Offeror agrees that, if awarded a contract resulting from this solicitation, it will incorporate this provision for certification
without modification in all lower tier subcontracts. The Contractor may rely on the certification of a prospective subcontractor that
it is not a firm from a foreign country included on the list of countries that discriminate against U.S. firms as published by USTR,
unless the Offeror has knowledge that the certification is erroneous.
This certification is a material representation of fact upon which reliance was placed when making an award. If it is later
determined that the Contractor or subcontractor knowingly rendered an erroneous certification, the Federal Aviation
Administration (FAA) may direct through the Owner cancellation of the contract or subcontract for default at no cost to the Owner
or the FAA.
13. CERTIFICATION OF OFFEROR/BIDDER REGARDING DEBARMENT
By submitting a bid/proposal under this solicitation, the bidder or offeror certifies that neither it nor its principals are
presently debarred or suspended by any Federal department or agency from participation in this transaction.
CERTIFICATION OF LOWER TIER CONTRACTORS REGARDING DEBARMENT
The successful bidder, by administering each lower tier subcontract that exceeds $25,000 as a "covered transaction", must
confirm each lower tiei participant of a "covered transaction" under the project is not presently debarred or otherwise
disqualified from participation in this federally -assisted project. The successful bidder will accomplish this by:
1. Checking the System for Award Management at website: http://www.sam.gov.
2. Collecting a certification statement similar to the Certification of Offeror /Bidder Regarding Debarment, above.
3. Inserting a clause or condition in the covered transaction with the lower tier contract.
If the Federal Aviation Administration later determines that a lower tier participant failed to disclose to a higher tier
participant that it was excluded or disqualified at the time it entered the covered transaction, the FAA may pursue any
available remedies, including suspension and debarment of the non -compliant participant.

of non-ferrous metals; plastic and polymer -based products (including polyvinylchloride, composite
building materials, and polymers used in fiber optic cables); glass (including optic glass); lumber or
