Requirements for Federal Awards, 2 C.F.R. § 200. Participating Entities may have additional

regulations at 41 C.F.R. § 60, “Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs, Equal 
Employment Opportunity, Department of Labor.” The equal opportunity clause is incorporated 
herein by reference. 
 
B. DAVIS-BACON ACT, AS AMENDED (40 U.S.C. § 3141-3148). When required by federal 
program legislation, all prime construction contracts in excess of $2,000 awarded by non-
federal entities must include a provision for compliance with the Davis-Bacon Act (40 U.S.C. § 
3141-3144, and 3146-3148) as supplemented by Department of Labor regulations (29 C.F.R. § 5, 
“Labor Standards Provisions Applicable to Contracts Covering Federally Financed and Assisted 
Construction”). In accordance with the statute, contractors must be required to pay wages to 
laborers and mechanics at a rate not less than the prevailing wages specified in a wage 
determination made by the Secretary of Labor. In addition, contractors must be required to pay 
wages not less than once a week. The non-federal entity must place a copy of the current 
prevailing wage determination issued by the Department of Labor in each solicitation. The 
decision to award a contract or subcontract must be conditioned upon the acceptance of the 
wage determination. The non-federal entity must report all suspected or reported violations to

the Copeland “Anti-Kickback” Act (40 U.S.C. § 3145), as supplemented by Department of Labor 
regulations (29 C.F.R. § 3, “Contractors and Subcontractors on Public Building or Public Work 
Financed in Whole or in Part by Loans or Grants from the United States”). The Act provides that 
each contractor or subrecipient must be prohibited from inducing, by any means, any person 
employed in the construction, completion, or repair of public work, to give up any part of the 
compensation to which he or she is otherwise entitled. The non-federal entity must report 
all suspected or reported violations to the federal awarding agency. Supplier must be in 
compliance with all applicable Davis-Bacon Act provisions.

C. CONTRACT WORK HOURS AND SAFETY STANDARDS ACT (40 U.S.C. § 3701-3708). Where

U.S.C. §§ 3702 and 3704, as supplemented by Department of Labor regulations (29 C.F.R. § 5). 
Under 40 U.S.C. § 3702 of the Act, each contractor must be required to compute the wages of

of the standard work week is permissible provided that the worker is compensated at a rate of 
not less than one and a half times the basic rate of pay for all hours worked in excess of 40 
hours in the work week. The requirements of 40 U.S.C. § 3704 are applicable to construction 
work and provide that no laborer or mechanic must be required to work in surroundings or 
under working conditions which are unsanitary, hazardous or dangerous. These requirements 
do not apply to the purchases of supplies or materials or articles ordinarily available on the 
open market, or contracts for transportation or transmission of intelligence. This provision is 
hereby incorporated by reference into this Contract. Supplier certifies that during the term of 
an award for all contracts by Sourcewell resulting from this procurement process, Supplier must 
comply with applicable requirements as referenced above.

subrecipient wishes to enter into a contract with a small business firm or nonprofit organization 
regarding the substitution of parties, assignment or performance of experimental, 
developmental, or research work under that “funding agreement,” the recipient or subrecipient 
must comply with the requirements of 37 C.F.R. § 401, “Rights to Inventions Made by Nonprofit 
Organizations and Small Business Firms Under Government Grants, Contracts and Cooperative 
Agreements,” and any implementing regulations issued by the awarding agency. Supplier 
certifies that during the term of an award for all contracts by Sourcewell resulting from this 
procurement process, Supplier must comply with applicable requirements as referenced above. 
 
E. CLEAN AIR ACT (42 U.S.C. § 7401-7671Q.) AND THE FEDERAL WATER POLLUTION CONTROL 
ACT (33 U.S.C. § 1251-1387). Contracts and subgrants of amounts in excess of $150,000 require 
the non-federal award to agree to comply with all applicable standards, orders or regulations 
issued pursuant to the Clean Air Act (42 U.S.C. § 7401- 7671q) and the Federal Water Pollution 
Control Act as amended (33 U.S.C. § 1251- 1387). Violations must be reported to the Federal 
awarding agency and the Regional Office of the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

G. BYRD ANTI-LOBBYING AMENDMENT, AS AMENDED (31 U.S.C. § 1352). Suppliers must file 
any required certifications. Suppliers must not have used federal appropriated funds to pay any 
person or organization for influencing or attempting to influence an officer or employee of any
