Version 03.2026

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

PROHIBITION OF COVERED UNMANNED AIRCRAFT SYSTEMS (UAS)

The Bidder or Offeror certifies that they are aware of and comply with relevant Federal statutes and regulations, including

those from the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), for operating unmanned aircraft systems (UAS) in accordance, and in

compliance with all related requirements in the FAA Reauthorization Act of 2024 (Public Law 118-63), section 936 (49 U.S.C.

§ 44801 note).

Contractor warrants that all UAS operations will be conducted in full compliance with all applicable Federal Aviation

Administration (FAA) regulations, including but not limited to 14 CFR Part 107, and any other applicable local, state, or Federal

laws and regulations.
