policies and procedures of
FAR [Part 25](http://acquisition.gov/far/current/html/FARTOCP25.html#wp225048).
For line items covered by the WTO GPA, the Government will evaluate

the restrictions of the Buy American Act. The Government will consider
for award only offers of U.S.-made or designated country end products
unless the Contracting Officer determines that there are no offers for

fulfill the requirements of the solicitation.

\(h\) Certification Regarding Responsibility Matters (Executive
Order 12689). (Applies only if the contract value is expected to exceed
the simplified acquisition threshold.) The offeror certifies, to the
best of its knowledge and belief, that the offeror and/or any of its
principals---

\(1\) o Are, o are not presently debarred, suspended, proposed for
debarment, or declared ineligible for the award of contracts by any
Federal agency;

\(2\) o Have, o have not, within a three-year period preceding this
offer, been convicted of or had a civil judgment rendered against them
for: commission of fraud or a criminal offense in connection with
obtaining, attempting to obtain, or performing a Federal, state or local
government contract or subcontract; violation of Federal or state
antitrust statutes relating to the submission of offers; or commission
of embezzlement, theft, forgery, bribery, falsification or destruction
of records, making false statements, tax evasion, violating Federal
criminal tax laws, or receiving stolen property;

\(3\) o Are, o are not presently indicted for, or otherwise criminally
or civilly charged by a Government entity with, commission of any of
these offenses enumerated in paragraph (h)(2) of this clause; and

\(4\) o Have, o have not, within a three-year period preceding this
offer, been notified of any delinquent Federal taxes in an amount that
exceeds \$3,000 for which the liability remains unsatisfied.

\(i\) Taxes are considered delinquent if both of the following criteria
apply:

\(A\) The tax liability is finally determined. The liability is finally
determined if it has been assessed. A liability is not finally
determined if there is a pending administrative or judicial challenge.
In the case of a judicial challenge to the liability, the liability is
not finally determined until all judicial appeal rights have been
exhausted.

\(B\) The taxpayer is delinquent in making payment. A taxpayer is
delinquent if the taxpayer has failed to pay the tax liability when full
payment was due and required. A taxpayer is not delinquent in cases
where enforced collection action is precluded.

\(ii\) Examples.

\(A\) The taxpayer has received a statutory notice of deficiency, under
I.R.C. §6212, which entitles the taxpayer to seek Tax Court review of a
proposed tax deficiency. This is not a delinquent tax because it is not
a final tax liability. Should the taxpayer seek Tax Court review, this
will not be a final tax liability until the taxpayer has exercised all
judicial appeal rights.

\(B\) The IRS has filed a notice of Federal tax lien with respect to an
assessed tax liability, and the taxpayer has been issued a notice under
I.R.C. §6320 entitling the taxpayer to request a hearing with the IRS
Office of Appeals contesting the lien filing, and to further appeal to
the Tax Court if the IRS determines to sustain the lien filing. In the
course of the hearing, the taxpayer is entitled to contest the
underlying tax liability because the taxpayer has had no prior
opportunity to contest the liability. This is not a delinquent tax
because it is not a final tax liability. Should the taxpayer seek tax
court review, this will not be a final tax liability until the taxpayer
has exercised all judicial appeal rights.

\(C\) The taxpayer has entered into an installment agreement pursuant to
I.R.C. §6159. The taxpayer is making timely payments and is in full
compliance with the agreement terms. The taxpayer is not delinquent
because the taxpayer is not currently required to make full payment.

\(D\) The taxpayer has filed for bankruptcy protection. The taxpayer is
not delinquent because enforced collection action is stayed under 11
U.S.C. §362 (the Bankruptcy Code).
