**ECONOMIC IMPACT AND COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT PLAN**

**Solicitation Provision**

**A. BACKGROUND**

Under the University of California's contract with the DOE, the
University is required to implement effective programs that enhance its
relationships with the surrounding communities and demonstrate effective
partnerships with regional entities for improving economic development
and diversification, and education in Northern New Mexico ("NNM"),
defined as the counties of Sandoval, Santa Fe, Los Alamos, Rio Arriba,
San Miguel, Taos, and Mora counties and the Pueblos located therein. The
Laboratory has implemented the Consortium of Major Subcontractors in
order to involve its subcontractors in pursuing the Laboratory's
community involvement objectives. Subcontractors, through their Northern
New Mexico Economic Impact and Community Development Plan (EICDP), shall
address the following categories (defined further in Table 1):

1.  Intrinsic outcomes of EICDP scope of work

2.  Economic Development

3.  Educational Enrichment

4.  Corporate Citizenship

**B. OFFERORS EICDP COMMITMENT REQUIREMENT**

As evidence of a commitment to the development and growth within NNM,
offeror's shall state their aggregate commitment of their EICDP as a
percentage of net billed revenues on the subcontract and make their best
effort to achieve these percentages. Offerors shall allocate its
aggregate commitment in the format under letter C, across the three
categories defined under Table 1. These three categories are the basis
for the Economic Impact and Community Development Plan discussed in D
below.

**D. SUCCESSFUL OFFEROR EICDP COMMITMENT REQUIREMENT**

The successful Offeror(s) (Subcontractor) will begin developing its
EICDP immediately upon notice of award and deliver its final Plan to the
Contract Administrator within 60 days after notice of award.

The Subcontractor will work with:

-   The LANL Small Business Program Team which will guide the
    Subcontractor through EICDP formatting, reporting, modification and
    evaluation requirements and procedures.

-   The Regional Development Corporation (RDC) or the LANL Designated
    Community Development Organization which will provide an orientation
    to economic development in Northern New Mexico and assist the
    Subcontractor in selecting viable projects;

-   The Consortium of Major LANL Subcontractors which will outline its
    strategy for pooling resources to address regional economic
    development and assist the Subcontractor in project selection;

The EICDP will detail how the Subcontractor's commitment will be used to
support economic development and diversification, educational
enrichment, and corporate citizenship in Northern New Mexico and
coordinate the economic development mission of the Consortium. The EICDP
will state the Subcontractor's activities and goals for each year of the
subcontract. Participation in the Consortium will be an essential
component of the subcontractor's EICDP implementation.

The Subcontractor's EICDP shall address the following categories defined
in Table 1.

1.  Economic Development

2.  Educational Enrichment

3.  Corporate Citizenship

The Subcontractor's EICDP shall not include the intrinsic outcomes of
