In awarding contracts for the purchase of work, labor, services, supplies, equipment,

award a subcontract to an MBE/WBE; however, it may not unlawfully discriminate
against said WBE/MBE. A finding of a discriminatory practice by the City's MBE/WBE
Utilization Board shall prohibit that person or entity from being awarded a City contract

States (I.C. 5-16-8-1). I hereby certify that I and all subcontractors employed by me for
this project will use steel products or foundry products made in the United States on this
project if awarded. I understand I have an affirmative duty to notify the City in my bid
that my proposal does not include the use of steel products or foundry products made in
the United States. I understand it is my sole obligation and responsibility to provide a
justification to the City, subject to review and approval, why the cost of United States
made steel or foundry products is unreasonable. Prior to award and upon submission of
bid which does not use steel products or foundry products made in the United States, the
City, through its director of public works, shall make a determination if the price of
United States made steel or foundry is unreasonable. I understand that violations
hereunder may result in forfeiture of contractual payments.
