Effective January 1, 2009, all Invitations for Bids (IFB) or Requests for Proposals (RFP) for goods or
services must address the requirements of the Darfur Contracting Act of 2008 (Act). (Public Contract
Code sections 10475, et seq.; Stats. 2008, Ch. 272). The Act was passed by the California Legislature
and signed into law by the Governor to preclude State agencies generally from contracting with
"scrutinized" companies that do business in the African nation of Sudan (of which the Darfur region is
a part), for the reasons described in Public Contract Code section 10475.
A scrutinized company is a company doing business in Sudan as defined in Public Contract Code
section 10476. Scrutinized companies are ineligible to, and cannot, bid on or submit a proposal for a
contract with a State agency for goods or services. (Public Contract Code section 10477(a)).

the previous three years has had) business activities or other operations outside of the United States
to certify that it is not a "scrutinized" company when it submits a bid or proposal to a State agency.
(See # 1 on the sample Attachment).
The following sample Attachment may be included in an IFB or
RFP to satisfy the Act's certification requirements of bidders
and proposers.

7. Three RECREATIONAL BOATING safety issues
This is a Federal Pass-Through `Recreational Boating Safety Grant'.The purpose of the grant is to promote
boating safety and to decrease the number of accidents, injuries, and fatalities on U.S.waters. Clearly identify
three BOATING safety issues that affect recreational boaters in your jurisdiction.Your answer to this question
will be referenced throughout this grant application.
In Fresno County we have identified the following issues as our major safety concerns. Our first
concern is an ignorance of boating laws and water safety, especially around our two rivers. We also
have several lakes that offer people the opportunity to rent vessels and personal watercraft. Our
county population continues to grow, we are over one million residents. Each summer our
population swells from those vacationing and recreating from other jurisdictions, especially in the
areas where our waterways are located. This surge results in an increased usage of our lakes and
rivers. As a result, our law violations, water rescues, and accident investigations increase. Our unit
works closely with our media partners in the County to educate the public on boating laws and water
safety. We also maintain a social media presence across various platforms that promotes boating
and water safety.
Our second concern is the unsafe speed of vessels on the Kings River and operators who are under
the influence of alcohol while boating recreationally. The Kings River in our area of operations is
bifurcated geographically by the Olson Bridge in the city of Reedley to primarily allow for boating
traffic on the southern end of our area of operation and for swimmers and individuals who float on
rafts or kayak on the northern end of the Kings River. Boating traffic is allowed north of the Olson
Bridge; however, the speed is reduced to 10 miles per hour or under depending on the area. We
have seen an increase in boat traffic in this area which is primarily designated for swimmers,
floaters, or kayakers. This recreational boat traffic commonly travels over the posted speed limit and
enforcement action is needed to keep traffic at a safe speed given the presence of people in the
water or in areas that are marked "No wake/5MPH". A common issue seen with vessels travelling
on plane, or more than 10 miles-per-hour, is that the operator is under the influence of alcohol and
did not notice or just completely disregarded the speed limit in this area. This poses a significant risk
to those who are floating, swimming, or kayaking down the river in this area. The current in this area
is swift, the river is narrow, and there are several technical areas where precise vessel handling is
needed in order to bypass natural obstacles and hazards. Due to all of these factors, recreational
boaters are encouraged to operate their vessels in the area south of the Olson Bridge where the
river is much wider, not as swift, allows for speeds up to 40 miles-per-hour, and is restricted from
floaters, swimmers, and kayakers.
Our third concern is that we have seen an increase in the usage of our two rivers. We normally
encounter boats, kayaks, rafts, and swimmers on the river. Each summer thousands of people raft
float the Kings River. In addition, one of our County Parks sits on the San Joaquin River. Thousands
of folks use the San Joaquin River to cool off during the summer. The river is surrounded by
vegetation on both sides of the shorelines. In addition, there is vegetation under the water. The
water levels of the rivers vary during the summer months. This can cause fluctuations in water
speed and visible vegetation. Floaters and swimmers get caught in the vegetation, or"strainers",
each summer. These water hazards are extremely dangerous and require specialized boats and
equipment to successfully rescue someone.

11 b. Describe exactly what is being requested and how this equipment will help mitigate the recreational boating
safety issues you identified in Question 7. If the requested quantity is more than one for any item, explain the

Two LifeSleds rescue boards are being requested to replace old one that is deteriorated over time
and use. These sleds, when attached to a PWC, allow us to rescue people are trapped in strainers
on our riverways or who are in distress on our lakes. They supplement river operations when a boat
is in for repairs. They allow us to also respond to areas where a boat cannot.
11 c. Describe any negative impacts to boating safety and/or boating enforcement if your agency does not receive
its requested grant award.
The sleds help us patrol our rivers when a boat goes down for service.They also allow us to respond to areas
without having to pull a boat off of the river. If we are not awarded, a boat will have to be pulled off the river which
leaves that waterway without a rescue/enforcement boat.

If yes,what percentage can you supplement?
11 f.What other capabilities exist in your region for this equipment?Justify why it is not feasible to borrow this
equipment from a neighboring agency.
When an emergency call for a water rescue response is broadcasted,we do not have the time to check with other
agencies in the area to see if they have rescue sleds that we could borrow. Our county covers a geographical area
of over 6,000 square miles and it would be untimely and ineffective to request this from another agency in an
emergency situation. We need to be able to respond anywhere in the county with the proper equipment and in a
timely fashion.

something specialized for your waterbody to meet your agency's needs? List less expensive models considered
and explain why they are not being requested. List other funding sources available to your agency that could be
used to purchase or partially purchase this equipment.
The model selected is a direct replacement for what we are wanting to replace. It is the perfect size for our PWC's
and meets our needs. Currently our department is in a multi-million dollar shortfall and there is no other funding
source available to us.

11 b. Describe exactly what is being requested and how this equipment will help mitigate the recreational boating
safety issues you identified in Question 7. If the requested quantity is more than one for any item, explain the
need for multiple items. (max. 2000 characters)
I am requesting a new outboard jet motor and required throttle/shift parts, steering upgrade,
replacement of floor, seats, gauges, fish/depth finder, bow light replacement, small motor addition,
swim step replacement, new Bimini top, new engine cover. These items are old, some not working,
and some are broken. The current motor on the boat is approaching the end of its normal lifecycle.
The retrofitting of this vessel will allow us to provide lifesaving rescue repsonse and will be used to
conduct boating enforcement to mitigate the risk of speeding vessels and boating under the
influence violations. This enforcement will ultimately reduce the amount of boating accidents and
fatalities on our waterways.
11 c. Describe any negative impacts to boating safety and/or boating enforcement if your agency does not receive
its requested grant award.
If we are unable to obtain this equipment our agency will not be able to effectively conduct lifesaving rescue
operations, and the number of drownings will increase from previous years.This will also increase the amount of
hours that will be needed to recover the drowned persons from the water way.Additionally, our agency will not be
able to effectively enforce boating laws, primarily speed and BUI violations, in this area of operation since we cannot
deploy conventional patrol vessels on this waterway for enforcement. Due to this,there is a significant risk of
increased boating collisions where vessel speed and boating under the influence will be primarily collision factors.

11 f.What other capabilities exist in your region for this equipment?Justify why it is not feasible to borrow this
equipment from a neighboring agency.
We cannot borrow this equipment from another agency and it would not be practical to request assistance from an
outside agency as our county is over 6,000 square miles.A timely response would not be practical from another
agency for rescure operations. Nor can we request this equipment or another vessel for day-to-day boat patrol or
enforcement activity.
11 g. How and why was this particular model selected? Explain if this is standard equipment or do you need
something specialized for your waterbody to meet your agency's needs? List less expensive models considered
and explain why they are not being requested. List other funding sources available to your agency that could be
used to purchase or partially purchase this equipment.
These items were specifically chosen to provide adequate operational capabilities given the body of water which it is
operating on. Our rivers are swift, can be shallow in areas, narrow, and can be very techinical to navigate with
natural hazards posing a collision risk.This is considered standard equipment for this type of waterway and allows
us to have enough power to effectively operate in a current with deputies on board to operate the vessel, conduct
rescues and enforcement action, and allows us to transport equipment and individuals without risk of capsizing. Our
agency has no other funding sources as we are in a multi-million dollar budget deficit.
