- Description
- NOTICE TO CURRENT AND PROSPECTIVE ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY (EPA) CONTRACTORS As you know, the American Taxpayer Relief Act of 2012 mandates across-the-board spending cuts (known as sequestration) be ordered on March 1, 2013. As required by the law, the President issued a sequestration order canceling billions in budgetary resources across the Federal government for the remainder of the Federal fiscal year. At this time, the Agency is taking every step practicable to mitigate the effects of these cuts. However, but based on the magnitude of these mandated cuts, there will be impacts on current contract awards as well as current and future planned acquisitions. For example, the Agency may decide not to exercise options or may need to negotiate lower prices or other terms via bilateral modifications to meet the constraints imposed by the sequestration. The Agency may also determine it necessary to stop or suspend work, reduce the scope of work, or partially or completely terminate existing contracts for the government's convenience. Additionally, planned contract actions for new work may be rescoped, delayed, or canceled depending on the nature of the work and the degree to which it directly supports the Agency's critical mission needs and goals. The Agency is conducting a detailed analysis of current and pending contract actions that may be impacted. Existing contractors that will be impacted will be contacted directly by the cognizant Contracting Officer. The cognizant Contracting Officer for actions that are in process but not awarded will provide appropriate notifications to prospective and current offerors. Thank you for your continued partnership with the EPA, and for your cooperation as we work together to manage the impacts resulting from the sequestration.
