Section 22VAC30-60-310 - Unauthorized awards to debarred, suspended, or high-risk subcontractors

A. An Area Agency on Aging shall make awards only to responsible subcontractors possessing the ability to perform successfully under the terms and conditions of the proposed contract. Consideration shall be given to such matters as the integrity of the subcontractor, compliance with public policy, record of past performance, and financial and technical resources.

B. An Area Agency on Aging shall not execute any subcontract at any tier to any party that is debarred or suspended or is otherwise excluded from or ineligible for participation in federal assistance programs.

C. An Area Agency on Aging shall require its proposed subcontractors at any tier to certify whether they have been excluded from participation in federal assistance programs.

D. If an Area Agency on Aging believes that there are compelling reasons for executing a subcontract with a debarred, suspended, or voluntarily excluded provider in a particular area, the area agency may apply to the Virginia Department for Aging and Rehabilitative Services for a waiver from this requirement. Such waivers shall be granted only in unusual circumstances upon the written determination, by an authorized Virginia Department for Aging and Rehabilitative Services official, that there are compelling reasons justifying the participation.
