H.15. POSSESSION, USE AND TRANSFER OF SELECTED BIOLOGICAL AGENTS OR TOXINS
The contractor shall not conduct work involving select agents or toxins under this contract until
it and any associated subcontractor(s) comply with the following:
For prime or subcontract awards to domestic institutions that possess, use, and/or transfer Select
Agents under this contract, the institution must comply with the provisions of 42 CFR part 73, 7
CFR part 331, and/or 9 CFR part 121
(xxxx://xxx.xxxxx.xxxx.xxx/xxxxxxxx/xx_xxxxxxxxxxx/XxxxxXxxx0-00-00.xxx), as required,
before using DHHS funds for research involving Select Agents. No DHHS funds can be used for
research involving Select Agents if the final registration certificate is denied.
For prime or subcontract awards to foreign institutions that possess, use, and/or transfer Select
Agents under this contract, before using DHHS funds for any work directly involving the Select
Agents, the foreign institution must provide information satisfactory to the DHHS that safety,
security, and training standards equivalent to those described in 42 CFR part 73, 7 CFR part 331,
and/or 9 CFR part 121 at:
(xxxx://xxx.xxxxx.xxxx.xxx/xxxxxxxx/xx_xxxxxxxxxxx/XxxxxXxxx0-00-00.xxx)
are in place and will be administered on behalf of all Select Agent work sponsored by these funds.
The process for making this determination includes inspection of the foreign laboratory facility
by an HHS representative. During this inspection, the foreign institution must provide the
following information: concise summaries of safety, security, and training plans; names of
individuals at the foreign institution who will have access to the Select Agents and procedures
for ensuring that only approved and appropriate individuals, in accordance with institution
procedures, will have access to the Select Agents under the contract; and copies of or links to
any applicable laws, regulations, policies, and procedures applicable to that institution for the
safe and secure possession, use, and/or transfer of select agents. An DHHS-chaired committee of
U.S. federal employees (including representatives of select DHHS grants/contracts and scientific
program management, CDC, Department of Justice and other federal intelligence agencies, and
Department of State) will ultimately assess the results of the laboratory facility inspection, and
the regulations, policies, and procedures of the foreign institution for equivalence to the U.S.
requirements described in 42 CFR part 73, 7 CFR part 331, and/or 9 CFR part 121
(xxxx://xxx.xxxxx.xxxx.xxx/xxxxxxxx/xx_xxxxxxxxxxx/XxxxxXxxx0-00-00.xxx). The committee
will provide recommendations to the OPHEMC Director, DHHS. The Director (or designee) will make
the approval decision and notify the Contracting Officer. The Contracting Officer will inform the
prime contractor of the approval status of the foreign institution. No DHHS funds can be used for
research involving Select Agents at a foreign institution until DHHS grants this approval.

information about the registration process for domestic institutions, are available on the Select
Agent Program Web site at

I.4 Additional Contract Clauses of SECTION I — Added in full text
52.222-39 Notification of Employee Rights Concerning Payment of Union Dues or Fees.
Notification of Employee Rights Concerning Payment of Union Dues or Fees (Dec 2004)
(a) Definition. As used in this clause—
“United States” means the 50 States, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, the Northern Mariana
Islands, American Samoa, Guam, the U.S. Virgin Islands, and Wake Island.
(b) Except as provided in paragraph (e) of this clause, during the term of this contract, the
Contractor shall post a notice, in the form of a poster, informing employees of their rights
concerning union membership and payment of union dues and fees, in conspicuous places in and about
all its plants and offices, including all places where notices to employees are customarily posted.
The notice shall include the following information (except that the information pertaining to
National Labor Relations Board shall not be included in notices posted in the plants or offices of
carriers subject to the Railway Labor Act, as amended (45 U.S.C. 151-188)).
Notice to Employees
Under Federal law, employees cannot be required to join a union or maintain membership in a union
in order to retain their jobs. Under certain conditions, the law permits a union and an employer to
enter into a union-security agreement requiring employees to pay uniform periodic dues and
initiation fees. However, employees who are not union members can object to the use of their
payments for certain purposes and can only be required to pay their share of union costs relating
to collective bargaining, contract administration, and grievance adjustment.
If you do not want to pay that portion of dues or fees used to support activities not related to
collective bargaining, contract administration, or grievance adjustment, you are entitled to an
appropriate reduction in your payment. If you believe that you have been required to pay dues or
fees used in part to support activities not related to collective bargaining, contract
administration, or grievance adjustment, you may be entitled to a refund and to an appropriate
reduction in future payments.
For further information concerning your rights, you may wish to contact the National Labor
Relations Board (NLRB) either at one of its Regional offices or at the following address or toll
free number:

(c) The Contractor shall comply with all provisions of Executive Order 13201 of February 17, 2001,
and related implementing regulations at 29 CFR Part 470, and orders of the Secretary of Labor.
(d) In the event that the Contractor does not comply with any of the requirements set forth in
paragraphs (b), (c), or (g), the Secretary may direct that this contract be cancelled, terminated,
or suspended in whole or in part, and declare the Contractor ineligible for further Government
contracts in accordance with procedures at 29 CFR Part 470, Subpart B—Compliance Evaluations,
Complaint Investigations and Enforcement Procedures. Such other sanctions or remedies may be
imposed as are provided by 29 CFR Part 470, which implements Executive Order 13201, or as are
otherwise provided by law.
(e) The requirement to post the employee notice in paragraph (b) does not apply to—
(1) Contractors and subcontractors that employ fewer than 15 persons;
(2) Contractor establishments or construction work sites where no union has been formally
recognized by the Contractor or certified as the exclusive bargaining representative of the
Contractor’s employees;
(3) Contractor establishments or construction work sites located in a jurisdiction named in the
definition of the United States in which the law of that jurisdiction forbids enforcement of
union-security agreements;
(4) Contractor facilities where upon the written request of the Contractor, the Department of Labor
Deputy Assistant Secretary for Labor-Management Programs has waived the posting requirements with
respect to any of the Contractor’s facilities if the Deputy Assistant Secretary finds that the
Contractor has demonstrated that—
(i) The facility is in all respects separate and distinct from activities of the Contractor related
to the performance of a contract; and
(ii) Such a waiver will not interfere with or impede the effectuation of the Executive order; or
(5) Work outside the United States that does not involve the recruitment or employment of workers
within the United States.
Page 23 of 27
(f) The Department of Labor publishes the official employee notice in two variations; one for
contractors covered by the Railway Labor Act and a second for all other contractors. The Contractor
shall—
(1) Obtain the required employee notice poster from the Division of Interpretations and Standards,
Office of Labor-Management Standards, U.S. Department of Labor, 000 Xxxxxxxxxxxx Xxxxxx, XX, Xxxx
X-0000, Xxxxxxxxxx, XX 00000, or from any field office of the Department’s Office of

(2) Download a copy of the poster from the Office of Labor-Management Standards website at
xxxx://xxx.xxxx.xxx.xxx; or
(3) Reproduce and use exact duplicate copies of the Department of Labor’s official poster.
(g) The Contractor shall include the substance of this clause in every subcontract or purchase
order that exceeds the simplified acquisition threshold, entered into in connection with this
contract, unless exempted by the Department of Labor Deputy Assistant Secretary for
Labor-Management Programs on account of special circumstances in the national interest under
authority of 29 CFR 470.3(c). For indefinite quantity subcontracts, the Contractor shall include
the substance of this clause if the value of orders in any calendar year of the subcontract is
expected to exceed the simplified acquisition threshold. Pursuant to 29 CFR Part 470, Subpart
B—Compliance Evaluations, Complaint Investigations and Enforcement Procedures, the Secretary of
Labor may direct the Contractor to take such action in the enforcement of these regulations,
including the imposition of sanctions for noncompliance with respect to any such subcontract or
purchase order. If the Contractor becomes involved in litigation with a subcontractor or vendor, or
is threatened with such involvement, as a result of such direction, the Contractor may request the
United States, through the Secretary of Labor, to enter into such litigation to protect the
interests of the United States.
52.227-14, Rights in Data Alternate II (June 1987)

specify the delivery of limited rights data, or the Contracting Officer may require by written
request the delivery of limited rights data that has been withheld or would otherwise be
withholdable. If delivery of such data is so required, the Contractor may affix the following
“Limited Rights Notice” to the data and the Government will thereafter treat the data, subject
to the provisions of paragraphs (e) and (f) of this clause, in accordance with such Notice:
