INSTRUCTIONS FOR CERTIFICATION

1.

By signing and submitting this form, the grantee is providing the
certification set out on pages 1 and 2.

2.

The certification set out on pages 1 and 2 is a material
representation of fact upon which reliance is placed when the
agency awards the grant. If it is later determined that the grantee
knowingly rendered a false certification, or otherwise violates the
requirements of the Drug-Free Workplace Act, the agency, in
addition to any other remedies available to the Federal
Government, may take action authorized under the Drug-Free
Workplace Act.

3.

Workplaces under grants, for grantees other than individuals,
need not be identified on the certification. If known, they may be
identified in the grant application. If the grantee does not identify
the workplaces at the time of application, or upon award, if there
is no application, the grantee must keep the identity of the
workplace(s) on file in its office and make the information
available for Federal inspection. Failure to identify all known
workplaces constitutes a violation of the grantee's drug-free
workplace requirements.

4.

Workplace identifications must include the actual address of
buildings (or parts of buildings) or other sites where work under
the grant takes place. Categorical descriptions may be used
(e.g., all vehicles of a mass transit authority or State highway
department while in operation, State employees in each local
unemployment office, performers in concert halls or radio
studios).

5.

If the workplace identified to the agency changes during the
performance of the grant, the grantee shall inform the agency of
the change(s), if it previously identified the workplaces in question
(see paragraph three).

6.

Definitions of terms in the Nonprocurement Suspension and
Debarment common rule and Drug-Free Workplace common rule
apply to this certification. Grantees' attention is called, in
particular, to the following definitions from these rules:
"Controlled" substance means a controlled substance in
Schedules I through V of the Controlled Substances Act (21
U.S.C. 812) and as further defined by regulation (21 CFR 1308.11
through 1308.15);
"Conviction" means a finding of guilt (including a plea of nolo
contendere) or imposition of sentence, or both, by any judicial
body charged with the responsibility to determine violations of the
Federal or State criminal drug statutes;
"Criminal drug statute" means a Federal or non-Federal criminal
statute involving the manufacture, distribution, dispensing, use, or
possession of any controlled substance;
"Employee" means the employee of a grantee directly engaged in
the performance of work under a grant, including: (i) all "direct
charge" employees; (ii) all "indirect charge" employees unless
their impact or involvement is insignificant to the performance of
the grant; and, (iii) temporary personnel and consultants who are
directly engaged in the performance of work under the grant and
who are on the grantee's payroll. This definition does not include
workers not on the payroll of the grantee (e.g., volunteers, even if
used to meet a matching requirement; consultants or independent
contractors not on the grantee's payroll; or employees of
subrecipients or subcontractors in covered workplaces).
