CERTIFICATION REGARDING DRUG-FREE WORKPLACE REQUIREMENTS
EXHIBIT C
This certification is required by the regulations implementing the Drug-Free Workplace Act of
1988:45 CFR Part 76, Subpart, F. Sections 76.630(c) and (d)(2) and 76.645(a)(1) and (b) provide
that a Federal agency may designate a central receipt point for STATE-WIDE AND STATE
AGENCY-WIDE certifications, and for notification of criminal drug convictions. For the
Departanent of Health and Human Services, the central pint is: Division of Grants Management and
Oversight, Office of Management and Acquisition, Department of Health and Human Services,
Room 517-D, 200 Independence Avenue, SW Washington, DC 20201.
Certification Regarding Drug-Free Workplace Requirements (Inslructions for Certification)
1. By signing and/or submitting this application or grant agreement, the grantee is providing the
certification set out below.
2. The certification set out below 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 requtremants 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. For grantees other than individuals, Alternate I applies.
4. For grantees who are individuals, Alternate II applies.
5. 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-fi'ce workplace requirements.
6. 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 deparlment while in operation, State
employees in each local unemployment office, performers in concert halls or radio studios).
7. 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 five).
8. 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 coutrolled 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);

or both, by anyjudicial body charged with the responsibility to determine violations of the Federal
or State criminal drug statutes;

distribution, dispensing, use, or possession of any controlled substance;

impact or involvement is insignificant to the performance of the grant; and, (iii) Temporary

workplaces).
