Article 11 <br />Communication and Cooperation with the Department of Homeland <br />Security and Immigration Officials <br />(1) All recipients and other recipients of funds under this award must agree that they <br />will comply with the following requirements related to coordination and cooperation <br />with the Department of Homeland Security and immigration officials: (a) They must <br />comply with the requirements of 8 U.S.C. §§ 1373 and 1644. These statutes <br />prohibit restrictions on information sharing by state and local government entities <br />with DHS regarding the citizenship or immigration status, lawful or unlawful, of any <br />individual. Additionally, 8 U.S.C. § 1373 prohibits any person or agency from <br />prohibiting, or in any way restricting, a Federal, State, or local government entity <br />from doing any of the following with respect to information regarding the immigration <br />status of any individual: 1) sending such information to, or requesting or receiving <br />such information from, Federal immigration officials; 2) maintaining such <br />information; or 3) exchanging such information with any other Federal, State, or <br />local government entity; (b) They must comply with other relevant laws related to <br />immigration, inducting prohibitions on encouraging or inducing an alien to come to, <br />enter, or reside in the United States in violation of law, 8 U.S.C. § 1324(a)(1)(A)(iv), <br />prohibitions on transporting or moving illegal aliens, 8 U.S.C. § 1324(a)(1)(A)(ii), <br />prohibitions on harboring, concealing, or shielding from detection illegal aliens, 8 <br />U.S.C. § 1324(a)(1)(A)(iii), and any applicable conspiracy, aiding or abetting, or <br />attempt liability regarding these statutes; (c) That they will honor requests for <br />cooperation, such as participation in joint operations, sharing of information, or <br />requests for short term detention of an alien pursuant to a valid detainer. A <br />jurisdiction does not fail to comply with this requirement merely because it lacks the <br />necessary resources to assist in a particular instance; (d) That they will provide <br />access to detainees, such as when an immigration officer seeks to interview a <br />person who might be a removable alien; and (e) That they will not leak or otherwise <br />publicize the existence of an immigration enforcement operation. (2) The recipient <br />must certify under penalty of perjury pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1746 and using a form <br />that is acceptable to DHS, that it will comply with the requirements of this term. <br />Additionally, the recipient agrees that it will require any subrecipients or contractors <br />to certify in the same manner that they will comply with this term prior to providing <br />them with any funding under this award. (3) The recipient agrees that compliance <br />with this term is material to the Government's decision to make or continue with this <br />award and that the Department of homeland Security may terminate this grant, or <br />take any other allowable enforcement action, if the recipient fails to comply with this <br />term. <br />Article 12 Copyright <br />Recipients must affix the applicable copyright notices of 17 U.S.C. §§ 401 or 402 to <br />any work first produced under federal awards and also include an <br />acknowledgement that the work was produced under a federal award (including the <br />federal award number and federal awarding agency). As detailed in 2 C.F.R. § <br />200.315, a federal awarding agency reserves a royalty -free, nonexclusive, and <br />irrevocable right to reproduce, publish, or otherwise use the work for federal <br />purposes and to authorize others to do so. <br />Article 13 <br />Article 14 <br />Debarment and Suspension <br />Recipients must comply with the non -procurement debarment and suspension <br />regulations implementing Executive Orders 12549 and 12689 set forth at 2 C.F.R. <br />Part 180 as implemented by DHS at 2 C.F.R. Part 3000. These regulations prohibit <br />recipients from entering into covered transactions (such as subawards and <br />contracts) with certain parties that are debarred, suspended, or otherwise excluded <br />from or ineligible for participation in federal assistance programs or activities. <br />Drug -Free Workplace Regulations <br />Recipients must comply with drug -free workplace requirements in Subpart B (or <br />Subpart C, if the recipient is an individual) of 2 C.F.R. Part 3001, which adopts the <br />Government- wide implementation (2 C.F.R. Part 182) of the Drug -Free Workplace <br />Act of 1988 (41 U.S.C. §§ 8101-8106). <br />DHS-FEMA-EMPG-FY25 <br />Page 32 of 50 City of Everett, E26-223 <br />
