4W 0 Personal Net Worth The County will require all disadvantaged owners of currently -certified DBEs whose eligibility under Part 26 it reviews to submit a statement of personal net worth by providing to the County a copy of the firm's most recent annual audit with the bid submittal. Information Collection and Reporting The County will create a bidders list, consisting of information about all DBE and non -DBE firms that bid or quote on DOT -assisted contracts. The purpose of this requirement is to allow use of the bidders list approach to calculating overall goals. The bidders list will include the name, address, DBE/non-DBE status, age, and annual gross receipts of firms and will be derived from the MBE Directory listings of DBEs within a one hundred mile radius of Indian River County. Monitoring Payments to DBEs The County will require prime contractors to maintain records and documents of payments to DBEs for three years following the performance of the contract. These records will be made available for inspection upon request by any authorized representative of the County or DOT. This reporting requirement also extends to any certified DBE subcontractor. The County will keep a naming tally of actual payments to DBE firms for work committed to them at the time of contract award. The County will perform interim audits of contract payments to DBEs. The audit will review payments to DBE subcontractors to ensure that the actual amount paid to DBE subcontractors equals or exceeds the dollar amounts stated in the schedule of DBE participation. Reporting to DOT The County will report DBE participation on a quarterly basis, using DOT Form 4630. These reports will reflect payments actually made to DBEs on DOT assisted contracts. The County will safeguard from disclosure to third parties information that may reasonably be regarded as confidential business information, consistent with Federal, state, and local law. Notwithstanding any contrary provisions of state or local law, the County will not release personal financial information submitted in response to the personal net worth requirement to a third party (other than DOT) without the written consent of the submitter.
