52:32-57 Certain persons, entities prohibited from bidding on certain public contracts, maintenance of list.
3. a. A person or entity that, at the time of bid or proposal for a new contract or renewal of an existing contract, is identified on a list created pursuant to subsection b. of this section as a person or entity engaging in investment activities in Iran as described in subsection f. of section 2 of this act, shall be ineligible to, and shall not, bid on, submit a proposal for, or enter into or renew, a contract with a State agency for goods or services.
b. Within 90 days of the effective date of this act, the Department of the Treasury shall, using credible information available to the public, develop a list of persons or entities it determines engage in investment activities in Iran as described in subsection f. of section 2.
c. The department shall update the list every 180 days.
d. Before finalizing an initial list pursuant to subsection b. of this section or an updated list pursuant to subsection c. of this section, the department shall do the following before a person or entity is included on the list:
(1) Provide 90 days' written notice of its intent to include the person or entity on the list. The notice shall inform the person or entity that inclusion on the list would make the person or entity ineligible to bid on, submit a proposal for, or enter into or renew, a contract for goods or services with a State agency; and
(2) Provide a person or entity with an opportunity to comment in writing that it is not engaged in investment activities in Iran. If the person or entity demonstrates to the department that the person or entity is not engaged in investment activities in Iran as described in subsection f. of section 2 of this act, the person or entity shall not be included on the list, unless the person or entity is otherwise ineligible to bid on a contract as described in paragraph (3) of subsection a. of section 5 of this act.
(3) The department shall make every effort to avoid erroneously including a person or entity on the list.
