A. General Notice is hereby given to the LPA or its subcontractor that failure to carry out the requirements set forth in 49 CFR, Sec. 23.43(a) shall constitute a breach of contract and, after notification, may result in termination of the contract or such remedy as the STATE deems appropriate. 2. The referenced section requires the following policy and Disadvantaged Business Enterprise (DBE) obligation to be included in all subsequent agreements between the LPA and any subcontractor. a. It is the policy of the Indiana Department of Transportation that disadvantaged business enterprises, as defined in 49 CFR, Part 23, shall have the Page 2 of 14 Pages VERS 1/4/91 maximum opportunity to participate in the per- formance of contracts financed in whole or part with Federal funds under this contract. Consequently the DBE requirements of the 49 CFR, Part 23, apply to this contract. b. The LPA agrees to ensure that disadvantaged business enterprises, as defined in 49 CFR, Part 23, have the maximum opportunity to participate in the performance of contracts and subcontracts financed in whole or in part with Federal funds provided under this contract.

As part of the LPA's equal opportunity affirmative action program it is required that the LPA shall take positive affirmative actions and put forth good faith efforts to solicit proposals or bids from and to utilize Disadvantaged Business Enterprise subcontractors, vendors or suppliers. 4. B. Definitions The following definitions apply to this section. 1. "Disadvantaged Business Enterprise" means a small business concern: (a) Which is at least 51 percent owned by one or more socially and economically disadvantaged individuals, or, in the case of any publicly owned business, at least 51 percent of the stock of which is owned by one or more socially and economically disadvantaged individuals: and (b) whose management and daily business operations are controlled by one or more of the socially and economically disadvantaged individuals who own it. 2.
