MONETARY OBLIGATIONS OWED TO THE STATE

During the recent Second Extraordinary Session of the West Virginia Legislature, the legislature passed a bill permitting the State Tax Department and the Commissioner of Highways to enter into an agreement to share certain corporate tax information, including, but not limited to, information related to subcontractors. See Enrolled S.B. 2002. These legislature measures were passed to better ensure that companies engaged in public contract work comply with the States tax laws. Pursuant to section 108.1, of the WVDOHs Standard Specifications for Roads and bridges (adopted 2017), all subcontractors must first be approved by the agency before completing any subcontracting work. Accordingly, it will now be a requirement that a Subcontractor Affidavit be signed for any proposed subcontractor to affirm under oath that it does not owe a defaulting monetary obligation to the State or any of the States political subdivisions.
