About this statute

This section says the public contract code is intended to make public contract law clearer, easier to find, and better aligned with competitive bidding rules. This chapter may be cited as the State Contract Act. Some contracts are exempt from this chapter: contracts to buy supplies or materials under Chapter 2, and contracts needing emergency work or remedial measures to deal with toxic substance releases and protect the public. Certain improvements on state waterfront property in San Francisco, under the San Francisco Port Commission, are excluded from this chapter. Work performed by prisoners under an order from the Secretary of the Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation or the California Correctional Training and Rehabilitation Authority is not subject to this chapter. For prison construction projects or additions, the total cost may not exceed $50,000 unless first approved by the State Public Works Board.

(a) All contracts for any improvement or unit of work when the cost, according to the estimate of the engineer, will exceed two thousand dollars ($2,000), shall be let to the lowest responsible bidder or bidders in the manner provided in this article. The board shall first determine whether the contract shall be let as a single unit, or shall be divided into severable parts, or both, according to the best interests of the district. The board shall call for bids and advertise the call by three insertions in a daily newspaper of general circulation or by two insertions in a weekly newspaper of general circulation printed and published in the district inviting sealed proposals for the construction or performance of the improvement or work before any contract is made. The call for bids shall state whether the work is to be performed as a unit or shall be divided into severable specific parts, or both, as stated in the call. The board may let the work by single contract for the whole as a unit or it may divide the work into severable parts by separate contracts, as stated in the call, according to the best interests of the district.

The board shall also have the right to reject any bid. (b) In the event no proposals are received pursuant to advertisement, or the estimated cost of the work does not exceed two thousand dollars ($2,000), or the work consists of channel protection, maintenance work, or emergency work, the board of supervisors may, without advertising for bids, have the work done by day labor, under the direction of the board, by contract, or by a combination of the two. In case of an emergency, if notice for bids to let contracts will not be given, the board shall comply with Chapter 2.5 (commencing with Section 22050). (c) The district may acquire in the open market, without advertising for bids, materials, equipment, and supplies for use in any work or for any other purpose; provided, however, that materials and supplies for use in any new construction work or improvement, except work referred to in subdivision (b), shall not be purchased if the cost exceeds two thousand five hundred dollars ($2,500), without advertising for bids and awarding the contract to the lowest responsible bidder.

(a) All contracts for any improvement or unit of work, when the cost according to the estimate of the engineer will exceed fifteen thousand dollars ($15,000), shall be let to the lowest responsible bidder or bidders as provided in this article. The board shall first determine whether the contract shall be let as a single unit, or divided into severable parts.

(d) As used in this section, “informal bidding procedures” means that the board shall, at a minimum, award a contract to the lowest responsible bidder after publishing a notice which generally describes the work to be performed and invites written bids in a newspaper of general circulation in the agency once a week for two successive weeks. The board shall obtain a minimum of three written bids. (Amended by Stats. 2010, Ch. 697, Sec. 93. (SB 189) Effective January 1, 2011. Operative July 1, 2012, by Sec. 105 of Ch. 697.)

(a) The Crestline-Lake Arrowhead Water Agency shall have power to prescribe methods for the construction of works and for the letting of contracts for the construction of works, structures, or equipment, or the performance or furnishing of labor, materials, or supplies, necessary or convenient for carrying out any of the purposes of this act or for the acquisition or disposal of any real or personal property. However, all contracts for the construction of any improvement or unit of work, when the cost, according to the estimate of the engineer, will exceed twenty-five thousand dollars ($25,000), shall be let to the lowest responsible bidder or bidders as provided in this article. The board shall first determine whether the contract shall be let as a single unit or divided into severable parts. The board shall advertise for bids by three insertions in a daily newspaper of general circulation or by two insertions in a weekly newspaper of general circulation printed and published in the agency, inviting sealed proposals for the construction or performance of the improvement or work. The call for bids shall state whether the work shall be performed in one unit or divided into parts. The work may be let under a single contract or several contracts, as stated in the call. The board shall require the successful bidders to file with the board good and sufficient bonds to be approved by the board conditioned upon the faithful performance of the contract and upon the payment of their claims for labor and material. The bonds shall comply with Title 3 (commencing with Section 9000) of Part 6 of Division 4 of the Civil Code. The board may reject any bid. (b) In the event all proposals are rejected or no proposals are received, or the estimated cost of the work does not exceed five thousand dollars ($5,000), or the work consists of channel protection, maintenance work, or emergency work, the board may have the work done by force account without advertising for bids. In case of an emergency, if notice for bids to let contracts will not be given, the board shall comply with Chapter 2.5 (commencing with Section 22050). (c) The agency may purchase in the open market without advertising for bids, materials and supplies for use in any work, either under contract or by force account. However, materials and supplies for use in any new construction work or improvement, except work referred to in subdivision (b), may not be purchased if the cost exceeds twenty-five thousand dollars ($25,000), without advertising for bids and awarding the contract to the lowest responsible bidder.

The procurement process for progressive design-build projects shall proceed as follows: (a) The district shall prepare and issue a request for qualifications in order to select a design-build entity to execute the project. The request for qualifications shall include, but need not be limited to, the following elements: (1) Documentation of the size, type, and desired design character of the project and any other information deemed necessary to describe adequately the district’s needs, including the expected cost range, the methodology that will be used by the district to evaluate the design-build entity’s qualifications, the procedure for final selection of the design-build entity, and any other information deemed necessary by the district to inform interested parties of the contracting opportunity. (2) Significant factors that the district reasonably expects to consider in evaluating qualifications, including technical design and construction expertise, and all other non-price-related factors. The district may require that a preliminary cost estimate, including the basis for the estimate, be included in the design-build entities’ responses and may consider those costs in evaluation of the statements of qualifications. (3) The relative importance or the weight assigned to each of the factors identified in the request for qualifications. (4) A request for statements of qualifications with a template for the statement that is prepared by the district. The district shall require all of the following information in the statement and indicate, in the template, that the following information is required: (A) If the design-build entity is a privately held corporation, limited liability company, partnership, or joint venture, a listing of all of the entity’s shareholders, partners, or members known at the time of the statement of qualification submission who will perform work on the project. (B) Evidence that the members of the design-build team have completed, or have demonstrated the experience, competency, capability, and capacity to complete projects of similar size, scope, or complexity, and that proposed personnel have sufficient experience and training to competently manage and complete the design and construction of the project, and a financial statement that ensures that the design-build entity has the capacity to complete the project. (C) The licenses, registration, and credentials required to design and construct the project, including, but not limited to, information on the revocation or suspension of any license, credential, or registration. (D) Evidence that establishes that the design-build entity has the capacity to obtain all required payment and performance bonding, liability insurance, and errors and omissions insurance. (E) Information concerning workers’ compensation experience history and a worker safety program. (F) If the proposed design-build entity is a corporation, limited liability company, partnership, joint venture, or other legal entity, a copy of the organizational documents or agreement committing to form the organization. (G) An acceptable safety record. A proposer’s safety record shall be deemed acceptable if its experience modification rate for the most recent three-year period is an average of 1.00 or less, and its average total recordable injury or illness rate and average lost work rate for the most recent three-year period does not exceed the applicable statistical standards for its business category or if the proposer is a party to an alternative dispute resolution system as provided for in Section 3201.5 of the Labor Code. (5) The information required under this subdivision shall be certified under penalty of perjury by the design-build entity and its general partners or joint venture members. (b) At the close of the solicitation period, the district shall review the submissions. The district may evaluate submissions based solely upon the information provided in each design-build entity’s statement of qualifications. The district may also interview some or all of the design-build entities to further evaluate their qualifications for the project. (c) Notwithstanding any other provision of this code, upon issuance of a contract award, the district shall publicly announce its award, identifying the design-build entity to which the award is made, along with a statement regarding the basis of the award. The statement regarding the district’s contract award and the contract file shall provide sufficient information to satisfy an external audit. (d) After selecting a design-build entity based on qualifications, the district may enter into a contract and direct the design-build entity to begin design and preconstruction activities sufficient to establish a guaranteed maximum price for the project. (e) (1) Upon agreement of the guaranteed maximum price for the project, the district, at its sole and absolute discretion, may amend its contract with the design-build entity to contract for the remaining design, preconstruction, and construction activities sufficient to complete and close out the project, and will amend the contract to be consistent with the guaranteed maximum price. In the event that there are unforeseen site conditions or changes initiated at the request of the district, the guaranteed maximum price shall be modified if necessary. (2) If the costs for completing all remaining design, preconstruction, and construction activities sufficient to complete and close out the project exceed the guaranteed maximum price, the costs exceeding the guaranteed maximum price shall be the responsibility of the design-build entity. If the costs for these activities are less than the guaranteed maximum price, the design-build entity shall not be entitled to the difference between the costs and the guaranteed maximum price, unless there is a prior written agreement concerning sharing of these proceeds. For purposes of this section, cost shall include the design-build entity’s direct costs, general conditions, overhead, and fee. (f) If the district and the design-build entity do not reach agreement on a guaranteed maximum price, or the district otherwise elects not to amend the design-build entity’s contract to complete the remaining work, the district may solicit proposals to complete the project from other firms that submitted statements of qualifications or requests for proposals. The district may also, upon written determination that it is in the best interest of the district to do so, formally solicit proposals from other design-build entities. (g) (1) The district, in each design-build request for qualifications, may identify specific types of subcontractors that shall be included in the design-build entity’s statement of qualifications. All construction subcontractors that are identified in the statement of qualifications shall be afforded the protections of Chapter 4 (commencing with Section 4100) of Part 1. (2) Following award of the design-build contract, except for those construction subcontractors listed in the statement of qualifications, the design-build entity shall proceed as listed in this subdivision in awarding construction subcontracts with a value exceeding one-half of 1 percent of the contract price allocable to construction work. (A) Provide public notice of availability of work to be subcontracted in accordance with the publication requirements applicable to the competitive bidding process of the district, including a fixed date and time on which qualifications statements, bids, or proposals will be due. (B) Establish reasonable qualification criteria and standards. (C) Award the subcontract either on a best value basis or to the lowest responsible bidder. The process may include prequalification or short-listing. (3) Subcontractors awarded construction subcontracts under this subdivision shall be afforded all the protections of Chapter 4 (commencing with Section 4100) of Part 1. (4) A construction subcontractor licensed pursuant to Chapter 9 (commencing with Section 7000) of Division 3 of the Business and Professions Code that provides design services used on a project authorized by this section shall not be subject to any liability arising from their design if the construction subcontract for that design is not performed by that subcontractor. (5) If the district and the design-build entity do not reach agreement on a guaranteed maximum price, or the district otherwise elects not to amend the design-build entity’s contract to complete the remaining work, and the district elects to contract with a new design-build entity to complete the remaining work, the design professionals responsible for performing design services on behalf of the design-build entity shall have sole liability for their design errors and omissions. (h) (1) The district shall submit to the relevant committees of the Legislature, on or before January 1, 2027, a report containing a description of each public works project procured by the district through the progressive design-build process described in this article that is completed after January 1, 2023, and before December 1, 2026. (2) The report shall include, but is not limited to, all of the following information: (A) A description of the project and the design-build entity that was awarded the contract for the project. (B) The initial estimated, actual final project costs, and guaranteed maximum price. (C) An assessment of the selection process and criteria required by this article. (D) An assessment of the effects of the progressive design-build process described in this article on cost and schedule for the project. (E) The number of specialty subcontractors listed by construction trade type, on each project, that provided construction services, but did not meet the target price for their scope of work. (F) Whether or not any portion of a design prepared by the specialty subcontractor that did not perform the construction work for that design was used by the district. (G) In instances where the district determined that the guaranteed maximum price of any subcontract exceeded the anticipated target price for that portion of the project, which subcontracts were impacted and on what basis the district determined what the anticipated target price was. (H) The number of specialty subcontractors listed by construction trade type, on each project, that meet the definition of a small business under subparagraphs (A) and (B) of paragraph (1) of subdivision (d) of Section 14837 of the Government Code. (I) The number of specialty subcontractors listed by construction trade type, on each project, that meet the definition of a microbusiness under paragraph (2) of subdivision (d) of Section 14837 of the Government Code. (3) The report shall be submitted in compliance with Section 9795 of the Government Code and may be combined with the report required pursuant to Section 21568.5.

The procurement process for Construction Manager/General Contractor method projects shall proceed as follows: (a) (1) The district shall establish a procedure for the evaluation and selection of a construction manager through a request for qualifications (RFQ). The RFQ shall include, but not be limited to, the following: (A) If the construction manager is a partnership, limited partnership, or other association, a list of all the partners, general partners, or association members known at the time of the statement of qualifications submission who will participate in the Construction Manager/General Contractor method contract. (B) Evidence that the members of the construction manager have completed, or demonstrated the experience, competency, capability, and capacity to complete, projects of similar size, scope, or complexity, and that proposed key personnel have sufficient experience and training to competently manage and complete construction of the project, as well as a financial statement that assures the district that the construction manager has the capacity to complete the project, construction expertise, and an acceptable safety record. (C) The licenses, registration, and credentials required to construct the project, including information on the revocation or suspension of any license, registration, or credential. (D) Evidence that establishes the construction manager has the capacity to obtain all required payment and performance bonding, liability insurance, and errors and omissions insurance. (E) Any prior serious or willful violation of the California Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1973 (Part 1 (commencing with Section 6300) of the Labor Code), or the federal Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1970 (Public Law 91-596), settled against any member of the construction manager, and information concerning workers’ compensation experience history and worker safety program. (F) Information concerning any debarment, disqualification, or removal from a federal, state, or local government public works project. Any instance in which a construction manager, its owners, officers, or managing employees submitted a bid on a public works project and were found to be nonresponsive or were found by an awarding body not to be a responsible bidder. (G) Any instance in which the construction manager, or its owners, officers, or managing employees, defaulted on a construction contract. (H) Any violations of the Contractors State License Law (Chapter 9 (commencing with Section 7000) of Division 3 of the Business and Professions Code), excluding alleged violations of federal or state law including the payment of wages, benefits, apprenticeship requirements, or personal income tax withholding, or of the Federal Insurance Contributions Act (26 U.S.C. Sec. 3101 et seq.) withholding requirements settled against any member of the construction manager. (I) Information concerning the bankruptcy or receivership of any member of the construction manager, including information concerning any work completed by a surety. (J) Information concerning all settled adverse claims, disputes, or lawsuits between the owner of a public works project and any member of the construction manager during the five years preceding submission of a bid pursuant to this section, in which the claim, settlement, or judgment exceeds fifty thousand dollars ($50,000). Information shall also be provided concerning any work completed by a surety during this period. (K) In the case of partnership or other association that is not a legal entity, a copy of the agreement creating the partnership or association and specifying that all partners or association members agree to be fully liable for the performance under the contract. (L) For the purpose of this paragraph, a construction manager’s safety record shall be deemed acceptable if their experience modification rate for the most recent three-year period is an average of 1.00 or less, and their average total recordable injury/illness rate and average lost work rate for the most recent three-year period does not exceed the applicable statistical requirements for its business category. (2) The information required pursuant to this subdivision shall be verified under oath by the construction manager and its members in the manner in which civil pleadings in civil actions are verified. Information that is not a public record pursuant to the California Public Records Act (Division 10 (commencing with Section 7920.000) of Title 1 of the Government Code) shall not be open to public inspection. (b) For each RFQ, the district shall generate a final list of qualified persons or firms that participated in the RFQ prior to entering into negotiations on the contract for which the RFQ applies. (c) (1) For each contract included in the RFQ, the district shall enter into negotiations for the contract with the highest qualified person or firm on the final list for that contract. However, if the RFQ is for multiple contracts and specifies that all of the multiple contracts will be awarded to a single construction manager, there may be a single negotiation for all the multiple contracts. The negotiations shall include consideration of compensation and other contract terms that the district determines to be fair and reasonable to the district. In making this decision, the district shall take into account the estimated value, the scope, the complexity, and the nature of the professional services or construction services to be rendered. If the district is not able to negotiate a satisfactory contract with the highest qualified person or firm on the final list regarding compensation and on other contract terms the district determines to be fair and reasonable, the district shall formally terminate negotiations with that person or firm. The district may undertake negotiations with the next most qualified person or firm on the final list in sequence until an agreement is reached or a determination is made to reject all persons or firms on the final list. (2) If a contract for construction services is entered into pursuant to this section and includes preconstruction services by the construction manager, the district shall enter into a written contract with the construction manager for preconstruction services under which contract the district shall pay the construction manager a fee for preconstruction services in an amount agreed upon by the district and the construction manager. The preconstruction services contract may include fees for services to be performed during the contract period, provided, however, that the district shall not request or obtain a fixed price or a guaranteed maximum price for the construction contract from the construction manager or enter into a construction contract with the construction manager until after the district has entered into a preconstruction services contract. A preconstruction services contract shall provide for the subsequent negotiation for construction of all or any discrete phase or phases of the project. (3) A contract for construction services shall be awarded after the plans have been sufficiently developed and either a fixed price or a guaranteed maximum price has been successfully negotiated. In the event that a fixed price or a guaranteed maximum price is not negotiated, the district shall not award the contract for construction services. (4) The district is not required to award the construction services contract. (5) Construction shall not commence on any phase, package, or element until the district and a construction manager agree in writing on either a fixed price that the district will pay for the construction to be commenced or a guaranteed maximum price for the construction to be commenced and a construction schedule for the project. (d) All subcontractors bidding on contracts pursuant to this article shall be afforded the protections contained in Chapter 4 (commencing with Section 4100) of Part 1. The construction manager shall do all of the following: (1) Provide public notice of the availability of work to be subcontracted in accordance with the publication requirements applicable to the competitive bidding process of the district. (2) Provide a fixed date and time on which the subcontracted work will be awarded in accordance with the procedure established pursuant to this article. (3) Comply with any subcontracting procedures adopted by the district that were included in the district’s RFQ. If the district has adopted procedures to prequalify public works contractors, the construction manager may use the procedures to prequalify subcontractors. (e) (1) The district shall submit to the relevant committees of the Legislature, on or before January 1, 2027, a report that describes each Construction Manager/General Contractor project approved under this article. (2) The report shall provide relevant data on each project that includes, but is not limited to, all of the following: (A) The cost of the project. (B) The state of completion for the project. (C) The estimated time of completion for the project. (D) A comprehensive assessment of the effectiveness of the Construction Manager/General Contractor project delivery method relative to project cost and time savings. (3) The report shall be submitted in compliance with Section 9795 of the Government Code and may be combined with the report required pursuant to Section 21568.4.

(a) Any improvement or unit of work when the cost according to the estimate of the engineer will exceed five thousand dollars ($5,000), shall be done by contract and shall be let to the lowest responsible bidder or bidders in the manner provided in this article. The board shall first determine whether the contract shall be let as a single unit or shall be divided into severable parts, or both, according to the best interests of the district. The board shall call for bids and advertise the call by three insertions in a daily newspaper of general circulation or by two insertions in a weekly newspaper of general circulation printed in the district inviting sealed proposals for the construction or performance of the improvement or work before any contract is made.

(b) In the event no proposals are received pursuant to advertisement, or the estimated cost of the work does not exceed five thousand dollars ($5,000), or the work consists of channel protection, maintenance work, or emergency work, the board of supervisors may, without advertising for bids, have the work done by employees of the district, by day labor, under the direction of the board, by contract, or by any combination of those methods. In case of an emergency, if notice for bids to let contracts will not be given, the board shall comply with Chapter 2.5 (commencing with Section 22050). (c) The district may acquire in the open market without advertising for bids, materials, equipment, and supplies for use in any work or for any other purpose; provided, however, that materials and supplies for use in any new construction work or improvement, except work referred to in subdivision (b), may not be purchased if the cost exceeds five thousand dollars ($5,000), without advertising for bids and awarding the contract to the lowest responsible bidder.

    The Legislature states findings about Iran and says it intends to implement federal authority to prohibit contracts with persons engaged in investment activities in Iran’s energy sector on a statewide basis.

    ## Public Contract Code - PCC ## DIVISION 2. GENERAL PROVISIONS [1100 - 22355] ( Division 2 enacted by Stats. 1981, Ch. 306. ) ## PART 1. ADMINISTRATIVE PROVISIONS [1100 - 9204] ( Heading of Part 1 added by Stats. 1982, Ch. 1120, Sec. 2. ) ## CHAPTER 2.7. Iran Contracting Act of 2010 [2200 - 2208] ( Chapter 2.7 added by Stats. 2010, Ch. 573, Sec. 1. ) ## 2201. The Legislature hereby finds and declares all of the following: (a) In imposing United States sanctions on Iran, Congress and the President have determined that the illicit nuclear activities of the Government of Iran, combined with its development of unconventional weapons and ballistic missiles, and its support of international terrorism, represent a serious threat to the security of the United States, Israel, and other United States allies in Europe, the Middle East, and around the world. (b) On September 9, 2009, it was reported that American intelligence agencies have concluded that Iran has already created enough nuclear fuel to develop a nuclear weapon, and United States Ambassador to the International Atomic Energy Agency Glyn Davies declared that Iran had achieved “possible breakout capacity.” (c) On September 21, 2009, Iran sent a letter to the International Atomic Energy Agency acknowledging that it is considering a previously undeclared “new pilot fuel enrichment plan.” (d) On Sept. 25, 2009, President Barack H. Obama, joined by Prime Minister Gordon Brown of Britain and President Nicolas Sarkozy of France, stated that the secret plant “represents a direct challenge to the basic foundation of the nonproliferation regime” and “deepens a growing concern that Iran is refusing to live up to those international responsibilities, including specifically revealing all nuclear-related activities. As the international community knows, this is not the first time that Iran has concealed information about its nuclear program.” (e) The International Atomic Energy Agency has repeatedly called attention to Iran’s unlawful nuclear activities, and, as a result, the United Nations Security Council has adopted a range of sanctions designed to encourage the Government of Iran to cease those activities and comply with its obligations under the Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons (commonly known as the “Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty”). (f) On July 1, 2010, President Barack Obama signed into law H.R. 2194, the “Comprehensive Iran Sanctions, Accountability, and Divestment Act of 2010” (Public Law 111-195), which expressly authorizes states and local governments to prevent investment in, including prohibiting entry into or renewing contracts with, companies operating in Iran’s energy sector with investments that have the result of directly or indirectly supporting the efforts of the Government of Iran to achieve nuclear weapons capability. (g) On October 7, 2008, then-Senator Obama stated, “Iran right now imports gasoline, even though it’s an oil producer, because its oil infrastructure has broken down. If we can prevent them from importing the gasoline that they need and the refined petroleum products, that starts changing their cost-benefit analysis. That starts putting the squeeze on them.” (h) The serious and urgent nature of the threat from Iran demands that states, local governments, educational institutions, and private institutions work together with the federal government and American allies to do everything possible diplomatically, politically, and economically to prevent Iran from acquiring a nuclear weapons capability. (i) There are moral and reputational reasons for this state and local governments to not engage in business with foreign companies that have business activities benefiting foreign states, such as Iran, that commit egregious violations of human rights, proliferate nuclear weapons capabilities, and support terrorism. (j) It is the responsibility of the state to decide how, where, and by whom its financial resources should be invested. It also is the prerogative of the state to not invest in, or do business with, companies whose investments with Iran place those companies at risk from the impact of economic sanctions imposed upon the Government of Iran for sponsoring terrorism, committing egregious violations of human rights, and engaging in illicit nuclear weapons development. (k) The human rights situation in Iran has steadily deteriorated in 2009, as punctuated by transparently fraudulent elections and the brutal repression and murder, arbitrary arrests, and show trials of peaceful dissidents. (l) During the postelection protests in June 2009, the Iranian government imposed widespread and unjustifiable restrictions on telecommunications services, denying the citizens of Iran their rights and liberties to free speech. (m) On October 14, 2007, Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger stated his intention to support “efforts to further prevent terrorism” when signing Assembly Bill 221, which prohibits the state’s pension funds from investing in companies with active business in Iran. (n) This state currently honors contracts with foreign companies that may be at financial risk due to business ties with foreign states, such as Iran, that are involved in the proliferation of weapons of mass destruction, commit human rights violations, and support terrorism. (o) The concerns of the State of California regarding Iran are strictly the result of the actions of the Government of Iran. (p) The people of the State of California declare all of the following: (1) We have feelings of friendship for the people of Iran. (2) We regret that developments in recent decades have created impediments to that friendship. (3) We hold the people of Iran, their culture, and their ancient and rich history in the highest esteem. (q) In order to effectively address the need for the governments of this state to respond to the policies of Iran in a uniform fashion, prohibiting contracts with persons engaged in investment activities in the energy sector of Iran must be accomplished on a statewide basis, and, therefore, the subject is a matter of statewide concern rather than a municipal affair. (r) It is the intent of the Legislature to implement the authority granted under Section 202 of the Comprehensive Iran Sanctions, Accountability, and Divestment Act of 2010 (Public Law 111-195). (Added by Stats. 2010, Ch. 573, Sec. 1. (AB 1650) Effective January 1, 2011. Conditionally inoperative as prescribed by Stats. 2010, Ch. 573, Sec. 2.)
