Title: Telecommunications Equipment Contract | |
Abstract: In order to facilitate the programmatic interest of the Rural Electrification Act that loans made or guaranteed by the agency are adequately secured, the agency has established certain standardized forms for materials, equipment, and construction of electric and telecommunications systems. The use of standard forms, construction contracts, and procurement procedures helps to assure that appropriate standards and specifications are maintained by the borrower; the Agency's loan security is not adversely affected; and the loan and loan guarantee funds are used effectively and for the intended purpose. The Rural Utilities Service proposes to issue a new equipment contract, RUS Form 395, for use by telecommunications program borrowers. The new contract will reflect present business and utilities practices, as well as changes in technology, services, and equipment. | |
