  9        67-2349.  PREFERENCE  FOR IDAHO SUPPLIERS AND RECYCLED PAPER AND MOTOR OIL
 10    PRODUCTS FOR PURCHASES. (1)  To the extent permitted by federal laws and regu-
 11    lations, whenever the state of Idaho, or any department, division,  bureau  or
 12    agency  thereof,  or  any  city, county, school district, irrigation district,

 15    for  purchase  of  any  materials, supplies, services or equipment, the bidder
 16    domiciled outside the boundaries of Idaho shall be required, in  order  to  be
 17    successful,  to submit a bid the same percent less than the lowest bid submit-
 18    ted by a responsible bidder domiciled in Idaho as would be required  for  such
 19    an  Idaho  domiciled bidder to succeed over the bidder domiciled outside Idaho
 20    on a like contract being let in his domiciliary state.
 21        For the purposes of this section, any bidder domiciled outside the  bound-
 22    aries  of  the  state of Idaho may be considered as an Idaho domiciled bidder,
 23    provided that there exists for a period of one (1) year preceding the date  of
 24    the bid a significant Idaho economic presence as defined herein. A significant
 25    economic presence shall consist of the following:
 26        (a)  That  the  bidder  maintain  in Idaho fully staffed offices, or fully
 27        staffed sales offices or divisions, or fully  staffed  sales  outlets,  or
 28        manufacturing  facilities,  or warehouses or other necessary related prop-
 29        erty; and
 30        (b)  If a corporation be registered and licensed to  do  business  in  the
 31        state of Idaho with the office of the secretary of state.
 32        (2)  In  the evaluation of paper product bids, those items that meet recy-
 33    cled content standards may be given not more than a five percent (5%) purchas-
 34    ing preference. As such, those qualifying paper products may be considered  to
 35    cost five percent (5%) less when choosing the lowest responsible bidder.
 36        (3)  In  the  evaluation  of motor oil product bids, those items that meet
 37    recycled motor oil standards may be given not more than a  five  percent  (5%)
 38    purchasing  preference.  As  such,  those qualifying motor oil products may be
 39    considered to cost five percent (5%) less when choosing the lowest responsible
 40    bidder.
                                                                        
 41        SECTION 2.  That Section 67-5717, Idaho Code, be, and the same  is  hereby
 42    amended to read as follows:
                                                                        
                                       2

                       STATEMENT OF PURPOSE
                             RS 12530
This legislation amends Section 67-5717 and Section 67-2349 of
the Idaho Code to allow a 5% purchasing preferences for recycled
oil products.
                          FISCAL IMPACT

As this is an optional program, there will be no impact for
agencies that choose not to implement the purchasing preference. 
For those that do, the increase in short term costs to Central
Purchasing could be 5% or less.  Because many oil products are
currently using some recycled content already, the anticipated
impact could be even less.  This bill, in the long run can reduce
overall costs as well as support the state's recycling industry.
