§ 52:32-31.

If the contracting agency determines that the acceptance of the lowest responsible

bid on a disabled veterans’ business set-aside contract will result either in the

payment of an unreasonable price or in a contract otherwise unacceptable pursuant

to the statutes and rules governing purchases by that agency, the contracting agency

shall reject all bids and withdraw the designation of the set-aside contract. Bidders shall be notified of the set-aside cancellation, the reasons for the rejection

and the State's intent to resolicit bids on an unrestricted basis. The canceled solicitation shall not be counted as a set-aside for the purpose of

attaining established set-aside goals. Except in cases of emergency, prior to the final award of the contract, the contracting

agency shall provide an opportunity for a hearing on the reasons for the rejection

of the set-aside designation. This hearing shall not be considered a contested case under the “Administrative

Procedure Act,” P.L.1968, c. 410 ( C.52:14B-1 et seq. ).
