IN ADDITION, A CONFLICT OF INTEREST MAY ALSO EXIST WHEN THE INTERESTS OR CONCERNS OF AN EMPLOYEE, OR SUCH EMPLOYEE'S IMMEDIATE FAMILY, OR ANY PARTY, GROUP OR ORGANIZATION TO WHICH SUCH PERSON HAS ALLEGIANCE, MAY BE SEEN AS COMPETING WITH THE INTERESTS OR CONCERNS OF THE AGENCY. EACH EMPLOYEE HAS A DUTY TO DISCLOSE TO THE PRESIDENT THE MATERIAL FACTS OF ANY PROPOSED TRANSACTION OF THE AGENCY IN WHICH SUCH PERSON HAS ANY ACTUAL OR POTENTIAL CONFLICT OF INTEREST. THE REQUIRED DISCLOSURE MUST BE MADE PRIOR TO ANY CONSIDERATION OF SUCH PROPOSED TRANSACTION BY THE AGENCY.
