DC isn't a separate sovereign state (in the way that the Vatican is) but 
neither is it one of the normal 50 "United" States. But for the purposes 
of a contract such as this it's simplest to regard it as equivalent to 
an additional State. In other words, if you are based there, then it's 
perfectly "ok", you might as well be in Virginia.
