GLOSSARY ENTRY (DERIVED FROM QUESTION BELOW)
Hebrew term or phrase:מצוי
English translation:(conversant and) familiar with

Bus/Financial - Law: Contract(s) / Local Government
Hebrew term or phrase: מצוי
From a leasing agreement;

The Lessee, and he alone, shall be responsible for receiving the permits and licenses required by law for managing his business in the Rented Object and for complying with them during the entire rental period, all on his account and under his responsibility.

The Lessee declares that he is בקיא ומצוי
בעסק that he intends managing in the Rented Object and with the entire subject of the required licensing and permits ....

"conversant with" seems okay as its used twice. "to be found at" doesn't jibe.

Explanation:
Both conversant and familiar mean בקי so it's one and the same.
מצוי means "knows the way around" (or knows about the subject), therefore knowldgeable. בקי will be "familiar with"
