(2) If funds allotted are considered by the Contractor to be inadequate to cover the work to be performed until that date, or an agreed date substituted for it, the Contractor shall notify the Contracting Officer in writing when within the next 60 days the work will reach a point at which, if the contract is terminated pursuant to the Termination for Convenience of the Government clause of this contract, the total amount payable by the Government (including amounts payable for subcontracts and settlement costs) pursuant to paragraphs

(f) and (g) of that clause will approximate 75 percent of the total amount then allotted to the contract.

The provisions of paragraphs (b) and (c) of this clause shall apply to these additional allotted funds and the substituted date pertaining to them, and the contract shall be modified accordingly.

(e) If, solely by reason of the Government’s failure to allot additional funds in amounts sufficient for the timely performance of this contract, the Contractor incurs additional costs or is delayed in the performance of the work under this contract, and if additional funds are allotted, an equitable adjustment shall be made in the price or prices (including appropriate target, billing, and ceiling prices where applicable) of the items to be delivered, or in the time of delivery, or both.

(d) For the period that NASA facilities were not accessible to contractor employees, the Contracting Officer may—

(1) Adjust the contract performance or delivery schedule for a period equivalent to the period the NASA facility was not accessible;

(2) Forego the work;

(3) Reschedule the work by mutual agreement of the parties; or

(4) Consider properly documented requests for equitable adjustment, claim, or any other remedy pursuant to the terms and conditions of the contract.

(e) Notification procedures of a NASA facility closure, including contractor denial of access, as follows:

(1) The contractor shall be responsible for monitoring the local radio, television stations, NASA Web sites, other communications channels, for example Contracting Officer notification, for announcement of a NASA facility closure to include denial of access to the NASA facility. The contractor shall be responsible for notification of its employees of the NASA facility closure to include denial of access to the NASA facility. The dismissal of NASA employees in accordance with statute and regulations providing for such dismissals shall not, in itself, equate to a NASA facility closure in which contractor employees are denied access. Moreover, the leave status of NASA employees shall not be conveyed or imputed to contractor personnel. Accordingly, unless a NASA facility is closed and the contractor is denied access to the facility, the contractor shall continue performance in accordance with the contract.

(2) NASA’s Emergency Notification System (ENS). ENS is a NASA-wide Emergency Notification and Accountability System that provides NASA the ability to send messages, both Agency-related and/or Center-related, in the event of an emergency or emerging situation at a NASA facility. Notification is provided via multiple communication devices, e.g. Email, text, cellular, and home/office numbers. The ENS provides the capability to respond to notifications and provide the safety status. Contractor employees may register for these notifications at the ENS Web site:

MSFC 52.223-90 ASBESTOS MATERIAL (SEPT 2020)

During performance of this contract, Contractor personnel performing work in MSFC buildings may come in contact with materials containing asbestos. MSFC Buildings 4200 and 4663 are of special concern since they are known to contain a sprayed on fire insulation on or above the ceiling, usually located on the metal or concrete structure of the buildings. Examples of asbestos- containing material are floor tile, pipe and lagging insulation, exterior siding, roofing felt, and many other building materials. To facilitate communication, MSFC has established a website where the inventory of asbestos-containing material, their condition and approximate location are provided. The URL for this website is http://eeoh-portal.ndc.nasa.gov/asbestos. If the Contractor is unable to access this URL, they may contact the Contracting Officer or MSFC’s

Environmental Engineering and Occupational Health (EEOH) Office (organization code AS10) for assistance. Prior to performing tasks which may disturb building material containing asbestos or suspected asbestos, the Contractor shall notify MSFC’s EEOH Office for assistance. The Contractor shall also be responsible for ensuring that all Contractor personnel working onsite are made aware of and comply with the requirements of this clause.
