Food and lodging arrangements are the contractor’s responsibility. Claims for food/lodging expenses shall be supported by paid receipts to the maximum extent possible. In the event paid receipts cannot be furnished, other documentation must be submitted.

4.4.6. Economic Price Adjustment based on Actual Cost of Fuel – Airlift: In order to protect the contractor and the government from significant market fluctuations in the price of fuel, an adjustment will be made based on actual costs incurred.

4.4.6.1 Economic price adjustment (EPA) is limited to changes in the contractor’s cost for fuel only.

4.4.6.2 Allowable fuel adjustments will be made upward or downward only if the price of fuel varies by more than one cent per gallon from the following pegged rate for fuel:

FUEL TYPE PEGGED RATE (Base Price)

JP-8 $2.37

JET-A $2.90

JET-A-1 $2.90

Av Gas 100LL $5.18

4.4.6.3 When the average price per gallon paid by the contractor is greater than the established base price indicated above, the government will reimburse the contractor the difference between the price paid and the established base price.

4.4.6.4 When the average price per gallon paid by the contractor is below the established base price indicated above, the contractor will reimburse the government the difference between the price paid and the established base price. Under these circumstances, the contracting officer will issue a demand letter and funds will be reimbursed as directed.

4.4.6.5. Reporting requirements for adjustments are as stated in the contract, but no later than 30 days after month’s end.

4.4.6.6. The actual average cost per gallon under this EPA clause shall be rounded to four decimal positions (e.g., $2.3699).

4.4.6.7. For the contracting officer to consider any request for adjustment, the contractor shall submit data that clearly supports any request for adjustment. At a minimum, the contractor shall submit: 1) total mileage flown in performance of the contract; 2) fuel costs associated with that performance; and 3) associated financial data or receipts, as required by the contract.

4.4.6.8 Fuel adjustments will be made using the CLIN titled Fuel EPA Reimbursable. The following steps will be taken to determine the adjustment:

4.4.7 The contractor’s fuel burn rate, established in the List of Aircraft in the contract, is multiplied by the total mileage flown in performance of the contract. In the case of a substitute aircraft not listed in the schedule, the lower burn rate of the substitute aircraft or the aircraft normally used in performance of the contract shall be used.

4.4.8 The product is then multiplied by the difference between the average price per gallon paid and the established base price in the contract (also known as the variance).

Example:

Miles flown in support of the contract = 23,654

Burn rate for aircraft type (in schedule) = 4.21 gallons per mile

Base price of fuel established in the contract = $2.50

Actual average cost per gallon = $2.6308

Calculation:

Miles * Burn Rate * EPA Price Variance = Adjustment

23,654 * 4.21 = 99,583.34* $0.1308 = $13,025.50

4.5 AIR CARRIER INSURANCE REQUIREMENTS

4.5.1 Prior to performance of any services hereunder, the contractor shall, at its own expense procure and maintain during the entire performance period of this contract, with a financially and legally responsible insurance company, at least minimum insurance coverage as required by

4.9 SECURITY: Physical, Personnel, Information, Antiterrorism/Force Protection and

Industrial Security

4.9.1 General Security Information:

The majority of daily work associated with this PWS is at the UNCLASSIFIED level; however contractor personnel may have access to classified areas and equipment which require SECRET eligibility and access posted in the Joint Personnel Adjudications System (JPAS). In addition all contractor personnel involved in the actual recovery and transportation of classified drones will have personnel clearances at the SECRET level. Furthermore, contractor personnel with access to Information Assurance (IA) administrative privileges and/or who will monitor Department of

Defense IT systems or software as designated by DOD 8500.1/5200.2-R may be rated at the various levels listed in paragraph 4.8.2 below. The stipulation of the numbers and what IT/ADP levels the contractors will have is directed by the COR or the CO before the start of the contract.

The contractor shall not divulge any financial, planning, programming, or budgeting information without the express consent of the Government as outlined in Operational Security (OPSEC) and

Information Security regulations. The contractor shall comply with all appropriate provisions of applicable security regulations. Specific security requirements are identified in the DD Form

254, DOD Contract Security Classification Specification. A completed/signed DD Form 254 is attached to the contract.

4.9.2 Personnel Security Requirements:

The contractor’s, subcontractors, and/or partner’s personnel performing services under this contract, shall be citizens of the United States of America. Personnel who are dual citizens must be identified to the COR and must obtain a final security clearance before reporting to perform services under this contract. Dual citizens will not be given access to classified information/areas on the basis of an interim clearance. The contractor, subcontractor(s), and/or partner(s) shall possess the capability to articulate well, speak and write fluently in the English

Language, and comprehend the English Language. Overall, all contractor personnel shall possess the appropriate personnel security investigation for the position occupied. Contractor personnel shall be required to have a background investigation that corresponds with the sensitivity level of the tasks to be performed.

The following guidance will be followed when determining background investigation and clearance levels for this contract depending on requirements. No personnel will require

IT/ADP/Critical Sensitive levels in support of this requirement.

IT-II/ADP-II/Non-Critical Sensitive Positions

Those positions in which the incumbent is responsible for the direction, planning, design, operation, or maintenance of a computer system, and whose work is technically reviewed by a higher authority of the ADP-I category to ensure the integrity of the system.

(IT-II/ADP-II/Non-Critical Sensitive) Background Investigation Requirements:

Positions designated by the Government at the Non-Critical Sensitive/ADP-II/IT-II rating require a National Agency Check with Local Credit (NACLC) (or acceptable periodic reinvestigation) favorably adjudicated (a favorable adjudication grants eligibility at the SECRET level as prescribed by DOD 5200.2-R). The IT-II/ADP-II requirement mandates the contractor have a minimum FCL at the SECRET (or higher) level due to investigation submissions as directed in

DOD 5220.22-M, DOD 5200.1-R and JPAS.

IT III/ADP III/Non-Sensitive Positions

All other positions involved in computer activities and Common Access Card / PIV Card issuance. No clearance is granted for classified access and only a Position of Trust is awarded and posted in the Joint Personnel Adjudication System (JPAS).

(IT-III/ADP-III/Non-Sensitive) Background Investigation Requirements:

Positions designated by the Government at the Non-Sensitive/ADP-III/IT-III rating require a

National Agency Check with Inquiries (NACI) (or acceptable investigation/reinvestigation) favorably adjudicated (a favorable adjudication issues a Position of Trust determination as prescribed by DOD 5200.2-R and DOD DTM 08-003 (Dated Dec 08). Favorable NACI or equivalent investigation results must be posted in JPAS before a Common Access Card (CAC) or

NIPRNET access will be granted. To obtain interim CAC/NIPRNET access, NACI investigations will be opened with fingerprint, name and criminal records checks returned favorably before the credentials (CAC and NIPRNET) are issued. NACI submissions will be completed on the Standard Form (SF) 85P and submitted with fingerprint cards (FP 258) to

USTRANSCOM Force Protection, Security Services Center (SSC) for processing. No classified access will be granted based on the NACI investigation.

NOTE: The above requirements for IT-III/ADP-III/Non-Sensitive Positions are for access to unclassified systems only. Contractors who require access to classified systems or areas must have interim or final adjudication of background investigations at the Critical or Non-Critical

Sensitive levels.

The contractor needs to understand and be aware that USTRANSCOM will only process

NACI/Position of Trust investigations. These background investigations are not the DoD prescribed personnel security investigations for classified access. It is incumbent upon the contractor to have the appropriate investigations completed upon start of the contract.

4.9.3 Facilities Clearance Level (FCL):

The contractor must have a valid Secret FCL at time of request for proposal. FCL procedures and security guidelines for adjudicative requirements are outlined in DoD 5220.22-M Operating

Manual. FCLs and Interim FCLs must be awarded by the Defense Counterintelligence and

Security Agency (DCSA) Facility Clearance Branch.

4.9.4 Personnel and Facilities Clearance Validation:

Upon contract award, the contactor shall submit the names of contractor personnel to the

USTRANSCOM Mission Assurance Division (TCJ34) Industrial Security Manager for vetting through JPAS to ensure investigative and clearance requirements have been satisfied. This shall be completed before the COR/Trusted Agent (TA) accesses the DoD Trusted Associate

Sponsorship System (TASS) to create and approval a CAC application. If a contractor’s employee does not have the required investigative or security clearance level based on the

Government’s determination, the contractor’s employee will be denied the ability to work in support of this contract.4.8.5 Additional Security Conditions:

Upon completion of this contract, the contractor’s personnel shall surrender all Government supplies, materials and equipment to the COR. Any assigned contractor personnel who possess a security badge shall turn in those badges to the SSC in person during out-processing. Contractor personnel shall out-process on the last day of the contract or upon termination or reassignment from duties under this contract.

4.9.6 The Government shall ensure the roles/privileges assigned to contractor personnel on the

Government computing platforms are limited to the roles/privileges essential to that individual’s performance of his/her assignments. The Government may limit or revoke these roles or privileges for any reason.

4.9.7 If the Government notifies the contractor that the employment or the continued employment of any contractor personnel is prejudicial to the interests of or which endangers the security of the United States of America (USA), that employee shall be removed and barred from the worksite. Matters prejudicial to the interests of or which endangers the security of the USA include, but are not limited to, security deviations/incidents. This also includes credible derogatory information uncovered in background investigations and any information received through law enforcement channels. In such cases the contractor shall make any changes necessary in the appointment(s) of personnel at no cost to the Government.

4.9.8 No antiterrorism (AT) measures are required except compliance with those in force at the military installation the contractor employees may access.

4.9.9 Contractor employees with Transportation Worker Identification Credentials (TWIC) issued by the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) do not satisfy the DoD requirement for a background investigation for accessing classified information.
