3. REQUIREMENTS

3.1 General. The Contractor must conform to all requirements specified in SFLC Std Spec 0000 and in this item, as applicable, during the performance of this availability. The requirements in this WI applies to all work under the scope of this contract, whether explicitly stated in all following work items or not, and to all other work subsequently authorized by changes, modifications, or extensions to the contract.

3.1.1 The Contractor must conform to all requirements specified in SFLC Std Spec 5550 and in the Fire Protection and Response work item, as applicable, during the performance of this availability.

3.1.1.1 Fire Safety Plan submission. The Contractor must submit a copy of the CFR 1915, Subpart P, Fire Safety Plan with the Contractor’s bid when work will be conducted in a Contractor–owned facility. Include any MOA(s) with local firefighting facilities.

3.1.1.2 Fire Plan submission. The Contractor must submit a copy of the developed availability specific fire plan as requested in the Fire Protection and Response work item, with the Contractor’s bid.

NOTE

NAVSEA drawings listed will be available FOR INSPECTION ONLY from the Coast Guard Port Engineer post-award. SFLC will not redistribute NAVSEA documents.

Contractors can apply to NAVSEA headquarters directly for copies.

3.1.1.3 SFLC-PBPL Availabilities (87 WPB, 110 WPB, & 154 WPC). The Contractor must conform to SFLC Std Spec 5550 with the following amendments and supplements:

• For contracts executed at a Contractor’s facility, submit (pre-award) the facility’s Fire Safety Plan document described in 29 CFR 1915.502 – “Fire Safety Plan”. For planning assume that Coast Guard personnel will not be available to fight a fire.

• For all contracts at all facilities, submit the following information pre-award, taking into consideration how the maintenance/repairs specified in the work items will affect uninterrupted operation of the subject systems; make all necessary amendments to this submission after discussions with the COR at the arrival conference and during contract execution as emerging conditions warrant:

o Describe all anticipated needs for fire detection/alarm, fire-fighting, and shipboard lighting and communication systems supplementation (see bulleted paragraphs below) and a description of the proposed remedies/solutions (include pricing for maintaining capability in pre-award quote).

o Prior to performing weld repairs (or potentially the entire availability), the Coast Guard will be securing and electrically isolating the installed fire alarm system, in conjunction with performing other measures that will protect installed electronic systems that could be damaged by weld repairs; therefore the vessel’s installed fire alarm/detection system will potentially not be available during the performance period.

Provide a supplemental temporary fire-alarm system while the installed system is down. Monitor that system for the duration of its installation.

o Describe how any required temporary/supplemental fire detection/alarm systems will notify fire responders.

o Describe all anticipated breaches of the cutter’s Fire Protection Boundaries and the proposed temporary solutions that will minimize impact on the Fire Protection Boundary’s proper function (e.g. removal of

3 (Draft-0) cables/hoses/etc. at the end of work day or installation of quick disconnects, installation of temporary fire curtains, etc.).

• Whenever maintenance/repairs described in work items or Change Requests necessitate securing, or making inoperable, all or part of the vessel’s fire detection or fire alarm system, submit a proposal to the COR/KO describing an equivalent method(s) for temporarily maintaining all lost functionality of the system(s). Select the most economical option(s) available (i.e. for extended loss of service of the entire system the temporary fire detections/alarm system described in SFLC Std Spec 5550 may be the best option, for shorter durations temporary watch standers may be more economical, etc.). After the COR has agreed to the proposal, maintain the capability of these systems for the duration of the contract to the greatest practicable extent.

• Whenever maintenance/repairs described in work items or Change Requests necessitate securing, or making inoperable, all or part of the vessel’s firefighting (e.g. fire main system, P100 and other dewatering systems, halon systems, portable fire extinguishers, etc.), lighting, and communications systems, submit a proposal to the COR/KO describing equivalent method(s) for temporarily maintaining all lost functionality of the system(s).

Select the most economical option(s) available. After the COR has agreed to the proposal, maintain fire detection/alarm/fighting and lighting/communications capability for the duration of the contract to the greatest practicable extent.

• All Fire Protection Boundaries must be left intact and functional at all times to the greatest practicable extent.

Notify the COR in writing whenever a breached Fire Protection Boundary will be left unattended outside of normal working hours (e.g. a door/hatch is made un-closable/un-securable due to repair work, an access cut is made into deck/bhd that is part of a Fire Protection Boundary, etc.). When a Fire Protection Boundary must be breached to facilitate contract work, minimize the impact using industry-standard methods (e.g. fire curtains, quick-disconnect fittings, etc.)

A-Team: Determine whether the Contractor or the Coast Guard will provide fire watches; then select the applicable paragraph 3.2 (fire watch, fire extinguishers, or the combination of both requirements), and delete the others. Under normal circumstances, for all cutters, fire watch personnel for contract work will be provided by ship's force with the contractor providing fire extinguishers. For situations involving a small cutter crew (such as WLIC and WLR tenders) and large amounts of hot work or multiple shift work, the A-team may consider the requirement for contractor provided fire watch personnel or a combination of both fire watch and fire extinguishers.

3.2 Contractor-provided fire extinguishers. The Contractor must provide portable fire extinguishers.

3.2 Fire watch requirements. The Contractor must refer to 3.3.1.3 (Fire watch requirements) of SFLC Std Spec 0000, in accomplishing the following task:

Provide portable fire extinguishers for Coast Guard fire watch personnel. Coast Guard fire watch is in lieu of contractor personnel during the hours of 0800-1600, Monday through Friday, and limited to two Coast Guard fire watch personnel.

Provide fire watch personnel and fire extinguishers for the duration of the availability period, during and beyond noted Coast Guard fire watch support.

3.3.2 Coating colors and system color schemes. The Contractor must obtain a written KO authorization to deviate from any coatings required in SFLC Std Spec 6310 Appendix C before work.

3.3.3 In-process quality control measures. The Contractor must abide by all the safety, preservation, and quality control requirements specified in SFLC Std Spec 0000, paragraph 3.2.4.2 (In-process QC measures for “critical-coated surfaces”).

3.3.3.1 Quality control requirements. The Contractor must abide by the following when performing preservation related inspections. The following measurements must be randomly spaced throughout for the purposes of providing a representation of the entire prepared or coated surface.

3.3.3.1.1 Surface profile measurements. One surface profile measurement must be taken for every 200 square feet for the first 1000 square feet; for each additional 500 square feet or less, one profile measurement must be taken.

Profile measurements must be taken in accordance with SFLC Std Spec 6310, paragraph 3.1.8.3 (Surface profile measurements). A “measurement” for surface profile is defined as follows:

ASTM D4417, Method B: One profile measurement is the average (mean) of 10 individual readings.

ASTM D4417, Method C: One profile measurement is the average (mean) of 2 individual readings.

3.3.3.1.2 Soluble salt conductivity measurements. 5 conductivity measurements must be taken every 1000 square feet. For submerged (immersed) applications conductivity measurements must not exceed 30 microsiemens/cm.

For non-submerged (non-immersed) applications conductivity measurements must not exceed 70 microsiemens/cm. If a conductivity check fails, clean the surface in accordance with SFLC Std Spec 6310, paragraph 3.1.8.5 (Soluble salt removal).

3.3.3.1.3 Coating thickness measurements. Three area measurements must be taken for the first 1000 square feet;

for each additional 1000 square feet, perform an additional area measurement. A “measurement” for coating thickness is defined as follows:

SSPC-PA 2 defines an area measurement as 5 separate spot measurements randomly spaced throughout a 100 square foot area.

SSPC-PA 2 defines a spot measurement as 3 gage readings and each new gage reading the probe must be moved to a new location within a 1.5-inch diameter circle defining the spot.

“3.2.5.4 When the critical path extends beyond or encroaches upon the final delivery date, provide a resource constraint and scheduling evaluation of the critical path before any request for extension will be entertained.

Submit the resource constraint and scheduling evaluation via a CFR.

NOTE

The intent of the resource constraint and scheduling evaluation is to identify the resources necessary to ‘crash’ the critical path or make adjustments to the production schedule to meet the delivery date in lieu of a project extension.”

3.7.4.7 Std Spec 0000, General Requirements, page 4, paragraph 1.3 Acronyms and term definitions, “Paint Containing Lead” remove lead content percent of “0.06 percent by weight (0.12 mg/cm2, or 600 ppm)” and replace with “0.009 percent by weight (0.018 mg/cm2, or 90 ppm)”

3.7.5 SFLC Std Spec 6310, Requirements For Preservation Of Ship Structures, page 10, add “3.1.6.5 Preconstruction Primers. Also known as shop primers, preconstruction primers are used as a temporary coating to protect steel from corrosion during welding, storage, and fabrication. Preconstruction primers must be removed prior to applying the permanent coating system on all critical coated surfaces. Preconstruction primers may be left in place in other interior areas (such as machinery spaces, habitability spaces, etc.) if they are intact, uncontaminated, and compatible with the overcoating system.”

3.7.5.1 Std Spec 6310, Appendix B, page B12 , the formatting for of Notes 17-19 change and add as per the following:

SFLC Std Spec 6310, Cutter And Boat Interior Painting Systems, Appendix B12, Note 17, delete sentence, “Persistent corrosion in a particular area of an aluminum bilge may dictate the need for a protective High Build Epoxy coating to be applied to that local area.”

SFLC Std Spec 6310, Cutter And Boat Interior Painting Systems, Appendix B12, Note 18, replace entire note with “Persistent corrosion in a particular area of an aluminum bilge may dictate the need for a protective High Build Epoxy coating to be applied to that local area. “

SFLC Std Spec 6310, Cutter And Boat Interior Painting Systems, Appendix B12, Note 19, replace entire note with “Painting plastic surfaces is highly discouraged, but after it is done once, it must be maintained.”

SFLC Std Spec 6310, Cutter And Boat Interior Painting Systems, Appendix B12, Add Note “20. For aluminum surfaces, remove all oil, grease, dirt, metal oxides (corrosion products) and other foreign material by cleaning per SSPC-SP 1 prior to blast cleaning and following blast cleaning immediately prior to coating. The end result of abrasive blasting will be a surface cleanliness similar to that of SSPC-SP 10 for steel with all coating removed.

NOTES

1. Flow rates represent minimum flows needed to achieve a turbulent flow condition and maximize benefits of flushing effort.

2. Flow rate selected for flow velocity of 25 ft/sec in the schedule 80/160 pipe, as applicable. If there is a conflict between the pressure and flow rate requirements of this specification, the minimum flow rates must be governing, unless the working pressure of the system is exceeded. The uses of by-pass (flow control) valves are not allowed downstream of the flow meters.

C2.8.1.4 Whenever a noticeable increase in the pressure drop across strainers is observed, the strainers should be cleaned and bag renewed. Be aware that this may occur as frequency as 15 min intervals.

C2.8.1.5 During flushing, constant monitoring of the flushing oil must be maintained in order to determine the contamination level. Filtering must continue until the fluid entering the return flow filter meets the particle population ISO cleanliness code of 17/14, in accordance with ISO 4406. All flushing fluid must pass through the return filter after passing through each system flushing circuit. All samples must be taken at a point just prior to this filter

C2.8.1.6 Take a representative sample of oil from the hydraulic system of the hydraulic system. Send samples out for laboratory analysis. Analysis must include viscosity, moisture, total acid number, particle size and population in sufficient detail to determine ISO cleanliness code of 17/14, in accordance with ISO 4406. Submit CFR.”

3.7.8 SFLC Std Spec 6341, Appendix A, Paragraph A2.1.1, replace with “A2.1.1 Cove vase. Include a cove base, using the same epoxy resin deck covering system material, to a maximum height of four inches at all adjacent vertical bounding surfaces, where applicable."

A-Team: For availabilities at Navy facilities, be aware that Navy facilities have local base instructions (for example, NAVFAC P-307 for Weight Handling Program Management) that may pertain to Work Items in this specification package. It is highly recommended that local Navy NAVFAC personnel and the Coast Guard support element closest to the cutter participate in the 1st A-Team meeting to develop a list of local instructions that the Contractor should be aware of and include in the bid to meet those requirements.

As applicable, copy the following under paragraph 3.6, “3.6.1 This availability is to be conducted at an US Navy facility. The Contractor must comply with all US Naval facility instructions (e.g. NAVFAC P-307 for Weight Handling Program Management, etc.)”

3.7 SFLC Standard Specification approved changes. Approved updates to the 2022 SFLC Standard Specifications will appear here.

3.7.1 SFLC Standard Specification 5550: Replace paragraph 3.11.3 to state, “Material supporting imminent work shall be brought on the cutter and stored where the work is being performed. Material that appreciably contributes to fire load shall be removed at the end of each work shift when personnel are not present. Trash, debris, and packaging materials shall be promptly removed from the vessel at the end of each work shift and not allowed to accumulate.” Advance the paragraph numbering of the Fire Prevention and Safety Inspection form to 3.11.4.
