Area shall be clear of any emergency hatches or scuttle locations. The ships deck area must accommodate the installation and welding of the mission system as identified in Diagram 1. The deck layout identified in Diagram 1 represents the nominal deck configuration as currently employed. Adjustments to the location of the major components, shown in Diagram 1, may be allowed to support vessel underlying deck structural configuration and allowable deck loading. The installed government mission equipment can be considered as three regions that may have their physical location modified from the nominal location within the constraints listed below.

NOTE: If the offeror chooses to propose a deviation from Diagram 1; they must submit drawing(s) and detailed narrative(s), with their proposal, to support such a change.

Technical acceptability is subject to the government’s concurrence. The three areas are:

1. Over-boarding chute and handling platform; The chute and handling platform shall be located immediately adjacent to the transom of the vessel. No deviation in the location is authorized. This chute and handling platform will be installed in the deck footprint identified in paragraph 3.d. and 3.g.

b) If the Government determines that the collection of all logs does not adequately protect its interests, the Contractor and NCIS will work together to implement additional measures, which may include allowing the installation of an appropriate network device that is owned and maintained by NCIS, on the Contractor's information systems or information technology assets. The specific details (e.g., type of device, type of data gathered, monitoring period) regarding the installation of an NCIS network device shall be the subject of a separate agreement negotiated between NCIS and the Contractor. In the alternative, the Contractor may install network sensor capabilities or a network monitoring service, either of which must be reviewed for acceptability by NCIS. Use of this alternative approach shall also be the subject of a separate agreement negotiated between NCIS and the Contractor.

c) In all cases, the collection or provision of data and any activities associated with this statement of work shall be in accordance with federal, state, and non-US law.
