This includes delivery of fuel and documentation in a manner consistent with any existing or after-imposed Title V (Clean Air Act) Permits. The list of such requirements contained in this contract is not intended to be a complete list, and the Contractor shall be responsible for determining the existence of all such requirements. Selected regional environmental requirements are highlighted in the SPECIFICATIONS (CONT’D) clause. In the event that a Federal, State, or local environmental requirement is more stringent than a fuel specification contained in this contract, the Contractor shall deliver product that complies with the more stringent fuel specification. Product that fails to meet the more stringent fuel specification will be considered to be a nonconforming supply. Product(s) to be supplied shall fully meet the requirements of the applicable specification(s) as cited above. In the event that compliance with the more stringent fuel specification causes the contractor to incur additional costs, the contractor may request an equitable adjustment.

(a) PRODUCT REQUIREMENTS. Product shall conform to the latest version of ASTM D1655: Standard Specification for Aviation Turbine Fuels with the following modifications. For European, Middle Eastern, and Asian Locations Only: product shall conform to the latest revision of Defence Standard 91-091.
