3. REQUIREMENTS

3.1 General. The Contractor shall conform to all requirements specified in SFLC Std Spec 0000 and in this item, as applicable, during the performance of this availability.

2 (Rev-0)

NOTE

The requirements of paragraph 3.1 (General) applies to all work under the scope of this contract, whether explicitly stated in work items or not, and also to all other work subsequently authorized by changes, modifications, or extensions to the contract.

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

3.3 Welding and brazing requirements. The Contractor shall perform all welding and allied processes, and NDI in accordance with SFLC Std Spec 0740.

3.4 HW disposal. The Contractor shall be responsible for all hazardous wastes generated by work under this contract. Label and package all hazardous wastes in 49 CFR-approved containers, and in accordance with all other applicable Federal, state, and local laws and regulations. In addition, comply with applicable parts of 40 CFR 262, applicable to handling of hazardous wastes.

3.4.1 Along with the Government, the Contractor shall be contractually considered the co-generator of all hazardous wastes; be aware that the Government will make available its facility’s EPA Generator Identification (ID) Number for manifesting of hazardous wastes.

3.4.2 The Contractor shall identify, arrange, and be responsible for the turnover of all hazardous wastes, within the confines of the Coast Guard shore facility, to the facility’s HM/HW Coordinator. Notify the ship’s HW Coordinator prior to any transfers of HW from ship to shore.

3.4.3 The Contractor shall prepare a manifest of hazardous waste to be reviewed and signed by the HM/HW Coordinator. Contact the HM/HW Coordinator for turnover of any hazardous waste; in addition, notify the COTR in writing 24 hours prior to any waste removals, and ensure that waste removals are conducted during normal business hours (0800-1600) on Monday through Friday (excluding holidays).

3.4.4 The Contractor shall be aware of the following:

3.4.4.1 No Contractor or Subcontractor shall have the authority to sign a Hazardous Waste Manifest using the Coast Guard facility’s EPA Generator ID Number or remove contract generated hazardous waste from the Coast Guard facility without COTR or KO-approval.

3.4.4.2 Local environmental regulations at the Government facilities may be more stringent than in many jurisdictions. As with all environmental regulations, it is the Contractor's responsibility to research, prepare for, and comply with local and state regulations.

3.4.4.3 Coast Guard facilities do not have Facilities Response Plans (see 33 CFR 154 Subpart F). It is the Contractor’s responsibility to furnish the Facility Response Plan (FRP) when required for over-the-water liquids transfers to and from vessels. This requirement is applicable to transfers to/from vessels with an oil/fuel capacity of 250 barrels or more.

3.5 Pre-surface preparation test coupon. In order to ensure production of required surface profile, the Contractor shall accomplish the following tasks, whenever abrasive-blasting is required in a work item that is deemed a ”critical-coated’ surface:

3.5.1 Coupon material and test set-up particulars.

3.5.1.1 Conduct a performance test on all abrasive blasting operations on a Contractor- provided test coupon, prior to starting abrasive blasting operations on the vessel. Ensure the following:

3 (Rev-0)

• The coupon shall be a new metal plate, of the same metal type and material properties as the vessel area to be blasted - steel or aluminum plate, as applicable, and shall have no existing anchor profile - other than the surface irregularities from the manufacturing process.

• The test coupon shall be flat, with nothing welded to the side used for the anchor profile test, no thinner than a 1/8-inch plate and measuring no smaller than 1-foot by 1-foot.

• For steel substrates, the coupon shall have the mill scale intact, and be in a Rust Grade "A" condition, in accordance with SSPC-VIS 1.

• The test coupon shall be affixed so as to not permit excessive movement during the performance test, but shall not be affixed to the vessel.

3.5.1.2 Ensure that the abrasive-blasting operation for the test coupon is conducted with the identical setup and parameters that will be used blasting the designated vessel surfaces – including, but not limited to:

• The abrasive media type and media size selected to achieve the anchor profile range, as specified in the applicable work items.

• Nozzle size and type (straight bore, high velocity nozzle, angle nozzle...).

• Delivery rate and pressure settings.

3.5.1.3 Blast a one-square foot area on one side of the test coupon to the abrasive surface preparation standard specified in the work item, and perform an anchor profile test of the blasted surface in accordance with ASTM D4417, Method B or C. Notify the COTR in advance of the abrasive blasting operation test, to permit the witnessing of the test by the COTR. Submit a CFR documenting the results of the abrasive blasting operation test. The CFR shall include at a minimum, the following:

• Area of the vessel for which the verified setup will be used to abrasive blast.

• The selected abrasive media type and size.

• The nozzle size and type.

• The delivery rate and pressure.

• The test coupon starting properties (material type and surface conditions).

• The resultant anchor profile readings from the test (a minimum of 3 locations, separated by a minimum of

2 inches shall be recorded).

NOTES

1. A performance test of the abrasive blasting operations on a test coupon and measuring the resultant anchor profile prior to performing the abrasive blasting operation on the cutter is required. The test coupon will be used to evaluate the anchor profile produced by the equipment setup and selected abrasive media.

2. The reverse side of the test coupon may be used for the subsequent test, provided that the conditions in paragraph 3.5.1 (Coupon material and test set-up particulars) are met.

3. Ultra high pressure water jetting does not create an anchor profile and is exempt from the anchor profile test coupon check.

3.5.1.4 Repeat the abrasive blasting operation test in the following instances:

• The equipment setup, that was evaluated during the test coupon abrasive blasting performance test in paragraph 3.5.1 (Coupon material and test set-up particulars), has changed.

4 (Rev-0)

• The resultant anchor profile readings observed on the vessel are outside the specified anchor profile range.

• Media is changed from MIL-A-22262 to CID A-A-59316 or vice versa.

• The supplier of the abrasive blasting media changes, regardless if the new source for the media has the same specifications.

• When Directed by the COTR.

CAUTION!

Ensure that blast media from the performance test does not strike the vessel during the test.

3.6 Interim changes to SFLC Std Spec 0000. The Contractor shall be aware of the fact that the requirements of paragraph 3.3.2.1.1 (Water depth) have been revised to read as follows:

“3.3.2.1.1 Water depth. Ensure that water depth is sufficient at the pier to allow the vessel's lowest underwater appendage to clear the bottom by at least two feet at:

• Ordinary low water mark on non-tidal rivers.

• At all tide conditions predicted during the availability for tidal rivers and other navigable waterways (Bay, Lake, etc.).”

3.3.1 Fabricate and install the foundation adapter plate for the Master Compass, using TP 3719 (paragraph 8-3).

Position the Gyro Compass adapter plate to provide maximum clearance to the rear of the gyrocompass for cable connections while considering a bolting scheme which will adequately fasten the plate to the existing foundation and allowing sufficient spacing for mounting of the gyrocompass. Mount adapter plates using appropriate hardware, (316 stainless steel, 5/16” bolts, flat washers and lock washers).

3.3.2 Mount foundation adapter “C” clips to the existing Repeater Transmission Unit foundation. The new transmission unit will not fit between the beams as the existing unit does. The foundation adapter “C” clips allow for mounting the new BBG Repeater Data Interface Unit outside the confines of the beams. Mount ‘C” Clips with 5/16” hardware using hex head bolts, flat and lock washers, (316 Stainless Steel). It may be necessary to drill the existing mounting holes to accommodate the 5/16” hardware. Install mounting plate to “C” Clips using 5/16” hardware. Drill as necessary to accommodate the mounting holes of the BBG Repeater transmission Unit

3.4 New equipment installation. The Contractor shall install all new equipment in accordance with the references listed in Section 2.

3.4.1 Compass installation. Mount Master Compass on newly installed adapter plate using the hardware from the supplied installation kit (NG part #4301250). Conduct physical installation of the master compass in accordance with TP 3719, Chapter 8, sections 8-1 through 8-11. Mount BBG Repeater Transmission Unit to its mounting plate using 5/16” S.S hardware as used in section 3.3.2.

3.4.2 Repeater connection. Connect all repeater cables to BBG-Repeater Transmission Unit. Note that cables for the “Vital” repeaters (C-LC8 and C-LC9) will now be driven by circuitry in the BBG-Repeater Transmission Unit.

3.4.3 Master Compass connection. The NG MK27F Gyro Compass System is supplied with a Connector Kit (NG part # 4301242-1 or 4301242-2). The part number ending in the number “2” indicates that the connectors are right-angle connectors. This would be a better choice of connectors for this particular installation given the position of the master compass. There are no changes between the two connection options IRT electrical connection. Make connections on cables 1R-RN5, C-Y10, C-LC3, L-LC4, and L-LC30. Actual pin configuration can be found in section 8 of TP 3719.

A) SYSTEM ALIGNMENT MENU

a) SYSTEM ALIGNMENT menu allows entry /change of the mechanical mounting offsets selected at installation (i.e. the orientation of the gyro if it was not positioned with its front-rear azimuth marks in line with the ship’s centerline and if the roll and pitch of the mounting surface were not exactly 0 degrees). Since the MK-27F Gyro can be mounted at any angle to the ship’s centerline, the HDG entry in the SYSTEM ALIGNMENT menu is used to correct for the mounting position as it deviates from the fore-aft centerline (or heading) of the ship. The value entered is subtracted from the gyro heading; e.g. if the gyro is mounted facing starboard the heading offset should be increased by +1 degree. Roll and pitch offsets are aligned similarly; the offset modifies the roll or pitch output. In STANAG 4222 convention, (see OTHER menu), the offset is subtracted from the roll and pitch, and in US NAVY convention it is added to the roll and pitch. Heading is not affected by the selection of STANAG 4222 or US NAVY convention. Note: In typical installations of the gyrocompass for navigation use, the roll and pitch offsets are left at zero.

ATTENTION: If roll and pitch offsets are used, the offsets should be entered in the following order to ensure correct alignment with the ship axes: HDG first, then PITCH, then ROLL last.

NOTE

For alignment (entering offsets) references, the side of the gyro with the connectors is the forward (0000) side of the gyro and the side of the gyro with the display is the aft (1800) side of the gyro. This is important when entering offsets (alignment) into the gyro.

After the gyro is in the ALIGNED state, the actual heading, roll and pitch are displayed next to these offset entries. This allows real-time adjustment of the heading, roll or pitch error. The change to ALIGNED state

20 (Rev-0) occurs approximately 12-15 minutes after power up. However, the gyro error determined before two (2) hours after power-up is not as accurate as after the gyro is fully settled which occurs within not later than two (2) hours after gyro power-up.

ATTENTION: Verify the gyro alignment (offset) using the settled gyro heading compared to the ship’s true heading. It is best to let the MK27F Gyro settle at least two (2) hours before checking the gyro error (MK27-F Gyro heading compared to reference (master gyro) heading). If gyro error is out of specification, change the system alignment values (offsets) as required to eliminate the gyro error.

B) OTHER MENU

a) OTHER menu contains the means for operator to set the Rate Of Turn (ROT) filter time constant (in seconds), the roll and Pitch convention (US NAVY or STANAG 4222) and to see (read only) the software version (part number and revision letter) of the software that is installed in the gyro.

21 (Rev-0)

b) ROT Filter Time Constant:

The typical formula for Rate of Turn time constant is as follows:

ROT Time Constant = ship’s length (feet) / 1.69 x Cruising Speed (knots) Typical values might be 8 – 10 seconds for a tug, 14 seconds for a DDG, 35 seconds for a large tanker, and 45 seconds for a large ore carrier. It is suggested that the operator enter a value that will match the ship’s response so that there is not any higher frequency noise, motion, or vibration effects in the rate of turn output. The default setting is 1.0 seconds.

Conducted/Verified by______________

c) Roll and Pitch Sign Convention:

The Roll and Pitch sign convention options are as follows:

US NAVY: Positive pitch is Bow Down, Positive Roll is Starboard Up.

STANAG 4222: Positive Pitch is Bow Up, Positive Roll is Port Up.

The gyro alignment (offsets) for Roll and Pitch polarity reverse when the convention is changed.

Also refer to SYSTEM ALIGNMENT menu.

d) After all configuration data has been entered and checked, exit back into the Off-Line Mode menu using the LEFT <key> (←). (Note: The key may need to be pushed several times depending on where you are in the sub-menus). Observe that the following OFF-Line Mode menu is displayed.
