Additional reports/charts shall be presented at each meeting as required by Definite Item “Production Control, Gantt Bar Chart Provide”.

3.8 REPORTS/READINGS/AS FOUND CONDITIONS

3.8.1 All readings and inspections are to be taken within twenty-four hours after the machinery or system is opened. The Contractor shall notify the COR of the time and location of inspections requiring Coast Guard verification 24 hours prior to such inspections, unless such inspections need to be conducted more than 50 road miles from the primary place of contact performance, in which case 3 working days notice is required, in order to make travel arrangements for the Coast Guard inspectors. Measurements and readings shall be taken with calibrated measurement and test instrumentation. All reports of readings, operational tests and inspections required by the specifications shall be submitted to the COR in writing, using a “Condition Found Report (CFR)”, within twenty-four hours after the readings and/or inspections are made. Promptness in taking and reporting readings is particularly important for underbody work items such as shaft bearing or rudder bearing clearances. Often during the progress of a work item, conditions are discovered by the Contractor which are considered abnormal for reasons of safety, expected reliability, health, or habitability. These conditions must be brought to the attention of the Coast Guard using a CFR.

Details provided by the Contractor in a CFR are important because the CFR may result in a contract change. To speed the contract change process, the Contractor should include in the CFR the following details as a minimum:

3.8.1.1 A sequential number.

3.8.1.2 The contract item which the “CFR” relates to (i.e. D-XX).

3.8.1.3 A clear statement, definition, and description of the condition found, including but not limited to frame numbers, part numbers, materials, and dimensions as appropriate.

3.8.1.4 A proposed or recommended repair to correct the defective condition, including but not limited to frame numbers, part numbers, materials, and dimensions as appropriate.

3.8.1.5 Indicate whether the report requires Coast Guard action or if it is provided “for info” only. If action is required, indicate the time and date when the Coast Guard response is required in order to complete the action within the specified contract performance period. If the action cannot be completed within the specified contract period, so state.

3.8.1.6 A space on the form for the Coast Guard designated representative to make comments.

3.8.1.7 All CFRs shall be signed, dated and submitted by the Contractor’s Ship Superintendent.

3.9 GOVERNMENT FURNISHED MATERIAL/EQUIPMENT

3.9.1 The Contractor shall furnish all equipment, staging, materials, fittings, tools, etc., necessary for proper completion of each item of work unless the specifications indicate the Coast Guard will provide

GFM/GFE.

3.9.2 If GFM/GFE is to be furnished by the Coast Guard, it will be indicated in the specification for the specified work item. Unless otherwise noted in the specifications, GFM/GFE will be delivered by the Government to pierside/dockside of the vessel (at the place the vessel is located for the performance of work under this contract). Unless otherwise noted in the specifications, delivery date will be at the Coast Guard’s discretion between the start of the contract and up to 5 working days after the start of the contract.

3.9.3 The Contractor shall perform sufficient receipt inspection of the GFM/GFE and then sign for custody of the GFM/GFE by a Coast Guard form DD1149 or comparable Contractor’s form. The Contractor assumes the risk of, and shall be responsible for, any loss or destruction of, or damage to Government property upon its delivery to the Contractor. However, the Contractor is not responsible for reasonable wear and tear to Government property properly consumed in performing this work.

3.9.4 It shall be the Contractor’s responsibility to move or rig all GFM/GFE from the point of delivery to the point of storage (if necessary) and then to the point of use.

3.9.5 At the end of the contract, the Contractor shall turn over to the Coast Guard any and all GFM/GFE which was not installed under the terms of the contract.

3.10 SANITARY FACILITIES

3.10.1 Sanitary facilities for Contractor personnel shall be Contractor’s responsibility; Contractor’s sanitary facilities shall be separate & distinct from sanitary facilities used by vessel personnel. During any period that any or all of the vessel’s head facilities are unavailable for use due to Contractor’s performance under this contract, the Contractor shall provide clean, sanitary replacement facilities.

3.10.2 If at any time during the performance of the contract, Contractor work will place vessel sanitary facilities out of service, the Contractor shall provide temporary replacement facilities. The minimum replacement facility for up to 18 crew members displaced shall be hot and cold running water with a minimum of 2 showers, 2 sinks, 2 toilets, and 1 urinal located no further than two hundred feet from the vessel’s gangway. Facility shall be equipped with electrical lighting and power outlets (110 VAC with ground fault circuit interrupters, GFCI’s) for powering of electrical appliances (e.g., blow dryers). If more crew members are displaced, the replacement facilities shall be increased in direct proportion to this ratio.

4.1 TAG-OUT PROCEDURES

4.1.1 To prevent injury to personnel and/or damage to ship systems equipment tag-outs must be properly conducted. Ship’s force will work closely with the Contractor to ensure tag-outs are done in a thorough and efficient manner as outlined below and in more detail in COMDTINST 9077.1, Equipment Tag-out Procedure.

4.1.2 Tag-Out Establishment

4.1.2.1 Prior to start of work on this Item, notify the Coast Guard Inspector in writing of equipment, systems, circuits, components, piping, and valves that require isolation so that tag-outs can be accomplished as required by COMDTINST 9077.1, Equipment Tag-out Procedure.

4.1.2.2 Ship’s Force personnel will position equipment and install tags when tag-out of equipment, systems, circuits, components, piping, or valves as required.

4.1.2.3 The Ship’s Authorizing Officer (normally the Engineer of the Watch) and the Repair Activity (Contractor’s) Representative shall each verify that the tag-out is sufficient to prevent operation of equipment, systems, circuits, components, piping, or valves from all stations that could exercise control.

Tags shall also be hung as required by COMDTINST 9077.1, Equipment Tag-out Procedure, paragraph 1.d to control the status of non-permanent jumpers, locking devices, seals, blank flanges, relief valve gags, or similar safety devices.

4.1.2.4 A Contractor’s representative shall also verify that each tag is attached to the proper component and that it is in the condition required by the tag-out record sheet. This verification shall be made by witnessing the actions of the Ship’s Force member posting or checking the tags and observing devices such as valve position indicators, operating handles, etc.

4.1.2.5 A Contractor’s designated representative shall sign and identify his company on each ship’s tag-out record sheet and tag prepared to support the Contractor’s work.

4.1.3 Tag-Out Clearance

4.1.3.1 To facilitate prompt removal of tags, the Contractor shall notify the Coast Guard Inspector immediately when the Contractor’s work is complete and the affected system, piping, or circuit is ready for activation.

4.1.3.2 Tags shall be cleared and removed in accordance with COMDTINST 9077.1, Equipment Tag-out Procedure, before the equipment is operationally tested or operated.

4.1.3.3 The Ship’s Authorizing Officer and the Repair Activity (Contractor’s) Representative shall each verify that the work necessary to clear a tag-out has been completed prior to authorizing removal of the tags. Both parties shall concur to clearing the tag-out by signing the ship’s tag-out record sheet.

4.1.3.4 Ship’s Force personnel will remove the tags so authorized for clearance.

4.2 SAFETY REQUIREMENTS

4.2.1 The Contractor shall comply with and ensure compliance to the following for operations which may affect Government personnel or property: 29 CFR Part 1915, “Occupational Safety and Health Standards for Shipyard Employment”, 29 CFR Part 1910, “Occupational Safety and Health Standards”, and 29 CFR Part 1926 “Safety and Health Requirements for Construction”.

4.2.2 The following are deficiencies commonly encountered on safety inspections and are therefore emphasized here:

4.2.2.1 Anti-backflash control valves are required on all welding rigs (NFPA 51).

4.2.2.2 Scaffolds and/or lifelines are required when working above five feet. 29 CFR 1910 and 1915 cover this in detail. The following are commonly encountered problem areas:

4.2.2.2.1 Scaffolds require standard 42” high rails & midrails and 4” toeboards.

4.2.2.2.2 Planking must be scaffold-grade and completely cover the area between the railings and the ship.

4.2.2.3 Lifelines, body harnesses and lanyards are required wherever standard rails are not feasible. Lines must be kept taut, never allowing a fall of greater than six feet.

4.2.2.4 Lifelines must be attached above the worker.

4.2.3 Gear and equipment for rigging and lifting shall be in good working condition and operated according to the regulations set forth in 29 CFR 1915.111-116 and 29 CFR 1910.184.

4.2.4 Tools and related equipment are addressed in 29 CFR 1915 Subpart H. Of particular concern is the use of ground fault circuit interrupters (GFCI) with power tools and the use of double insulated power tools. All shore supplied power circuits shall be protected by GFCI’S and have a grounding circuit back to shore. In addition, all power tools shall be approved by Underwriters’ Laboratories, or by other testing laboratories approved by the Contracting Officer and either be double insulated or have a grounded circuit.

4.2.5 Personnel protective equipment must be maintained and used in accordance with 29 CFR 1915.151- 160.

4.2.5.1 Where personnel exposures can not be maintained below the PEL using appropriate engineering controls, the Contractor shall provide all Contractor personnel with appropriate respiratory protective equipment or other protective equipment specified by the manufacture or where the Contractor/Contractor’s industrial hygienist has determined that exposures could exceed the PEL. The Contractor shall also ensure personnel are properly protected from sensitizing agents/conditions reported by the manufacturer in the Material Safety Data Sheets. These operations include, but are not limited to spray painting and grinding. Selection of respiratory protective equipment should be based on sound industrial hygiene sampling data for the material being worked. Airline hose masks or Self Contained Breathing Apparatus (SCBA) shall be provided to all personnel conducting abrasive blasting or confined space operations, unless an industrial hygienist has determined that exposures can be maintained below the PEL. In addition, respiratory protection for all work which could be immediately dangerous to life and health must consist of either an SCBA or a airline hose mask with an escape bottle as a designed component of the mask assembly.

4.2.5.2 Air line respirators shall be fitted with a pressure regulating valve, a filter which will remove oil, water, and rust particles, and a carbon monoxide alarm. The air intake shall be from a source free from all contaminants, such as the exhaust from internal combustion engines, and air must meet Grade D.

4.2.5.3 Safety harnesses shall be equipped with lifelines which are secured with a minimum of slack when in use. Lifelines must not permit a drop of greater than six feet or contact with any lower level.

4.2.6 Confined space entry requires initial gas free certification by a Marine Chemist in accordance with 29 CFR 1915 (59 FR 37816 of 25 Jul 94). The Contractor shall be responsible for monitoring and maintaining the “safe” condition during the entire time work is being performed. Monitoring shall be conducted by a NFPA certified Marine Chemist or a Competent Person. As a minimum, test/certification shall be made before each work shift or daily, whichever is more frequent, and duly recorded on all required certificates.

4.2.7 The Contractor shall provide to the vessel Material Safety Data Sheets for all hazardous materials used under this contract (including petroleum products), at least two working days prior to its use, if not previously submitted per paragraph 3.3. These include, but are not limited to, paints, solvents, cleaners, and abrasive blasting grits.

4.2.8 The Contractor shall ensure paints, solvents, etc., used in, on or around the vessel are used in a manner which prevents personnel exposure to concentrations of vapors exceeding Permissible Exposure Limits (PELs), or Threshold Limit Values (TLVs) for chemicals for which PELs are not listed in OSHA standards.

4.2.9 Each fuel and gas system supplied from shore shall be arranged to be secured by a valve located off the ship and marked to show its purpose. When not in use, fuel and gas hose valves shall be secured at the manifolds and the hoses pulled back to the open deck. Unused manifold valves shall be capped.

4.2.10 The Contractor shall control abrasive blast grit sufficiently to prevent exposure to personnel at or greater than Permissible Exposure Limits (as defined by OSHA). Ensure abrasive blast grit does not contain free silica.

4.2.11 Diving operations must be accomplished in accordance with the requirements of 29 CFR 1910.401 to 440 including appendices. No person may fill more than one assignment if it an emergency response or other incident may require complete dedication to one of the tasks.

4.3 QUALITY CONTROL

4.3.1 The Contractor shall implement the quality control (QC) program submitted in paragraph 3.4.9.

Quality assurance is the sole responsibility of the Contractor. The COR may delegate inspection responsibilities to members of the vessel’s crew. The designated inspectors monitor the progress of work done by the Contractor. If, during the performance of work the Coast Guard Inspectors witness work that fails to meet the specifications, work that is otherwise unsatisfactory, or conditions which may lead to an unsatisfactory end product, the inspectors will alert the COR who will advise the Contractor informally of the deficiency. If the deficient work is not corrected within a reasonable period of time (as approved by the COR), the COR will officially alert the Contractor via a Contract Deficiency Report. The COR will initiate the report (a sample report may be found at http://www.uscg.mil/mlcpac/mlcp/Eng%20Support/mlcpv/files/platform_support/Arrival_Agenda_Pkg_Fo rm.doc) and submit it to the Contracting Officer with copies to the cognizant NESU and MLCPAC(vr).

The Contracting Officer will forward the original to the Contractor.

4.4 INTERFERENCES

4.4.1 The prices offered shall include the cost of performing all the necessary removal, relocation, and/or reinstallation of ship’s structure, materials, and equipment in connection with the work. The fact that an interference is not shown on a plan or specifically identified in the specification item is not justification for a contract change. A physical check of each job aboard the vessel prior to bidding is strongly encouraged.

4.4.2 Removal and Reinstallation of Interferences. The Contractor shall remove and reinstall all interferences and obstructions necessary to complete the required work without regard to whether interferences are indicated under specification work items. This may include the removal of machinery, piping, ducts, wiring, insulation, structure and anything else which interferes with the proper accomplishment of a work item. Prior to being disturbed or removed and in the presence of the Coast Guard Inspector, the Contractor shall operationally test each interference reporting by Condition Found Report any existing operational defects or deficiencies. While awaiting reinstallation and restoration, the Contractor shall maintain and protect interferences. When determined to be in the best interest of the Coast Guard & the Contractor and upon Coast Guard approval, interferences may be modified or altered and returned to essentially the same configuration and condition. They are then to be retested in the presence of the Coast Guard Inspector to verify proper operation. Otherwise, upon completion of required work, the Contractor shall restore interferences to their original configuration and condition, and in the presence of the Coast Guard Inspector retest for proper operation.

4.5 EXTERIOR/COMPARTMENT PRESERVATION/PROTECTION

4.5.1 To prevent damage arising from the performance of the contracted work, it shall be the responsibility of the Contractor to provide adequate protection to the vessel or any government property in areas where the work under items of these specifications is to be accomplished. Any damage resulting from the Contractor’s failure to adequately protect the vessel or government property shall be repaired by the Contractor at no charge to the government.

4.5.2 Compartment Cleaning and Finishing – When the Contractor enters a compartment for the accomplishment of work, the Contractor is to notify the Coast Guard Inspector and jointly inspect the compartment prior to starting the work. All areas in way of the Contractor’s work, whether or not directly repaired or altered, are to be restored to as clean and ship shape condition on completion of the work as when work was started. For example, the decks leading to work areas are to be cleaned and, if required due to unusual wear by the Contractor’s crew, the work sections are to be either refinished or renewed so that they match the original condition of the decks.

4.5.3 Protective Coverings – All machinery, equipment, deck covering, insulation, and open vent terminals exposed to dust or drifting particles resulting from work under this contract shall be adequately protected. Methods of protection include, but are not limited to fire-retardant blanket (if required due to sparks or slag), canvas, or plastic coverings. All open vent intakes shall be completely covered with air intake screens fitted with 20 pores per inch polyester or polyurethane foam filtering material and shall be maintained by the Contractor to prevent excessive air restriction and/or damage to ventilation motors.
