A. Questions/Answers to Request for Clarification with regards to dock-side repairs of CGC ANTHONY PETIT (WLM-558)

0001 Question: D-07, Vent Ducts (Galley and Pantry Room All), Commercial Cleaning, paragraph 3.4.3; It states “Ensure that cleaning of galley ventilation systems is scheduled between 1300 and 0530 so that it WILL NOT interfere with meal preparation and service.” The cleaners say this is a 3 to 5 day job and to break down the system and clean a portion of the system then put it back together each day so the ship can use the galley will drive the cost up. Will the sections cleaned during scheduled times be accepted as complete or can the Government not use the system until the entire system is cleaned and accepted?

Answer: Government shall relax this requirement and will allow tagging out the entire galley equipment/ventilation for a period of one continuous calendar week. The Government shall require submittal of the planning document specified by SFLC Std Spec 0000 Paragraph 3.2.5, with relevant scheduled dates of galley closure, two weeks prior to the Arrival Conference to allow enough time for the Government to prepare alternate arrangements.

0002 Question: D-12, Buoy Crane, Inspect and Service-tier II; It is believed the Period of Performance probably does not allow enough time for shipping components in and out of the area for overhaul. Will the Contractor be allowed a lay down area on the pier to perform some of the repairs and rebuilding of the equipment listed?

Answer: The Contractor may place an 8’ X 20’ Connex box in the buoy yard for the duration of the contract.
