14. Contracting Officer’s notice of acceptance or rejection of the substitute tug shall be made within reasonable time following Owner’s nomination thereof, provided that the Contracting Officer is furnished sufficient information on which to base such a determination. Silence of the Contracting Officer shall not be construed as acceptance of any nominated tug.

OTHER SERVICES, RESPONSIBILITIES, PLANS AND REPORTS
24. COLLABORATIVE FIRE SUPPORT:
(a) General. Military and civilian facilities adjacent to San Diego Bay jointly enjoy a network of water mains and fire hydrants as part of the overall fire suppression scheme for the region.
Contingency planning efforts by the U.S. Navy, the U.S. Coast Guard and the San Diego Harbor Police Department (SDHPD) indicate a need to have a water source independent of the water main system, for fighting a major fire. At issue is the possibility that the water main system may become disabled during a natural disaster. During time of emergency in the seaport, the U.S.
Coast Guard Captain of the Port (COTP) has authority under 14 USC 141(b) to activate all available civilian and military resources to resolve the crisis, including the U.S. Navy contract tugboats. The U.S. Navy is the only San Diego based waterborne asset with sufficient pumping capacity to support fire trucks at the scene of a major waterfront conflagration. This is not intended to direct the U.S. Navy contract tugboat away from its primary mission of supporting the fleet.
(b) San Diego Harbor Police Responsibility. The San Diego Police shall provide the contract tugboat operator with manifold and hose equipment capable of connecting the tugboat fire pump to shore side fire apparatus.
(c) The San Diego Police shall provide a direct liaison during any mutual aid call for assistance.
(d) Owner Responsibility. The Owner shall be responsible for maintaining the manifold and hose system in good working order.
(e) Government Responsibility. The Government shall be responsible for deploying a tugboat at the request of the COTP, to the fire scene Incident Commander.
(f) Captain of the Port Responsibility. If not involved in other operations, the Captain of the Port shall, in conjunction with NRSW Regional Operations Center (ROC), coordinate the assignment of the contract tugboat with the fire scene Incident Commander and / or SDHPD.
25. DRY-DOCKING
(a) Contractor, at its expense, shall dry-dock, clean and maintain the Vessel's bottom and propeller, and properly make all overhaul and other necessary repairs to maintain the Vessel in class, maintain the Vessel in compliance with this contract and its warranties above, and otherwise to keep the Vessel tight, staunch, and strong, and in thoroughly efficient order and condition. All towage, pilotage, fuel, gas-freeing if required, water, and other expenses incurred during dry-dock, and while proceeding to and from dry-dock shall be for Owner's account.
(b) All dry-dockings under this clause shall be scheduled with the Charterer and shall be subject to the Off-Hire clause.
26. EMERGENCY SITUATIONS AND TRAINING.
(a) General. In the event that the Owner is unwilling or unable to perform those duties as directed, or to timely respond to emergency situations, and upon determination by the Commander, Navy Region Southwest (CNRSW) or his designated representative that the emergency so requires, the Owner agrees to relinquish custody and control of the tug(s) to the Government in order to allow the Government to respond to the emergency situation using the Owner’s tug(s)/equipment augmented in whole or in part by a Government crew. Such determination shall be provided to the Tug Master or designated representative by the Contracting Officer or the Contracting Officer’s Representative (COR). The period of Government operation and control shall not exceed that time required to respond to the emergency and properly return the tug(s) to Owner’s control.
(b) Mitigation. Owner’s release of the tug(s) for emergency operation by the Government shall serve to mitigate Owner's liability, if any, under the Termination for Cause clause of this contract. See FAR 52.212-4. The value of the release of tug(s) to the Government shall be offset against the Contractor's liability under the Termination for Cause clause. During a period of partial or complete augmentation of crew by the Government, as a result of default, the Owner shall not be entitled to charter hire.
(c) Owner Responsibility. The Owner shall cooperate and provide assistance in reactivation of the tug(s) from cold iron and provide any other assistance directed by the authorized Government representative(s).
(d) Government Responsibility. The Government shall be responsible for loss or damage to the tug(s) during periods of complete crew augmentation by the Government. During periods of partial crew augmentation, the Government shall be liable for damages resulting from Government action in accordance with the Federal Tort Claims Act.\
(e) Condition of Default. Any failure, untimely response, or refusal to perform any of the services outlined in this contract may be considered a condition of default under this charter, unless otherwise excepted.
(f) Training. The Owner shall provide the use of the Tug(s) and master(s) and crew(s) to train Government personnel in the operation of the Tug(s) as delineated in COMNAVREGSWINST 3502.1, comprised of Emergency Tug Operators, Emergency Tug Engineers and Emergency Tug Deckhands, and when directed by the Contracting Officer or COR in writing to be provided at least 24 hours in advance of the training. The training shall not be “crew augmentation” for purposes of subsection (1) of this section. The Owner shall not be relieved of responsibilities under the section titled "CHARTER NOT A DEMISE" of this charter during training. See clause 52.212-4 Addendum, 2 (d).
(1) Such training shall include, but not be limited to, the full operation of the tug(s) (e.g., reactivating from cold iron; underway operation; and towage of vessels/submarines).
Training shall include hands-on exercises and shall be conducted to ensure that Government personnel are able to properly, effectively and safely augment or replace the Owner's crew.
Training shall be of sufficient quality to allow for partial or complete augmentation of the contractor’s crew.
(2) Training shall take place during normal operating hours.
(3) Training shall be conducted to ensure that Government personnel are able to operate the tug(s) properly, effectively and safely in the event of an Emergency.
27. STRIKE CONTINGENCY PLAN
(a) The Contractor shall provide and maintain a strike contingency plan that describes how services will be provided if there is a labor strike or any other deficiency of Master or crewmembers. The plan must be practicable and must clearly state the means and method for vessel manning during a strike or labor action and for providing services in the face of disruptive measures typical of a strike situation. Award of the contract shall indicate the Contracting Officer’s approval of the plan, whose approval shall not be unreasonably withheld.

37. DELAYS/EXCESSIVE FUEL CONSUMPTION. If upon any passage the Vessel fails to make the warranted speed or if her warranted fuel consumption exceeds that offered due to defect in or breakdown of any part of her hull, machinery, or equipment; casualty; or inefficiency of Master, Officers, or crew or their failure to proceed with utmost dispatch, and if the Vessel is delayed more than two (2) hours, provided no missions were missed during that period of time, the hire for the time lost and any cost of extra fuel consumed, if any, shall be borne by the Owner.
