q) Owner must provide vessel itinerary from offer to arrival laydays.

r) Owner must confirm vessel will arrive at load port in a clean, gas-free condition, and be ready for internal tank inspection by Quality Assurance Representative (QAR). Ensure any adjacent tanks are also clean and gas free. Contractor shall provide (Owner's account) a Certified Marine Chemist to certify tanks safe for entry for internal tank inspection by Government / Charterer representative. Contractor will provide time needed to re-inert after inspection. If a prior (last and next to last) cargo contained a percentage of benzene, Owner’s Certified Marine Chemist must also measure toxicity for Benzene content and certify safe for entry. All safe for entry / toxicity / flammability assessments will be performed in the presence of the inspecting QAR.

s) Owner must provide, if vessel cargo tanks have heating coils, coil type or composition (such as stainless steel, copper, etc.).

t) If vessel cargo tanks have heating coils, owner must provide the date heating coils were last pressure tested and the results of the test (passed or failed).

v) Owner must provide copies of Certificates of Quality for vessel’s last three cargoes.

Vessel Certificates of Quality from vessel post-load samples are preferred, but if unavailable shore tank Certificates of Quality representing quality of product loaded are acceptable. The Certificates of Quality should contain the test data required by the specification for the product which were loaded. They shall be submitted for each shore tank as well as the vessel tanks after loading (composite sample). Results of “typical” are not acceptable.

Additionally the following are required for the specific products mentioned:

1. Naphtha / Condensates: Mercaptan Sulphur, reported in “parts per million” (ppm) or “mass percent”, or Doctor Test (ASTMD 4952). Otherwise, Certificates of Quality should contain the test data required by the specification for the products which were loaded.

2. Gasoline (Motor or Aviation): It must be stated whether the previous product was “leaded” or “unleaded”. This is needed to determine cargo tank “safe entry” testing requirements.

w) Owner must confirm if the last three cargoes carried were FAME (Fatty Acid Methyl Esters) free. If tanks did contain FAME owners must provide a statement stating the vessel cargo tanks were cleaned / conditioned in accordance with the guidance in Energy Institute HM50.

x) Owner must confirm vessel must be able to take upper, middle, lower, bottom, and all-level samples of the cargo (to include OBQ & ROB) without contaminating them from the sampling location. If unable to do so or if the sampling location is contaminated or suspected to be contaminated, Charterer will require open sampling on a tank by tank basis, consistent with safety and local terminal regulations.

y) Owner agrees where cargo is carried after contract award and prior to delivery to provide cargo type/description prior to loading, and applicable Certificates of Quality (to include all test data required in the initial RFP) for review within 48 hours after loading said cargo. Test shall be on a sample taken from the ship versus a representative sample from a shore facility. Any rejection of the Certificates of Quality by the Government shall result in the Government cancelling this contract at no cost to the Government.

z) Vessel must meet all MSC requirements for reporting. Vessel shall provide position/status reports in-port and at-sea every six (6) hours daily at 0000, 0600, 1200, and 1800 hours local Washington, DC time (GMT-5 EST/GMT-4 EDT) and 72/48/24/12 hrs. pre-arrival notifications for all ports to Area Command and COMSC PM51.

For time charters that complete prior to the end of the month, the report must be received no later than two calendar days after completion of charter (off-hire). Entries must start with the date the ship presents NOR and is accepted on hire. All columns must be completed as noted. Pull down menus for columns C, X and Y are the only comments to be use.

AMEND PART XI(d) and replace a, b, and c, with the following:

a. At a minimum, award will not be made to an offeror who is or within the past three years has been seriously deficient in contract performance, unless the Contracting Officer determines that the circumstances were properly beyond the offeror’s control or that the offeror took appropriate corrective action.
