1.3 Place of Performance - Work will primarily be performed on-site at the Portsmouth Naval Shipyard in Kittery, Maine.

1.4 Non-Personal Service Statement - Contractor employees performing services under this order will be controlled, directed, and supervised at all times by management personnel of the contractor. Contractor management will ensure that employees properly comply with the performance work standards outlined in this Performance Work Statement.
