CLAUSES INCORPORATED BY FULL TEXT

B-215-H002 REFUNDS (SPARES AND SUPPORT EQUIPMENT) (NAVSEA) (OCT 2018)

(a) In the event that the price of a spare part or item of support equipment delivered under this contract significantly exceeds its intrinsic value, the Contractor agrees to refund the difference. Refunds will not be made to recoup the amount of cost decreases that occur over time due to productivity gains (excluding economic purchase quantity considerations) or changes in market conditions.

(b) For purposes of this requirement, the intrinsic value of an item is defined as follows:

(1) If the item is one which is sold or is substantially similar or functionally equivalent to one that is sold in substantial quantities to the general public, intrinsic value is the established catalog or market price, plus the value of any unique requirements, including delivery terms, inspection, packaging, or labeling.

(2) If there is no comparable item sold in substantial quantities to the general public, intrinsic value is defined as the price an individual would expect to pay for the item based upon an economic purchase quantity as defined in FAR 52.207-4, plus the value of any unique requirements, including delivery terms, inspection, packaging or labeling.

(c) At any time up to two years after delivery of a spare part or item of support equipment, the Contracting Officer may notify the Contractor that based on all information available at the time of the notice, the price of the part or item apparently exceeds its intrinsic value.

(d) If notified in accordance with paragraph (c) above, the Contractor agrees to enter into good faith negotiations with the Government to determine if, and in what amount, the Government is entitled to a refund.

(e) If agreement pursuant to paragraph (d) above cannot be reached, and the Navy's return of the new or unused item to the Contractor is practical, the Navy, subject to the Contractor's agreement, may elect to return the item to the Contractor.

Upon return of the item to its original point of Government acceptance, the Contractor shall refund in full the price paid.

If no agreement pursuant to paragraph (d) above is reached, and return of the item by the Navy is impractical, the Contracting Officer may, with the approval of the Head of the Contracting Activity, issue a Contracting Officer's final decision on the matter, subject to Contractor appeal as provided in the "Disputes" clause (FAR 52.233-1).

(f) The Contractor shall make refunds, as required under this requirement, in accordance with instructions from the Contracting Officer.

(g) The Contractor shall not be liable for a refund if the Contractor advised the Contracting Officer in a timely manner that the price it would propose for a spare part or item of support equipment exceeded its intrinsic value, and with such advice, specified the estimated proposed price, the estimated intrinsic value and known alternative sources or item, if any, that can meet the requirement.

(h) This requirement does not apply to any spare parts or items of support equipment whose price is determined through adequate price competition. This requirement also does not apply to any spare part or item of support equipment if the Contractor submitted, and certified the currency, accuracy and completeness of, cost or pricing data applicable to the item.

(b) Workers being paid under this contract, as prime contractor personnel or subcontractor personnel, will complete a full shift at the worksite, and no compensation will be paid for travel time before or after the shift.

(c) This requirement pertains only to payments for travel time before or after these workers' regular shifts (commuting costs), and does not apply to legitimate travel costs incurred during normal working hours, provided that those costs are otherwise reasonable, allocable and allowable and approved in writing by the Government. This requirement does not apply to manufacturer's representatives or Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) representatives when specifically required by the Government work specifications.

(d) Additionally, the contractor shall not charge, and the Government shall not pay, any transportation costs under this contract associated with transporting contractor or subcontractor personnel between the contractor's facility (or subcontractor's facility), and any other worksite to perform ship repair, maintenance or modernization.

7.5.9 Contractor shall provide new or like new containers and/or drums for packing waste. Containers/drums shall not be used as a shipping container; instead, these containers shall be packed into Sealands for shipment. NNSY may provide Sealands to the contractor to pack radioactive waste directly into if the contractor request a Sealand container from NNSY. Shipping containers and conveyances supplied to the NNPP sites shall be either new or refurbished and appear in a like new condition on all interior and exterior sides, including the top and bottom sides. All seals on access panels (i.e., doors and removable tops) shall be new or refurbished to be in a like new condition. Latches, door handles, chains and binders located on or attached to the container shall be in proper working order and be new or in a like new condition. The Sealand shall remain under NNSY custody during all work evolutions. The Sealand shall be used as a shipping container and shall meet the requirements of reference (5.1).

The contractor shall not move, lift, or alter the NNSY provided Sealand container. The contractor shall return the Sealand to NNSY in the same state as received once packing is complete.

7.5.10 Each container of waste turned over to NNSY shall have a detailed inventory list provided. This inventory shall be a breakdown of the waste in the bag as annotated on the Technical Work Document (TWD) or Waste Evaluation

7.6.6 The contractor shall provide PCB analysis sheets, chemical analysis sheets, etc.

for individual mixed and/or PCB/radioactive waste items to verify characterization of the waste. This characterization data may be based on either appropriate process knowledge or sample analysis. This data (analysis sheets, surveys, etc.) is to be attached to the Appendix A associated with the waste items.

Characterization information should be provided prior to the date of generation.

7.6.7 The contractor shall package all mixed and/or PCB/radioactive waste to be transferred to NNSY.

7.6.8 The contractor shall provide the necessary support to permit NNSY to visually inspect any mixed and/or PCB/radioactive waste prior to transfer to NNSY.

The use of other types of packaging materials requires NNSY approval. The weight for bagged mixed and/or PCB/radioactive waste should be kept to a maximum of 35 lbs per bag unless otherwise approved by NNSY Code 2380.6. This does not apply to vacuums or chip collectors.

7.6.9.3 Each package of waste turned over to NNSY shall have a detailed inventory list provided. This inventory shall be a breakdown of the weight percent of each component of the waste in the bag as annotated on the TWD or Waste Evaluation Form. Be specific. Do not use general terms such as “debris” to describe several waste forms, such as rubber gloves, absorbents, paint chips, etc. An example of a breakdown would be a bag containing 85% delicate task tissue wipes, 15% cloth diapers.

7.6.9.4 For large components and pieces of equipment (i.e. vacuum canisters, chip collectors), the bagging requirements of this section are not applicable. However, an inventory shall still be provided.
