STATEMENT OF WORK

Shark Bait

1. Background/Scope

Since 1989 members of the Apex Predators Program, National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS), Northeast Fisheries Science Center (NEFSC) have conducted eight Coastal Shark Longline Surveys along the Atlantic coast in April and May. The initial survey was conducted between Tampa Bay, FL and southern New England (Cruise DE II 89-03). Since that survey, the stations have been truncated due to time and bottom conditions with the current cruise track extending from approximately mid-Florida to Delaware. Various vessels have been used during the survey, since the vessel is merely a platform to deploy the gear as per a standard protocol; it is not considered a variable. In 1996, the gear changed to more accurately represent that of the commercial large coastal shark fishery, bait was changed to improve retention rate and soak times were increased to obtain a higher catch. No changes in bait, gear, or fishing methods have been made since that time. Station locations are repeated, though direction of the sets are dependent on wind and current direction. The cruises have remained the same with respect to biological studies of sharks.

2. Requirement/Deliverables

a. Contractor shall provide 9,000 lbs of spiny dogfish for bait required to complete a Large Coastal Shark Survey in the spring 2014.

b. Each spiny dogfish shall be 3+ pounds after conforming to the following specifications:

• Gutted

• Head off

• Pectoral and dorsal fins off

• Tail off

• Anal Fins on

• Skin on

• Belly on

• Individually frozen

c. Contractor shall provide the Government a sample of three (3) fish for inspection and acceptance from the contractor’s first catch. The samples shall conform to the specification requirements of 2b above. The shipping and handling will be paid for separately by the Government.

d. Contractor shall pack the individually frozen fish in boxes of 25-30lbs each.

e. Contractor shall store conforming fish in contractor provided freezer at contractor designated location within a 50 mile radius of New Bedford, MA no later than April 1, 2014 through April 30, 2014.

EE133F-13-RQ-0500

PAGE 5 OF 13 EE-133F-13-RQ-0500

3. Performance Period The period of performance is from date of award through April 30, 2014.

The 2014 Large Coastal Shark Survey has been scheduled for April 2014, but the exact date has not yet been determined. As a result, all 9,000lbs of fish shall be readily available for government pickup at the contractor provided freezer facility from April 1, 2014 through April 30, 2014. The Government Point of Contact will notify the contractor of the exact date once it has been determined.

4. Contractor Quality Control - Inspection and Acceptance of First Catch To ensure product quality and conformation, a minimum sample of three (3) dogfish shall be provided to the Government from the first catch. Shipping and handling will be paid for separately by the Government. The contractor shall not commence with further fishing until inspection and approval has been provided by the Government Point of Contact.

5. Government Provided Services The Government will be responsible for picking up dogfish bait at contractor identified location within 50 miles from New Bedford, MA from April 1, 2014 through April 30, 2014. The Government will pay for shipping and handling of fish samples in accordance with Section 4 of Statement of Work.

“Commercial and Government Entity (CAGE) code” means—

(1) A code assigned by the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Logistics Information Service to identify a commercial or Government entity; or

“Data Universal Numbering System+4 (DUNS+4) number” means the DUNS number means the number assigned by D&B plus a 4-character suffix that may be assigned by a business concern. (D&B has no affiliation with this 4-character suffix.) This 4-character suffix may be assigned at the discretion of the business concern to establish additional SAM records for identifying alternative Electronic Funds Transfer (EFT) accounts (see the FAR at Subpart 32.11) for the same concern.

“Registered in the SAM database” means that—

(1) The Contractor has entered all mandatory information, including the DUNS number or the DUNS+4 number, as well as data required by the Federal Funding Accountability and Transparency Act of 2006 (see Subpart 4.14) into the SAM database;

(2) The Contractor’s CAGE code is in the SAM database; and

(3) The Government has validated all mandatory data fields, to include validation of the Taxpayer Identification Number (TIN) with the Internal Revenue Service (IRS), and has marked the record “Active”. The Contractor will be required to provide consent for TIN validation to the Government as a part of the SAM registration process.

“System for Award Management (SAM)” means the primary Government repository for prospective federal awardee information and the centralized Government system for certain contracting, grants, and other assistance related processes. It includes—

(b) (1) The Contractor shall be registered in the SAM database prior to submitting an invoice and through final payment of any contract, basic agreement, basic ordering agreement, or blanket purchasing agreement resulting from this solicitation.

(2) The SAM registration shall be for the same name and address identified on the contract, with its associated CAGE code and DUNS or DUNS+4.

(3) If indicated by the Government during performance, registration in an alternate system may be required in lieu of SAM.

(c) If the Contractor does not have a DUNS number, it should contact Dun and Bradstreet directly to obtain one.

PAGE 8 OF 13 EE-133F-13-RQ-0500

(1) A Contractor may obtain a DUNS number—

(i) Via the internet at http://fedgov.dnb.com/webform or if the contractor does not have internet access, it may call Dun and Bradstreet at 1-866-705-5711 if located within the United States; or

(ii) If located outside the United States, by contacting the local Dun and Bradstreet office. The contractor should indicate that it is a contractor for a U.S. Government contract when contacting the local Dun and Bradstreet office.

(f) The Contractor is responsible for the accuracy and completeness of the data within the SAM database, and for any liability resulting from the Government’s reliance on inaccurate or incomplete data. To remain registered in the SAM database after the initial registration, the Contractor is required to review and update on an annual basis from the date of initial registration or subsequent updates its information in the SAM database to ensure it is current, accurate and complete. Updating information in SAM does not alter the terms and conditions of this contract and is not a substitute for a properly executed contractual document.

(g)(1)(i) If a Contractor has legally changed its business name, “doing business as” name, or division name (whichever is shown on the contract), or has transferred the assets used in performing the contract, but has not completed the necessary requirements regarding novation and change-of-name agreements in Subpart 42.12, the Contractor shall provide the responsible Contracting Officer sufficient documentation to support the legally changed name of its intention to--

(2) The Contractor shall not change the name or address for EFT payments or manual payments, as appropriate, in the SAM record to reflect an assignee for the purpose of assignment of claims (see FAR Subpart 32.8, Assignment of Claims). Assignees shall be separately registered in the SAM database.

(h) Contractors may obtain information on registration and annual confirmation requirements via the SAM accessed through https://www.acquisition.gov or by calling 1-866-606-8220 or 334-206-7828 for international calls.
