Channel Islands National Marine Sanctuary

A] GENERAL INFORMATION:

1] This Statement of Work contains the requirements for shipyard services on the NOAA Research Vessel Shearwater (R6201).

2] The general characteristics of the vessel are as follows:

Length: 62 feet Beam: 24 feet Draft: 6 feet Displacement: 41.3 tons

3] All work shall be accomplished at the Contractor’s facility. NOAA will deliver the vessel to the Contractor’s facility, and redelivery will also be at the Contractor’s facility. The required performance period for all work defined herein is Date of Award to November 30, 2021.

4] Coordination of the work schedules will be the responsibility of the Contractor to avoid any delays or disruptions in order to meet the performance period. The Contractor will provide all facilities, labor, materials, tools, and services required to complete the work UNLESS exceptions are noted in the specified tasks below.

5] Upon arrival at the Contractor’s facility the contractor shall accept full responsibility for the safety of the vessel, including but not limited to fire protection, security patrols, water-tight integrity, and protection from adverse environmental conditions, etc. This responsibility will terminate only after all work defined herein (or added during the work period) is complete, accepted by NOAA, and NOAA personnel remove the vessel from the Contractor’s facility.

6] NOAA employees and contractors may be working on board the vessel during the contract performance period on a not to interfere basis. During this time, it will be required that these personnel have full access to the vessel during normal working hours.

7] If the vessel is hauled from the water, the Contractor shall ensure that all machinery and equipment used for that purpose is fully functional, suitable for the task, rated for loads at least 20% greater than the maximum weight of the vessel, and operated by trained, competent personnel. The NOAA COTR will provide a docking plan for the vessel if requested.

8] The government reserves the right to award some or all tasks defined herein, and to add tasks during the work period so long as period of performance revisions, if any, are mutually agreed.

9] All work performed under this SOW (or added to it during the period of performance) will meet or exceed all current requirements of ABYC and USCG Subchapter-T as applicable to this size and type of vessel, in addition to any specific requirements stated below.

10] In the event defects or damage unrelated to the work tasks defined below are discovered, the Contractor shall submit a Condition Found Report (CFR) to attending NOAA staff. The CFR will define corrective actions needed, the cost for that work (separated into labor, materials, services, and total), and the impact to the performance period.

11] All welding required as part of the tasks defined below will be performed by certified welders working in accordance with approved weld procedures. Certifications and approvals by USCG, ABS, or another nationally recognized authority are acceptable, and copies of these will be presented to the NOAA representative before work begins.

12] Contractor shall demonstrate past performance in working with aluminum high speed catamaran vessels including aluminum welding.

B] SPECIFIC WORK TASKS

1] Remove existing dive compressor Remove the aft deck soft-patch and existing Bauer M11DV-E3 dive compressor. Remove all compressor piping, wiring, and controls that will not be reused for the replacement unit, and ensure any re-used piping and wiring is tagged, secured, and sealed to prevent exposure of dirt and water.

2] Clean installation area Clean the area under and around the removed compressor and inspect the area. If any defects in the structure or systems are found that require immediate repair, report those to attending NOAA staff in writing.

3] Provide and install new compressor Provide and install one each new and unused Bauer DMT08-E3 compressor that meets the following criteria:

a) 5000 PSI

b) 7.0 CFM capacity

c) 8.4 SCFM charge rate

d) 230VAC, 3-phase, 60 Hz

e) 1250 RPM motor

f) Inter-stage gauges

g) Automatic condensate drain

h) Vibration absorbing mounting feet

Include all wiring, piping, controls, lubricants, oils, and fittings required to allow full operation of the new unit. Ensure that the installation meet the compressor manufacturer’s requirements, specifically including the type of thread sealants used in all air-carrying pipe and fitting connections.

4] Provide and install cover Provide and install a removable cover for the new compressor to protect it from drips, spray, and incidental contact with personnel and portable equipment. Provide and install a frame or similar device to secure the cover. The existing cover and frame may be re-used if inspection indicates they are in adequate condition.

5] Test new compressor Test the new compressor in conjunction with attending NOAA staff. Ensure that the manufacturer’s procedures are used, and manufacturer’s performance criteria are attained, in all modes of use. Operate the compressor for a minimum of thirty minutes under no load and observe operation. Then fill six each empty dive tanks provided by NOAA crew to demonstrate performance under load. Once the compressor installation is complete, reinstall the soft-patch with suitable polyurethane sealant.

6] Documents Upon successful completion of testing, provide manufacturer-supplied manuals, drawings, wiring diagrams, and system schematics in hard-copy and/or electronic formats.

C] IT SECURITY REQUIREMENTS

The Certification and Accreditation (C&A) requirements of 48 CFR 1352.239-73 do not apply, and a Security Accreditation Package is not required. The contractor will not have access to any government owned IT equipment or be furnished government privileged information. However, the contractor will have full access to the vessel and all of its systems.

E] LOCATION

The contractor shall propose the location for repairs. The vessel is to be transported at sea by the government to and from the repair facility. The government shall asses the cost of $30/per Nautical Mile at sea from Santa Barbara Harbor, to and from the proposed repair facility in determining the lowest cost proposal. The government shall include the travel costs of a Santa Barbara-based NOAA representative in accordance with the JFTR (Joint Federal Travel Regulations) during the entire duration of repairs conducted greater than 50 miles from Santa Barbara to determine the lowest cost proposal.

F] PERIOD OF PERFORMANCE

Date of Award – November 30, 2021.

G] INVOICING

Copies of all invoices should be sent to the TPOC and COR listed in Sections H and I of this document.
