CONTRACT ADMINISTRATION DATA
The following local clauses are provided in full text:
CONTRACTOR PERFORMANCE ASSESSMENT REPORTING SYSTEM (JULY 2010)
(a) FAR 42.1502 directs all Federal agencies to collect past performance information on contracts. The Department of the Interior (DOI) has implemented the Contractor Performance Assessment Reporting System (CPARS) to comply with this regulation. One or more past performance evaluations will be conducted in order to record your contract performance as required by FAR42.15.
(b) The past performance evaluation process is a totally paperless process using CPARS. CPARS is a web-based system that allows for electronic processing of the performance evaluation report. Once the report is processed, it is available in the Past Performance Information Retrieval System (PPIRS) for Government use in evaluating past performance as part of a source selection action.
(c) We request that you furnish the Contracting Officer with the name, position title, phone number, and email address for each person designated to have access to your firm's past performance evaluation(s) for the contract no later than 30 days after award. Each person granted access will have the ability to provide comments in the Contractor portion of the report and state whether or not the Contractor agrees with the evaluation, before returning the report to the Assessing Official. The report information must be protected as source selection sensitive information not releasable to the public.
(d) When your Contractor Representative(s) (Past Performance Points of Contact) are registered in CPARS, they will receive an automatically-generated email with detailed login instructions. Further details, systems requirements, and training information for CPARS is available at https://www.cpars.gov/. The CPARS User Manual, registration for On Line Training for Contractor Representatives, and a practice application may be found at this site.
(e) Within 60 days after the end of a performance period, the Contracting Officer will complete an interim or final past performance evaluation, and the report will be accessible at https://www.cpars.gov/. Contractor Representatives may then provide comments in response to the evaluation, or return the evaluation without comment. Comments are limited to the space provided in Block 22. Your comments should focus on objective facts in the Assessing Official's narrative and should provide your views on the causes and ramifications of the assessed performance. In addition to the ratings and supporting narratives, blocks 1 - 17 should be reviewed for accuracy, as these include key fields that will be used by the Government to identify your firm in future source selection actions. If you elect not to provide comments, please acknowledge receipt of the evaluation by indicating ''No comment" in Block 22, and then signing and dating Block 23 of the form. Without a statement in Block 22, you will be unable to sign and submit the evaluation back to the Government. If you do not sign and submit the CPAR within 30 days, it will automatically be returned to the Government and will be annotated: "The report was delivered/received by the contractor on (date). The contractor neither signed nor offered comment in response to this assessment." Your response is due within 30 calendar days after receipt of the CPAR.
(f) The following guidelines apply concerning your use of the past performance evaluation:
(1) Protect the evaluation as "source selection information." After review, transmit the evaluation by completing and submitting the form through CPARS. If for some reason you are unable to view and/or submit the form through CPARS, contact the Contracting Officer for instructions.
(2) Strictly control access to the evaluation within your organization. Ensure the evaluation is never released to persons or entities outside of your control.
BLM LAKEVIEW DISTRICT Page 13 of 59
(3) Prohibit the use of or reference to evaluation data for advertising, promotional material, preaward surveys, responsibility determinations, production readiness reviews, or other similar purposes.
(g) If you wish to discuss a past performance evaluation, you should request a meeting in writing to the Contracting Officer no later than seven days following your receipt of the evaluation. The meeting will be held in person or via telephone or other means during your 30- day review period.
(h) A copy of the completed past performance evaluation will be available in CPARS for your viewing and for Government use supporting source selection actions after it has been finalized.
(End of clause)
ELECTRONIC INVOICING AND PAYMENT REQUIREMENTS – INVOICE PROCESSING PLATFORM (IPP)
(APR 2013)
Payment requests must be submitted electronically through the U.S. Department of the Treasury’s Invoice Processing Platform System (IPP).
“Payment request” means any request for contract financing payment or invoice payment by the Contractor. To constitute a proper invoice, the payment request must comply with the requirements identified in the applicable Prompt Payment clause included in the contract, or the clause 52.212-4 Contract Terms and Conditions – Commercial Products and Commercial Services included in commercial products and commercial services contracts. The IPP website address is: https://www.ipp.gov.
Under this contract, the following documents are required to be submitted as an attachment to the IPP invoice:
1. Invoice billed according to contract line items and rates.
The Contractor must use the IPP website to register access and use IPP for submitting requests for payment. The Contractor Government Business Point of Contract (as listed in SAM) will receive enrollment instructions via email from the Federal Reserve Bank of Boston (FRBB) prior to the contract award date, but no more than 3 – 5 business days of the contract award date. Contractor assistance with enrollment can be obtained by contacting the IPP Production Helpdesk via email ippgroup@bos.frb.org or phone (866) 973-3131.

3.1 Environmental - The Contracting Officer, by issuance of a suspend work order, may direct the Contractor to shut down any work that may be subject to damage due to weather conditions, fire danger, or because it is impracticable to work during the winter season. The Contractor will be given a resume work order which will document the date the work suspension ends. An allowance has been included in the contract time for all environmental delays. The count of contract time will therefore continue during all periods of suspension due to normal weather conditions, including fire danger. The Contractor will not be entitled to additional contract time for any suspensions except to the extent that they are due to unusually severe weather conditions. The Contractor will not be entitled to additional monetary compensation for such suspensions regardless of duration.
3.2 Endangered Species - The Government may direct the Contractor to discontinue all operations in the event that listed or proposed threatened or endangered plants or animals protected under the Endangered Species Act of 1973, as amended, or Federal candidate (Category 1 and 2), sensitive or state listed species, identified under BLM Manual 6840, are discovered to be present in or adjacent to the project area.
4.0 PRESERVATION OF HISTORICAL AND ARCHEOLOGICAL DATA
4.1 Public Law 93-291, May 24, 1974, provides for the preservation of scientific, prehistorical, and archeological data (including relics and specimens) which might otherwise be lost due to alteration of the terrain as a result of any Federal construction project.
4.2 The Contractor agrees that should any contractor employee, in the performance of this contract, discover evidence of possible scientific, prehistorical, historical, or archeological data the contractor will notify the Contracting Officer immediately in writing giving the location and nature of the findings.
4.3 Where appropriate by reason of discovery, the Contracting Officer may order delays in the time of performance and/or changes in the work. If such delays and/or changes are ordered, the time of performance and contract price shall be adjusted in accordance with the applicable clauses in the Contract Clauses Section of this contract.

Sec 7401 ET SEQ);
the Endangered Species Act, as amended (16 U.S.C. Sec 1531, ET SEQ); the Toxic Substances Control Act, as amended (15 U.S.C. Sec 2601, ET SEQ); the National Historic Preservation Act, as amended (16 U.S.C. Sec 470, ET SEQ); the Solid Waste Disposal Act, as amended (42 U.S.C. 6901 ET SEQ); and the

6.0 HAZARDOUS MATERIALS
Any material suspected of being hazardous that is encountered during performance of a project shall immediately be brought to the attention of the Contracting Officer, at which time a determination will be made as to whether hazardous material testing shall be performed. If the Contracting Officer directs the contractor to perform tests, and/or the material is found to be of a hazardous nature requiring additional protective measures, a contract modification may be required, subject to equitable adjustment under the terms of the contract. The contractor is advised that friable and/or non-friable asbestos-containing material may be encountered in project areas. Friable asbestos-containing material is any material that contains more than one percent asbestos by weight, and that hand pressure can crumble, pulverize or reduce to powder when dry. Non-friable asbestos containing materials are materials in which asbestos fibers are bound by a matrix material, saturation, impregnation or coating.
Non-friable asbestos-containing materials do not normally release airborne asbestos fiber during routine handling and end-use. However, excessive fiber concentrations may be produced during uncontrolled abrading, sanding, drilling, cutting, machining, removal, demolition, or other similar activities. 29 CFR
1910.1001 shall be referenced in the event asbestos-containing materials are encountered. Friable asbestos-containing materials are not authorized for use in new construction or maintenance projects.

The following clause is provided in full text:
FIRE REQUIREMENTS PROCEDURES OUTLINE
This outline covers the fire protection requirements of a contractor or private party who performs service or construction contracts on BLM land. In western Oregon, the BLM allows Oregon Forest Law (ORS) and Oregon Administrative Rules (OAR) to apply to these operations on BLM lands rather than develop similar rules applicable only to BLM lands.
1. CLOSED FIRE SEASON
The closed fire season means that fire season has been declared. ORS 477.505 gives the State Forester the authority to establish the fire season. The authority has been delegated to the District Foresters around the state who issue public notices through the newspapers and radio when fire season will be closed for their individual districts.
Closed fire season depends upon the drying of forest fuels, rainfall, and time of year. During the closed fire season, the following requirements must be met:
Fire tools must be on site;
Fire extinguisher must be in all vehicles;
Chainsaws must have a .023-inch mesh screen installed in the exhaust;
Only unmodified saws are to be used in the forest;
Approved spark arresters must be on all internal combustion engines;
Watchman service must be provided for 3 hrs after shutdown of power equipment for the day;
No smoking is permitted while working or traveling through any operations area in the forest;
No use of explosives is permitted unless approved by the State Forester's representative;
Permits to burn are required unless waived by a representative of the State Forester.
Permits to operate power-driven machinery shall be obtained by the Contractor prior to commencing operations unless waived by a representative of the State Forester (ORS 47.625).
Changes or modifications to the above requirements are possible depending upon changes in State of Oregon law and requirements of the State Districts and Protective Associations.
BLM LAKEVIEW DISTRICT Page 17 of 59
2. FIRE PRECAUTION LEVELS
There are 4 fire precaution levels that begin with level 1 at the start of the closed fire season and can go through level 4 if conditions warrant. The fire precaution levels restrict certain forest operations as the fire danger increases.
It is the responsibility of the individual operating on forest land to know the precaution level for the day and take the correct fire precautions. There are no precaution levels prior to the closed fire season. Each fire precaution level requires adherence to the restrictions applicable to all lower levels in addition to the limits placed by that level.
Level 1 is the lowest level of fire danger usually occurring early in the season and perhaps again after significant rainfall during the season. All requirements listed above apply. Waivers may be issued by the State Districts or Protective Associations and these MUST be approved by the BLM. Waivers will only be considered if the conditions on the work site are not as severe as predicted. The requirements for fire tools on site, screens installed in saws, and fire extinguishers with saws will not be waived.
Level 2 is the partial hootowl where saws can operate from first light in the morning until 1:00 p.m. in the afternoon.
From 1:00 p.m. until the end of the day saws are to be shut down. Waivers for operating beyond the 1:00 p.m.
shutdown will be evaluated on a site-by-site basis.
Level 3 is the partial shutdown of all forest industrial operations and shuts down contractor operations with few exceptions. Waivers may be issued on a site-by-site basis.
Level 4 is the general shutdown of all contractor operations. Waivers will not be issued. Landowners are permitted entry into their lands.
ORS. 477.066 requires that an operator on forest land take immediate action to control and extinguish a fire on forest land. The contractor shall take this action and notify the BLM and the nearest State of Oregon District office immediately.
OAR. 629-43-030 requires watchmen to be:
Physically capable and experienced in operating any firefighting equipment on site.
On duty for 3 hours after the shutdown of the last power-driven equipment for the day.
Furnished adequate facilities for transportation and communications in order to summon assistance if needed.
Patrolling and visually inspecting all sites where work was done during the day.
3. FIRE TOOLS REQUIRED DURING CLOSED FIRE SEASON
The operator/contractor shall furnish fire tools to all personnel on site using the following combinations.
NUMBER OF PERSONNEL_______________________________
1- 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14
KIND OF TOOLS NUMBER OF TOOLS REQUIRED_________________________
Pulaskis 1 1 1 1 1 1 2 2 2 2 2
Shovels 2 2 2 3 3 3 3 4 4 5 5
Hazel hoes 1 2 3 3 4 5 5 5 6 6 6
In addition to the above handtools, the operator/contractor must provide a backpack pump can filled with water located with the tool box in a readily available area.
All shovels are to be size 0 or larger, long handled. All tools shall be sharp and ready for service. Fire extinguishers as follows:
For chainsaws - 8 oz. capacity by weight.
For vehicles - UL rating of at least 4 BC.

4. ADDITIONAL WATER SUPPLY
Contractor shall comply with ORS 477.615 during fire season when inside or within one-eighth of one mile of a state forest protection district and furnish additional water supply and equipment for use in fire suppression in conformity with the rules promulgated by the Oregon State Forester, when directed by the Oregon State Forester in writing. When required, all water supply and equipment components shall be maintained and ready for immediate use.
During fire season when operating a stationary internal combustion engine inside or within one eighth of one mile of a state forest protection district, Contractor shall comply with ORS 477.650 and provide a water supply, with equipment for its use in fire suppression for each engine, in conformity with the rules promulgated by the Oregon State Forester.
