c.. All equipment shall be in full accordance with any local, State, and county regulations.

3.8 PUMPING PROCEDURES WHEN AN OUTSIDE VAULT COVER IS AVAILABLE

a. As long as the outside pump out access is not covered or blocked by snow or ice, the Contractor shall not be allowed to remove the vault contents through the toilet riser.

After removing the vault cover the waste shall be stirred to mix the solids with the liquids to allow for the most waste removal.

b. Waste shall be removed from the downhill sloped section of the vault, to a depth of no more than three (3”) inches.

c. Clean up and disinfect all contaminated areas resulting from the pumping process. Either sweep or wash all waste that is deposited on the concrete surrounding the vault cover, back into the vault if possible. The waste that runs off the edge of the concrete, onto the dirt or into the gravel edge, will be an attractant for flies, a potential health risk and an odor problem. This problem should be avoided.

c. The toilet paper dispenser shall be covered with a waterproof material prior to pumping, in order to prevent the paper from getting contaminated.

Again, every effort shall be made to sweep or wash the spilled waste back into the vault. The Contractor shall not allow the spilled waste to washed or swept out through the front door because the waste will collect at the edge of the concrete and the dirt (or gravel) and will become an attractant for flies, and an odor problem.

e. Remove the waterproof covering that was protecting the toilet paper and make sure the paper did not get contaminated. If the paper did get contaminated, the Contractor shall notify the COR.

f. Each unit shall be available for immediate use after the pumping and final cleanup. The Contractor shall not leave any toilet location until final cleanup is accomplished.

(6) DESIGNATION OF CONTRACTING OFFICER REPRESENTATIVE

The Contracting Officer designates the Contracting Officer's Representative (COR).The COR is responsible for administering the performance of work under this contract. In no event, however, will any understanding, agreement, modification, change order, or other matter deviating from the terms of this contract be effective or binding upon the Government unless formalized by proper contractual documents executed by the Contracting Officer prior to completion of the contract. The Contracting Officer should be informed as soon as possible of any actions or inactions by the Contractor or the Government, which will change the required delivery or completion times stated in the contract, and the contract will be modified accordingly. (This does not apply to individual task assignments which were issued by the COR provided they do not affect the delivery schedule or performance period stated in the contract.)On all matters that pertain to the contract terms the Contractor must communicate with the Contracting Officer. Whenever, in the opinion of the Contractor, the COR requests effort outside the scope of the contract, the Contractor should so advise the COR. If the COR persists and there still exists a disagreement as to proper contractual coverage, the Contracting Officer should be notified immediately, preferably in writing if time permits. Proceeding with work without proper contractual coverage could result in nonpayment or necessitate submittal of a contract claim.

(7) PUBLIC OFFICIALS NOT PERSONALLY LIABLE

There shall be no personal liability upon the Contracting Officer or officer in charge, their agents or employees, for any act performed in the discharge of any duty imposed or the exercise of any power or authority conferred upon them, by, or with the scope of the contract, it being understood that in all such matters they act solely as agents and representatives of the Government.
