HOURLY EVALUATIONS, IF QUALITY IS ASSURED. WHEN CONTINUOUS IN-LINE ANALYZERS ARE PRESENT IN THE SYSTEM, THE CONTRACTOR SHALL PROVIDE ITS QUALITY CONTROL PROCEDURES AT TIME OF

OFFER TO THE CONTRACTING OFFICER FOR DETERMINATION OF ACCEPTABILITY.

(4) TESTING FOR PARTICULATE CONTAMINATION SHALL BE REQUIRED BY THE GOVERNMENT IF VISUAL

EXAMINATION OF THE SAMPLE FAILS WORKMANSHIP FOR SEDIMENT/SUSPENDED MATTER.

(5) FOR FOB DESTINATION SHIPMENTS DESTINED FOR MULTIPLE LOCATIONS IN CLOSE PROXIMITY TO ONE

ANOTHER (WITHIN 24 HOURS SAILING TIME BETWEEN LOCATIONS) THE A-TYPE TESTING REQUIRED PRIOR TO DISCHARGE SHALL ONLY BE REQUIRED AT THE INITIAL DISCHARGE POINT, WITH ONLY C-TYPE TESTING REQUIRED PRIOR TO DISCHARGE AT SUBSEQUENT DISCHARGE POINTS. HOWEVER, IF CARGO INTEGIRTY CHANGES BETWEEN DISCHARGE POINTS, SUCH AS THROUGH CARGO TRANSFERS, CONTAMINATION, ETC., THEN A-TYPE TESTING SHALL BE REQUIRED AT THE NEXT DISCHARGE POINT. A COPY OF THE FULL SPECIFICATION TEST REPORT FOR THE VESSEL, AFTER LOADING, SHALL BE PROVIDED TO THE RECEIVING ACTIVITY AT EACH DISCHARGE POINT, PRIOR TO

DISCHARGE.

(6) COMPRISED OF ALL-LEVEL OR MULTI-LEVEL COMPOSITES FROM EACH COMPARTMENT.

(7) CONTRACTORS DELIVERING INTO THE GPSS,CEPS, NIPS, AND DFSP ATHENS (MOH) SHALL PERFORM FAME CONTENT TESTING IN ACCORDANCE WITH TEST METHOD IP 585 OR IP 590, AND REPORT THE RESULTS TO THE

DESTINATION CONSIGNEE PRIOR TO VESSEL ARRIVAL.

(8) A ONE LITER COMPOSITE SAMPLE OF EACH LOT OF PRODUCT SHALL BE TAKEN FROM A PREDETERMINED NUMBER OF RANDOMLY SELECTED DRUMS. THE TOTAL NUMBER OF DRUMS SAMPLED PER LOT SHALL, AT A MINIMUM, BE THAT CITED IN TABLE III OF API MPMS CHAPTER 8.1 (ASTM D 4057), BUT MAY BE INCREASED AT THE

GOVERNMENT’S OPTION.

(9) THE SIZE OF ALL THE SAMPLES REQUIRED IN THIS TABLE, EXCEPT FOR THOSE DESIGNATED “RETAIN ONLY”, SHALL BE DETERMINED BY THE CONTRACTOR AND SHALL BE OF SUFFICIENT QUANTITY TO PERFORM ALL THE TESTS REQUIRED BY THIS TABLE. THE SIZE REQUIREMENTS FOR RETAIN SAMPLES CAN BE FOUND IN TABLE II, SAMPLE

RETENTION.

(10) THE LOW POINT DRAIN/ BOTTOM LINE OPTION ONLY APPLIES TO TANK CAR AND TANK TRUCK SHIPMENTS OF FUEL – SHIPMENTS OF LUBRICATING OILS AND ADDITIVES MUST UTILIZE ALL-LEVEL SAMPLING PROCEDURES. IF INITIAL FUEL SAMPLES USING THE LOW POINT DRAIN/BOTTOM LINE OPTION ARE NOT CLEAR AND BRIGHT, ADDITIONAL SAMPLES SHALL BE TAKEN UNTIL A CLEAR AND BRIGHT SAMPLE IS OBTAINED.
