SECTION C

Description/Specifications/Work Statement C.1 Precedence In accordance with Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) 52.215-8, any inconsistency in this solicitation or contract shall be resolved by giving precedence in the following order: (a) The Schedule (excluding the specifications); (b) Representations and other instructions; (c) Contract clauses; (d) Other documents, exhibits, and attachments; and (e) The specifications. Additionally, the terms and conditions of Sections A through K, including the Section J attachments, shall take precedence over any inconsistent provisions contained within portions of the Contractor’s proposal incorporated in or made exhibits to the Contract. Exceptions not specifically identified by the Contractor in its proposal in accordance with the requirements of Section L of the solicitation and expressly accepted by the Contracting Officer in writing shall not be deemed to be part of the Contract and shall not be binding on the Government.

C.2 Authority, Scope, and Program Goal

C.2.1 General The Government seeks to convey the utility system(s) identified in this solicitation, provided a favorable business case exists to do so. Subsequent to the Military Service’s decision to convey the utility system(s), the Government will enter into a contract to acquire the corresponding utility service(s) from the Contractor as the new owner of the system(s). The Government is requesting proposals for the purchase of the utility system(s) listed in Section B.1, Systems to be Privatized, and the provision of utility service(s) across the system(s). The Government will consider the purchase of commodities with the utility services offer(s) on a case-by-case basis.

C.2.2 Authority Utilities privatization consists of two transactions: 1) the conveyance of the utility infrastructure via a Bill of Sale; and 2) the acquisition of utility services on the privatized system(s) via a utility services contract. The conveyance of the utility system(s) is a property disposal action made in accordance with 10 U.S.C. § 2688 and is not covered under the FAR or this solicitation. The acquisition of utility services is a FAR Part 41 acquisition and will be governed by the FAR and its applicable supplements. Accordingly, proposals will be evaluated for selection of a prospective awardee under the provisions of the FAR and this solicitation. Once a prospective awardee is identified, that entity’s proposed price will be utilized by the Military Service to conduct a conveyance decision business case analysis in accordance with executive policy, including Office of Management and Budget (OMB), Department of Defense (DoD), and Military Service policies applicable to conveyances under 10 U.S.C. § 2688.

C.2.3 Scope The Government seeks a Contractor to assume ownership of the utility system(s) and infrastructure specified in Section B.1, Systems to be Privatized, and as the new owner, to operate and maintain the systems and provide utility services to the Government. Assumption of ownership will be in accordance with 10 U.S.C. § 2688. Provision of utility services shall be performed in accordance with all terms, conditions, and special contract requirements, specifications, attachments, exhibits, and drawings contained in this solicitation or incorporated by reference.

Offerors are not required to propose on all of the utility systems specified in the Schedule unless otherwise specified in the Section J Attachments. Proposals may be submitted on individual system(s) or on groups of systems on an all-or-none basis. The Government may consider any efficiencies gained and/or cost savings that may be achieved by awarding multiple systems to a single offeror. If an offeror submits a grouped proposal but also wants to be considered for award on any system on an individual basis, the offeror shall submit an alternate proposal(s), as necessary.

C.2.4 Program Goal The desired goal of the conveyance is to transfer all rights, title, and interest of the Government in and to the utility system(s) listed in the Schedule. Consequently, the Government will retain no reversionary interests in the utility system(s) sold, other than the terms regarding the repurchase option and rights of access. The transfer of title will be accomplished after contract award and full transfer is the intended and preferred consequence. The utility system(s) being sold includes equipment, fixtures, structures, and other improvements utilized in connection with the utility system(s), which will be more specifically described in the Bill of Sale. The divestiture will not include the real property upon, under, or around the utility system(s). The sale will be documented by a Bill of Sale, see sample at Reference JR1 to this RFP. In addition to the sale of the utility system identified in the Bill of Sale, the Government will also acquire utility services from the transferee.

C.2.5 Utility Systems Attachments are included in Section J for each utility system(s) listed in Section B.1, Systems to be Privatized, and are herein referred to as “utility-specific attachments.” The utility-specific attachments provide details and requirements specific to that utility system. Upon contract award(s), the appropriate attachments will be included in the contract and the others will be removed.

C.2.5.1 The property being sold in this action will be as described in the utility-specific attachments of the solicitation. The system will be sold in an “as is, where is” condition without any warranties, representations, or obligation on the part of the Government to make any alterations, repairs, or improvements. Any proposal that offers an alternative description of the property being sold may be deemed technically unacceptable.

C.3 Requirement

C.3.1 Utility Services Requirement Subject to the terms and conditions in this RFP, the Contractor (a.k.a. “System Owner”) shall furnish all necessary labor, management, supervision, permits, licenses, certifications, equipment, supplies, materials, transportation, and any other incidental items or services required for the complete ownership of and provision of utility services via these utility systems, including operation, maintenance, repair, upgrade, and improvement of the systems.

The Contractor shall provide reliable, resilient and efficient utility services to each Government or tenant connection within the service area (see Section C, Service Area) 24 hours each and every day. The Contractor shall be responsible for providing capital investments and all other resources required to own, maintain, and operate its utility system(s) in a safe and reliable condition, and to meet all the requirements listed herein.

Access to the utility system(s) will be as specified in Section C, Access to the Utility System.

C.3.2 Performance Standards The Contractor shall ensure adequate and dependable utility service(s) to all facilities and equipment served. Unless otherwise provided for in this contract, the Contractor shall provide utility service(s) in accordance with industry-standard construction, operations, maintenance, management, environmental, safety, and other relevant standards, that apply to similarly situated utility services providers serving customers whose service characteristics are comparable to the service characteristics of the Installation. The Contractor shall be liable for default unless nonperformance is caused by an occurrence beyond the reasonable control of the Contractor and without its fault or negligence such as, acts of God or the public enemy, acts of the Government in its sovereign or contractual capacity, fires, floods, epidemics, quarantine restrictions, strikes, and unusually severe weather. The Contractor shall notify the Contracting Officer in writing as soon as it is reasonably possible after the commencement of any excusable delay, setting forth the full particulars in connection therewith, shall remedy such occurrence with all reasonable dispatch, and shall promptly give written notice to the Contracting Officer of the cessation of such occurrence.

Services provided shall comply with all applicable federal, state, and local laws/regulations and any Installation specific requirements set forth in the utility-specific attachments, as they may be amended from time to time, including those requirements relating to health, safety, and the environment. The Contractor shall modify its service practice as necessary to accomplish such compliance. Unless otherwise specified in the utility-specific attachments, the Contractor is not required to comply with Unified Facilities Criteria (UFCs), as the resultant utility infrastructure installed by the Contractor will not result in Government ownership. In the event that utility assets owned by the Government beyond the contractual point of demarcation require work to mitigate an emergency relating to health, safety, and the environment or otherwise jeopardize the Contractor’s applicable permit compliance, the Contracting Officer may authorize the Contractor to complete necessary work to address the emergency and/or ensure compliance with all applicable federal, state, and local laws/regulations.

If a change in the service requirement necessitated by compliance with later imposed/modified laws and regulations or Installation requirements constitutes reasonable cause for an adjustment to the service charge, the charge will be adjusted in accordance with either FAR 52.243-1, Changes - Fixed-Price-Alt 1, FAR 52.241-7, Change in Rates or Terms and Conditions of Service for Regulated Services, or FAR 52.241-8, Change in Rates or Terms and Conditions of Service for Unregulated Services, as applicable (hereinafter the “Changes clause”).

C.3.3 Sub-Metering The Contractor shall be responsible for reading, maintaining, and calibrating all sub-meters on the privatized utility system(s), as identified in the utility-specific attachments. The Government will use sub-meters for internal installation billing purposes, commodity management, and energy conservation purposes. Meter reading reports shall be submitted to the recipient identified in the utility-specific attachments.

All costs for providing, installing, reading, reporting, and maintaining the existing and additional meters shall be the responsibility of the Contractor.

C.3.3.1 Future Sub-Meters The Contractor shall provide, install, read, maintain, and calibrate sub-meters requested by the Government for any purpose throughout the contract period. Government-approved installation of and responsibility for future sub-meters (not on the system at the time of sale or identified for installation as part of the contract) may constitute reasonable cause for an initial installation charge and a utility services charge adjustment in accordance with Section G, Price Adjustments.

C.3.4 Energy and/or Water Efficiencies and Conservation, Renewable Energy Generation, Energy Security, Resilience and New and Emerging Technologies The Government may award additional efficiency, conservation, renewable energy, resilience or energy security projects. Future projects identified by the Contractor shall be proposed to the Government in accordance with Section C, SDCs/Upgrades/Connections and Renewals and Replacements. The Government may consider cost-savings sharing and incentives either through utility services charge adjustments or lump-sum payments.

C.3.4.1 Energy Security and Conservation Projects The Government may enter into energy-security projects with the Contractor or other entities.

Energy Security projects may include, but are not limited to, renewable projects, resiliency projects, microgrids, system-redundancy projects for critical infrastructure, and auxiliary or emergency generation. The Contractor shall facilitate interconnection of these projects, where the Government or a third party is the owner/operator of any such generation assets. The Contractor agrees to take no action regarding these projects without the prior approval of the Contracting Officer. The utility-specific attachments identify any such projects that are currently in place for the specific utility system. Projects implemented by the Government that will require changes in the privatized system shall be coordinated between the parties prior to implementation.

C.3.4.2 Future Conservation and Renewable Projects The Contractor shall strive to provide energy and /or water efficient systems. The Government may award future projects relating to new and emergent technologies, including, but not limited to, renewable projects, resiliency projects, microgrids or system-redundancy projects with either the System Owner or a third party. Future energy projects awarded by the Government that require changes to the privatized system shall be coordinated between the parties prior to implementation.

In addition, the Contractor will facilitate interconnection of new or existing renewable energy generation assets that are located on the installation, where the Government or a third party is the owner/operator of any such generation assets.

C.3.5 Commodity Supply Electric, natural gas, and water commodity supply is not included in this contract, even if any production facilities are included as part of the system to be conveyed. The Government retains the right to procure or supply any commodity that will be transported on the system(s) covered by this contract from any source, including the Contractor if the Contractor proposes to supply the commodity via an alternate proposal. In accordance with FAR 41.101, natural or manufactured gas cannot be procured under this solicitation.

Offerors may submit an alternate proposal that includes the supply of commodities (See Section L, Alternate Proposals and Exceptions to Terms and Conditions). Such proposals will be considered on a case-by-case basis. The Government will remain the customer of record and retain ownership of all commodities transported and distributed through the Contractor-owned systems unless otherwise provided in the contract.

Such access is subject to the general supervision and control of the Installation Commander, U.S. Army Garrison-Hawaii, Island of Oahu, and his / her duly authorized representatives. In accepting the rights, privileges, and obligations established hereunder, the Contractor recognizes that U.S. Army Garrison-Hawaii, Island of Oahu (the “Installation”) serves the national defense and that the Government will not permit the operation, construction, installation, repair, and maintenance of a utility system and the provision of utility services to interfere with the Installation's military mission or the national defense.

Access to the Contractor-owned above-ground and underground lines/pipes under this Contract shall be a total of thirty (30) feet in width fifteen (15) feet on each side of the lines/pipes). The access to utility systems containing operational components of the Contractor-owned system shall include the area inside the fence line that encloses the area and an area of four (4) feet outside the perimeter of the fence line. The Contractor is also provided access to all areas/facilities associated with facilities, lines and pipes covered by this Contract for purposes of performing the Utilities Privatization contract as directed by the Government under this Contract.

If the Contractor is denied access to the system, due to circumstances beyond its control or negligence, its obligations and liabilities under this Agreement will be suspended if such a deficient condition would not have occurred but for its inability to gain access to the utility system and was not the result of previous deficiencies in performance.

C.6.2 Contractor’s Right to Access the Utility System This Installation is an operating military installation that is closed to the public and is subject to the provisions of the Internal Security Act of 1950, 50 U.S.C. § 797, and of 18 U.S.C. § 1382.

Access to the Installation is subject to the control of its Installation Commander and is governed by such regulations and orders as have been lawfully promulgated or approved by the Secretary of Defense or by any designated military commander. Access by the Contractor, its officers, employees, contractors of any tier, agents, and invitees is subject to such regulations and orders.

Contractor access to the utility system, as provided in this Section, is subject to all regulations and orders currently promulgated or which may be promulgated by lawful authority as well as all other conditions contained herein. Such regulations and orders may, by way of example and not by way of limitation, include restrictions on who may enter, how many may enter at any one time, when they may enter, and what areas of the Installation they may visit, as well as requirements for background investigations, including those for security clearances, of those entering. The Contractor is responsible for the actions of its officers, employees, contractors of any tier, agents, and invitees while on the Installation and acting under this Contract.

In the event Contractor access to the utility system is either prohibited or curtailed by the Government or in the event the presence of the Contractor’s property shall be considered detrimental to governmental activities, the Contractor shall, from time-to-time and upon notice to do so, and as often as so notified, remove or relocate its property to such other location or locations on the Installation as may be required by the Contracting Officer or authorized representative, and in the event the Contractor’s property shall not be removed or relocated within 90 days after any aforesaid notice, the Government may cause the same to be done. Any removal or relocation of the Contractor’s property at the direction of the Government under this Section shall be at the Government’s expense.
