1.1 PRE-REMOVAL

1.1.1. PERMIT / SPECIAL REQUIREMENTS

a. The contractor shall, without additional expense to the Government, be responsible for paying all fees, preparing and obtaining any necessary licenses, permits, customs notifications (if applicable), other notifications, waste profiles, and/or reports, which result from a contractor’s transportation, recycling, or disposal decision.

Storage Disposal Recyling Facilities (TSDRF). All contractor signed waste profile sheets shall be written for the actual waste stream using the generator’s profile for backup documentation. The contractor shall be responsible for all damages to persons or properties that occur as a result of his fault or negligence.

b. No TSDRFs other than those submitted and approved for this contract shall be utilized. This shall also apply to unregulated wastes capable of being recycled unless alternate facilities are approved by the Contracting Officer (KO) after contract award. After contract award, the contractor may submit proposals for additional TSDRFs in accordance with Paragraph 4, (Additional TSDRF and Transporters) of this contract, however, the Government is under no obligation to approve the utilization of such facilities. All disposal, storage, transportation, chemical analysis and additional authorization costs required for the delivery of wastes/materials to facilities added to this contract, after award, will be prepared and performed by the contractor at no additional charge to Government.

c. The contractor may be required to attend any special required training, seminar, instruction, class provided by the Government in order to perform work or gain access to the installation. Example: Pass and ID requirements, Anti-Terrorism training, Fork Lift training.

d. For wastes disposed outside the country of origin, the contractor shall comply with all applicable environmental laws and regulations. This includes any requirements for transboundary shipment notification in accordance with the May 1989 Basel Convention on the Control of Trans-boundary Movements of Hazardous Waste and their Disposal. This includes, but is not limited to, any provisions governing the prior notification of competent authorities, transportation, temporary storage, identification, customs clearances, packaging, labeling, and disposal of hazardous waste and/or dangerous goods. Immediately upon contract award, the contractor shall prepare any documents and notifications required to move and dispose of all wastes listed in the contract.

1.1.2. SHIPPING DOCUMENTATION

a. All references to manifests in this provision relate to the “appropriate shipping paper”. In accordance with Japanese environmental regulations, the generator of the wastes (usually the Disposition Services Office) shall prepare the manifest. Prior to removal from a site identified as a pick-up point in this contract, completed copies of all Japan or local government manifests, or bills of lading, whichever is applicable, shall be furnished to the contractor. Each pick-up manifest and bills of lading (i.e., with a Government activity identified as a generator), as well as all other documentation required herein, shall be clearly and distinctly marked with the name of the servicing Disposition Services Office in addition to the generators and the contract and TO number, as applicable.

b. At the time of removal, any transportation and Japan or local government manifesting requirements established by the International Maritime Dangerous Goods (IMDG) Code, the May 1989 Basel convention on the Trans-boundary Movement of Hazardous Waste and their Disposal, must be completed and provided to the Contracting Officer’s Representative (COR) upon removal. The COR has the authority to decline the signing of any shipping papers for waste loads which are not in conformance with transportation or environmental regulations.

c. While performing under this contract, the contractor is required to provide his drivers with the appropriate emergency action instructions and any other documentation as required by Japan or local government and international transportation regulations, whichever may apply.

d. The contractor shall complete a DD Form 1155, Order for Supplies or Services, Attachment 08, for all items ordered or services performed on a TO. The contractor shall record the type of waste, quantities removed, waste codes, manifest numbers, and date removed. The contractor shall obtain the COR’s signature and date to verify the wastes removed.

1.1.3. NOTIFICATIONS

a. Except as may otherwise be specified herein, the contractor shall notify the COR or other Government representative for each location, at least five (5) business days BEFORE attempting site visits, sampling for analysis, or pick-ups.

(1) In addition to the notification above for pick-ups, the contractor shall provide the name of the driver, the driver’s Commercial Driver’s License (CDL) number and its expiration date to the COR or other Government representative at least 24-hours prior to removal. The contractor may also opt to provide a list of approved, multiple drivers designated for pick-ups under this specific contract to the COR or other Government representative prior to any attempted removals. If this option is elected and the list is approved by the Government and maintained by the contractor, the 24-hour notification requirement is inapplicable for the remainder of the contract unless otherwise modified.

(2) If a driver other than the one specified 24-hours in advance for the specific task order; or, one whose name does not appear on the optional list of approved, multiple drivers arrives for pick-up, the COR or other designated Government representative will verify the personnel switch with the prime contractor before the pick-up commences. This may require a written notice or fax from the prime contractor.

(3) The Government reserves the right to take appropriate action, such as the pursuit of monetary consideration and/or annotation of negative past performance if the contractor fails to meet the above applicable notification timeframes and/or a different driver, other than the individual previously identified under this notification requirement, or whose name does not appear on the approval list, and/or if multiple drivers arrive at the pick-up location(s).

b. For TO’s containing Expedited Removals, Services or Performance CLINs (J95030), the contractor shall notify the COR or other Government representative for each location BEFORE attempting site visits, sampling for analysis, or pick-ups: by at least (1) calendar day. In addition, the contractor is also required to provide the information identified in paragraph a.(1) above at least 24-hours prior to removal. If applicable, any removals ordered under a 24-hour or one business day expedited CLIN requires the contractor to provide the information identified in paragraph a.(1) at least four (4) hours prior to pick-ups if the contractor elects to provide the identity of the driver for each specific TO. If the contractor elects to provide the list of approved, multiple drivers designated for use under this contract, as in paragraph a.(1) above, this expedited notification is not required. All other terms and conditions stated elsewhere within this clause apply to any of the aforementioned Expedited Removal CLINs.

c. In the event the Government misidentifies a waste description on a TO the contractor has the responsibility to inform the COR as soon as the contractor becomes aware of the misidentification. The contractor shall provide lab analysis and other supporting documentation. The waste shall not be treated or disposed of until the Government has made a determination on the matter. Once a determination has been made, a task order modification will be issued with the correct CLIN which will allow the contractor to be paid the disposal price in accordance with the contract price of the actual waste removed.

1.1.4. TRAILER SECURITY, PADLOCKS

a. All contractor trailers and tankers capable of being padlocked must be padlocked upon arrival at the pick-up location. Failure to meet this requirement could result in the Government’s halting of the pick-up.

All trailers and tankers capable of being padlocked must also be padlocked again prior to departure of the pick-up location(s). The driver shall provide the padlock and lock the trailer or tanker without assistance from the COR or other Government representative(s).

b. The COR or other Government representative has the right to request any identification and/or occupational endorsements from the driver beyond what is identified in 1.1.3 in this contract and refuse commencement and/or completion of pick-ups if any unusual or suspicious actions occur. Any potential demurrage associated with the driver verification process and/or the unexpected halt or commencement of pick-ups will not be grounds for reimbursement by the Government.

1.2 REMOVAL

1.2.1. SPILL RESPONSIBILITY

a. The contractor is solely responsible for containment, cleanup and disposal of any and all spills, leaks, spill residue, and/or debris, and includes appropriate container packaging, labeling and documentation for shipment during the performance of this contract that occurs as a result of or is contributed to by the actions of its agents, employees, or subcontractors. The contractor agrees to clean up such spills to the satisfaction of the COR as outlined in 1.2.1.b., the site specific Spill Response Plan(s), and in accordance with applicable local laws and regulations at no cost to the Government.

b. The contractor shall report all such spills or leaks, regardless of their quantity, to the COR and KO immediately upon discovery.

c. Upon completion of the spill cleanup and disposal of the spill residue, the contractor shall submit a summary report of the spill incident to the COR and KO. The report shall include: cleanup and disposal procedures taken, outside assistance required (if any), personal injury follow-up, the names and telephone numbers of all national, regional, or local officials contacted during and after the spill incident, and if possible precautions taken to prevent the event from happening again.

1.2.2 SEGREGATION OF HAZARDOUS WASTE

All items collected on this contract must be segregated and kept physically separate from any other items until the initial disposal facility is reached. The items must be so marked that they are readily identified to this contract throughout this period.

1.2.3. STATEMENT ON CONTAINERS

The Government containerizes wastes in accordance with applicable US standards; however, the Government does not warrant that the drums or containers are suitable for transportation in accordance with Japanese local or international regulations for removal from the pick-up sites. The offeror is cautioned to ascertain and assess the need for over-packing or repackaging based on the site visit. The Government will not provide repackaging materials. The contractor will not be reimbursed separately for repackaging expenses and should include these charges in their disposal pricing. The contractor will be responsible for preparing all containers for transportation to a recycling/disposal facility in accordance with applicable Japanese regulations to assure safe arrival at destination without damage or loss. The contractor is required to use United Nations (UN) specification containers for all shipments of industrial and hazardous waste under this contract off the installation in accordance with the regulations that govern these materials; e.g., the Waste

Management Law (Waste Management and Public Cleansing Law), the Global Harmonization System, the International Maritime Dangerous (IMDG) Code, and other applicable regulations.

a. For the disposition of Government-owned containers the following applies:

(1) Contractor is responsible for removing all markings indicating Government ownership.

(2) Containers designated for re-use, the Government markings must be destroyed for permanent obliteration.

This includes removal of any stenciled markings and bar code labels.

b. Contractor will be responsible for repackaging any containers if the packaging integrity is compromised at or during pick-up to prevent leaking or contamination of the environment, transportation, and final disposition.

1.2.4. GOVERNMENT EQUIPMENT AND PERSONNEL

The contractor understands that the Government shall not furnish any equipment or personnel to assist in the performance of this contract. Any such offers of assistance are unauthorized, and the contractor shall not accept any such offers. The only exception is the use of Government owned loading equipment (paragraph 1.2.6), and Government owned scales (paragraph 1.2.7).

1.2.5. TREATMENT OF HAZARDOUS WASTE ON GOVERNMENT FACILITY

a. Treatment of hazardous waste (including solidification) on Government facilities is not permitted.

Treatment is defined as any process which meets the definition of treatment as set forth in applicable local Japanese laws and regulations.

b. Draining will be allowed only to prevent leaking and will meet Japanese regulations and local safety regulations.

c. Treatment, disposal, or release of gas to the atmosphere on Government premises is not permitted by this contract.

1.2.6. LOADING

Unless otherwise specified by the Government the contractor is responsible for loading including furnishing all the equipment necessary for loading. Loading will not be performed on Saturdays, Sundays, Federal holidays or any day that the installation where the items are located is closed, see Attachment 03. Where it is provided that the Government will load, the Government may only load open top conveyances-style trucks or trailers with a drop gate. Unless otherwise provided in the contract, the Government will not block, chock, brace, lash, band, or in any other manner secure the cargo on such conveyance(s) furnished by the contractor.

Locations where the Government may assist with loading are provided in Attachment 09.

1.2.7. WEIGHING OF PROPERTY

The contractor shall weigh all property before removal. An authorized Government representative will witness all weighing that occurs on site. The weight, agreed upon by both the contractor and the Government representative at the time of removal will be the basis for payment to the contractor. Unsubstantiated charges for subsequent increases in weight, after removal from Government custody, will be the responsibility of the contractor.
