(a) On items calling for delivery f.o.b. destination by means of barge--

(1) The supplies ordered hereunder shall be delivered, all transportation charges paid, to the destination specified in the Schedule. Unless otherwise specified in the Schedule, orders placed under items of the Schedule calling for delivery f.o.b. destination by means of barge will be furnished the Contractor at least 24 hours, plus the normal barge running time from point of loading to the destination, in advance of the date on which delivery is to be made, which date is hereinafter referred to in this contract provision as the "scheduled delivery date." Each order will specify the quantity to be delivered and the scheduled delivery date. The scheduled delivery date may be changed by the Contractor at any time if the Ordering Officer approves.

(2) Within 3 hours after receipt of notice by the receiving activity from the Master or Mate of a tug or of a self-propelled barge of readiness to unload, the Government will provide, free of cost, a reachable safe berth for the tug and tow or self-propelled barge to be afloat at all times at the unloading port: PROVIDED, however, that if the receiving activity does not receive notice of a barge's readiness to unload within 24 hours before or after noon of the latest approved scheduled delivery date, the Government will be allowed 12 hours after receipt of notice within which to provide a berth.

(3) Unless otherwise provided in the Schedule, the Government shall be allowed and will complete unloading within laytime determined as follows: See Special Provisions paragraphs “j” & “g” for the Eastern Portion and paragraphs “t” & “q” for the Western Portion; PROVIDED, however, that if the condition or facilities of the barge to be unloaded do not permit unloading within the number of hours so determined, such allowed laytime shall be increased by a number of hours sufficient to permit the unloading of the barge; PROVIDED, further, that when the barge is delayed in reaching its berth within 3 hours or 12 hours, as the case may be, from the time notice of readiness to unload is given, and the delay is caused by the fault of the barge, such allowed laytime shall be increased by the duration of such delay; and PROVIDED, further, that if regulations of the owner or operator of the barge or Port Authorities prohibit unloading at any time, time so lost shall be added to the amount of such allowed laytime. Laytime shall commence either--

(i) At the expiration of the notice period prescribed by (2) above (the 3 hours' or the 12 hours' notice, as the case may be), berth or no berth; or

(ii) Immediately upon the barge's arrival in berth (i.e., all fast), with or without notice of readiness, whichever first occurs. Laytime shall continue 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, without interruption from its commencement, until unloading of the barge is completed and the hoses have been disconnected.

(4) For all hours of laytime that elapse in excess of the allowed laytime for unloading provided for by paragraph (3) above, or as otherwise provided for in the Schedule, demurrage will be paid by the Government at the demurrage rate in the charter for the barge unloading, except (i) that such rate shall be reduced by 1/2 if demurrage is incurred due to causes beyond the control and without the fault and negligence of the Government; and (ii) that the demurrage payable by the Government shall in no event exceed the actual demurrage expense incurred by the Contractor

SOURCE SELECTION INFORMATION – SEE FAR 2.101 AND 3.104

under the charter. For purposes of computing demurrage payable by the Government, if the laytime allowed in the charter is a combined total for both loading and discharging, 1/2 thereof shall be allocated to the unloading operation, except when less than a full cargo is unloaded, where such allocation shall be determined on a pro-rata basis. See Notes at “j””2” & “t””2”

(5) In the event of breakdown of Contractor's equipment, which will prohibit unloading for at least two hours, the Contractor will be required to remove the equipment from the Government-provided berth, unless permission is granted by the Government to allow the equipment to remain on berth. When the Government grants permission for the Contractor equipment to remain on berth, the Contractor will be responsible to reimburse the Government for any cost incurred by the Government for furnishing personnel to remain with the barge during repair; PROVIDED further, that if the Contractor removes the equipment from the Government provided berth, notice of readiness to unload will be again required as provided in (2) above.

(6) For all deliveries, hoses for unloading a barge will be furnished, connected, and disconnected by the Government.

(7) Title to the supplies delivered, and risk of loss thereof, shall pass from the Contractor to the Government when the supplies pass the permanent hose connections of the barge unloading the supplies.

(8) The term barge, as used herein, shall include lake tankers.

(iii) The Government will evaluate offers in accordance with the policies and procedures of FAR Part 25.

(h) Certification Regarding Responsibility Matters (Executive Order 12689). (Applies only if the contract value is expected to exceed the simplified acquisition threshold.) The offeror certifies, to the best of its knowledge and belief, that the offeror and/or any of its principals--

(1) [_] Are, [_] are not presently debarred, suspended, proposed for debarment, or declared ineligible for the award of contracts by any Federal agency;

(2) [_] Have, [_] have not, within a three-year period preceding this offer, been convicted of or had a civil judgment rendered against them for: commission of fraud or a criminal offense in connection with obtaining, attempting to obtain, or performing a Federal, state or local government contract or subcontract; violation of Federal or state antitrust statutes relating to the submission of offers; or commission of embezzlement, theft, forgery, bribery, falsification or destruction of records, making false statements, tax evasion, violating Federal criminal tax laws, or receiving stolen property; and

(3) [_] Are, [_] are not presently indicted for, or otherwise criminally or civilly charged by a Government entity with, commission of any of these offenses enumerated in paragraph (h)(2) of this clause; and

(4) [_] Have, [_] have not, within a three-year period preceding this offer, been notified of any delinquent Federal taxes in an amount that exceeds $3,000 for which the liability remains unsatisfied.

(i) Taxes are considered delinquent if both of the following criteria apply:

(A) The tax liability is finally determined. The liability is finally determined if it has been assessed. A liability is not finally determined if there is a pending administrative or judicial challenge. In the case of a judicial challenge to the liability, the liability is not finally determined until all judicial appeal rights have been exhausted.

(B) The taxpayer is delinquent in making payment. A taxpayer is delinquent if the taxpayer has failed to pay the tax liability when full payment was due and required. A taxpayer is not delinquent in cases where enforced collection action is precluded.

(ii) Examples.

(A) The taxpayer has received a statutory notice of deficiency, under I.R.C. §6212, which entitles the taxpayer to seek Tax Court review of a proposed tax deficiency. This is not a delinquent tax because it is not a final tax liability. Should the taxpayer seek Tax Court review, this will not be a final tax liability until the taxpayer has exercised all judicial appear rights.

(B) The IRS has filed a notice of Federal tax lien with respect to an assessed tax liability, and the taxpayer has been issued a notice under I.R.C. §6320 entitling the taxpayer to request a hearing with the IRS Office of Appeals Contesting the lien filing, and to further appeal to the Tax Court if the IRS determines to sustain the lien filing. In the course of the hearing, the taxpayer is entitled to contest the underlying tax liability because the taxpayer has had no prior opportunity to contest the liability. This is not a delinquent tax because it is not a final tax liability. Should the taxpayer seek tax court review, this will not be a final tax liability until the taxpayer has exercised all judicial appeal rights.

SOURCE SELECTION INFORMATION – SEE FAR 2.101 AND 3.104

(C) The taxpayer has entered into an installment agreement pursuant to I.R.C. §6159. The taxpayer is making timely payments and is in full compliance with the agreement terms. The taxpayer is not delinquent because the taxpayer is not currently required to make full payment.

(D) The taxpayer has filed for bankruptcy protection. The taxpayer is not delinquent because enforced collection action is stayed under 11 U.S.C. §362 (the Bankruptcy Code).

(i) Certification Regarding Knowledge of Child Labor for Listed End Products (Executive Order 13126).
