C16.23 FUEL, NAVAL DISTILLATE (F-76) (DLA ENERGY DEC 2014)

a) ENVIRONMENTAL: In delivering supplies and services under this contract, the Contractor shall conform to all

Federal, State, and local environmental requirements applicable to the geographic location of the receiving activity on the date of delivery. The Contractor shall also comply with all applicable International Agreements, Treaties, Conventions, and the like to which the United States is a signatory or with whose terms the receiving activity has otherwise agreed to comply, including but not limited to, the requirements of MARPOL 73/78, Annex VI Regulations

14 & 18. The Contractor shall be responsible for determining the existence of all such requirements prior to the time deliveries are made.

1) In the event that an International, Federal, State, and / or local environmental requirement, as identified above, is more stringent than a requirement contained in this contract, the Contractor shall deliver product(s) that complies with the more stringent requirement. Product(s) that fails to meet the more stringent requirement will be considered nonconforming supply. Product(s) to be supplied shall fully meet the requirements of the applicable specification(s). In the event that compliance with the more stringent requirement causes the contractor to incur additional costs, the contractor may request an equitable adjustment.

2) Unless otherwise indicated by the Contractor in writing, prior to award, the product offered shall be required to fully meet all applicable specifications. The supplier shall provide to the receiving vessel a “Statutory Sample” of at least

400-mL in volume, taken from the receiving vessel’s inlet bunker manifold, together with a Bunker Delivery Note

(BDN). This sample will be sealed and carry a sample tag that provides the documentation required per MARPOL

73/78, Annex VI Regulation 18.

b) SPECIFICATION: Military specification MIL-DTL-16884N applies.

c) SPECIFICATION MODIFICATIONS: Flash Point: All batches of F-76 that are presented for Government acceptance at origin and for shipment through a multiproduct pipeline shall meet a minimum flash point requirement of 62.5 degrees Celsius.

d) MATERIALS: The F-76 supplied under this contract shall not contain un-hydrotreated light cycle oils or contain any stabilizer additives, or any other additive or material not explicitly allowed per section 3.2 of MIL-DTL-16884N.

e) TRACEABILITY:

1) F-76 fuel supplied under this contract shall maintain traceability with respect to additives and materials, which is defined as the ability to trace the individual batch of fuel back to the original point of manufacture through documentation.

2) For all F-76 supplied, the documentation shall contain a statement attesting to the materials composition, which includes materials derived from non-petroleum sources, additives and their concentration levels.

3) If F-76 is produced by means of blending, the traceability requirement and documentation for additives and materials shall apply to each blending component used from the point of manufacture through the blend operation.

Materials composition, additives and their concentration levels shall be included. The requirement and intent of traceability for blend components is not to obtain full certificates of analysis of each individual blend component, but for certification that no unapproved additives or materials are present in blend components used.

All traceability documentation shall be sufficient to guarantee that at no point have any unauthorized materials or additives been blended into the final product or any of its associated blend components per section 3.2 Material of

MIL-DTL-16884N.

4) The form titled: “F-76 Traceability Signature Page” shall be used to document the above requirements in lines e.1 to e.4.

Documents provided in conjunction with individual shipments shall be uploaded into Wide Area Work Flow as attachments under the quality tab.

In addition, as part of the offer submission package, the offeror shall provide the signed traceability signature page and if the offeror is not the refiner of the product, the offeror shall provide the signed traceability signature page from each entity in the supply chain providing and/or handling F-76 product and/or blending components all the way back to the point of manufacture.

ii) The signed traceability signature page shall be provided by the supplier for each shipment. In addition, as part of the offer submission package, the offeror shall provide the signed traceability signature page. If the offeror is not the refiner of the product, upon award and prior to the first shipment, the offeror shall provide to the contracting office and PQIS@dla.mil the signed traceability signature page from each entity in the supply chain providing and/or handling F-76 product and/or blending components all the way back to the point of manufacture.

iii) As part of the offer submission package, the offeror shall provide the signed traceability signature page.

Subsequently, for each shipment, signed traceability signature page shall be provided by the supplier and if the offeror is not the refiner of the product, the offeror shall provide the signed traceability signature page from each entity in the supply chain providing and/or handling F-76 product and/or blending components all the way back to the point of manufacture.

5) If at any point during the contract period the traceability information provided under option i or ii becomes invalid

(i.e. the supply chain is altered or the source of F76 product or a blending component changes), the supplier shall notify both the contracting office and PQIS@dla.mil and updated documentation shall be provided.

f) ADDITIVES:

1) The following lubricity additives are permitted with the corresponding concentrations when the total sulfur of the product is less than 500 ppm.
