Also, no notification incorporating an increase in a contract unit price shall be executed pursuant to this contract text until the increase has been verified by the Contracting

Officer.

(ii) DECREASES. If the Contractor fails to notify the Contracting Officer of any decrease in the reference price, within the allotted 15 day period, such decrease shall apply to all deliveries made on or after the effective date of such decrease.

COMMERCIAL ITEMS clause of the this contract in which case the contract shall be amended to make an equitable extension of the delivery schedule.

(f) UPWARD CEILING ON ECONOMIC PRICE ADJUSTMENT. The Contractor agrees that the total increase in any contract unit price pursuant to these economic price adjustment contract texts shall not exceed _375__ percent of the award price, except as provided hereafter:

(1) If at any time the Contractor has reason to believe that within the near future a price adjustment under the conditions of this contract text will be required that will exceed the current contract ceiling price for any item, the Contractor shall promptly notify the

Contracting Officer in writing of the expected increase. The notification shall include a revised ceiling the Contractor believes is sufficient to permit completion of remaining contract performance, along with appropriate explanation and documentation as required by the

Contracting Officer.

(2) If an actual increase in the reference price would raise a contract unit price for an item above the current ceiling, the

Contractor shall have no obligation under this contract to fill pending or future orders for such item, as of the effective date of the increase, unless the Contracting Officer issues a contract modification to raise the ceiling. If the contract ceiling will not be raised, the Contracting

Officer shall so promptly notify the Contractor in writing.

SECTION E: INSPECTION AND ACCEPTANCE

SEE ATTACHMENT C: QUALITY ASSUREANCE PROVISIONS, E-QAPs

52.246-2 Inspection of Supplies -- Fixed-Price (Aug. 1996)

(a) Definition. “Supplies,” as used in this clause, includes but is not limited to raw materials, components, intermediate assemblies, end products, and lots of supplies.

(b) The Contractor shall provide and maintain an inspection system acceptable to the Government covering supplies under this contract and shall tender to the Government for acceptance only supplies that have been inspected in accordance with the inspection system and have been found by the Contractor to be in conformity with contract requirements. As part of the system, the Contractor shall prepare records evidencing all inspections made under the system and the outcome. These records shall be kept complete and made available to the

Government during contract performance and for as long afterwards as the contract requires. The Government may perform reviews and evaluations as reasonably necessary to ascertain compliance with this paragraph. These reviews and evaluations shall be conducted in a manner that will not unduly delay the contract work. The right of review, whether exercised or not, does not relieve the Contractor of the obligations under the contract.

(c) The Government has the right to inspect and test all supplies called for by the contract, to the extent practicable, at all places and times, including the period of manufacture, and in any event before acceptance. The Government shall perform inspections and tests in a manner that will not unduly delay the work. The Government assumes no contractual obligation to perform any inspection and test for the benefit of the Contractor unless specifically set forth elsewhere in this contract.

(d) If the Government performs inspection or test on the premises of the Contractor or a subcontractor, the Contractor shall furnish, and shall require subcontractors to furnish, at no increase in contract price, all reasonable facilities and assistance for the safe and convenient performance of these duties. Except as otherwise provided in the contract, the Government shall bear the expense of Government inspections or tests made at other than the Contractor’s or subcontractor’s premises; provided, that in case of rejection, the Government shall not be liable for any reduction in the value of inspection or test samples.

(e)

(1) When supplies are not ready at the time specified by the Contractor for inspection or test, the Contracting Officer may charge to the Contractor the additional cost of inspection or test.

(2) The Contracting Officer may also charge the Contractor for any additional cost of inspection or test when prior rejection makes reinspection or retest necessary.

(f) The Government has the right either to reject or to require correction of nonconforming supplies. Supplies are nonconforming when they are defective in material or workmanship or are otherwise not in conformity with contract requirements. The Government may reject nonconforming supplies with or without disposition instructions.

(g) The Contractor shall remove supplies rejected or required to be corrected. However, the Contracting Officer may require or permit correction in place, promptly after notice, by and at the expense of the Contractor. The Contractor shall not tender for acceptance corrected or rejected supplies without disclosing the former rejection or requirement for correction, and, when required, shall disclose the corrective action taken.

(h) If the Contractor fails to promptly remove, replace, or correct rejected supplies that are required to be removed or to be replaced or corrected, the Government may either

(1) by contract or otherwise, remove, replace, or correct the supplies and charge the cost to the Contractor or

(2) terminate the contract for default.

Unless the Contractor corrects or replaces the supplies within the delivery schedule, the Contracting Officer may require their delivery and make an equitable price reduction. Failure to agree to a price reduction shall be a dispute.

(i)

(1) If this contract provides for the performance of Government quality assurance at source, and if requested by the Government, the Contractor shall furnish advance notification of the time --

(i) When Contractor inspection or tests will be performed in accordance with the terms and conditions of the contract;

and

(ii) When the supplies will be ready for Government inspection.

(2) The Government’s request shall specify the period and method of the advance notification and the Government representative to whom it shall be furnished. Requests shall not require more than 2 workdays of advance notification if the Government representative is in residence in the Contractor’s plant, nor more than 7 workdays in other instances.

(j) The Government shall accept or reject supplies as promptly as practicable after delivery, unless otherwise provided in the contract.

Government failure to inspect and accept or reject the supplies shall not relieve the Contractor from responsibility, nor impose liability on the Government, for nonconforming supplies.

(k) Inspections and tests by the Government do not relieve the Contractor of responsibility for defects or other failures to meet contract requirements discovered before acceptance. Acceptance shall be conclusive, except for latent defects, fraud, gross mistakes amounting to fraud, or as otherwise provided in the contract.

(l) If acceptance is not conclusive for any of the reasons in paragraph (k) hereof, the Government, in addition to any other rights and remedies provided by law, or under other provisions of this contract, shall have the right to require the Contractor

(1) at no increase in contract price, to correct or replace the defective or nonconforming supplies at the original point of delivery or at the Contractor’s plant at the Contracting Officer’s election, and in accordance with a reasonable delivery schedule as may be agreed upon between the Contractor and the Contracting Officer; provided, that the Contracting Officer may require a reduction in contract price if the Contractor fails to meet such delivery schedule, or

(2) within a reasonable time after receipt by the Contractor of notice of defects or nonconformance, to repay such portion of the contract as is equitable under the circumstances if the Contracting Officer elects not to require correction or replacement. When supplies are returned to the Contractor, the Contractor shall bear the transportation cost from the original point of delivery to the

Contractor’s plant and return to the original point when that point is not the Contractor’s plant. If the Contractor fails to perform or act as required in (1) or (2) above and does not cure such failure within a period of 10 days (or such longer period as the

Contracting Officer may authorize in writing) after receipt of notice from the Contracting Officer specifying such failure, the

Government shall have the right by contract or otherwise to replace or correct such supplies and charge to the Contractor the cost occasioned the Government thereby.

All measurements and calibrations made to determine quantity shall be in accordance with the most recent edition of the API Manual of Petroleum Measurement Standards (MPMS). Outside the United States, other technically equivalent national or international standards may be used. Certified capacity tables shall mean capacity tables prepared by an independent inspector or any independent surveyor to the aforementioned measurement and calibration standards. In addition, the following specific standards will be used as applicable:

(1) API MPMS Chapter 11.1, Temperature and Pressure Volume Correction Factors for Generalized Crude Oils, Refined Products, and Lubricating Oils (this chapter is an adjunct to ASTM D 1250, IP 200 and ISO 91-1). Either the 2004 or 1980 version of the standard may be used. Either the printed tables (an adjunct to the 1980 version) or the computer subroutine version of the standard may be used. In case of disputes, the computer subroutine and the 2004 version of the standard will be the referee method.

(i) For crude oils, JP4, and Jet B, use Volume I, Tables 5A and 6A; Volume VII, Tables 53A and 54A; or Volume IV, Tables 23A and 24A.

(ii) For lubricating oils, use Volume XIII, Tables 5D and 6D; Volume XIV, Tables 53D and 54D; or Tables 23D and 24D

(2004 version).

(iii) For all other fuels and fuel oils, use Volume II, Tables 5B and 6B; Volume VII, Tables 53B and 54B; or Volume V, Tables 23B and 24B.

(iv) For chemicals/additives, use Volume III, Table 6C (or Volume IX, Table 54C) or volume correct in accordance with the product specification.

(v) Volume XII, Table 52, shall be used to convert cubic meters at 15 degrees Celsius to barrels at 60 degrees Fahrenheit.

Convert liters at 15 degrees Celsius to cubic meters at 15 degrees Celsius by dividing by 1,000. Convert gallons at 60 degrees Fahrenheit to barrels at 60 degrees Fahrenheit by dividing by 42. Should foreign law restrict conversion by this method, the method required by law shall be used.

(vi) As an option to (c)(1)(v), liters may be converted to gallons using Table F1.09A (see below). If this option is used, it must be agreed upon by both parties and shall remain in effect for the duration of the contract. Should foreign law restrict conversion by this method, the method required by law shall be stated in the offer.

(vii) If the original measurement is by weight and quantity is required by U.S. gallons, then--

(A) Volume XI, Table 8, shall be used to convert pounds to U.S. gallons at 60 degrees Fahrenheit.

(B) Volume XII of the adjunct to ASTM D 1250, Table 58, shall be used to convert metric tons to U.S. gallons at 60 degrees Fahrenheit.

(2) API MPMS Chapter 4, Proving Systems. All meters used in determining product volume shall be calibrated using this standard with the frequency required by local regulation (foreign or domestic). If no local regulation exists, then the frequency of calibration shall be that recommended by the meter manufacturer or every 6 months, whichever is more frequent. A meter calibration log/calibration certificates shall be maintained which, as a minimum, contains--

(i) Number/name of each meter;
