Aviation Turbine Fuel (JP8) shall conform to MIL-DTL-83133K, dated July 18, 2018

Supplies delivered under this contract shall conform to all Federal, State, and local environmental requirements applicable to the geographic location of the receiving activity on the date of delivery. This includes delivery of fuel and documentation in a manner consistent with any existing or after-imposed Title V (Clean Air Act) Permits. The list of such requirements contained in this contract is not intended to be a complete list, and the Contractor shall be responsible for determining the existence of all such requirements. Selected regional environmental requirements are highlighted in the SPECIFICATIONS (CONT’D) clause. In the event that a Federal, State, or local environmental requirement is more stringent than a fuel specification contained in this contract, the Contractor shall deliver product that complies with the more stringent fuel specification. Product that fails to meet the more stringent fuel specification will be considered to be a nonconforming supply. Product(s) to be supplied shall fully meet the requirements of the applicable specification(s) as cited above. In the event that compliance with the more stringent fuel specification causes the contractor to incur additional costs, the contractor may request an equitable adjustment.

(a) INCIDENTAL CONTAMINANTS. Particulate Matter and Fatty Acid Methyl Ester (FAME) content shall not exceed the limits outlined in Table IV of MIL-DTL-83133K, dated July 18, 2018.

(ii) MICROSEPAROMETER (MSEP) RATING LIMITS. See MIL-DTL-83133K, dated July 18, 2018, Table 1, Note 15 for MSEP test method selection criteria.

(A) Prior to initial production under this contract, the Contractor shall elect, on a one-time basis, which

MSEP limit will be met for the balance of the contract. If the Contractor introduces fuel system icing inhibitor (FSII), corrosion inhibitor/lubricity improver (CI/LI), and/or static dissipater additive (SDA) after verification of product conformance with the MSEP requirement, the product is not required to meet a fixed limit on subsequent MSEP tests.

(B) If the Contractor elects to verify conformance with the MSEP requirement on a sample of product that does not contain FSII and CI/LI, an additional MSEP test shall be performed on a hand blend containing aviation turbine fuel, FSII, CI/LI, and antioxidant (AO) (AO only if required). The FSII shall be included in this hand blend at a concentration of 0.07 to 0.10 volume percent and the amount of the CI/LI included shall be within the concentration range specified in QPL-25017. The additional MSEP result of this hand blend is a REPORT ONLY requirement and shall be recorded corresponding to item 750X on the Standardized Report Form (see Attachment ).

This result shall be recorded with an asterisk next to it, and with a footnote below, stating, “*MSEP result is a ‘Report Only’ requirement. Original result of (fill in actual result) on product containing the following additives: (fill in combination of additives).”

(iii) WORKMANSHIP. The workmanship criteria in MIL-DTL-83133K, dated July 18, 2018, paragraph 3.5, is revised to read, “At the custody transfer point, the finished fuel shall be clear and bright and visually free from undissolved water and particulate matter in accordance with the latest revisions of the approved test methods. ASTM D4176 or ASTM D6986, latest versions, may be used. In case of dispute as determined by sample results taken from the custody transfer point, the fuel shall be clear and bright at 21 degrees Celsius (°C) (70 degrees Fahrenheit [°F]) and shall contain no more than 1.0 mg/L of particulate matter. The sample in dispute shall be taken into an area where the sample is permitted to slowly equilibrate to 21°C (70°F); this shall apply to either D4176 or D6986.”

(A) ASTM D6986, latest revision, shall be the referee test method, see requirements, as drafted, in MIL- DTL-83133K, dated July 18, 2018, section 3.5.

(B) For the latest revision of ASTM D 4176, Procedure 2, with a result of Rating 1, maximum. If the sample fails ASTM D4176 only because it contains visible particulate matter but meets the particulate matter requirements of 1.0 mg/L maximum as stated in MIL-DTL-83133K, Table IV, the workmanship criteria is met.

(2) SPECIAL LOCATION REQUIREMENTS

(i) Rocky Mountain/West. Aviation fuel movement via the Chevron Pipeline (Utah, Idaho, or Washington state entry points) shall be limited to total sulfur content of 0.15 mass percent, maximum.

(ii) Alaska. For fuels refined in Alaska and delivered to Alaska locations, the total acid number shall be relaxed to 0.020 mg KOH/g maximum.
