Contracting Officer will make their full text available. Also, the full
text of a clause may be accessed electronically at this/these
address(es):

> [www.arnet.gov/far](http://www.arnet.gov/far)

\(d\) *Inspection/Acceptance*. The Contractor shall tender for
acceptance only those items that conform to the requirements of this
contract. The Government reserves the right to inspect or test any
supplies or services that have been tendered for acceptance. The
Government may require repair or replacement of nonconforming supplies
or reperformance of nonconforming services at no increase in contract
price. The Government must exercise its post acceptance rights-

> \(1\) Within a reasonable period of time after the defect was
> discovered or should have been discovered; and
>
> \(2\) Before any substantial change occurs in the condition of the
> item, unless the change is due to the defect in the item.

\(e\) *Excusable delays*. The Contractor shall be liable for default
unless nonperformance is caused by an occurrence beyond the reasonable
control of the Contractor and without its fault or negligence, such as
acts of God or the public enemy, acts of the Government in either its
sovereign or contractual capacity, fires, floods, epidemics, quarantine
restrictions, strikes, unusually severe weather, and delays of common
carriers. The Contractor shall notify the Contracting Officer in writing
as soon as it is reasonably possible after the commencement of any
excusable delay, setting forth the full particulars in connection
therewith, shall remedy such occurrence with all reasonable dispatch,
and shall promptly give written notice to the Contracting Officer of the
cessation of such occurrence.

\(f\) *Termination for the Government\'s convenience*. The Government
reserves the right to terminate this contract, or any part hereof, for
its sole convenience. In the event of such termination, the Contractor
shall immediately stop all work hereunder and shall immediately cause
any and all of its suppliers and subcontractors to cease work. Subject
to the terms of this contract, the Contractor shall be paid a percentage
of the contract price reflecting the percentage of the work performed
prior to the notice of termination, plus reasonable charges that the
Contractor can demonstrate to the satisfaction of the Government, using
its standard record keeping system, have resulted from the termination.
The Contractor shall not be required to comply with the cost accounting
standards or contract cost principles for this purpose. This paragraph
does not give the Government any right to audit the Contractor\'s
records. The Contractor shall not be paid for any work performed or
costs incurred that reasonably could have been avoided.

\(g\) *Termination for cause*. The Government may terminate this
contract, or any part hereof, for cause in the event of any default by
the Contractor, or if the Contractor fails to comply with any contract
terms and conditions, or fails to provide the Government, upon request,
with adequate assurances of future performance. In the event of
termination for cause, the Government shall not be liable to the
Contractor for any amount for supplies or services not accepted, and the
Contractor shall be liable to the Government for any and all rights and
remedies provided by law. If it is determined that the Government
improperly terminated this contract for default, such termination shall
be deemed a termination for convenience.

\(h\) *Warranty*. The Contractor warrants and implies that the items
delivered hereunder are merchantable and fit for use for the particular
purpose described in this contract.

*The following clause applies if electronic submission and award is
used:*

**LH.0000-0071 Electronic Submission of Documents via the DOE IIPS
System (WAPA, 11/2002)**

The following requirements apply if proposals or other documents are
submitted electronically via the Dept of Energy\'s \'Industry
Interactive Procurement System\' (IIPS) or by other electronic means
(e.g., electronic files on a CD-ROM):

\(a\) The terms and conditions contained in the \'Notice of Disclaimer\'
on the DOE IIPS system (agreed to when vendors register to use the IIPS
system) are hereby incorporated into this solicitation/award document.

\(b\) All document files submitted electronically must be submitted in
one or more of the following Microsoft Office 97 for Windows (or newer)
file formats (e.g., .doc, .xls, .mdb, .ppt); portable document format
(.pdf); or in the following graphic file formats (.gif or .jpg). Use
whichever format is most appropriate for the type of document involved.
Engineering drawings, if any, must be in AutoCAD, PDF, or in one of the
acceptable graphic file formats. NOTE: if there are an inordinately
large number of drawings, or if the file sizes are prohibitively large,
contact the Contracting Officer before the proposal due date and time
for further instructions.

\(c\) Offerors are responsible for ensuring their
electronically-submitted files are free from viruses, are in the
prescribed, readable format, and are not corrupted. Replacement of
corrupt or unreadable files may be allowed at the sole discretion of the
Contracting Officer. The Contracting Officer may notify the offeror and
provide an opportunity for the offeror to submit clear and convincing
evidence: 1) of the content of the proposal as originally submitted; and
2) that the unreadable condition of the proposal was caused by, or is
the fault of, the Government.

\(d\) For purposes of determining the timeliness of proposal
submissions, the date/time stamp (DTS) assigned by the IIPS system will
be used. The IIPS DTS uses Eastern Time, so proposal due dates expressed
in other time zones will be converted to Eastern Time to make the
timeliness determination, unless otherwise specified in the
solicitation.

\(e\) Electronic signatures: submission of proposals via DOE\'s IIPS
system will constitute \'signed\' copies of the required documents. The
name of the authorized, responsible company official who would normally
sign that document shall be entered on the signature line. In addition,
the Contracting Officer may require, at his or her discretion, a signed,
paper copy of each original signature page to be submitted via US Mail
or by facsimile.

\(f\) Updates or changes to proposals or other documents originally
submitted via the IIPS system must also be submitted via IIPS. In the
event that a conflict or discrepancy is discovered between a paper copy
of a vendor or Government document, the copy as posted on the IIPS
system shall be considered the official, \'controlling\' version of the
document.

\(g\) Offerors must use discrete file names (and descriptions, where
applicable) for all files uploaded to the IIPS system.

\(h\) Offerors agree to, and certify, that they have not made any
changes to Government-originated files/documents - other than for
expected signatures or fill-ins - that must be returned to the
Government (e.g., Representations and Certifications). Any questions or
concerns about any Government documents must be communicated directly to
the Contracting Officer.

**LH.0000-0078 Lobbying Restriction (Energy and Water Development
Appropriations Act, 2003) (WAPA, 6/2003)**

The contractor agrees that none of the funds obligated on this award
shall be expended, directly or indirectly, to influence Congressional
action on any legislation or appropriation matters pending before
Congress, other than to communicate to Members of Congress as described
in 18 U.S.C. 1913. This restriction is in addition to those prescribed
elsewhere in statute and regulation.

**LH.0000-0079 Notice Regarding the Purchase of American-Made Equipment
and Products -- Sense of Congress (WAPA, 1/2001)**

It is the sense of the Congress that, to the greatest extent
practicable, all equipment and products purchased with funds made
available under this award should be American-made.

We will need a Hot Oil cleaning procedure done to LIB KUIA a 345KV to
230KV Transformer which contains approximately 30,000 gallons of oil and
is detailed in the following. The procedure will consist of a
closed-loop mobile system using connecting hoses between the deenergized
transformer and the mobile unit. The entire system including hoses is
filled with oil before the processing is initiated. The oil will be
removed from the bottom of the transformer. As it enters the processing
equipment it will need to be cleaned and stripped of oil decay
by-products, water and gases through multiple passes of heat, vacuum,
fullers earth and micron filters. The out going oil should rise beyond
the aniline point (160\* - 180\*F) to 200\*F. The system should maintain
this 200\*F within a few degrees throughout the processing of the oil
and the desludging of the transformer. The oil will then be returned to
the unit at the top, therefore an adequate amount of oil will remain in
the transformer at all times. This hot oil will penetrate into the
sludge saturated insulating paper, the cooling fins, cooling ducts and
between the windings thus providing for a continuous dissolving action
of the oil decay by-products. The exact number of total pumping gallons
required to clean our transformer is predicated on the levels of
oxidation-by-products as noted in acid and interfacial tension oil
tests. This will be accomplished by running the full volume of oil
through 10 complete passes of heat, vacuum and fullers earth with an
additional 4 passes of heat and vacuum.

The awarded contractor must be able to guarantee the finished oil will
meet the specifications detailed below. Dielectric 35kv, Acid number
will not be greater than 0.03 mg/KOH/g and the Interfacial Tension shall
not be less than 36 DYNES/Per Centimeter. The secondary unintended
consequence of removing the total combustibles in this unit to
approximately 10% or the original combustionable content.

It must be further understood that simply removing the oil and replacing
it with new oil will not protect our paper insulation. This is due in
large part to the propensity of the paper insulation to hold a minimum
of ten percent of the total volume of the original contaminated oil. The
oil remaining in the paper will simply contaminate the new oil and cause
it to climb to unacceptable levels faster than if you reclaimed the unit
properly. This will also be the case in the event of improperly doing a
Hot Oil Clean service with less than the recommended total pumping
gallons and this is not acceptable. In this scenario with less than
recommended total pumping gallons of heat, vacuum and fullers\' earth,
the hot oil will act as a cleaning agent. Unfortunately it will clean
the outer twenty five percent of the paper insulation with out deep
cleaning the entire system. This allows contaminates deep in the
insulation to escape and re-contaminate the entire system at faster
levels.

The awarded contractor will have included in his proposal the cost for
but not limited to the following items. The clean up and disposal of
items such as needed make up oil, generated waste, waste oil and fullers
earth from the job site. The awarded contractor's job site
representatives and personnel will be responsible for adhering to
Western Area Power Administration PSSM AND PSOM documentation.

The unit will be deenergized and removed from service by Western
personnel a clearance will be issued to a Western representative.
Grounds will be installed by Western personnel and a Special Work Permit
will be issued to the awarded contractor's representative. Upon
completion of the job the contractor's representative will release his
Special Work Permit to Western representative. The unit then will be
tested by Western personnel to insure LIB KUIA is ready to be restored
to service. After LIB KUIA has been found ready to be restored to
service Western personnel will remove the grounds and release their
clearance and restore the unit to service.

\*\* UNIFORM ALLOWANCE \*\*

If employees are required to wear uniforms in the performance of this
contract

(either by the terms of the Government contract, by the employer, by the
state

or local law, etc.), the cost of furnishing such uniforms and
maintaining (by

laundering or dry cleaning) such uniforms is an expense that may not be
borne by

an employee where such cost reduces the hourly rate below that required
by the

wage determination. The Department of Labor will accept payment in
accordance

with the following standards as compliance:

The contractor or subcontractor is required to furnish all employees
with an

adequate number of uniforms without cost or to reimburse employees for
the

actual cost of the uniforms. In addition, where uniform cleaning and
maintenance

is made the responsibility of the employee, all contractors and
subcontractors

subject to this wage determination shall (in the absence of a bona fide

collective bargaining agreement providing for a different amount, or the

furnishing of contrary affirmative proof as to the actual cost),
reimburse all

employees for such cleaning and maintenance at a rate of \$3.35 per week
(or \$.67

cents per day). However, in those instances where the uniforms furnished
are

made of \"wash and wear\" materials, may be routinely washed and dried
with other

personal garments, and do not require any special treatment such as dry

cleaning, daily washing, or commercial laundering in order to meet the

cleanliness or appearance standards set by the terms of the Government
contract,

by the contractor, by law, or by the nature of the work, there is no
requirement

that employees be reimbursed for uniform maintenance costs.

\*\* NOTES APPLYING TO THIS WAGE DETERMINATION \*\*

REQUEST FOR AUTHORIZATION OF ADDITIONAL CLASSIFICATION AND WAGE RATE
{Standard

Form 1444 (SF 1444)}

Conformance Process:

The contracting officer shall require that any class of service employee
which

is not listed herein and which is to be employed under the contract
(i.e., the

work to be performed is not performed by any classification listed in
the wage

determination), be classified by the contractor so as to provide a
reasonable

relationship (i.e., appropriate level of skill comparison) between such
unlisted

classifications and the classifications listed in the wage
determination. Such

conformed classes of employees shall be paid the monetary wages and
furnished

the fringe benefits as are determined. Such conforming process shall be

initiated by the contractor prior to the performance of contract work by
such

unlisted class(es) of employees. The conformed classification, wage
rate, and/or

fringe benefits shall be retroactive to the commencement date of the
contract.

{See Section 4.6 (C)(vi)} When multiple wage determinations are included
in a

contract, a separate SF 1444 should be prepared for each wage
determination to

which a class(es) is to be conformed.

The process for preparing a conformance request is as follows:

1\) When preparing the bid, the contractor identifies the need for a
conformed

occupation(s) and computes a proposed rate(s).

2\) After contract award, the contractor prepares a written report
listing in

order proposed classification title(s), a Federal grade equivalency
(FGE) for

each proposed classification(s), job description(s), and rationale for
proposed

wage rate(s), including information regarding the agreement or
disagreement of

the authorized representative of the employees involved, or where there
is no

authorized representative, the employees themselves. This report should
be

submitted to the contracting officer no later than 30 days after such
unlisted

class(es) of employees performs any contract work.

3\) The contracting officer reviews the proposed action and promptly
submits a

report of the action, together with the agency\'s recommendations and
pertinent

information including the position of the contractor and the employees,
to the

Wage and Hour Division, Employment Standards Administration, U.S.
Department of

Labor, for review. (See section 4.6(b)(2) of Regulations 29 CFR Part 4).

4\) Within 30 days of receipt, the Wage and Hour Division approves,
modifies, or

disapproves the action via transmittal to the agency contracting
officer, or

notifies the contracting officer that additional time will be required
to

process the request.

5\) The contracting officer transmits the Wage and Hour decision to the

contractor.

6\) The contractor informs the affected employees.

Information required by the Regulations must be submitted on SF 1444 or
bond

paper.

When preparing a conformance request, the \"Service Contract Act
Directory of

Occupations\" (the Directory) should be used to compare job definitions
to insure

that duties requested are not performed by a classification already
listed in

the wage determination. Remember, it is not the job title, but the
required

tasks that determine whether a class is included in an established wage

determination. Conformances may not be used to artificially split,
combine, or

subdivide classifications listed in the wage determination.
