After either contract award or renewal, the COTR will schedule a date to inspect the Contractor's proposed aircraft, equipment and personnel to ensure contract compliance. The inspection will be conducted at the designated base, Contractor's facility or other location acceptable to the Government and the contractor. The inspection will be scheduled to commence as early as 60 days and not later than three days (excluding weekends and holidays) prior to the established reporting date, unless otherwise mutually agreed upon by the COTR and the Contractor. The inspection time and date will be scheduled for between 0730 and 1630 local time, Monday through Friday, unless otherwise agreed upon by the COTR. The COTR will confirm the inspection details in writing. Contractor written requests for inspection rescheduling that are received by the COTR at least 10 days prior to the originally scheduled inspection date may be accommodated by the COTR, depending upon their work schedule. The Contractor must provide information specific to the aircraft, equipment, and personnel being proposed for use during each year of the contract when requested by the COTR. The Contractor must notify the CO, the COR, and the COTR when an action has been imposed by the FAA on the operator’s certificate or on any pilot or aircraft carded under this contract. The Contractor must also notify the COTR of any changes in the Director of Operations, Chief Pilot, and Director of Maintenance as well as any additional positions approved under 14 CFR 119.69(b). Approved aircraft and pilots will be issued an Interagency Aircraft Data Card and Pilot Qualification card as applicable. The aircraft and pilot cards detail the activities for which they are authorized. The aircraft data card is kept in the aircraft and available for inspection at all times. The pilot qualification card is kept in the possession of the pilot and available for inspection at all times. Aircraft that are provided by the Contractor to the Government that have not been approved and carded for use under this contract will result in nonpayment of services under the terms of this contract. Invoices will be returned to the Contractor. If the COTR determines any aircraft, equipment, personnel, records, or documents presented for inspection are not completely ready for the inspection or are determined to be nonconforming as required by the contract, the COTR may suspend the inspection(s) and schedule a re-inspection for another time/date/site. The Contractor may be charged for the cost of re-inspection (see page 24). Failure to have an aircraft and pilot approved for the contract that is not a result of Government delays, or failure to have an aircraft available throughout the life of the contract as originally awarded may result in exclusion from order consideration, removal from the master on call air tactical listing, non-exercise of the option for an additional year, and/or contract termination for cause. Equipment. The aircraft will be inspected to ensure compliance with all contract requirements. The Government may require in-flight dynamic testing of aircraft systems. This testing may be conducted in conjunction with pilot evaluation flight(s), and will be performed at no cost to the Government. Other equipment will be inspected to ensure contract compliance. Personnel. Pilots: Only those individuals whose past flight time and experience can be verified from log books, employment records, etc., will be approved for contract use. The Contractor cannot substitute any pilot flight evaluation time for any of the total pilot flight hour requirements listed in this contract. The COTR’s representative may conduct a pilot flight evaluation to further verify pilot(s)' ability to perform under this contract, when determined necessary. The evaluation may include but is not limited to: weight and balance performance, center of gravity limitations, aircraft performance charts, density altitude considerations, load calculation preparation and actual flying of the aircraft. Portions of the evaluation may be evaluated orally. The flight evaluation will be conducted in accordance with the FAA Commercial Practical Test Standards (PTS). A pilot must also be capable of demonstrating proficient operation of all aircraft equipment identified in Section B during an evaluation flight. The aircraft used for the flight evaluation(s) must be the same make, model and series awarded for this contract and be equipped with dual controls. At COTR discretion, the flight evaluation may be conducted in only one aircraft make, model, and series equipped with dual controls if multiple make, model and series of aircraft are awarded. Flight evaluation(s) will usually be performed in areas that provide access to terrain similar to that to be flown during the contract period. Flight evaluations are conducted at the Contractor’s expense. During the flight evaluation, pilot inspectors retain discretionary authority in determining the competency of the pilot. The Government will make the final determination as to the pilot’s ability to successfully meet contract requirements. The Government has the right to conduct interim evaluations of pilot performance throughout the performance period(s). SECTION C – CONTRACT TERMS AND CONDITIONS BLM On-Call AIR ATTACK 25 Contract NO. 140D8018DXXXX Services provided under this contract require DOI special use flight activities as identified herein. Pilots must have satisfactorily completed an agency initial and/or periodic flight evaluation(s) for these activities before being approved for use under the contract, unless otherwise indicated in the contract. The COTR will provide detailed information concerning the types and frequency of special use pilot flight evaluations when requested. Resource reconnaissance Fire reconnaissance Air tactical group supervision Substitute Aircraft or Personnel The contractor may request the use of substitute aircraft and/or personnel that was not initially approved for use. All proposed substitutes must meet contract specifications and be subject to inspections and approvals identified herein prior to use. The contractor must submit a written request for inspections of pilot substitutes to the COTR seven days prior to the scheduled arrival at the site. Requests for aircraft substitution must be submitted to the CO for approval prior to inspection. The CO may issue a bilateral modification prior to submitting a request to the COTR for inspection scheduling. Requests received with fewer than seven days’ notice will be accomplished as permitted by the COTR’s schedule. The Contractor must transport substitute personnel, aircraft, or equipment to the point of use at their expense. The Government may charge the Contractor for the cost of any substitute inspections in accordance with the following section (Re-inspection Expenses). The bureau may require substitute pilots to obtain up to three hours each of training or orientation flight time at Contractor's expense. (This flight time is in addition to any necessary pilot evaluation flight(s).) Re-inspection Expenses. The Contractor must be liable for all Government incurred re- inspection costs. Inspection expenses will not be deducted from payments due the Contractor. Contractor will be responsible to make payment as directed in writing by the CO. Costs may include, but are not limited to, inspector(s)’ time to include travel time at $75.00 per hour, and transportation and subsistence at actual cost. 52.212-4(k) Taxes Important Notice: In accordance with 52.212-4(k), the price(s) in the schedule within Section A of the contract include all applicable Federal, State, and local taxes and duties.
