This procurement note only applies to offers of Government surplus
material. Offers of commercial surplus, manufacturer's overruns, residual
inventory resulting from terminated Government contracts, and any
other material that meets the technical requirements in the solicitation
but was not previously owned by the Government will be evaluated in accordance
with the DLAD procurement note L04, Offers for Part Numbered Items.
If requested by the contracting officer, the offeror shall furnish sample
units, in the number specified, to the contracting officer or to another
location specified by the contracting officer, within 10 days after the
contracting officer's request. The samples will be furnished at no cost to
the Government. All such samples not destroyed in evaluation will be
returned at the offeror's expense. The samples will be evaluated for form,
fit, and function with subassembly, assembly, or equipment with which the
items are to be used. End items furnished under any contract award to the
offeror furnishing the samples can include the returned samples, and all
acceptable end items will have a configuration identical to the samples.
If specific tests of the samples' performance are made by the Government,
the offeror will be furnished the results of such tests prior to a contract
being entered into. In addition to any other inspection examinations and tests
required by the contract, the performance of the end items will be required
to be as good as that of the samples submitted.
In the event of award, the contractor will be responsible for providing
material that is in full compliance with all requirements in the contract or
order. The surplus material to be furnished must meet the requirements of
the current contract or order, whether or not the material met Government

appropriate reimbursement by the contractor for the Government's costs to
correct the deficiencies. Upon determining that reimbursement is required, the
contracting officer will send a notice to the contractor. Upon receipt of
notice from the contracting officer, the contractor shall reimburse the
Government for the costs incurred by the Government to correct the
deficiencies.
(2) If the estimated costs of correction for receipts of DLA-owned materiel

the discrepancy and have the materiel returned to the contractor for
correction/resubmittal; or, if there are urgent requirements, have the
Government remediate the discrepancy at the contractor's expense. If the
Government remediates the discrepancy, the contracting officer will make a
determination concerning appropriate reimbursement by the contractor for the
Government's costs to correct the deficiencies. Upon determining that
reimbursement is required, the contracting officer will send a notice to
the contractor. Upon receipt of notice from the contracting officer, the

3.5 Marking - This item shall be physically identified in accordance with MIL-STD-130.
3.6 Configuration Control - MIL-STD-973 entitled "Configuration Management", Paragraph 5.4.8, Configuration Control (Short Form Procedure), is hereby incorporated. The Contractor shall submit all Engineering Change Proposals in accordance with MIL-STD-973,
Paragraph 5.4.8.2 and Appendix D. Requests for Deviations shall be processed in accordance with MIL-STD-973, Paragraph 5.4.8.3 and Appendix E. Requests for Waivers shall be processed in accordance with MIL-STD-973, Paragraph 5.4.8.4 and Appendix E. (Original

3.6.1 Configuration Control - When the Contractor has received authorization on a prior contract for the same NSN for the use of a drawing of a later revision status, that authorization is hereby extended to all succeeding contracts/purchase orders until
another drawing revision is approved. The Contractor will notify the PCO of this occurrence in each instance, in the response to the solicitation. Such notification shall be in writing setting forth the contract under which the prior authorization was granted,
the date of the granting of the authorization, and the name of the granting authority.
Contractors shall also refer technical inquiries (other than those covered by MIL-STD-973) on company letterhead signed by a responsible company official, with copies distributed as stated below.
The original and two copies of all Contractor generated correspondence regarding configuration shall be submitted to Contracting Officer, NAVICP-MECH, P.O. Box 2020, Mechanicsburg, PA 17055-0788.
Contractors are cautioned that implementing engineering changes, waivers, deviations or technical inquiries into the contract/purchase order without approval of the Contracting Officer will be at the sole risk of the Contractor.
3.7 Mercury Free - The material supplied under this contract/purchase order is intended for use on submarines/surface ships and therefore shall contain no metallic mercury and shall be free from mercury contamination. Mercury contamination of the material
will be cause for rejection.
If the inclusion of metallic mercury is required as a functional part of the material furnished under this contract, the Contractor shall obtain written approval from the Procurement Contracting Officer before proceeding with manufacture. The
contractor's request shall explain in detail the requirements for mercury, identify specifically the parts to contain mercury, and explain the method of protection against mercury escape. Such a request will be forwarded directly to the Procurement Contracting
Officer with a copy to the applicable Government Inspector. Upon approval by the Contracting Officer, the vendor will provide a "Warning Plate" stating that metallic mercury is a functional part of the item and will include name and location of that part.
The use of mercury, mercury compounds, or mercury-bearing instruments and/or equipment in a manner which might cause contamination in the manufacture, assembly, or test of material on this contract is prohibited. The most probable causes of
contamination are direct-connected manometers, mercury vacuum pumps, mercury seals, or the handling of mercury in the immediate vicinity. Mercury switches, mercury in glass thermometers, standard cells and other items containing mercury may be used if they are
located so as not to constitute a contamination hazard.
If external contamination by metallic mercury occurs or is suspected, the following test may be used to determine whether contamination by metallic mercury exists or whether corrective cleaning measures have been effective. Enclose the equipment in a
polyethylene bag or close-fitting airtight container for eight hours at room temperature (70 degrees F minimum).Sample the trapped air and if mercury vapor concentration is 0.01 mg/cu meter or more, the material is mercury contaminated insofar as the
requirements of this contract are concerned.
These requirements shall be included in any subcontract or purchase order hereunder and the Contractor shall insure SubContractor compliance with these requirements.
Technical questions pertaining to these requirements shall be referred to the Procurement Contracting Officer via the cognizant Administrative Contracting Officer. For background, the following information is provided:
Mercury is corrosive to gold, silver, nickel, stainless steels, aluminum and copper alloys. Stainless steels, nickel, and copper alloys are widely used in reactor plants and other submarine/surface ship systems. Accidental trapping of mercury in a
component could cause serious damage to vital parts. Mercury is also toxic if inhaled, ingested, or absorbed through the skin. It is evident that grave consequences could result from small amounts of mercury vapor present in an unreplenished submarine/surface
ship atmosphere.
