- Replace Clause D-FSS-468 (Dec 2003) on page 7 of RFQ No. 7FLA2-Z5-04-1370-SQ with Clause below: D-FSS-468 NON-MANUFACTURED WOOD PACKAGE MATERIAL TO EUROPEAN UNION (NOV 2001) (a) Definitions: ?Package material,? for purposes of this clause, is defined as each separate and distinct material that by itself or in combination with other materials forms the container providing means of protecting and handling to a product. ?Non-Manufactured wood,? is also called solid wood and defined as wood packing other than that comprised wholly of wood-based products such as plywood, particle board, oriented strand board, veneer, wood wool, etc. which has been created using glue, heat and pressure or a combination thereof. (b) Non-manufactured wood pallets and other non-manufactured wood package material used to pack items ordered for ultimate delivery to or through a European Union country must be marked and treated as to comply with the Emergency Measures (2001/219/EC) adopted by the Commission of the European Communities (CEC). This requirement applies whether the shipment is direct to the end user or through a Government designated consolidation point. Pallets that do not conform to the CEC?s regulation will be refused entry, destroyed or treated prior to entry. (c) For Department of Defense distribution facilities or freight consolidation points, all wood pallets or packing material with a probability of entering Europe must be treated and marked in accordance with DLA PROCLTR 01-15, and MIL-STD-2073-1. (d) Pallets and packing material shipped to FSS distribution facilities designated for possible delivery to the European Union will comply with DLA PROCLTR 01-15, and MIL-STD-2073-1. (e) Delays in delivery caused by non-complying pallets or wood package material will not be considered as beyond the control of the contractor. Any applicable Government expense incurred as a result of the contractor failure to provide appropriate pallets or package material shall be reimbursed by the contractor. Expenses may include the applicable cost for repackage, rehandling and return shipping, or destruction of pallets. Close date of RFQ has not changed. All other terms and conditions remain the same.
