Requires adequate space, without obstruction to deploy stern ramp (to pier or barge) when vessel is moored either Port or Starboard side to the pier. � � �i) Provide layberth location, pier length/width, pier number and/or name, street � � �address, city, and state. c) Minimum 22.7 feet water depth at Mean Lower Low Water (At mooring berth and through vessel transit path to layberth facility). d) Four (4) netless pneumatic fenders or low-reaction foam-filled fenders per vessel are preferred. Buckling fender systems are not suitable (Section 5.8.3 of PWS refers). Fenders may be available via government to support requirement. e) Pier Services: � � �i) Garbage/Dumpster Service pick-up weekly or as required. � � �ii) Potable water � � �iii) Pier side sewage receptacle tank and/or pick-up service weekly or as required � � �if ship is not permitted to use the Marine Sanitation Device. � � �iv) Pier side oily waste tank and/or pick-up service as required. � � �v) Reliable source of electrical power at a minimum capacity of 800 amps at 450 � � �Volts. Two (2) 400 amp shore power cables, per vessel, are required to be � � �furnished by the contractor, to connect the pier side substation secondary to � � �the ship�s shore power connection. � � �vi) Minimum of 30Mbps commercial internet access which is able to support 20 � � �concurrent users with 99% service availability (via Point to Point or Wireless � � �Broadband connections). � � �vii) Capability to conduct fueling operations pier side (via truck or barge) as � � �required. � � �viii) Access to ship via brow (brow provided by ship). � � �ix) Parking within pier area or within a short walk (paved parking preferred and � � �lighted for crew safety) � � �x) Bonded guard(s), on a 24-hour, seven-day a week basis.

A guard is required at the layberth Access Control Point (ACP). i) Harbor security, force protection and waterfront access control (As requested by government) 3) Facilities: a. Pier-side Layberth Locations � Provide details on the available pier or quay space, number of vessels that pier could support, available services (shore power, security, etc.), plan to support vessel during heavy weather and any known restrictions with water depth, air draft, etc. Diagram of proposed location indicating location, type, and capacity of pier fittings and type, size, and position of net-less fenders to limit hull pressure to 10.3 psi during heavy weather. Note: nesting of aluminum vessels will not be acceptable to the government. b. Engineered Ship Enclosure � There is an interest in using an engineered enclosure for protecting the ship from the elements at the layberth location. The aluminum hull is susceptible to corrosion, sensitization, and freezing conditions. Provide details and examples of structures, devices, or coverings that would be equivalent to what would be required to protect the ship. Examples can include superstructure, deck/flight deck, side shell, and full-ship protection (to include minimizing/mitigating underwater hull growth). 4) Services: a) Layberth Planning and Execution � Placing ROS ships in a condition that will ensure reliability of all systems upon reactivation is a recognized challenge.
