Except as expressly provided herein, UCC makes no other warranty or guarantee of any kind, express or implied, including any warranty of merchantability of products or for suitability of products 1 selected or requested by others for the intended purpose. Budgetary pricing has been based on the proposed man loading and assumed schedule. It is not to be construed, whether expressed or implied, as a firm-fixed price or a not-to-exceed value for a 2 specific scope of services. Budgetary pricing is provided to assist you in forecasting project costs. Pricing is typically conservative for that reason. Should these services be solicited competitively, pricing herein should not be 3 considered final, and to that end, UCC should be included in any future solicitations. Invoicing for actual services rendered shall be in accordance with UCC’s most current rates on file for your organization. Any schedule alterations, personnel changes and/or changes to scope or 4 methodology, may increase or decrease the total project cost. 5 The Standby Day Rate will apply for delays due to factors outside of UCC’s control that cause the extension of the project's operations beyond the terms included in our price. All open shop services will be invoiced based on a minimum eight (8) hour day Monday through Friday at the straight time rate. Overtime hours are billable after eight (8) hours Monday through 6 Friday and for all hours worked on Saturdays. Double-time will be invoiced for all hours worked on Sundays and Holidays as listed below. UCC-recognized company holidays are New Year’s Day, Memorial Day, Independence Day, Labor Day, Thanksgiving Day, and Christmas Day. Additionally, any customer holidays that differ from 7 UCC’s will be considered UCC holidays. Emergent services, defined as services requested and response required within twenty-four hours, may be subject to premium time charges (i.e., shop time, travel time, site hours [minimum eight 8 (8) hours] and travel expense). Signed manifests for time and material services or signed delay sheets are considered a customer’s formal acceptance of work performed. Signed manifests and delay sheets shall also be used for 9 final invoicing by UCC. 10 By accepting UCC’s proposal with these terms and conditions attached, you are accepting UCC’s terms and conditions as identified herein. 11 Starting time for services shall be mutually agreed upon in advance and is subject to the availability of UCC’s personnel and equipment. Unless otherwise stated in a previously established contract, services will not be provided until the customer signs and returns this quote, or issues a purchase order referencing this quote in its 12 entirety. UCC understands that for this project, no specific welding code is provided and certification of divers is not required. UCC would supply crew personnel experienced in performing Class B U/W welds 13 in accordance AWS D3.6. UCC assumes that the flow rate will allow for safe diving. If at any time the current velocity exceeds two (2) feet per second, the UCC Midwest VP and safety departments shall be contacted prior to 14 diving. Diving operations will not resume until hazardous conditions have been made safe. UCC is not responsible for project delays due to hazardous conditions. In accordance with all Federal and State OSHA Commercial Diving Rules and Regulations 1910, Subpart "T", 29 CFR 1910.425.3 and ADCI International Consensus Standards for Commercial Diving 15 and Underwater Operations, if a site hazard analysis reveals unforeseen conditions or change in configurations (i.e. differential pressure, live pumps, flow thru open valves, gates or other energized operating components) additional personnel and or equipment may be required and the project cost would increase accordingly. Such conditions will be communicated in advance to the client. The UCC Midwest VP and safety departments will solely determine whether conditions are conducive to safe diving operations per UCC’s Safe Practices Manual, Cold Weather Environment Program 16 and Warm Water Diving Procedure IOP.02.05.1 which will result in project delays and additional cost to the overall budget. Client is responsible for paying for all weather delays. 17 UCC is liable for their employees; client is responsible for any individual, including himself, herself, or any invitee or other contractors around UCC’s work site and our equipment. 18 Client is responsible for having permits in place, if required. If permits, bonding, or additional insurance are required to be supplied by UCC, additional costs would be invoiced as additional services. 19 Unless otherwise stated, UCC is not responsible for liquidated or consequential damages. UCC is not responsible for the adequacy of the performance or design criteria required by contract documents. UCC assumes that the design and drawings provided are suitable for the intended 20 purpose. UCC assumes that any design tolerances specified or implied can be achieved in the field with the templates, materials and procedures provided by Others and the tooling proposed.

  • Hazard Alert Poster 2000-14
    HAZARD ALERT Industry: Diving Age: 36 years Experience: 12 years Area: Central BC Diver killed during maintenance work A commercial diver was drawn into a 30" diameter aerator intake pipe while attempting to locate the screens for two fire pump intakes. The pulp mill hired a diving company to inspect and clean two intake screens in their industrial effluent pond. Both parties thought that the work had been planned and all hazards identified. The pumps for the two intakes to be worked on had been identified and locked out. The diver, after entering the water with zero visibility, thought he had located the fire pump intakes when he was drawn into a nearby aerator intake pipe. The screen for this intake pipe had broken off and the diver was pulled, head first, 80 feet up the pipe. As the aerator intake pipe had not been identified on the drawings used, the 35,000 litre per minute aerator pump had not been locked out. There were no visual markers on the surface of the pond to identify the aerator or fire pump intakes. Safe work practices: Before diving, a detailed risk assessment must be conducted by a qualified person, with specific knowledge of the worksite, to determine all hazards • Ensure there are accurate drawings (preferably on a master drawing) indicating all underwater equipment, piping, intakes, etc. for all underwater work • Ensure all underlying hazards have visual indicators (flagging or signage) on the surface • Ensure risk assessments, safe work procedures, lockout procedures, pre-work meeting documents, and accurate drawings are available and used by project co- ordinators and diving contractors working in underwater environments FATALITY 00–14 The WCB has a wide range of health and safety information.

  • Underwater Inspection Criteria
    NAVAL FACILITIES ENGINEERING SERVICE CENTER Port Hueneme, California 93043-4370 UNDERWATER INSPECTION CRITERIA By Shawn W. Kelly Naval Facilities Engineering Service Center 1100 23rd Avenue Port Hueneme, California 93043-4370 March 1999 Prepared for: California State Lands Commission Marine Facilities Division 330 Golden Shore, Suite 210 Long Beach, California 90802-4246 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The Marine Facilities Division (MFD) of the California State Lands Commission (CSLC) is in the process of reviewing and formulating various design and inspection criteria for waterfront facilities. The MFD has a regulatory requirement to require a thorough examination of each marine terminal in the State to determine whether the structural integrity of the terminal, the oil transfer operations system, and the safety equipment are designed and being maintained in a safe working condition. To meet this regulatory objective the CSLC has developed a procedure for performing an in-depth structural and safety system audit of existing marine loading and discharge terminals located onshore, near-shore, and offshore California. These procedures apply to pier and wharf terminals, and offshore multi-point mooring marine terminals. The Naval Facilities Engineering Service Center (NFESC) has been tasked to provide input to the review and formulation of design and inspection criteria for waterfront facilities, based on the Navy’s extensive experience and expertise in this area. This document addresses the underwater inspection component of the overall effort. This underwater inspection criteria is intended to provide guidance to the CSLC on the inspection of the underwater components of a marine oil terminal facility with the intent on identifying structural damage or weaknesses that might affect the continued fitness-for-purpose of the terminal.

  • UNDERWATER INSPECTION and CONSTRUCTION SERVICES Underwater Inspections
    Underwater services UNDERWATER INSPECTION AND CONSTRUCTION SERVICES Underwater Inspections 294187 3425 INSPECTIONS Our team of over 30 ADCI certified divers have the latest technologies to aid them in gathering information in various types of underwater conditions. Whether the conditions are extreme temperatures, poor visibility or strong currents, we have the tools and personnel to respond to a wide range of challenges. » Bridges » Piers and dock facilities » Dams (FERC Part 12 and USCOE) » Pipelines Acoustic Imagery » Industrial facilities » Vessels When underwater visibility is limited, acoustic imagery can help clear things up. This technology uses » Intakes and outfalls acoustics to create an underwater image of the structure to help detect structural problems and scour issues. Typically these images can be combined with above water digital photography or CAD drawings to create a pictorial reference of the entire structure. Detailed Reporting We understand that an inspection is only as good as the information communicated. Brennan divers can investigate, record, and effectively report critical information. These reports contain detailed descriptions, CAD drawings, images, and underwater video documentation to help identify any structural concerns. Remotely Operated Vehicles Our ROV's can be used to gather information when underwater conditions are unknown. They can be outfitted with HD video systems and sonar imaging equipment to navigate and collect valuable information. These vehicles are ideal for pipeline penetrations, or deployment in conditions unsafe for diver entry. Bathymetric Surveys Brennan has a full time survey department with licensed hydrographers capable of providing georeferenced, 3-dimensional models of subaqueous structures and surfaces. This ability combined with a detailed dive inspection will leave little to the imagination.
