This document outlines the delivery requirements for diesel fuel to the Kaena Point Satellite Tracking Station in Hawaii, managed by the USAF. The delivery address is specified, along with details such as the mode of delivery (tank truck with pumping and metering), the need for security clearance, and the requirement for the vendor to provide advanced notification of delivery, including driver and truck details. The delivery is restricted to certain hours (Monday to Friday, 0700-1400), and special access is mandatory.
Additionally, there are specific guidelines regarding the information to be included on the delivery ticket, such as fuel type, sulfur content, cetane index, and delivery amount. Security measures are emphasized, including the necessity for an escort during delivery, which is arranged by the Point of Contact. This document serves as an important guide for compliance with local regulations and ensures that all safety protocols are followed during fuel deliveries to government facilities.
The Defense Logistics Agency Energy has outlined specifications for Diesel Fuel, particularly Grade Number 2-D S15 (ULSD), under contract DLA Energy. The supply must meet all applicable Federal, State, and local environmental requirements, potentially including Title V (Clean Air Act) permits. If regional regulations impose stricter standards than the contract specifies, the contractor must comply with these higher standards, with provisions for equitable adjustments for any resulting cost increases. The fuel must conform to ASTM D 975 specifications, ensuring it is clear of impurities and has a maximum sulfur content of 0.0015 wt%. Additionally, the document considers the use of approved additives for fuel stabilization, corrosion inhibition, and icing prevention, detailing permissible blending methods. Low-temperature operability is defined by the cloud point limits based on specific temperature criteria. This document serves as a guideline for contractors providing fuel to ensure compliance, quality, and environmental responsibility within set specifications, thus reflecting the federal impetus for sustainable and regulated logistics operations.
