Question:

After performing the shipcheck, it is noted that there are 2ea chill boxes that will need to be removed to accomplish the requirements of section 3.5 of the SOW.
Could you please provide directions on how to proceed with this discrepancy. Response:
The exterior chill boxes located on the aft end of the vessel closely affixed to the deckhouse at approximately FR 68 as depicted in drawing 8994840 Rev A will remain in place and will not be painted. These chill boxes will be protected per the SOW throughout the availability. Mask and protect the boxes to prevent adhesion of coatings. Preservation work called out in sections 3.5 and 3.6 will occur around the chill boxes with a 2-inch border between the new paint and the existing chill boxes. 002)

Question:

Can the Navy Supply the following drawings that weren’t supplied? For Item 3.3.2 – 631347
For Item 3.13 – 113-5293092 Rev D
For Item 3.17 – 113-7583701
Can the Navy supply an updated Booklet of General Plans YRBM-50 Drawing? The 845-8275822 drawing supplied is inaccurate on actual spaces, locations and space numbering to the new drawings for Items, and especially for Items 3.6.2, 3.6.5, 3.13.1, 3.14.1, 3.15.1, 3.16.1, 3.17.1, 3.18.1. Is there a newer drawing or a marked up updated drawing that is more accurate of what the barge layout of spaces and structures are currently with updated compartment and passageway numbers? Response:
The SOW citation of drawing 113-5293092 Rev D listed in section 3.13 for SHIPALT YRBM-1134D was cited in error. The relevant drawing is 113-5293062 Rev D. Requested drawings 631347, 1135293062 Rev D, and 113-7583701 are included in Amendment 0002. No, we do not have an updated Booklet of General Plans YRBM-50 Drawing.
