- The contractor shall include a clause in all subcontracts requiring the subcontractors to comply with the safety provisions of this contract, as applicable.
B. Mishap Notification
- The contractor shall notify 75 ABW/SEG (801-777-3333), or the Hill AFB Command Post (777-3007) after normal duty hours, and the designated Government Representative (GR), i.e., the ACO, PCO, or DCMA QAR (Quality Assurance Representative) within one (1) hour of all mishaps or incidents at or exceeding $2,000 (material + labor) in damage to DOD property entrusted by this contract, even if the government is wholly or partially reimbursed. This notification requirement shall also include physiological mishaps/incidents. A written or email copy of the mishap/incident notification shall be sent within three calendar days to the GR, who will forward it to 75 ABW/SEG. For information not available at the time of initial notification, the contractor shall provide the remaining information no later than 20 calendar days after the mishap, unless extended by the ACO.
