     CHAPTER 30--DEPARTMENT OF HOMELAND SECURITY, HOMELAND SECURITY 
                      ACQUISITION REGULATION (HSAR)
 
Sec. 3017.9000  Clauses (USCG).

    For the U.S. Coast Guard, the following clauses are to be used in 
specific solicitations and contracts:
    (a) The clauses in (HSAR) 48 CFR 3052.217-90 through (HSAR) 48 CFR 
3052.217-93 and (HSAR) 48 CFR 3052.217-95 through (HSAR) 48 CFR 
3052.217-99 shall be included and clause (HSAR) 48 CFR 3052.217-94 may 
be included in sealed bid fixed-price solicitations and contracts for 
vessel repair, alteration, or conversion which are to be performed 
within the United States, its possessions, or Puerto Rico. The 
contracting officer may, in whole or in part (such as after incidents), 
increase the dollar amounts in the clause at (HSAR) 48 CFR 3052.217-
95(b)(6) and (c)(1) consistent with contract size, inflation, and other 
circumstances.
    (b) Unless inappropriate, the clauses in (HSAR) 48 CFR 3052.217-90 
through (HSAR) 48 CFR 3052.217-93 and (HSAR) 48 CFR 3052.217-95 through 
(HSAR) 48 CFR 3052.217-99 should be included and (HSAR) 48 CFR 3052.217-
94 may be included in negotiated solicitations and contracts to be 
performed outside the United States. The contracting officer may, in 
whole or in part (such as after incidents), increase the dollar amounts

in the clause at (HSAR) 48 CFR 3052.217-95(b)(6) and (c)(1) consistent 
with contract size, inflation, and other circumstances.
    (c) The clause at (HSAR) 48 CFR 3052.217-100, Guarantee, shall be 
used where general guarantee provisions are deemed desirable by the 
contracting officer.
    (1) When inspection and acceptance tests will afford full protection 
to the Government in ascertaining conformance to specifications and the 
absence of defects and deficiencies, no guarantee clause for that 
purpose shall be included in the contract.
    (2) The customary guarantee period, to be inserted in the first 
sentence of the clause at (HSAR) 48 CFR 3052.217-100, Guarantee, is 60 
days. However, in certain instances, the contracting officer may desire 
to include a clause in a contract for a guarantee period of more than 60 
days. In such instances:
    (i) Where, after full inquiry, it has been determined that such 
longer guarantee period will not involve increased costs, a longer 
guarantee period may be substituted by the contracting officer for the 
usual 60 days; or
    (ii) Where the full inquiry discloses that such longer guarantee 
period will involve, or is reasonably expected to involve, increased 
costs, such facts and the reasons for the need for such longer period 
shall be set forth in letter form to the COCO, requesting approval for 
use of guarantee period in excess of 60 days. Upon approval, the longer 
period may be inserted by the contracting officer in the first sentence 
of the clause at (HSAR) 48 CFR 3052.217-100, Guarantee.
