PART I - THE SCHEDULE
SECTION B
SUPPLIES OR SERVICES AND PRICES/COST
TABLE OF CONTENTS
B.1 SERVICES BEING ACQUIRED
The Contractor shall be responsible for planning, managing, integrating, operating and implementing a full range of Hanford programs, projects, and other activities as set forth in Section C. It is understood that in performing the Statement of Work set forth in Section C, the Contractors approach to the work shall be consistent with that described (excluding references relating to Lockheed Martin Hanford Company) in the Contractors proposal dated March 25, 1996, and its answers to the Governments Oral Discussion questions as provided in its response dated June 10, 1996, as modified by its proposal amendments contained in its Best and Final Offer dated July 11, 1996, unless otherwise agreed to, the DOE approved Management Plan(s), and as agreed to and/or directed by DOE. The Contractor shall furnish all personnel, facilities, equipment, material, supplies, and services (except as expressly set forth in this contract as furnished by the Government) and otherwise do all things necessary for, or incident to, performing in an efficient and effective manner all work set forth in Section C.
B.2 OBLIGATION OF FUNDS
Obligation of Funds
The amount obligated by the Government with respect to this contract is $2,821,873,889.13 as of August 27, 1999. Such amount may be increased unilaterally by DOE Contracting Officer written notice to the Contractor and may be increased or decreased by modification to the contract. Estimated collections from others for work and services to be performed under this contract are not included in the funds currently obligated. Such collections, to the extent actually received by the Contractor, shall be processed and accounted for in accordance with applicable requirements imposed by the DOE Contracting Officer. Nothing in this paragraph is to be construed as authorizing the Contractor to exceed limitations stated in financial plans, such as the Modification of contract Obligation Notice and distribution of Obligation Report (for individual orders of work for other DOE offices and non-DOE funded work only), established by DOE and furnished to the Contractor from time to time under this contract unless written direction is provided by DOE Contracting Officer.
Limitation on Payment by the Government
Payment of allowable costs by the Government under this contract cannot exceed the funds currently obligated at (a) each budget and reporting (BNR) control, and (b) specific limitations identified in the Modification of Contract Obligation Notice and/or Distribution of Obligation Report (for individual orders of work for other DOE offices and non-DOE funded work only), referred to as the financial control point, less the Contractors fee.
Actual costs and/or encumbrances that exceed the current obligation limit at the financial control point shall be retained within the Contractors financial system. Financial control points that have been exceeded will be worked to resolution by the Contractor and DOE. Costs drawn on the letter of credit which exceed the current obligation limit at the financial control point and cannot be resolved by fiscal year-end will be reimbursed from corporate funds. If resolution cannot be reached, including but not limited to, authorization received, additional funding received, Contractor accounting errors corrected, then such actual costs and/or encumbrances will be borne by the Contractor, including interest in accordance with the contract clause entitled, Interest, of this contract. Interest will accumulate beginning when the Contractor records the cost.
Notices -- Contractor Excused from Further Performance
The Contractor shall notify DOE in writing whenever the unexpended balance of available funds (including collections available under paragraph (a) above), plus the Contractors best estimate of collections to be received and available during the 30-day period hereinafter specified, is in the Contractors best judgment sufficient to continue contract operations at the programmed rate for only 30 days and to cover the Contractors unpaid fee, and outstanding encumbrances and liabilities on account of costs allowable under the contract at the end of such period. Whenever the unexpended balance of available funds (including collections available under paragraph (a) above), less the amount of the Contractors fee then earned but not paid, is in the Contractors best judgment sufficient only to liquidate outstanding encumbrances and liabilities on account of costs allowable under this contract, the Contractor shall immediately notify DOE and shall make no further encumbrances or expenditures (except to liquidate existing encumbrances and liabilities), and, unless the parties otherwise agree, the Contractor shall be excused from further performance (except such performance as may become necessary in connection with termination by the Government).
Financial Plans; Cost and Encumbrance Limitations
In addition to the limitations provided for elsewhere in this contract, DOE may, through contract modifications to this section, financial plans (such as the Modification of Contract Obligation Notice and distribution of Obligation Report [for individual orders of work for other DOE offices and non-DOE funded work only]), and other directives issued to the Contractor, establish specific limitations on costs and encumbrances at the financial control point. Such plans and directives may be amended or supplemented from time to time by DOE. The Contractor hereby agrees (1) to comply with financial control point limitations set forth in such plans and directives, (2) to comply with other requirements of such plans and directives, and (3) to notify DOE promptly in writing when it has reason to believe that any limitation on costs and encumbrances will be exceeded or substantially underrun at the financial control point. Encumbrances are defined as the uncosted balances under contracts issued and other liabilities incurred by the Contractor, including but not limited to (a) purchase orders issued; (b) contracts and subcontracts awarded including the full liability under lease purchase and capital leases; (c) termination cost for incrementally funded firm fixed price contracts, operating lease agreements, and multi-year service contracts that contain termination clauses; (d) other agreements for the acquisition of goods and services related to other M&O and Management and Integration (M&I) contractors liabilities; and (e) work orders or authorizations issued to M&O and M&I construction contractors. This definition may be revised and provided to the Contractor from time to time by RL.
B.3 PERIOD OF PERFORMANCE
The period of performance for the work specified in Section C of this contract shall commence on the date of award of the contract, and continue through September 30, 2001, unless terminated sooner as provided for in other provisions of this contract. The Transition Period shall commence on the date of award of the contract and continue through September 30, 1996.
B.4 ESTIMATED COST AND FEE
The estimated cost and total available fee pool will be established annually by the Government and set forth in a modification to this subsection. The estimated cost excludes costs of work related to Bechtel Hanford, Inc. (BHI), Hanford Environmental Health Foundation (HEHF), privatization of treatment of Tank Waste Remediation System (TWRS) work, and Pacific Northwest National Laboratory [non-Environmental Management (EM)] work, but includes the estimated cost associated with the Lockheed Martin Hanford Corporation (LMHC) prime contract to DOE starting in FY 2000. The total available fee pool for the PHMC will be based on the fee proposed and negotiated at the time of contract award. The estimated cost (includes total and LMHC available fee pool) for this contract and the LMHC contract is as follows:

Effective starting in FY 2000, the estimated cost and total available fee for the PHMC only will be established annually by the government and set forth in a modification to this subsection. The total estimated cost (includes total available fee pool) and fee are as follows:
| FY2000 | |||
| Estimated PHMC Cost | Available Fee Pool | Superstretch Fee | Total Fee |
| $620M | $34.5M | $8.5M | $43.0M |
(1) The Government reserves the right to unilaterally increase or decrease the estimated cost in accordance with appropriated funds and Subsection B.5 below.
(2) Estimated cost numbers include fee.
(3) The cost for each of the option years from October 1, 2001, through September 30, 2006, is estimated to be the same as those estimated costs set forth for FY 2001.
The estimated cost for the Transition Period is reflected below:
For the period August 1, 1996, to September 30, 1996, the total estimated cost is $9,500,000.
B.5 AVAILABILITY OF APPROPRIATED FUNDS
The duties and obligations of the Government calling for the expenditure of appropriated funds shall be subject to the availability of funds appropriated by the Congress, which DOE may legally spend or obligate for authorized purposes. Any work performed that exceeds funds currently obligated by BNR controls and specific limitations identified in Contract Modifications to Section B.2.A and Distribution of Obligation Report (for individual orders of work for other DOE offices and non-DOE funded work only), without the written consent of the DOE Contracting Officer, shall be at the Contractors risk.
B.6 RESERVED
B.7 OPTION TO EXTEND THE TERM OF THE CONTRACT
This contract may be extended at the unilateral option of the Government by written notice to the Contractor 120 days prior to the expiration date of this contract. Further, the Contractor agrees that the performance under said extension shall be accomplished within the estimated cost as set forth in B.8 below. The Option Periods may be for a period from one to five years at the unilateral discretion of the Contracting Officer and may be exercised unilaterally for some lessor period. (Also see the contract clause entitled, Exercise of Options.)
B.8 OPTION PERIOD - TOTAL AVAILABLE FEE
The total available fee pool for the Option Periods will include all fee performance incentives or other incentives for both the Contractor and its Major Subcontractors. In no event will the total fee/incentives for the Contractor when added to the total fee/incentives for its Major Subcontractors exceed the total available fee pool shown below for each fiscal year. The Contractors share of cost savings incentives,while subject to the limitations of regulations and statutes, are not necessarily limited by the amount of the fee pool since they are paid out of the cost saved.
The total estimated cost for the Option Periods October 1, 2001, to September 30, 2006, is $4.6825 billion (including fee) for the total five years. The estimated cost per option year is $936,500,000 and is broken down as shown in B.4 for FY 2001 for each year of the option periods. The total available fee pool per option year is $48.3 million.
B.9 OPTIONAL SERVICES
The Government may, at its option and during performance of this contract, unilaterally add any or all of the work scope identified in Section C.5 of this contract as being performed by Lockheed Martin Hanford (LMHC), BNFL, Inc. or Bechtel Hanford Inc. (BHI). An equitable adjustment shall be negotiated for any work appropriately authorized and performed as a result of exercise of any portion of this option.
The addition of such added workscope, if any, shall be subject to the requirements of FAR 52.243.1, Changes - Fixed Price, or FAR 52.243.2, Changes - Cost Reimbursement, depending on contract type.
B.10 EXERCISE OF OPTION(S)
The DOE has included options to purchase additional services and to extend the term of this contract. To demonstrate the value it places on cost efficient quality performance, the Department has provided a mechanism for continuing the contractual relationship with the Contractor if the Contractor performs at a level that meets or exceeds cost efficient quality performance expectations as communicated to the Contractor, in writing, by the Contracting Officer or designated representative. When deciding whether to exercise the option, the Contracting Officer will consider the quality of the Contractors performance and the effectiveness of the Contractors cost control under this contract.
B.11 OPTIONAL TYPES OF CONTRACTS
The Government, at its option, may negotiate various types of contracting arrangements for any portion of this contract, upon award and throughout the duration of the contract, including any modifications made thereto. Such arrangements include, but are not limited to, firm-fixed price, fixed-price-incentive fee, and cost-plus-fixed-fee.
