Operations and Maintenance Phase. The City shall pay [$1 million less the funding received under the Beach Trolley Agreement] ($ ) to PSTA annually per fiscal year from the date the BRT Route first begins operations through the Contract Term. Such annual payments shall be due and payable on the date the BRT Route is first operated and shall be due and payable on October 1 of each year that the BRT Route is in service. Such annual payment shall be prorated for the first fiscal year if the first day of operations is any day other than October 1. Such annual payment shall also be prorated if the Contract Term expires during a fiscal year for any reason other than termination pursuant to section 9(b) of this Agreement. Annually in May, PSTA will present to the City the annual operating and maintenance cost for service within the City to include in the City budget. Any planned capital replacement will also be presented at this time.
Operations and Maintenance Phase. For each T.O. Phase, the Utility will provide a cost estimate and preliminary scope of services. The Government may proceed with a Phase of the T.O. only after it has received a complete scope of work and a price for that Phase from the Utility. For example, a military base may sign the T.O. and commit to move ahead with the Feasibility Phase but it is not obligated to do anything more than complete the Feasibility Study. If the Government decides not to proceed to the next Phase, it owes the Utility the cost of the Audit, if applicable, or if not, the Feasibility Study and interest (Carrying Charge) on money used to conduct the audit or study. If it decides to move to the next Phase, the cost of the Feasibility Study and its Carrying Charge may be rolled into the cost of the next Phase. Should the Government decide to implement the project, the costs for earlier Phases will be included in the ECM Cost financing. With respect to the O&M Phase, the Model Agreement recommends that O&M services and their scope, term, warranty and payment, be negotiated as a Phase separate from the Implementation Phase. Generally, O&M services will not be financed but will be paid out of savings generated by the project on an ongoing basis. The last paragraph of Section 18 reflects an important part of the Model Agreement. Due to the extremely wide range of potential projects, services and combinations thereof that could be pursued under the Model Agreement, it is impossible to identify the FAR clauses, other than those listed in Section 23, that may apply to a specific Task Order. Therefore, in an effort to make the contracting process as streamlined and flexible as possible, the Model Agreement assumes that the Contracting Officers will determine what FAR provisions should be included in the Delivery/Task Order.
