Tank Truck Detention Fee Service

The contract pertains to the billing of detention fees for contractor-owned tank trucks that experience extended delays during unloading at military facilities in Iwakuni, Japan. These fees are imposed when unloading operations are delayed beyond reasonable timeframes due to factors within the control of the military facility, ensuring that contractors are fairly compensated for the additional time and operational costs incurred. The service is classified under NAICS code 484220, which covers truck transportation of liquids and gases, indicating that the work involves specialized tanker operations essential to military logistics. This subcontract falls under the jurisdiction of the Defense Logistics Agency, a component of the Department of Defense, and is tied to the award contract SPE60126D1508 with delivery order SPE60126FL01E. The arrangement ensures accountability and financial equity by formalizing a procedure for charging detention fees when delays disrupt scheduled transport operations. While specific financial terms, rate structures, or time thresholds for detention are not detailed here, the contract establishes the framework for reimbursing contractors for time-based losses caused by unforeseen or uncontrollable delays at designated military sites in Iwakuni.
