16.  Reference D.21.8.1 Rates of Payment Dozer$1,000/day $800 Minimum Daily Guarantee $4.00/mile Dozer ordered on May 3. Transport w/Dozer travels 250 miles to incident arriving May 3. Transport is retained until both released on May 7, does not move after it arrives. Travels 250 miles home on May 6. How is this paid for the incident?

17. Payment for Dozer w/Retained Transport DozerTransport May 3$1,000$1,000 May 4$1,000$ 800 May 5$1,000$ 800 May 6$1,000$1,000 Transport payment = 250 miles x $4.00/mile or $1,000 MDG, whichever is greater.

19.  PAYMENT WILL BE MADE AT THE RATE (DAILY, WEEKLY, MONTHLY) THAT IS MOST ADVANTAGEOUS TO THE GOVERNMENT. FOR PAYMENT PURPOSES, THE PAYMENT COMPUTATION WILL START OVER AFTER EACH 7 DAY PERIOD AND AFTER THE 30TH DAY FOR ANY PERIOD OF TIME UNDER HIRE. ◦ Gov pays whatever is lowest!  How do we: ◦ Record on the shift ticket? ◦ Enter into ISUITE? ◦ Calculate payment when released?

20.  Shift Ticket ◦ Record Daily, Every couple days as needed  ISUITE ◦ Keep in mind the total might change based on length of assignment ◦ Recommend entering daily for COST purposes ◦ Calculate final payment at demob ◦ May have to revise ISUITE entries

21. Trailer Mounted Handwash Trailer $1,000/day$5,000/week$15,000/month  Worked 6 days: ◦ 6 days x $1,000 = $6,000 ◦ 1 week x$5,000 = $5,000  Worked 16 days: ◦ 16 days x $1,000 = $16,000 ◦ 1 month x $15,000= $15,000 ◦ 2 weeks x $5,000 + 2 day x $1,000= $12,000  Worked 31 days ◦ 31 days x $1,000= $31,000 ◦ 4 weeks x $5,000 + 3 days x $1,000= $23,000 ◦ 1 month x $15,000 + 1 day x $1,000= $16,000

22.  Calculate Mechanic Services ◦ Deduction for Kr ◦ Use Exhibit K for mechanic services at incident ◦ $75/Hour for work on Kr’s Equipment ◦ Post as a deduction in ISUITE or invoice  Check Kr’s shift ticket ◦ Should show time Equipment was down, being serviced, etc.

23.  Per D.21.8.3 Exceptions:  a. No further payment will accrue during any period that resource under hire is not in a safe or operable condition or it is not available for the assigned shift or portions of the assigned shift. Payment will be based on the hours the resource was operational during the assigned shift, as documented on the shift ticket versus the designated shift, as shown on the Incident Action Plan.

24.  Shift According to IAP is 0600-1800  Dozer is paid $1,200/day  Dozer starts work at 0600 and is broke down from1200 – 1400. Adjustment is calculated as: $1,200 (daily rate) / 12 hours (per IAP) = $100/hour. Breakdown = 2 hours x $100 = $200 Payment = $1,200 (daily rate) - $200 = $1,000

25. DOUBLE SHIFT equipment is staffed with two operators or crews (one per shift). There will be no compensation for a double shift unless a separate operator is ordered in writing for the second shift. Agency personnel at the Section Chief level may, by resource order, authorize a second operator if needed during the assignment. Double shifts, when ordered, will be paid at 165% of the daily rate.

26. Key Points: 1. Must have 2 crews or operators 2. Can be approved by Section Chief (recommend via General Message). 3. Must be documented on Resource Order 4. Paid 165% of Single Shift Additional Points: 1. Double shift not defined for Resources with Minimum Daily Guarantee (i.e. transport). 2. DS Rate of Schedule of Items is for the Heavy Equipment! 3. Recommend 165% of MDG or negotiating for transport. 4. Single Operator – 65% of 165% rate… or MDG x 1.0725.

27. Transport MDG - $1,150 Double Shift Paid 165% of $1,150 = $1,897.50 Single Operator Paid 65% of $1,897.50 = $1,233.38
