10 U.S.C. § 8670 — Contracts for nuclear ships: sales of naval shipyard articles and services to private shipyards
submitted 27 years ago by Pub. L. 106-65 to r/title-10-ARMED-FORCES · 114 words · no verdicts yet
Naval shipyards may sell parts and services to private shipyards building Navy nuclear ships. Certain legal conditions normally required for such sales do not apply here. But a naval shipyard still cannot build the whole ship or do most of the work itself.
Normally, before a naval shipyard sells articles or services to a private party, certain conditions in section 2208(j)(1)(B) and section 2563(a)(1) and (c)(1)(A) must be met. This section says those conditions do not apply when a naval shipyard sells articles or services to a private shipyard, if the private shipyard asked for them to help it finish a Department of Defense contract for a nuclear ship. But this section does not let a naval shipyard build a whole nuclear ship for the private shipyard, do most of the work called for in the private shipyard's contract, or provide anything the private shipyard did not ask for.
The conditions set forth in section 2208(j)(1)(B) of this title and subsections (a)(1) and (c)(1)(A) of section 2563 of this title shall not apply to a sale by a naval shipyard of articles or services to a private shipyard that is made at the request of the private shipyard in order to facilitate the private shipyard’s fulfillment of a Department of Defense contract with respect to a nuclear ship. This section does not authorize a naval shipyard to construct a nuclear ship for the private shipyard, to perform a majority of the work called for in a contract with a private entity, or to provide articles or services not requested by the private shipyard.
