The scope of this enhancement includes the procurement of hydrazine fuel, the preparation of
documentation for fueling operations, the support of safety and integrated operations meetings, the
provision of equipment needed for SCAPE operation, including personal protection equipment (if
necessary) and fuel transfer cart, and all personnel required to conduct fuel loading operations.
Emergency unloading operations can also be supported if desired. Figure 8.15-2 shows hardware used
by UPC for hydrazine servicing. The recurring price includes costs for de-fueling operations that would
not be required in nominal launch processing.
