In addition, the contractor shall provide adequate space to store a pickup truck and semi-tractor and trailer for the duration of the project.

A rod-trough that extends beyond the bow of the vessel shall be constructed to accommodate rod string lay-downs during drilling operations. The contractor shall provide sufficient working area around the drill rig to allow the crew to safely conduct drilling operations; this may require construction of additional deck space.
