Barges. Upon arrival of any barge transporting material to a Landfarm at the direction of NESI or any of its Affiliates, USL shall have the right to have an independent third party inspector selected by USL undertake an inspection of the barge transporting material to the Landfarm for the purpose of determining (a) the volume of materials delivered and (b) the condition of the barge on arrival at the Landfarm. The costs of such inspector shall be split evenly between NESI and USL, and NESI's portion of such expense shall be included on the monthly invoices prepared by USL in accordance with Section 4.3. Before any materials are off-loaded from the barge or any inspection or testing is undertaken by USL, the independent inspector will provide the authorized representatives of NESI and USL with an inspector's report indicating the time and date, the barge identification number and volume of waste materials in the barge. The authorized representatives of the parties will indicate their acceptance of the inspector's report by signing the report. In the event either authorized representative disagrees with the volume determination, either authorized representative may request that an additional independent third-party inspector prepare an inspector's report, the cost of which shall be borne by the party requesting the same. If the parties are unable to agree on the actual volume of waste after the preparation of the second inspector's report, the two independent inspectors shall select a third independent inspector to prepare an inspector's report, the cost of which will be borne half by NESI and half by USL. The final volume determination shall be that volume agreed upon by the majority of the independent inspectors that have inspected the barge. If the barge appears to be damaged in any significant respect, the inspector shall summarize the apparent damage and take photographs as appropriate to evidence the scope of the damage. The authorized representative of NESI shall approve such damage summary by executing the same prior to the time any material is off-loaded from the barge. With regard to barges owned and operated by NESI, USL agrees that it shall not exercise its right to implement the procedures set forth in this Section 6.4.1 unless the parties have previously had a dispute or disagreement relating to the quantity of materials delivered to a Landfarm by NESI or the condition of a barge owned and operated by NESI and such dispute or disagreement was not amicably resolved within 30 days.
