Which is not a responsibility of the major command fuels engineer's representative during tank cleaning?

The role of a major command fuels engineer's representative during tank cleaning encompasses various responsibilities aimed at ensuring safety and compliance with regulations. One of those responsibilities includes inspecting the contractor’s equipment to ensure it meets necessary standards, as well as advising the contractor of any known potential hazards that may impact safety during operations. Additionally, the representative typically acts as a quality assurance evaluator to ensure that the work being performed adheres to the contract specifications and safety standards.

The responsibility to stop the contractor’s work for contracting violations is not inherently within the scope of the representative's duties. While the representative may have concerns about safety and compliance, the decision to halt operations for contractual breaches usually falls under the purview of a contracting officer or a designated authority, who has the formal power to enforce contract compliance. The representative's role is more focused on oversight and guidance rather than direct enforcement actions like stopping work.
