2) Whenever a ceiling tile of any kind is removed, it must be removed slowly and as level as possible. Workers need to check as soon as they can see on top of the tile if there is any debris laying on top, such as a piece of pipe insulation or other bldg materials in general. If there is debris, the worker should re-install the tile and notify his supervisor and COR so the proper measure can be taken to remove whatever debris is found.

3) All contractors at a minimum must wear the following Personnel Protective Equipment while working on/in/above the ceiling and/or removing ceiling tiles:

* Safety glasses with side shields or goggles

PAGE 19 OF 109 1333ND23QNB190061

All foreign nationals shall comply with United States Department of Commerce DAO 2017-12 - http://www.osec.doc.gov/opog/dmp/daos/dao207_12.html

For US Citizens and Resident Aliens, the following badging applies:

Paper Badge (Visitor Paper Pass) is issued for construction/service areas on a very limited basis. A Paper Badge is only available for 10 campus visits per calendar year an is not renewable unless an exception is approved. There are circumstances were service providers with only periodic access requirements can receive a Paper Badge for up to one year.

A Paper Badge is issued for construction/service areas that meet the following criteria:

• Visiting NIST to complete aspects of the badging process to include badge issuance

• NIST Public Access Spaces

• Purely exterior construction with no requirement to enter Department of

Commerce/NIST facilities.

• Locations where work areas are partitioned and/or fully separated from occupied areas, with isolated entrances and exits for construction/maintenance contractors.

• Delivery drivers (material, equipment, etc.)

• Concrete trucks

Contract personnel with a Paper Badge must be escorted by a properly trained person if entrance to secure areas is required.

A Yellow Badge (Limited Access Pass) is issued for construction/service areas that meet the following criteria –

• NIST Public Access Space

• Purely exterior construction with no requirement to enter Department of

Commerce/NIST facilities

• Locations where work areas are partitioned and/or fully separated from occupied areas, with isolated entrances and exits for construction/maintenance contractors.

• COMPLETE Limited Access badge applications are approved/disapproved within

7 days of submission to the COR.

Yellow Badges are available for contract personnel for up to 180 calendar days every two years (24 months) commencing with the issuance of the Badge. If a contract employee exceeds the 180 days access within 24 months, they will be denied renewal or another Yellow Badge until the next 24-month period. If an extension to the Yellow

PAGE 27 OF 109 1333ND23QNB190061

Badge is required and exceeds the original 180 day requirement, the contract personnel must be processed in NAIS for a Green Badge.

Contract personnel with a Yellow Badge must be escorted by a properly trained person if entrance to secure areas is required.

A Green Badge (Site Access Card) is issued for access to all construction/service areas.

On occasion, a Personal Identification (PIV) Card may be issued. Green Badges have two categories: Those issued for less than 180 days and those issued for greater than 180 days. The difference is the required background investigation required to obtain badge.

• The Green Badge is the preferred badge for all NIST construction personnel.

• The Green Badge is renewable. However, if approved for less than 180 calendar days and an extension exceeding 180 days is required, a new background investigation is required and may delay the extension request.

• The Green Badge processing is broken into distinctive background check requirements once the COMPLETE badge application is submitted to the COR.

o A Green Badge application for less than 180 calendar days is subject to a Special Agency Check (SAC) background check.

o A Green Badge application for 180 days or greater (up to two years) is subject to a National Agency Check with Inquiries (NACI) background check.

o The badge application is entered/processed into the NIST Associate Information Systemwithin 8 days of accurate information submission to the COR.

o For badge applications exceeding 179 days, Contract employee are invited/emailed to complete the on-line security check application https://www.opm.gov/investigations/e-qip-application/ Contract employee must monitor his/her email for the invitation E-QIP invitation expires 14 days after it is emailed **. If expired, a new request must be made.

E-QIP invitation will be sent to the applicant within 16 days of submission to the COR o Once the contract employee completes the E-QIP application, Department of…
