Authority List (EAL) allowing contractors onto the installation. The contractor will then be able to go to the Gate directly (not the Visitor Control Center (VCC) or Arnold Gate) and verify if their Dyess Form 173 is there. Should their Dyess Form 173 not be there, they will be directed to the VCC for issuance of an AF Form 75. At this time, someone will physically have to meet them to sponsor them onto the installation. (Reasons why the form would not be at the guard s as illegal alien).

8.2 Trusted Agent Letter for Day Labor Requests. The purpose of this letter is to provide sponsoring authority to specific contractor individuals as identified by their sponsoring agency (7 CONS, Army Corp of Engineers, etc) to sponsor day laborers on for one day periods.

8.2.1. The sponsoring agency, in coordination with their contractor, will identify contractor individuals that require sponsoring/vouching authority. This authority is given to the contractor for the purpose of sponsoring day laborers/job site personnel sub-contracted as a result of an unexpected or new requirement not previously identified in the current contract. This authority will not be given to contractors for convenience only, but should be limited to the smallest group of manager or foreman contractor personnel needed to complete their assigned contract. It is the responsibility of the sponsoring agency to ensure the Trusted Agent Letter remains current.

Additionally, all reasonable actions should occur to prevent use of this process when a known laborer/sub-contractor was required well in advance of the day labor/sub-contractor request.

(Effective Date: Immediately)

8.2.2. The sponsoring agency will provide this letter to the Pass and Registration Section who will maintain it on file. The Pass and Registration section shall post a copy of the letter at the VCC, as a reference, to verify which contractor personnel have sponsoring/vouching authority.

8.2.3. The Process to get Day Labors/Job Site Personnel Sub-Contracted onto the Installation:

The contractor individuals identified in the Trusted Agent Letter will provide a typed or hand-written form (form will be provided by the 7 SFS) with all individuals they will sponsor onto the installation to the VCC Guard. The VCC Guard will verify the identity of all individuals on the form by checking the information against a valid State/Federal Identification card. The VCC

Guard will randomly check a percentage of the individuals via the TLETS. Should any individual not possess a valid identification card, they will be turned away at the VCC and entry to the installation denied. Pen and ink changes can be made to the form, but all information must be validated by the guard before the contractor will be allowed to proceed onto the installation with the sponsored individuals. No AF Form 75/Visitor Pass will be issued to any individual who is sponsored by the Trusted Agent Contractor, unless the sponsored individual will be driving a vehicle onto the installation. Trusted Agent Contractors are encouraged to consolidate all sponsored individuals into the smallest number of vehicles as possible to avoid the issuance of multiple AF Forms 75. Should an AF Form 75 be issued, the driver will be required to registration for the vehicle being operated. Once on the installation, the Trusted Agent Contractor will be responsible for the actions of the sponsored individuals. Should an incident occur with a sponsored guest, and negligence be proven on the part of the Trusted Agent Contractor, their vouching/sponsoring authority will be revoked. The Trusted Agent Letter can be adjusted to add and delete names of Trusted Agent Contractors as needed, as long as the provisions of this paragraph are followed.

Although the 7 SFS form is used in lieu of the AF Form 75, it carries the same authority and responsibilities. Additionally, the 7 SFS Form will expire at 0001 daily or at the end of the contractor duty day, whichever occurs first. At no time will the Trusted Agent Contractor depart the installation and leave any of his/her sponsored individuals with another contractor that does not have the same vouching/sponsoring privileges.

8.2.4. All contractors must attend a contractor briefing given to the contractors by Pass and Registration who will provide a more detailed explanation regarding contractor badges and their uses.
