Contract personnel are critical to the overall security and safety of US Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) installations, facilities and activities, and security awareness training contributes to those efforts. The Department of Defense (DoD) and Army security training requirements specified below, if applicable, are performance requirements; all applicable contract personnel shall complete initial training within 30 days of contract award or the date new contract personnel begin performance on the contract. Within five business days from the completion of training, the Contractor shall provide written documentation (e.g., email or memorandum) to the Government representative. The documentation shall include the names of contract personnel trained and which training they completed; the Contractor shall maintain training records as part of their contract files and be prepared to provide copies of training certificates to the Government representative. Contractor personnel and vehicles are subject to search when entering federal installations. Additionally, all contract personnel shall comply with Force Protection Condition (FPCON) measures, Random Antiterrorism Measures (commonly referred to as “RAMs”), and Health Protection Condition (HPCON) measures. The Contractor is responsible for meeting performance requirements during elevated FPCON and/or HPCON levels in accordance with applicable RA plans and procedures --this includes identifying mission essential and non-mission essential personnel. In addition to the changes otherwise authorized by the changes clause of this contract, should the FPCON or HPCON levels at any individual facility or installation change, the Government may implement security changes that affect contract personnel. The Contractor shall ensure all contract personnel are aware of their security responsibilities, including any site-specific requirements identified in local policies or procedures.

13. ANTITERRORISM (AT) LEVEL I TRAINING:

All contract personnel requiring routine access to Army installations, facilities, and controlled access areas, or requiring network access shall complete initial and annual refresher AT Level I awareness training. Online AT Level I awareness training is available at https://jko.jten.mil/ (website subject to change).

https://jko.jten.mil/

14. FOR ACCESS AND GENERAL PROTECTION POLICY AND PROCEDURES:

All Contractors and sub-contractor employees shall comply with installation and facility access guidelines and rules as stated herein. Contractor workforce must comply with all personal identity verification requirements as directed by Department of Defense, Department of the Army Headquarters, Rock Island District and/or local policy. In addition to the changes otherwise authorized by the Changes clause of this contract, should the Force Protection Condition (FPCON) at any installation or facility change, the Government may require changes in Contractor security matters or processes.

In support of Rock Island District evaluation of personnel authorized for access to federal facilities, the Contractor shall submit background checks that have been conducted by a bonded third party within the last 6 months of Notice to Proceed date and authorize reports to be provided to the Rock Island District Security and Law Enforcement Office by the third party. The background check will cover, at a minimum, the ten years covering states the employee has lived in, national criminal records check which includes felony and misdemeanor offenses, Department of Motor Vehicles records, and a national sex offender registry check, submitted 14 days prior to accessing the project site.

Identification Badges: The Contractor shall be responsible for furnishing a photo identification badge/card to each employee prior to the employee's work on-site, and for requiring each employee engaged on the work to display identification. At a minimum, the badge shall have the following items shown, the employee’s picture, employee’s name, and company name working for. The badge will be prominently displayed unless restricted for safety concerns, in which case it will be available for immediate display upon request (carried on person).

As employees are added or deleted from the submitted and approved Access Control List (ACL), this information will be reported immediately to the Contracting Officer (KO).

Added employees will not be permitted on-site until requirements of this paragraph are completed, submitted, and approved.

Disqualifying factors include, but are not limited to:

(1) Criminal conduct, in particular violent crime and sex offenders;

(2) Habitual use of intoxicating beverages to excess as evidenced by Driving under the influence or public intoxication records; or

(3) Any illegal activity or other disqualification which makes the individual unfit for service (e.g. drug trafficking or procurement fraud).

In addition to the submitted background checks, supplemental agency checks may be performed at the discretion of the Rock Island District security personnel. The Contractor agrees to cooperate and ensure that Contractor personnel provide any documentation required to complete these checks. Any person lacking proper identification credentials or deemed a security threat may be denied access to the project.

Such action in no way relieves the Contractor from performance of the Contract. The Rock Island District retains the right to deny any Contractor and sub-contractor employee from working on a contract awarded by the Rock Island District based on final background investigation results. All information received as a result of a background check will be handled according to Privacy Act regulation.

In the event that an unexpected change in personnel is required, due to sudden absence of a critical path employee, the Contractor shall immediately contact the Contracting Officer to coordinate obtaining written approval from the Security Office for new/additional personnel to be brought on site prior to background check acceptance. Contractor shall submit Personnel Change Request Form and will receive written authorization from the Security Office prior to bringing new personnel on site, and ensure a background check is sent to the Rock Island District Security Office no later than ten days from written notice of approval. The Rock Island District reserves the right to terminate access of the employee upon completion of the Government’s review of the background check and the Contractor shall be notified immediately of any such Government decision.

In the event of an unforeseen change in work site conditions which may require a contract modification, and the contractor is required to immediately add personnel, a Personnel Change Request Form will be submitted to and approved by the Security Office prior to bringing new personnel on site, and ensure a background check is sent to the Rock Island District Security Office no later than ten days from written notice of approval. The Rock Island District reserves the right to terminate access of the employee upon completion of the Government’s review of the background check and the Contractor shall be notified immediately of any such Government decision.

Subcontractor personnel not expected to be on the worksite for more than 15 days may be allowed on site with the following conditions:

1) Employee will be on site a total of 15 days or less, for the duration of the project.

2) Employee is added to the ACL as a short term employee.

3) Employee is escorted while on site. This is defined as being in the line of sight of an identified contractor employee who has a background check on file with the Rock Island District (as noted on the ACL).
