In the event of a conflict between this contract and any FLETC Directive, Regulation or Instruction the contract prevails.

B.2 Operation On The Facility Safety

The Contractor shall conduct the operation(s) under this contract in strict conformance with all FLETC safety directives and Federal, State, and local requirements and with all applicable provisions of 29 CFR Part 1910 and 1926 of the Occupational Safety and Health Act (OSHA) and USACE EM-385-1-1.

The Contractor shall conform to all safety rules and requirements in effect on the award date of this contract and shall take such additional precautions as the Contracting Officer (CO) may reasonably require for safety and accident prevention purposes while performing any work under this contract. The Contractor agrees to take all reasonable steps and precautions to prevent accidents and preserve the life and health of Contractor and Government personnel performing in any way under this contract.

The Contractor shall make contract personnel available for Government furnished safety and occupational training for an estimate of two (2) hours to four (4) hours annually per individual.

The Contractor shall observe all OSHA, FLETC, and National Fire Prevention Association (NFPA) requirements for handling and storage of combustible supplies, materials, waste, and trash. If combustible materials are to be stored on the premises, the Contractor shall obtain Government approval, label the containers with the fire hazard potential of the materials and store the containers in fire-rated locking metal cabinets.

B.2.4 Traffic Regulations Contractor and subcontractor personnel operating motor vehicles on FLETC shall observe traffic regulations and posted speed limits except as defined elsewhere in this contract. The only exception to posted speed limits is passing jogging formations, when speed shall be reduced to 15 mph. Traffic laws are enforced on the Center and violations shall be assessed penalty points, which can result in revocation of driving privileges on Center.

B.2.5 Weapons Contractor and subcontractor personnel are not permitted to bring privately owned firearms, weapons, or ammunition on the Center. This restriction includes handguns, rifles, shotguns, hunting bow and arrows, etc. All privately owned firearms, weapons, and ammunition must be surrendered/checked in at the main gate upon entry to FLETC.

B.2.6 Supervision of Contractor Personnel The Contractor's personnel shall remain under the Contractor's direct supervision at all times.

Although the Government will coordinate direction within the scope of the contract, detailed instructions for the Contractor's personnel's performance and supervision shall remain the sole responsibility of the Contractor.

B.3 Medical Treatment Only emergency medical care is available in Government facilities to Contractor personnel who suffer on-the-job injury. The Government will NOT perform physical examinations on Contractor personnel except as specified elsewhere in this contract. Government emergency vehicles and medical personnel may be used as the first point of treatment in emergency situations affecting Contractor personnel suffering pain or whose life or limb may be in danger.

Transfer to other than Government medical treatment facilities shall be affected by the Local Rescue Squad or Security Vehicle as determined necessary by attending medical authorities. The Contractor shall render payment for care at the rates established by the CO as equitable with like services rendered in the local community. Upon receipt of a statement of charges, reimbursement will be made by the Contractor as a credit to the next billing invoice. Cost of these emergency services shall be incurred and borne by the Contractor as non-reimbursable by the Government.

B.4 Subcontracting The Government reserves the right to approve or disapprove subcontractors for any work required by this contract. The Contractor shall obtain the CO's written approval of all subcontractors and provide copies of approved subcontracts.

B.5 Order Of Work The Contractor shall arrange the work so that it will not cause interference with the normal conduct of Government business or with the progress of other Contractors' projects. The Contractor shall submit all work schedules for approval by the COR. The Contractor shall adhere to the established schedules.

B.6 Other Contracts The Government may award third party contracts for additional work at or near the site of work under this contract. The Contractor shall fully cooperate with the other contractors and with Government employees and shall carefully adapt scheduling and performing the work under this contract to accommodate the additional work, heeding any direction that may be provided by the CO. The Contractor shall not commit or permit any act that will interfere with the performance of work by any other contractor or by Government employees.

B.7 Disruption Of Contractor Work Schedule The Contractor shall promptly notify the CO and the COR when it appears that Government activities or personnel or other contractor's projects are hindering the effective execution of its work efforts.

B.8 Rights Of The Government To Perform Functions With Its Own Personnel The Government reserves the right to perform or supplement performance of contract functions with Government personnel during periods of disaster, war emergencies, police actions, or acts of God. Such performance shall not constitute a breach of contract by the Government within the meaning of the contract clause FAR 52.212-4 entitled "Termination for Cause".

The Contractor agrees under such circumstances to permit the Government to use any essential Contractor-furnished property. The Government will equitably compensate the Contractor for use of such property.

B.9 Government Performance Of Services During Labor Strikes Because the services called for under this contract are of critical importance to FLETC, the Government reserves the right to take over or supplement performance of this contract in the event of a labor strike by the Contractor's personnel which impairs the Contractor's ability to satisfactorily perform the contract. Under such circumstances and at the direction of the CO, the

Contractor agrees not to interfere in any way with Government performance. The Contractor further agrees under such circumstances to permit the Government to use any essential contractor-furnished property. The Government will equitably compensate the Contractor for use of such property.

The Contractor will not be entitled to payment for any performance period, in part or in total, during which the Government assumes performance under this clause. This clause does not limit the Government's rights under any other clause of this contract, including but not limited to, "Termination for Cause”; “Termination for Convenience”, and "Inspection/Acceptance” in accordance with FAR 52.212-4(a).

B.10 Conservation Contractor and subcontractor personnel shall actively participate in all energy conservation efforts and programs applicable to work performed under this contract. The Contractor shall instruct its personnel and subcontractors in utilities conservation policies.

B.13 Photography No photography, of any nature, is allowed while on FLETC without the written authorization of the CO. Submit photography requests to the CO at least two (2) business days prior to anticipated photo session.

B.14 Conduct Of Personnel The CO may require the Contractor to remove from the job site any individual under this contract for reasons of misconduct, security, suspected or found to be under the influence of alcohol, drugs, or other incapacitating agent. Contractor and subcontractor personnel shall be subject to dismissal from the premises upon determination by the CO that such action is in the best interests of the Government. The CO has the authority to bar individuals from the installation. Such removal from the job site or dismissal from the premises shall not relieve the

Contractor of the requirement to provide sufficient personnel to perform the services as required by this performance work statement.

B.15 Contractor Vehicles All Contractor vehicles operated on Government property shall be in operable condition, maintained in good repair, and meet all local, State and Federal safety requirements. Vehicles found to be unsafe or unable to function as designed shall be removed from the job site immediately.

B.16 Permits The Contractor shall without additional expense to the Government obtain all appointments, licenses, and permits required for the prosecution of the work and for compliance with all applicable Federal, State and local laws, regulations, and codes. Evidence of such shall be provided to the CO upon request.

The Contractor shall ensure that all Contractor personnel who will be driving a vehicle in support of this contract possess required license, prior to driving that vehicle. This specifically includes personnel operating FLETC Government owned vehicles in the performance of roles.

B.17 Environmental Protection The Contractor shall comply with all applicable environmental protection requirements including all Federal, State and local laws and regulations. All environmental protection matters shall be coordinated with the CO or designated representative. In the event that a regulatory agency assesses a monetary fine against the Government for violations caused by the Contractor, or contractor equipment, personnel, etc., the Contractor shall reimburse the Government for that portion of the fine and associated costs for which the Contractor is responsible.

B.18 Access To Buildings It shall be the Contractor's responsibility, through the COR, to obtain access to buildings and to arrange for each room/area to be opened and closed as necessary in performance of contract requirements. The Contractor shall be responsible for safeguarding all Government property and securing facilities, equipment, and materials at the end of each work period.

B.19 Key Control Keys to include keyless entry cards or other similar control devices will be issued to the Contractor as appropriate. The Contractor shall receive, service, and account for all keys issued for use in the performance of this contract. The Contractor shall develop a system of key control and submit the written plan for the CO's approval five (5) days prior to contract start. This plan shall become a part of the quality control plan. The Contractor's plan shall ensure that all keys and lock combinations issued to the Contractor by the Government are not lost, misplaced, or used by unauthorized persons.

Neither the Contractor, nor any Contractor personnel, shall duplicate or fabricate any Government key in its custody. Should replacement keys be required, the Contractor shall submit a WRITTEN REQUEST to the COR. The Contractor shall report loss or unauthorized duplication of Government issued keys to the CO or his/her designated representative within 48 hours of learning of the loss or duplication by Contractor and subcontractor personnel.

The Contractor shall control access to all Government provided lock combinations to preclude unauthorized entry. The Contractor shall immediately notify the COR when lock combinations have been compromised.

Should the security of a facility become compromised by the loss of a key by Contractor personnel, the Contractor shall be responsible for replacement cost for rekeying of locks or lock replacements as determined appropriate by the CO. In the event a master key is lost or duplicated, all locks and keys for that system shall be replaced and replacement cost borne by the Contractor.

Contractor personnel shall not allow anyone the use of any Government key in their possession.

They shall not open locked rooms or areas to permit entrance by persons other than Contractor personnel performing assigned duties. Any room unlocked by Contractor at the start of work shall not be left unattended during the service process and shall be re-locked by Contractor personnel after completion of their service duties.

B.20 Disclosure Of Information

DISCLOSURE OF INFORMATION

a. The Contractor is reminded that information furnished under this contract may be subject to disclosure under the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA). Therefore, all items that are confidential to business, or contain trade secrets, proprietary, or personnel information must be clearly marked. Marking of items will not necessarily preclude disclosure when FLETC or the Government determines disclosure is warranted by the FOIA. However, if such items are not marked, all information contained within the submitted documents will be deemed releasable.

b. Any information made available to the Contractor by the Government must be used only for carrying out the provisions of this Contract and must not be divulged or made known in any manner to any person except as may be necessary in the performance of the contract.

Each officer or employee of the Contractor or any of its subcontractors to whom any Government record may be made available or disclosed must be notified in writing by the Contractor that information disclosed to such officer or employee can be used only for the purpose and to the extent authorized herein, and that further disclosure of any such information, by any means, for a purpose or to an extent unauthorized herein, may subject the offender to criminal sanctions imposed by 19 U.S.C. 641.19 U.S.C. 641. This section provides, in pertinent part, that whoever knowingly converts to their use or the use of another, or without authority, sells, conveys, or disposes of any record of the United States or whoever receives the same with intent to convert it to their use or gain, knowing it to have been converted, shall be guilty of a crime punishable by a fine of up to $10,000, or imprisoned up to ten years, or both.

B.21 Implementation Of E.O. 13224-Executive Order On Terrorist Financing The Contractor is reminded that U.S. Executive Orders and U.S. law prohibits transactions with, and the provision of resources and support to, individuals and organizations associated with terrorism. It is the legal responsibility of the Contractor to ensure compliance with the United States Executive Orders and laws.

B.22 Advertising of Award The Contractor shall not refer to awards in commercial advertising in such a manner as to state or imply that the product or service provided is endorsed or preferred by the Federal Government or is considered by the Government to be superior to other products or services.

B.23 Damage Reports In all instances where Government property or equipment is damaged by Contractor personnel, the Contractor shall submit a full written report of the facts and extent of such to the COR within 24 hours.

B.24 Property Damage And Personal Injuries The Contractor shall assume full responsibility for any and all damages or claims for damage for injury to persons, property, or equipment which results from any service performed under this contract. The Contractor shall repair or replace to the satisfaction of the CO or his representative any surfaces, fixtures, furnishings, structures, equipment, material, or supplies which were damaged by Contractor personnel. The Contractor shall abide by the decision of the CO whether to repair or to replace items, property, or structures when damage is caused by any of the above.

The Contractor shall accomplish such repair or replacement at no cost to the Government within five (5) business days following occurrence of the damage unless otherwise agreed upon by the

CO.

B.25 Indemnity And Liability The Contractor shall exercise reasonable care and use the Contractor's best efforts to prevent accidents, injury, or damage to all persons and property in and about the work and to the facility or part(s) thereof upon which work is done.

The Contractor shall indemnify and hold harmless the Government against any and all liability claims and costs for injury to any property (Government or otherwise) arising from the occupancy, use, service, operation or performance of work in connection with this contract resulting in whole or in part from the negligent acts or fault of the Contractor or any subcontractor, or any employee, agent or representative of the Contractor or any subcontractor.

The Government will in no way be responsible for damages or loss occasioned by fire, theft, and accident or otherwise to the Contractor's stored supplies, materials, equipment, or its personnel's personal belongings.

The Contractor shall indemnify the Government against any and all liability claims for injuries, or death of any person and for loss or damage to any property occurring in connection with the occupancy, use, service, operation, or performance of work in connection with this contract resulting from the negligent acts or fault of the Contractor, any subcontractor, any employee, agent, or representative of the Contractor or subcontractor.

B.26 Contractor Liability For Acts Of God The Contractor shall not be held responsible for damages incurred as a result of an Act of God, including but not limited to: flood, lightning, hurricane, tornado, earthquake, and unusually severe weather conditions documented by the National Weather Service as differing from the norm for this geographical area. The Contractor shall take all necessary precautions or measures to protect Government property and equipment if warning is given. If the Contractor is found to be negligent in his efforts to minimize damages, the Government shall hold the Contractor liable for those damages and associated costs.

B.27 Insurance The Contractor shall procure and maintain insurance at the Contractor’s expense during the term of the contract and any extensions. Before starting work under this contract, the Contractor shall certify to the CO in writing that the required insurance has been obtained. Within 10 days after the award of this contract, the Contractor shall furnish to the CO a certificate of insurance as evidence of the existence of the following insurance coverage in amounts not less than the minimum amounts specified below:

The general liability policy shall name "The United States of America, acting by and through the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), Federal Law Enforcement Training Center (FLETC)" as an additional insured with respect to operations performed under this contract.

The Certificate of Insurance shall provide for a minimum of 30 days written notice to the CO by the insurance company prior to cancellation or material change in policy coverage.

B.28 Holidays

a. The Government recognizes the following holidays: New Year's Day, Birthday of Martin Luther King Jr., Washington’s Birthday (President's Day), Memorial Day, Juneteenth National Independence Day, Independence Day, Labor Day, Columbus Day, Veteran's Day, Thanksgiving Day and Christmas Day.

*If a holiday falls on a Saturday, for most Federal employees, the preceding Friday will be treated as a holiday for pay and leave purposes. (See 5 U.S.C. 6103(b).) If a holiday falls on a Sunday, for most Federal employees, the following Monday will be treated as a holiday for pay and leave purposes. (See Section 3(a) of Executive Order 11582, February 11, 1971.) See also our Federal Holidays – "In Lieu Of" Determination Fact Sheet at https://www.opm.gov/policy-data-oversight/pay-leave/work-schedules/fact-sheets/Federal-Holidays-In-Lieu-Of- Determination.

**This holiday is designated as "Washington’s Birthday" in section 6103(a) of title 5 of the United States Code, which is the law that specifies holidays for Federal employees. Though other institutions such as state and local governments and private businesses may use other names, it is our policy to always refer to holidays by the names designated in the law.

b. The Federal holidays listed above are holidays granted to Federal employees. The Contractor shall refer to the individual wage determination for actual holidays to be allowed for contractor employees. In the event that any of these holidays occur on a Saturday or Sunday, they shall be observed by the Contractor per the practice observed by the Government.

c. Occasionally, Federal holidays will be declared normal training days and full Contractor support will be required. Notice of this requirement will be given to the Contractor at least one week in advance.

d. The Contractor shall NOT receive premium rates for any special declared holiday for Federal employees (e.g., National Day of Mourning for death of a former president).

e. The FLETC may schedule non-training days, for example the Friday after Thanksgiving Day and on day before or after Christmas Day; however, this is not a Federal Holiday and does not relieve the Contractor from the PM responsibilities on the non-training days.

B.29 Hours Of Operation Normal work hours are from 7:30 a.m. through 4:30 p.m., Monday through Friday unless otherwise defined in individual specification sections.

Notwithstanding the provisions of FAR clause 52.222-4, Contract Work Hours and Safety Standards Act – Overtime Compensation, work will NOT be permitted outside normal work hours, on Saturdays, Sundays, or federal holidays unless coordinated and approved by the Government Project Manager and Contracting Officer in advance. A request to work outside normal work hours must be submitted a minimum of two (2) working days in advance of the date on which such work is anticipated. The exclusion of work on Saturdays, Sundays, and holidays has been considered in computing the performance time of this contract.

B.30 Physical And Personnel Security Requirements (Updated October 2019 OSPR)

B.30.1 General Requirements

a. Contractor and subcontractor personnel in the performance of this contract or any representative of the Contractor entering the FLETC shall abide by all FLETC security regulations which may be in effect during the contract period. Any such individual(s) shall be subject to those security inspections which may be deemed necessary by the FLETC to ensure that no security violations occur during the course of the contract. It shall be the Contractor's responsibility to ensure that each applicant who is expected to perform on FLETC facilities or that requires routine access to FLETC facilities shall complete the most current versions of FLETC FTC-SEM-17 Badge Application Request form , DHS Form 11000-25, Contractor Fitness/Screening Request Form, U.S Citizen and Immigration Services (USCIS) Employment Eligibility Verification I-9, Office of Personnel Management (OPM) Declaration for Federal Employment form OF-306, DHS Non-Disclosure 11000-6, and Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) Fingerprint Card FD-258 in order to undergo a suitability background investigation which will be either a fingerprint check, a National Agency Check with Written Inquiries (Tier 1) or a Minimum Background Investigation (Tier 2).

1) If an Tier 2 or Tier 1 investigation is required, Contractor and subcontractor personnel will be required to complete a Standard Form 85 , Questionnaire for Non-Sensitive Positions, or SF 85P, Questionnaire for Public Trust Positions.
