5.8 Security Clearance Requirements

5.8.1 The Contractor shall abide by requirements set forth in the DD Form 254, NISPOM, and as directed by DSS, for the protection of classified information, if the contract requires access to classified information. The National Regulatory Commission has been identified as agencies which require the PSOs to have Top Secret Clearances, unless otherwise noted.

5.8.1.1 The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) has developed the FBI Security Addendum (Exhibit 15) to outline the security eligibility for their locations. The FBI does not accept Interim Secret Clearances.

5.8.2 The Contractor and all applicable Contractor Employees shall receive clearances pursuant to Defense Industrial Security Regulations or other applicable regulations.

5.8.3 A Contractor Employee may not work at a classified post until a Visit Authorization Request Letter(s) (VAR) or a final clearance is received.

5.8.4 The Contractor shall comply with applicable subsections below as identified by the CO;

5.8.4(b) The Government will sponsor the Contractor for a facility clearance, if contract performance requires access to classified information and the Contractor selected for award does not possess a facility security clearance that is equal to level for work on this contract as specified in Section 5.7.2.

5.9 Security Clearance Determinations

5.9.1 A security clearance determination is a process, separate and distinct from a fitness determination.

Personnel security clearances applications, SF Form 86, Questionnaire for National Security Positions, are available through the OPM e-QIP system.

5.9.2 The minimum investigative standards for access to Secret classified information shall be a National Agency Check with Law and Credit (NACLC).2

5.9.3 The minimum investigative standard for access to Top Secret classified information shall bea Single Scope Background Investigation (SSBI).

5.9.4 The Contractor shall only submit security packages on prospective employees whose integrity, credit, and character shall meet fitness and security requirements of this contract.

2 While DISCO facilitates adjudication of the NACLC, the FPS personnel security office will concurrently schedule and adjudicate a Minimum Background Investigation to make a Moderate Risk Position fitness determination.
