a. All non-resident/non-immigrant aliens must have approval prior to being permitted access to Tobyhanna Army Depot (TYAD). Such approval must be obtained by requesting access through the following: apply at the alien-resident's embassy; proceed to the U.S. Embassy; proceed to the

Department of the Army; proceed to Army Materiel Command; proceed to U.S. Communications-Electronics Command; proceed to TYAD.

b. All non-resident/non-immigrant aliens granted access to TYAD are required to be escorted by Government personnel. One Government escort can accommodate a maximum of two non-resident/non-immigrant aliens.

c. Due to limited availability of Government personnel, contractors shall not be permitted to employ non-resident/non-immigrant aliens as part of the contractor's on-site workforce. Limited exceptions to this restriction may be considered on a case-by-case basis. Such exceptions shall only be considered where a specialized skill or trade is not otherwise available, and even under such circumstances would only be considered for very limited duration, e.g., a few hours/days. However, even if limited exception is considered, access may still be denied. Contractors whose personnel are either denied entry to TYAD or permitted limited entry to TYAD due to the security requirements pertaining to non-resident aliens/non-immigrants are not relieved of their obligation to provide the required contract performance and must do so at no additional cost to the Government. Any contractor failing to perform or that fails to perform in a timely manner under such circumstances may be terminated for default or other contractual remedies as appropriate.

d. Due to limited availability of Government personnel, visitors requiring escort may not be permitted access, or access may be limited to a certain time and duration.

2. FOR THE PURPOSE OF FORMAL ESCORTED SITE VISITS

Resident aliens (immigrants) in possession of a valid Form I-551, Alien Registration Receipt Card ("Green Card"), are not required to obtain approval as set forth in paragraph 1.a. above (but see paragraph 5, below). Such individuals must have proper identification in addition to a valid form I-551 in their physical possession at all times while at TYAD. Individuals lacking proper identification and valid form I-555 will be denied access to TYAD.

3. SECURITY SEARCHES, IN-PROCESSING, AND SECURITY SCREENING

All persons seeking entrance to TYAD must submit to and comply with all security standards and requirements in force at the time such persons are seeking entry. All visitors and contractors, regardless of resident status or citizenship, will be subject to vehicle search and intense in-processing by TYAD Security personnel prior to being granted access to TYAD. This security screening process may be time consuming and access may be delayed or denied.

Any Contractors who will be working on site, company representatives who will be visiting periodically, and any companies or contractors requesting or requiring TYAD badges for other business reasons must submit a completed TYAD form 648-C to their contract or depot point of contact. The completed form must be submitted at least five (5) workdays in advance of on-site performance for each employee intended for onsite performance or five (5) workdays in advance of visits or other business at the depot. Any contractor employee (s) already on site who have not been screened, will be subject to security screening. This requirement is inclusive of on-site supervisory or managerial personnel and sub-contractor personnel that the Contractor anticipates will be performing work or visiting on-site. This security screening does not relieve the contractor of any responsibilities to conduct thorough pre-employment background checks and drug screening. Contractor workers will not be granted access to the work site until security screening is completed and access is approved. Any contractor personnel on site who fail screening will not be permitted further access to TYAD.

4. SUBMISSION OF BIDS OR PROPOSALS

Bidders/offerors who hand carry bids or quotes do so at their own risk. Bidders/offerors are solely responsible for the timely submission of bids /proposals/quotations, any delays security measures notwithstanding.

5. CONTRACTOR ON-SITE WORKFORCE - ADDITIONAL SECURITY REQUIREMENTS

Division, Tobyhanna Army Depot, a roster of all contractor personnel, inclusive of on-site supervisory or managerial personnel and sub-contractor personnel, that the Contractor anticipates will be performing work on-site.

b) A copy of a valid Department of Justice Immigration and Naturalization Service Form I-551, Alien Registration Receipt Card ("Green Card").

Contractors who fail to identify any and all resident aliens (immigrants) who will be used for on-site performance and who will seek access to Tobyhanna Army Depot as a worker for or through the contractor, inclusive of managerial and subcontractor personnel, may be subject to civil and criminal penalties and sanctions as well as contract remedies

B. Within five (5) workdays of the submission of the roster, documentation, and TYAD form 648-C, the Government will have completed the security check and the Contractor shall be notified whether all listed personnel will be permitted to work on-site. However, actual access to Tobyhanna Army Depot by the roster personnel will remain contingent upon such resident alien (immigrant) individuals presenting two (2) forms of identification as they process into the Depot through the Security building: a valid Form I-551, Alien Registration Receipt Card ("Green Card") in addition to at least one other verifiable form of identification

C. The roster that the Contractor submits is amendable. However, up to five (5) workdays will be required to perform a security check on any personnel added to the roster. The Contractor is urged to include contingency or "back-up" personnel in the original roster in order to avoid delays due to roster amendment

D. Contractors whose personnel are denied entry to TYAD due to the security requirements are not relieved of their obligation to provide the required contract performance and must do so at no additional cost to the Government.

Any contractor failing to perform or that fails to perform in a timely manner under such circumstances may be terminated for default or be subject to other contractual remedies as appropriate.
