8:00 A.M. Monday through Friday as there could be significant delays. The Government will conduct security/background checks on all construction personnel as required. Security requirements will be briefed at the pre-construction conference and handouts outlining specific requirements will be provided. Screening measures are in place and suitability for employees to access the installation will be determined during the conference. Requirements are subject to change dependent upon current world situations, potential threats, and base exercises. Full cooperation by Contractor work forces is required. Contractor should anticipate certain notification and reporting requirements, preparation of forms, and lists for pass and identification of employees and their vehicles, entry restrictions, key/lock control, and compliance with all base traffic rules and regulations. The Jacobson Gate Visitor Control

Center 325-654-4122 is the Office of Primary Responsibility (OPR) for passes.

1.23 INSTALLATION ACCESS PASS: Before arrival, a government identification card-holding person from the sponsoring agency, Base Contracting office/administrator or applicable local project manager will submit a request for base access using the 17 Training

Wing’s Base Access List (BAL) memorandum as a form of registration for each credential applicant. The base sponsor/sponsoring agency/Contracting Officer and the contracted management team should establish an accountability process to account for each applicant, to oversee the BAL process, and to retrieve installation passes when access is no longer required. Base sponsors/sponsoring agencies or contract officers will ensure the BAL is accurate, it is signed and forwarded to the 17 SFS Pass & Registration section for completion of the vetting and fitness determination processes. The BAL should be delivered to Pass &

Registration, located at the Visitor Control Center (VCC). When delivery is not possible, the

BAL may be forwarded to Pass & Registration via a “.mil” email account located on

Goodfellow AFB. The BAL will include pertinent visitor information, reason for entry, frequency of entry, destination, times each day requiring entry, and duration of request.

1.23.1 ACCESS DENIAL. If it is determined a Contractor requesting access has been convicted of a felony or pled guilty to a felony charge within the past 10 years, or is considered not fit to obtain authorized access based on the information obtained during the identity

SOW: Page 9 of 17 vetting, or criminal history indicates the individual may present a threat to the good order, discipline and morale of the installation, Security Forces personnel will deny entry. The

Contractor will be informed of the access denial, will be issued an Access Denial Letter, and will be informed on how they may appeal this order.

1.23.2 DENIAL APPEAL PROCESS. When denied access, contract visitors will be informed to report back their manager. If the contract worker and management are considering an appeal, it will be submitted by letter to the 17 SFS Commander, within 30 days of access denial. The contract manager should first contact the military contract officer/administrator or on-base sponsor for additional guidance and clarification. The appeal may be delivered to the installation Visitor Control Section or mailed to Security Forces, addressed to 17 SFS/CC, 361

Apache Trail, Goodfellow AFB, 76908. The Contractor's appeal should discuss all facts and reasons to support rescinding access denial. The 17 TRW/CC will approve/disapprove all appeals for entry.

1.23.3 ABNORMAL WORK SCHEDULE: For access on non-duty hours or down days:

Identify which workers need access on weekends, federal holidays/family days, and down days. Ensure only workers that are already vetted are on the Extended-Hours request (no new personnel). New personnel require a new BAL and formal vetting. Complete the “After Hours”

BAL for workers requiring down day access to the installation. Identify the vehicle requirements. If operations cannot support the search procedures for large vehicles/special purpose equipment, the request may be declined unless arrangements are made to deliver the vehicle/equipment prior, during normal duty hours.

1.23.4 PASS HANDLING: All BALs are accomplished each time employees or personnel change, not to exceed 180 days. Oversight for BAL updates and establishment of procedures to ensure Physical Access Control System (PACS) credentials and locally created access credentials from individuals who no longer require installation access is the responsibility of the contracting officer/contract administrator. When an employee (regardless of position) is no longer employed by the Contractor or Sub-Contractor all DBIDS passes are to be returned to the Contract Officer/Administrator or to the Visitor Control Center. If a local issued access credential/pass is not returned, the contract officer may withhold funds, or the Installation

Commander may consider permanent debarment to the installation. Immediate access denial may be initiated by Pass & Registration updating the DBIDS database until disposition of the

DBIDS pass is resolved.
