Kellogg Airport is a closed Base, pursuant to Sec 21, Internal Security Act of 1950, 50 U.S.C. 797 and, as such, only those persons granted permission may enter. It is, therefore, required that control be exercised over Contractor personnel while working on the Base. To maintain this control, a listing of all Contractor personnel who will be working under the contract must be submitted to the Contracting Officer ten working days prior to the start of work under the contract. The Contracting Officer’s Representative will provide the form for completion by each employee, to be returned to the Contracting Officer’s Representative via email.

B. During construction, the Contractor shall permit Government personnel access to the facilities within the work area. The Contractor shall provide protection to persons and property throughout the progress of the work.
