ON SITE CONTRACTORS
TOBYHANNA ARMY DEPOT ON-SITE CONTRACTOR WORKFORCE AND VISITOR
RESTRICTIONS
1. NON-RESIDENT/NON-IMMIGRANT ALIENS
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

The roster shall indicate which individuals are U.S. citizens and which are resident aliens (immigrants). The following documentation shall accompany the roster for each individual named on the roster as a resident alien (immigrant):
a) A copy of a verifiable form of identification, such as a driver's license or a passport; and
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.

The contractor shall procure and maintain during the entire period of his performance under this contract the following minimum insurance:
(a) WORKER'S COMPENSATION AND EMPLOYER'S LIABILITY. Contractors are required to comply with applicable Federal and State Worker's Compensation and Occupational Disease Statutes. If the Employer's liability section of the insurance policy, except then contract operations are so commingled with a contractor's commercial operations that it would not be practical to require this coverage.

(b) GENERAL LIABILITY. Bodily Injury Liability Insurance Coverage written on the comprehensive form of policy of at least $500,000 per occurrence shall be required. Property Damage Liability Insurance is not normally required.
(c) AUTOMOBILE LIABILITY. Automobile Liability Insurance written on the comprehensive form of policy is required. The policy shall provide for Bodily Injury and Property Damage Liability covering the operation of all automobiles used in connection with performing the contract. Policies covering automobiles operated in the United States shall provide coverage of at least $200,000 per person and $500,000 per occurrence for Bodily Injury and $20,000 per occurrence for Property Damage. The amount of liability coverage on other policies shall be commensurate with any legal requirements of the locality and sufficient to meet normal and customary claims.
CONTRACTOR SAFETY STANDARDS
CONTRACTOR SAFETY STANDARDS FOR TYAD
Below are some “installation specific” safety standards which contractors are required to adhere to while performing any work on Tobyhanna Army Depot. It is the contractor’s responsibility to incorporate these particular requirements into their daily operations at all times while under contract and to institute these specifics into their overall site safety controls. These do not substitute or deflect in any way the requirement to institute and adhere to all OSHA 1910 & 1926, ARMY 385-10, USACE EM385-1-1, and DoD 6055.01 job site safety standards as well while performing contract work under the provisions of FAR Clause 52.236-13 on Tobyhanna Army Depot.
It is the responsibility of the contractor to enforce the below requirements as well as all current revisions of the above referenced standards. Failure to enforce safety requirements on the depot can result in immediate stop works, safety stand down orders and even complete termination of the contract.
Important Phone Numbers:
Fire or Emergency: 911 Fire Department – (Non-Emergency): 570-615-7300 Security: 570-615-7550 Safety Office - 570-615-7027
S.10.0 THE CONTRACTOR IS SOLELY RESPONSIBLE AND LIABLE FOR JOB- SITE SAFETY.
1. Review of the project plans and other documents by any government appointed official does not constitute an acceptance of Federal responsibility or liability for the adequacy of the safety measures identified for the job or for the Contractor's compliance with all applicable safety rules and regulations.
2. The Contractor remains solely responsible and liable for job-site safety at all times during the term of the contract. No outside personnel (other than ET, COR, TYAD Safety, or other government appointed contract personnel) are allowed onto the job site at any time during contract without prior permissions and/or escort by the ET, COR or KO.
3. Tobyhanna Army depot has restrictions on the use of fossil fuels in all buildings. The contractor must follow the TYAD fossil fuel memorandum of understanding requirements pertaining to such uses as noted below:
TYAD has restrictions on the use of fossil fuels in all buildings. When it is determined that electric or other alternatively-fueled vehicles are insufficient or unavailable for movement of material within the buildings on the installation, fossil-fueled vehicles can be used only when all alternatives of accepted electric material movement equipment have been considered, and the last option is use of a fossil fuel vehicle or project failure.
This includes any situations where safety of employees and equipment may be jeopardized. Convenience will never be an acceptable justification to utilize fossil-fueled vehicles. The Government Designated Representative (GDR) will notify the appropriate supervisor(s) or leader(s) in the area where the need to utilize a fossil fuel vehicle is required. The supervisor / leader will take the necessary steps to notify the employees in the work area of the option to leave the area during the material movement process. The GDR and Contractor will also document all actions the Contractor took to utilize electric or other alternatively-fueled vehicles. The documentation will specifically state why electric or alternatively-fueled vehicles are insufficient. The documentation may be in the form of signed memo or email and must be completed within 24-hours after the usage of the fossil-fueled vehicle. A copy of the documentation will be provided to the Union and the Safety Division
4. All direct construction supervision, including subcontractors, must as a minimum, complete an OSHA
10 hour safety course for construction. These certificates must be submitted as part of the site safety plan BEFORE construction activities start.
5. RED CARD PROGRAM - Tobyhanna Army Depot utilizes a program to allow employees to stop an action which is considered unsafe. Employees carry small red cards that can be thrown down when employee sees an action they consider unsafe. Work ceases until TYAD management can decide if it is safe or not. Contractors are required to comply with this program. If a TYAD employee presents the red card to the contractor, the contractor must stop working until the COR and Safety Office can determine if there is a safety hazard or not.
6. All contractor personnel, to include subcontractors, vendors, suppliers, or visitors, when performing any type of work activity, or gaining access through an occupied area or shop - must have all applicable PPE that is required for the area to include, but not limited to, hardhats, safety glasses, hearing protection, and respirator protection. Notify both COR & Area Supervision, for access approval and prior to any work activities being performed.
S.10.1 CODE COMPLIANCE
Tobyhanna Army Depot requires full contractor compliance with all safety regulations and standards. The Contractor is responsible for maintaining, monitoring and enforcing all rules, regulations and codes, by ALL personnel working for the contractor including all subcontractors.

S.10.2 JOB HAZARD ANALYSIS (JHA) / ACTIVITY HAZARD ANALYSIS (AHA)
Prior to the start of work, the contractor shall prepare a JHA / AHA for each phase of work that will be done under the contract. This will be completed in accordance with all applicable OSHA safety requirements. A phase is any operations involving a certain type of work. Examples include demolition, excavation, masonry work, concrete pouring, roofing, and electrical wiring. Work done by each subcontractor is also a phase. The JHA / AHA will:
1. List the activity being performed and identify the sequence of work steps.
2. List the hazards associated with each step, and the procedures and training required to eliminate or reduce the risk to an acceptable level.
S.10.3 SITE SPECIFIC SAFETY & ACCIDENT PREVENTION PLANS
Contractors will submit a written Site Specific Safety / Contractor Accident Prevention Plan prior to beginning construction. The plan must follow the guidelines in OSHA 1926:
1. Who will implement the plan, including who is responsible for safety and accident prevention?
2. A means for coordinating and controlling subcontractors and suppliers.
3. Safety training.
4. Who will investigate accidents?
5. Emergency response.
6. Job site cleanup and safe access.
7. Public safety requirements such as signs and barricades.
