This security screening process may be time consuming, and access may be delayed or denied. COR will provide specifics to the contractor after award and at least ten days prior to the expected visit date for completion. 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. Ensure undocumented workers are not included in contracted work related to Army missions.

The company will ensure that its employees entering Army-controlled installations or facilities have obtained access badges and passes in accordance with facility regulations and that these badges and passes are obtained in advance so as not to delay the accomplishment of contracted services.

Unless specified in the contract, the contractor must not disturb any existing Asbestos-Containing Material (ACM) in the performance of this contract. If ACM, or suspect ACM might be disturbed in performance of this contract, the contractor must avoid encountering the material and immediately notify the COR and the Contract Administrator in writing. The COR must coordinate with EB to have the material tested to determine if there is ACM. If the material is determined to be ACM and the contractor cannot avoid disturbing the material, the COR will notify the Contracting Officer. The Contracting Officer will direct a change pursuant to the contract clauses entitled “Changes” and “Differing Site Conditions.” If ACM, or suspect ACM has been disturbed, the contractor must immediately notify the COR and call the EB. The contractor will shut down and not move any equipment or supplies near the damaged ACM. The contractor will evacuate all non-contaminated contractor personnel from the immediate vicinity. Any contractor personnel thought to be contaminated with asbestos must remain in the area until the EB responds. If the damaged material is determined to be ACM and there is potential for further damage, the Contracting Officer will direct a change pursuant to the clauses of the contract clauses entitled “Changes” and “Differing Site Conditions.”

Asbestos abatement required under the contract as originally awarded must be in accordance with United Facilities Guide Specification 02 83 14 00 10 and as otherwise required in the contract. Asbestos abatement not required under the contract as originally awarded, can be incorporated into the existing contract via contract modification, or by the Government taking responsibility for the asbestos abatement.
