In order to promote security and safety, all contractors desiring access must adhere to installation entry requirements, to include, identity proofing and vetting. This includes a National Crime Information Center (NCIC) and California Law Enforcement Telecommunication System (CLETS) check. Identity proofing and vetting is not required for contractors if they have a current favorable government security clearance which can be verified through the Joint Personnel Adjudication System (JPAS).

2. The primary contractor will ensure all contractors possess proper credentials allowing them to work in the United States and ensure illegal aliens are not employed and/or transported onto the installation. At least one of the following forms of identification will be required for identity proofing:

School identification card with photograph U.S. Military or draft record Native American Tribal Document U.S. Social Security Card issued by the Social Security Administration (SSA) Certification of Birth Abroad issued by the Department of State (Form FS-545 or Form

DS-1350)

Security (DHS) which includes, a) Form I-94 identifying the holder as an asylee, or b) other documentation issued by DHS or the former Immigration and Naturalization Service that identifies the holder as an asylee, lawful permanent resident, refugee or other status authorized to work in the United States incident to status

In the case of a nonimmigrant alien authorized to work for a specific employer incident to status, a foreign passport with Form I-94 or Form I-94A bearing the same name as the passport and containing an endorsement of the alien’s nonimmigrant status, as long as the endorsement has not yet expired and the proposed employment is not in conflict with any restrictions or limitations identified on the form.

The contractor shall not be entitled to any compensation for delays or expenses associated with complying with the provision of this clause. Furthermore, nothing in this clause shall excuse the contractor from proceeding with the contract as required.

3. The REAL ID Act of 2005 established minimum standards for the production and issuance of state-issued driver’s licenses and ID cards which include requirements for a photograph and certain biographic information, such as name, date of birth, gender, height, eye color, & address. State-issued driver’s licenses and ID cards from states not meeting the standards can no longer be used for accessing Federal facilities including Air Force installations unless the issuing state’s compliance deadline has been extended by the Department of Homeland Security (DHS).

State compliance with the REAL ID Act can be found at: https://www.dhs.gov/current-status-states-territories.

Contractors from states which are in compliance, or has an approved extension, may use their state-issued driver’s license may be used for identity proofing.

Contractors from states which are not in compliance, must use an alternative identification credential for identity proofing as specified in para. 2.

Contractors from states which are not in compliance and do not have an alternative identification credential must be escorted or denied access.

4. Identity Proofing and Vetting. Contractors will be identity proofed and vetted each time a pass is issued. Security Forces may conduct random screenings at any time. If disqualifying base access information is found contractors may be denied base access or have passes currently issued revoked.

Following are the base access disqualifiers:

The individual is known to be or reasonably suspected of being a terrorist or belongs to an organization with known terrorism links/support.

The installation is unable to verify the individual’s claimed identity.

The individual has previously been barred from access to a federal installation or stand-alone facility.

The individual is wanted to Federal, State, or other civil law enforcement authorities, regardless of offense or violation.

The individual has any conviction for espionage, sabotage, treason, terrorism, or murder.

The individual’s name appears on any Federal or State agency’s watch list, hit list or registration list for criminal behavior or terrorist activity.

The individual has been convicted of a firearms or explosive violation.

The individual has been convicted of sexual assault, armed robbery, rape, child molestation, child pornography or trafficking in humans.

Within the last 10 years, the individual has been convicted of drug possession with intent to sell or drug distribution.

Within the past 10 years, the individual has been convicted of 2 or more felonies, or 2 or more violent misdemeanors, or 1 or more felonies and 1 or more violent misdemeanors.

Extensive criminal behavior is a large amount of police arrests and/or convictions from age 18 to present. Systemic criminal history is a consistent interval of police arrests and/or convictions from age 18 to present.

Contractors with disqualifying base access information will be issued a denial access letter immediately revoking their base access privileges.
