1.13.4.11 Mission Operation
Security Operations will be continuous throughout the contract period and will necessitate nominal constraints on Contractor operations. Planning between the Contracting Officer or his/her designated representative and mis-sion units can eliminate most constraints except those caused by unforeseen events. During any movements of security re-sources into or from the Controlled Area, construction will be halted prior to the movement and the construction crew will be relocated to an area away from the convoy route or destination. Under no circumstance will the reason for this relocation be announced to the Contractor.
