(1) SECURITY REQUIREMENTS:

A. For access to USCG Base Kodiak, Alaska the contract shall have RAPIDGate credentials. All personnel that need access to the base, such as on-site personnel, subcontractors (including second and third-tier subcontractors) and suppliers will need RAPIDGate credentials. This process must be completed prior to the start of work.

Therefore, the Contractor shall begin the RAPIDGate registration process no less than 45 calendar days before on-site work is to commence. For enrollment into the RapidGate program for base access privileges, information can be found at www.rapidgate.com or by calling the RAPIDGate program at 1-877-727-4342. Please note that all costs associated with registration and participation in the RAPIDGate Program is at the sole expense of the contractor.

B. The Contractor shall provide a list of all on-site personnel, sub-contractors (including second and third tier subcontractors), and suppliers, to the contracting officer and Contracting Officer’s Representative no less than 30 calendar days before on-site work is to commence. The Contractor shall update this list when changes occur and ensure all personnel satisfy base access standards, and have RAPIDGate credentials.

C. Contractor personnel not listed and without RAPIDGate credentials may be denied access to the Coast Guard Facility. Contractor personnel will be restricted to designated working areas. Any personnel violating this policy may lose access to the Coast Guard Facility. Contractor personnel shall have photo identification at all times while working on Coast Guard facilities. Special identification requirements may be needed to obtain the RAPIDGate credentials.

D. Contractor and delivery personnel may be required to present personal photo identification to gain access to a Coast Guard installation. Valid forms of identification are current passport or driver’s license that meet Real ID Act requirements. The Real ID Act of 2005 established minimum security standards for license issuance and production and prohibits Federal agencies from accepting, for certain purposes, driver's licenses and identification cards from states not meeting the Act's minimum standards. Anyone requiring access to a military facility under this contract, to include subcontractors, who holds a driver's license from any state without approved licenses will be required to provide identification other than that driver's license to gain access.

Government IDs annotated with "Federal Limits Apply" will not be accepted for access purposes. It is the responsibility of the Contractor to ensure that their personnel have federally acceptable personal photo identification and comply with any other requirements for base access.

E. If identification does not indicate United States citizenship, Coast Guard Security may require proof of the legal right to work in the United States. Contractor and delivery personnel also may be subjected to an immigration status and outstanding criminal warrants check.

F. Contractors shall provide the Contracting Officer’s Representative with 24 hours of advance notice of every delivery to the site (e.g. concrete, lumber, parts, etc) and provide the company name, delivery person. And phone number of the firm(s) making deliveries. All vehicle access to Government property requires vehicle registration and proof of liability insurance. Otherwise access to the Coast Guard facility may be denied.
