Specifically, a check of records through the National Crime Information Center (NCIC) Interstate Identification Index (III) is the installation's minimum background check for access to MCB, Camp Lejeune and/or MCAS, New River for non-Common Access Card holders, to include entrance of visitors.

12.4 Contractor personnel who are ineligible for a CAC will be required to either obtain a 30-Day pass followed by a 4-Day pass* or enroll in the RAPIDGate Program. RAPIDGate is a voluntary program due to associated costs. For further information concerning contractor access, please contact the Contractor Vetting Office at 910-450-5978 or visit Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune (http://www.lejeune.marines.mil/) or MCAS New River (http://www.newriver.marines.mil/) websites.
