Automobile Property Damage Insurance Amount: ¥30,000,000 (or U.S. Dollar equivalents)

CAC must meet eligibility and suitability criteria as specified in the references; accordingly, the vetting procedures and required personnel actions may often begin well before the contract/order POP. The contractor and its employees and/or subcontractors are responsible for ensuring timely action and suitability to obtain CACs, and any resultant access issues from non-compliance shall not constitute excusable delay.

4.3.2 Base Passes and/or Defense Biometrics Identification System (DBIDS) cards. Personnel that do not qualify for CAC require an alternate credential for installation access, as governed by Marine Corps

Installations Pacific Order 5512.2, which can be provided upon request. The process to request access requires approval from the Contracting Officer in an access request letter.

https://www.mcbbutler.marines.mil/Base-Information/Vehicle-Registration/ https://www.mcbbutler.marines.mil/Base-Information/Vehicle-Registration/

4.3.3 Return and/or Disposal of Access Credentials. The contractor’s employees shall return to the applicable issuing office all base passes, DBIDS cards, and/or CAC, immediately upon termination of employment or completion of this contract and certification of receipt shall be obtained and submitted to the Contracting

Officer. The Contractor shall submit a listing of employees terminated under this contract to the

Contracting Officer within seven (7) days of the effective date of termination.

4.3.4 Status of Forces Agreement. Possession of a CAC or other credential does not, alone, determine the legal status of personnel performing under this contract. Additionally, unless specifically identified on the CAC, the credential does not necessarily authorize logistical support privileges such as commissary/exchange access. The individual status of personnel performing under this contract, and the privileges authorized, are governed in accordance with United States Force Japan Instructions (predominantly USFJI 64-100), applicable credentialing regulations, and the information prescribed via DFARS clauses regarding Contractor Personnel in Japan, as contained herein.

The regulation may subject the contractor and/or contractor's personnel to criminal liability under Title 18, Section 793 and 7908 of the United States Code.

4.3.6 Classified information. Any classified work products shall be handled in accordance with DoD

Instruction 5220.22-M.

Contractor to prohibit the opening of locked areas by the Contractor’s employees to permit entrance of persons other than Contractor’s employees engaged in the performance of assigned work in those areas. In the event keys are lost or unauthorized duplication occurs through the fault of a Contractor employee, The Government may, at its option, require the Contractor to replace keys, reimburse the government for replacement of locks, or re-key as a result of Contractor losing keys. In the event a master key is lost or duplicated, the Contractor shall replace all locks and keys for that system and the total cost will be deducted from the monthly payment.
