12. PUBLIC RELEASE. Any information (classified or unclassified) pertaining to this contract shall not be released for public dissemination except as provided by the DoD Industrial Security Manual or unless it has been approved for public release by appropriate U.S. Government authority. Proposed public releases shall be submitted for approval prior to release.

|_| DIRECT |X| THROUGH (Specify)

FLEET NUMERICAL METEOROLOGY & OCEANOGRAPHY CENTER (FLENUMMETOCCEN), 7 GRACE HOPPER AVE., MONTEREY, CA 93943 to the Directorate for Freedom of Information and Security Review, Office of the Assistant Secretary of Defense (Public Affairs)* for review.

*In the case of non-DoD User Agencies, requests for disclosure shall be submitted to that agency.

13. SECURITY GUIDANCE. The security classification guidance needed for this classified effort is identified below. If any difficulty is encountered in applying this guidance or if any other contributing factor indicates a need for changes in this guidance, the contractor is authorized and encouraged to provide recommended changes; to challenge the guidance or the classification assigned to any information or material furnished or generated under this contract; and to submit any questions for interpretation of this guidance to the official identified below. Pending final decision, the information involved shall be handled and protected at the highest level of classification assigned or recommended. (Fill in as appropriate for the classified effort. Attach, or forward under separate correspondence, any documents/guides/extracts referenced herein. Add additional pages as needed to provide complete guidance.)

A. Although the actual end items provided by the contactor may not be classified, contractor personnel are required to have access to restricted areas wherein visual access to classified information cannot be precluded by these personnel. Only personnel with a SECRET level or higher clearance may perform under this contract since the only alternative is to have the restricted areas “sanitized” which would halt all other work in the area. This would not allow FLENUMMETOCCEN to meet its operational commitments and therefore, its mission.

B. This position is designated as an IT level II, Noncritical-Sensitive National Security Position and requires the appointed contractor to hold and maintain SECRET eligibility through a valid and current NACLC or higher investigation in accordance with DODI 8500.2 and SECNAV M-5510.30. The contractor’s PM will coordinate with the customer to determine required clearance levels for each assigned employee.

C. Block 10g – A final personnel clearance and special briefing are required prior to NATO access. When NATO access is required, the contractor’s visit request will certify that the employee has been briefed accordingly. All contractor personnel are required to attend security awareness training and briefings coordinated by the FLENUMMETOCCEN Security Department and/or Special Security Officer, including annual Counterintelligence Awareness and Reporting Training (CIAR), as directed by DODD 5240.06, which will be conducted by the Naval Criminal Investigative Service (NCIS).

ANNEX

Security Classification Guidance

1. The contractor shall not release any information relating to this contract including unclassified information unless authorized by FLENUMMETOCCEN.

2. Upon completion of this contract, all materials provided to the contractor will be returned to the Government Program Office unless written exception is provided to the contractor. Materials generated by the contractor may be returned or destroyed as directed. All items approved for retention will be specifically listed in the approval letter. (NOTE: Receipt and/or generation of classified material are not permitted in the contractor’s spaces.

FOUO Handling Instructions

1. FOUO information is not classified according to Executive Order, but is exempt from disclosure to the public under exemptions 2 through 9 of the FOIA. Do not consider or mark any other records FOUO. FOUO is not authorized as a form of classification to protect national security Interests.

2. FOUO information may be sent within DoD components and between officials of DoD components and authorized DoD contractors, consultants, and grantees to conduct official business for the DoD. Inform recipients of the status of such information, and send the material in a way that prevents unauthorized public disclosure. Make sure documents that transmit FOUO material call attention to any FOUO attachments. Normally, FOUO records may be sent over facsimile equipment. To preclude unauthorized disclosure, consider such factors as attaching special cover sheets, location of sending and receiving machines, and availability of authorized personnel to receive the FOUO information. FOUO information may be passed to officials in other departments and agencies of the executive and judicial branches to fulfill a government function. Mark the records "FOR OFFICIAL USE ONLY", and tell the recipient the information is exempt from public disclosure under the FOIA and if special handling instructions apply.

OPSEC Guidance

2. The Contractor agrees to include a similar requirement in each subcontract under this contract. Subcontractors shall submit requests for authorization to release through the prime contractor to the Contracting Officer.
