Individuals cannot pre-apply for a security clearance, nor update their security questionnaire, unless granted access by an appropriate agency official. Requests for investigation of contractor personnel for security clearance eligibility are processed by the OPM and adjudicated by Defense Industrial Security Clearance Office (DISCO). The e-QIP software can be accessed at the Office of Personnel Management (OPM) website http://www.opm.gov/e-qip/index.asp or http://www.dss.mil the contractor should provide the completed PSQ for verification or a completed SF-86 or SF-85P to the Contract Company Security Officer along with the original signed release statements and two applicant fingerprint cards (FD 258). Applicants can obtain an SF-86 or SF-85P by visiting the Office of Personnel Management (OPM) website located at: http://www.opm.gov/forms/html/sf.asp. The command will provide written notification to the contractor advising whether or not the contractor employee will be admitted to command areas or be provided access to unclassified but sensitive business information. Determinations are the sole prerogative of the commanding officer of the sponsor activity. If the commanding officer determines, upon review of the investigation, that allowing a person to perform certain duties or access to certain areas, would pose an unacceptable risk, that decision is final. No due process procedures are required. The contractor employee shall take all lawful steps available to ensure that information provided or generated pursuant to this arrangement is protected from further disclosure unless the agency provides written consent to such disclosure.
6.4.2. Information Awareness Training
All authorized users of DoD information systems shall receive initial IA awareness orientation as a condition of access and thereafter must complete annual IA refresher awareness training to maintain an active user account.
6.4.3. Foreign National
No foreign national will be employed on a government contract requiring access to sensitive but unclassified information without the consent of the United States government.
In accordance with SECNAV M-5510.30B, if the contractor employee is a Foreign National, a waiver must be obtained from Department of the Navy Central Adjudication Facility (DONCAF) prior to granting access to sensitive information.
6.5. Privacy Act Data
6.6. For Official Use Only (FOUO) Material:
If the Contractor determines that unauthorized personnel have access to For Official Use Only (FOUO) material, the Contractor Site Manager will immediately notify the COR and cooperate fully with any investigation. The Contractor shall comply with DoD 5400-7-R, Chapter 4, DoD Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) Program. This regulation establishes policy and procedures for the disclosure of records to the public and for marking, handling, transmitting, and safeguarding FOUO material.
6.7. Protection of System Data
Unless otherwise stated in the Solicitation, the contractor shall protect system design-related documents and operational data whether in written form or in electronic form via a network in accordance with all applicable policies and procedures for such data, including DOD Regulations 5400.7-R and DoDM 5200.01 to include latest changes, and applicable service/agency/ combatant command policies and procedures. The contractor shall protect system design related documents and operational data at least to the level provided by Secure Sockets Layer (SSL)/Transport Security Layer (TSL)-protected web site connections with certificate and or user id/password-based access controls. In either case, the certificates used by the Contractor for these protections shall be DoD or IC approved Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) certificates issued by a DoD or IC approved External Certification Authority (ECA) and shall make use of at least 128-bit encryption.
6.8. Operations Security (OPSEC)
In the event it is necessary to create, handle and/or maintain critical information (refer to attachment, JB CHS Critical Information List) for JB CHS, contracted personnel must meet the requirements and responsibilities established in the Operations Security Instruction, AFI 10-701 and the JB CHS OPSEC Plan. AFI 10-701 specifically states, “OPSEC is everyone’s responsibility.” Ideally, the AF uses OPSEC measures to protect its critical information from those who would exploit it. Failure to properly implement OPSEC measures can result in serious injury or death to personnel; damage to weapons systems, equipment and facilities; loss of sensitive technologies; and mission degradation or failure. OPSEC must be fully integrated into the execution of all Air Force operations and supporting activities, therefore all contractors will:
(1) Protect JB CHS critical and/or sensitive information from disclosure by following the “need to know” principle.
(2) Not publicly post, publish or share work-related information that potentially contains any critical or sensitive information. Contractors are encouraged to solicit the advice of the Wing OPSEC Program Manager with any questions they may have regarding the use of JB CHS’s sensitive/critical information.
(3) Not share JB CHS sensitive/critical information in articles, unencrypted electronic mail (e-mail), web site postings, and web log (blog) postings, internet message board discussions, or other forms of dissemination or documentation.
(4) Encrypt all e-mail messages containing critical information, OPSEC indicators, and other sensitive information. Encryption serves as one measure to protect critical or sensitive information transmitted over unclassified networks.
(5) Not publicly disseminate, or publish photographs of JB CHS or USAF property without prior approval from the 628 ABW Public Affairs office, or appropriately trained website administrator.
(6) Not publicly reference, disseminate, or publish JB CHS’s information that may have already been compromised. This provides further unnecessary exposure of the compromised information and may serve as validation.
(7) Actively encourage fellow contractors to protect JB CHS’s critical and/or sensitive information.
(8) Return to either the Project Manager or Q&A Representative (22 CONS) for destruction (burn, shred, etc.) any/all critical and/or sensitive unclassified information no longer needed to prevent the inadvertent disclosure and/or reconstruction of this material. Electronic documents should also be deleted and wiped clean from all computer systems used during the contractual work.
(9) Implement protective measures as ordered by JB CHS’s commander, director, OPSEC PM or an individual in an equivalent position.
(10) Know who the installation’s OPSEC PM is and contact them with questions, concerns, or recommendations for OPSEC related topics.
(11) Report attempts by unauthorized personnel to solicit critical and/or sensitive information to the OPSEC PM or installation Security Forces immediately. Contract personnel who have been involved in or have knowledge of a possible incident will report all facts immediately.
Contact the appropriate squadron’s Unit OPSEC Coordinator or the Wing OPSEC Program Manager (437 AW/XP) at (843) 963-5534 for additional OPSEC guidance and training as needed.
6.9. Force Protection Conditions
Force Protection Conditions (FPCON) are implemented on the base to increase protective measures in anticipation of, or in response to, the threat of terrorist attack. The DOD FPCON consists of five progressive levels of increasing protective measures. The circumstances that apply and the purposes of each protective posture are as follows:
6.9.1. FPCON NORMAL
Applies when a general global threat of possible terrorist activity exists and warrants a routine security posture. At a minimum, access control will be conducted at all DOD installations and facilities.
6.9.2. FPCON ALPHA:
Applies when there is an increased general threat of possible terrorist activity against personnel or facilities, and the nature and extent of the threat are unpredictable. ALPHA measures must be capable of being maintained indefinitely.
6.9.3. FPCON BRAVO:
Applies when an increased or more predictable threat of terrorist activity exists. Sustaining BRAVO measures for a prolonged period may affect operational capability and military-civil relationships with local authorities.
6.9.4. FPCON CHARLIE:
Applies when an incident occurs or intelligence is received indicating some form of terrorist action or targeting against personnel or facilities is likely. Prolonged implementation of CHARLIE measures may create hardship and affect the activities of the unit and its personnel.
6.9.5. FPCON DELTA:
Applies in the immediate area where a terrorist attack has occurred or when intelligence has been received that terrorist action against a specific location or person is imminent. This FPCON is usually declared as a localized condition. FPCON DELTA measures are not intended to be sustained for an extended duration.
6.10. Safety Requirements:
In addition to FAR 5352.223-9001, the contractor shall maintain and provide a copy of a written safety plan to the wing safety office prior to start of work IAW AFPAM 91-210 section 6.4.
