The SC shall submit a Request for Equitable Adjustment detailing the impact resulting from the incorporation of such contingency actions. In the event that operations are curtailed as a result of weather emergencies or other unplanned mission-related events, SC personnel may be considered non-essential personnel and thus, not required to be at the work site. However, they may be required to be on call, to work at a designated evacuation site, or to be part of a crisis response team at a nearby site.

10.0 DEFENSE BIOMETRIC IDENTIFICATION SYSTEM (DBIDS)

The Defense Biometric Identification System (DBIDS) is a DoD-owned and operated system developed by Defense Manpower Data Center as a force protection program to manage personnel identity and access at DoD installations.

DBIDS is a network database system designed to easily verify access authorization of personnel entering military installations by using barcodes and fingerprint biometric identifications.

In order to obtain base access, an individual needs to acquire DoD sponsorship, have a thorough identity check, be properly vetted, and have a legitimate reason for base access. Identity checks require a passport or a Real ID Act-compliant state driver's license. Vetting occurs when the individual's background and ID are compared against authoritative criminal justice databases, and the individual has a letter or official document from the sponsoring organization, which articulates the reason for access. When the above criteria are satisfactorily met, DBIDs credentials are issued.
