1.11.2.5 The Contractor shall submit a roster of all employees performing work under the contract who will require access to the installation to the COR for the contract who will forward it to the JBLM Directorate of Emergency Services (DES) Security and Access Control Division (SACD). Information required to be included on the roster is the full legal name, date of birth, and state of residence which will be used to conduct a National Crime Information Center Interstate Identification Index (NCIC III) check on each employee to determine their eligibility for access. The NCIC III checks are conducted by the Government at no cost to the Contractor. If the results of a NCIC III check on a contractor employee are adverse, that employee will not be eligible for an AIE Extended Access Badge or visitor’s pass. If an AIE Extended Access Badge or visitor’s pass are denied for any reason, the contractor employee may apply for a waiver to the denial through the government point of contact for the contract. Instructions for applying for a waiver will be provided to the contractor when a contractor employee is denied access. Contractor employees who are cleared for access after the NCIC III check can apply for an AIE Extended Access Badge through the contractor.

Applications for the AIE Extended Access Badge or contractor visitor pass can be obtained from the COR for the contract or from the JBLM webpage at:

https://home.army.mil/lewis-mcchord/index.php/my-Joint-Base-Lewis-Mcchord/all-services/gate-information.

1.11.2.6 If an employee no longer needs a visitor pass or AIE Extended Access Badge for any reason (e.g., quits his/her job or no longer performs work under the contract), the contractor shall notify the COR or the Visitor Center immediately. Notification can be made by telephone or by email, although written communication is preferred. This notification will allow the DES to deactivate the pass or badge and render it invalid.

Contractors are requested to attempt to retrieve the pass or badge and return it to the COR or the Visitor Center within two (2) calendar days of such change. An employee’s inability to obtain entrance to a military installation because he/she does not have the required identification badge or visitor’s pass shall not excuse timely performance of the requirements of this contract. Badges and passes for JBLM access are currently issued at both the Lewis and McChord Visitor Centers and the vehicle/weapons registration office in Waller Hall. The Government may change the location at which identification badges are issued or returned, with or without advance notice to the contractor. Any such changes shall not be a basis for adjusting the contract price under any clause of this contract.

1.11.2.7 AIE Extended Access Badges and/or visitor’s passes shall not be reproduced or copied by the Contractor, its subcontractors, or their employees. If an employee’s identification badge or pass is lost, stolen, or reproduced, the Contractor shall verbally report the loss, theft, or reproduction to both the COR for the contract and the Visitor Center immediately after such loss, theft, or reproduction is discovered. This notification will allow the DES to deactivate the pass or badge and render it invalid. Additionally, the Contractor will provide a written report of the circumstances surrounding the discovery of the loss, theft, or reproduction to both the COR and the Visitor Center within one (1) business day.

1.11.2.8 Each contractor employee shall wear the AIE Extended Access Badge while performing work under the contract. The identification badge shall be worn on the upper front of the outer garment unless precluded by OSHA regulation(s). The identification badge shall not be used for access to any Government installation except for performance of work under the contract for which it was issued.

1.11.2.9 The Contractor shall, upon expiration or termination of the contract, collect all identification badges and turn them in to the COR.

2.1.5 Contracting Officer’s Representative (COR). An employee of the U.S.

Government appointed by the KO to administer the contract. Such appointment will be in writing and will state the scope of authority and limitations. This individual has authority to provide technical direction to the Contractor as long as that direction is within the scope of the contract, does not constitute a change, and has no funding implications. This individual does NOT have authority to change the terms and conditions of the contract.

2.1.6 Defective Service. A service output that does not meet the standard of performance associated with the PWS.

2.1.7 Deliverable. Anything that is contractually required to be physically delivered. May include non-manufactured items such as meeting minutes or reports.

2.1.13 Oil Water Separator (OWS). OWS used to pre-treat wastewater are usually of two kinds: standard gravity separators or enhanced gravity separators.

2.1.13.1 Standard gravity separators are liquid containment structures that provide sufficient hydraulic retention time to allow oil droplets to rise to the surface. The oil forms a separate layer that can then be removed by skimmers, pumps, or other methods. The wastewater outlet is located below the oil level so that water leaving the separator is free of the oil that accumulates at the top of the unit. The inlet is often fitted with diffusion baffles to reduce turbulent flow that might prevent effective separation of the oil and might re-suspend settled pollutants.
