7.0 SECURITY

Security Clauses for Kentucky Lock QA Trailer Re-Leveling

General security requirements and guidance: The security requirements described below apply to all contract personnel (including employees of the prime Contractor (“Contractor”) and all subcontractor employees) supporting the performance requirements of this contract. The Contractor is responsible for compliance with these security requirements. Questions regarding security matters shall be addressed to the designated Government representative (e.g., Contracting Officer Representative (COR), Requiring Activity (RA) representative, or Contracting Officer (if a COR or other RA representative is not appointed)). Contract personnel are critical to the overall security and safety of US Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) installations, facilities and activities, and security awareness training contributes to those efforts. The Department of Defense (DoD) and Army security training requirements specified below, if applicable, are performance requirements; all applicable contract personnel shall complete initial training within 30 days of contract award or the date new contract personnel begin performance on the contract. Within five business days from the completion of training, the Contractor shall provide written documentation (e.g., email or memorandum) to the Government representative. The documentation shall include the names of contract personnel trained and which training they completed; the Contractor shall maintain training records as part of their contract files and be prepared to provide copies of training certificates to the Government representative. Contractor personnel and vehicles are subject to search when entering federal installations. Additionally, all contract personnel shall comply with Force Protection Condition (FPCON) measures, Random Antiterrorism Measures (commonly referred to as “RAMs”), and Health Protection Condition (HPCON) measures. The Contractor is responsible for meeting performance requirements during elevated FPCON and/or HPCON levels in accordance with applicable RA plans and procedures—this includes identifying mission essential and non-mission essential personnel. In addition to the changes otherwise authorized by the changes clause of this contract, should the FPCON or HPCON levels at any individual facility or installation change, the Government may implement security changes that affect contract personnel.

The Contractor shall ensure all contract personnel are aware of their security responsibilities, including any site-specific requirements identified in local policies or procedures.

All LRN Contracts (EXCEPT for Supply and/or Delivery only contracts) “All contract personnel requiring physical access to a federal installation or facility shall comply with the access control procedures of that location. Contract personnel requiring unescorted access to meet contract performance requirements on DoD property in the US shall be vetted by the District Security Office using the National Crime database and Terrorist Screening Database. Contract personnel shall comply with all personal identity verification requirements specified in facility policies and procedures. Contract personnel who do not meet requirements for unescorted access to USACE facilities shall coordinate escorted access with the Government representative, as needed. Contract personnel who receive keys, access cards, or lock combinations that provide access to government-owned property shall comply with key and lock control procedures of the RA.”

Since the work is being done within a controlled area but is expected to last less than six months, the investigation requirements fall under Category B1 for US Citizens and Category C for Foreign Nationals. Contract employees will need to be supervised/ escorted by a Corps employee while within the restricted area. In the event it is determined the contract will extend beyond six months, the contractor will need to comply with the requirements in Category B2 for US Citizens. Guidance and forms for the requirements are available on the Nashville District Public Website:

https://www.lrd.usace.army.mil/Submit-ArticleCS/Programs/Article/3667149/contracting/ “Contract and sub-contract employees are not authorized to begin work on any contract until investigation requirements have been completed and notification has been made by the COR or the District Security Office.”

Suspicious Activity Reporting Training (e.g. iWATCH, CorpsWatch, See Something, Say Something) “All contract personnel shall receive initial and annual refresher training from the RA representative on the local suspicious activity reporting program. This locally developed training provides contract personnel with general information on suspicious behavior, and guidance on reporting suspicious activity to the project manager, security representative or law enforcement entity.” Also ADD “The contractor and all associated sub-contractors shall receive training on the local Suspicious Activity Reporting Program. This training identifies behavioral indicators and provides guidance reporting suspicious activity. This training shall be completed within 30 calendar days of contract award and within 30 calendar days of new employees commencing performance with the results reported to the COR NLT 5 calendar days after the completion of the training.
