(a) Mr./Ms. Shawn Moorefield of Federal Bureau of Prisons [Room No.], Facilities Management Branch, 320 First St. NW Washing-ton, DC 20534, 202-307-0954, is hereby designated to act as Contracting Officer's Technical Representative (COTR) under this con-tract.

(b) The COTR is responsible, as applicable, for: receiving all deliverables, inspecting and accepting the supplies or services provided hereunder in accordance with the terms and conditions of this contract; providing direction to the contractor which clarifies the con-tract effort, fills in details or otherwise serves to accomplish the contractual Scope of Work; evaluating performance; and certifying all invoices/vouchers for acceptance of the supplies or services furnished for payment.

(c) The COTR does not have the authority to alter the contractor's obligations under the contract, and/or modify any of the expressed terms, conditions, specifications, or cost of the agreement. If as a result of technical discussions it is desirable to alter/change contrac-tual obligations or the Scope of Work, the Contracting Officer shall issue such changes.

(End of Clause)

2852.223-70 Unsafe Conditions Due to the Presence of Hazardous Material (June 1996)

(a) "Unsafe condition" as used in this clause means the actual or potential exposure of contractor or Government employees to a haz-ardous material as defined in Federal Standard No. 313, and any revisions thereto during the term of this contract, or any other materi-al or working condition designated by the Contracting Officer's Technical Representative (COTR) as potentially hazardous and requir-ing safety controls.

(b) The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) is responsible for issuing and administering regulations that require contractors to apprise its employees of all hazards to which they may be exposed in the course of their employment; proper conditions and precautions for safe use and exposure; and related symptoms and emergency treatment in the event of exposure.

(c) Prior to commencement of work, contractors are required to inspect for and report to the contracting officer or designee the pres-ence of, or suspected presence of, any unsafe condition including asbestos or other hazardous materials or working conditions in areas in which they will be working.

(d) If during the performance of the work under this contract, the contractor or any of its employees, or subcontractor employees, dis-covers the existence of an unsafe condition, the contractor shall immediately notify the contracting officer, or designee, (with written notice provided not later than three (3) working days thereafter) of the existence of an unsafe condition. Such notice shall include the contractor's recommendations for the protection and the safety of Government, contractor and subcontractor personnel and property that may be exposed to the unsafe condition.

(e) When the Government receives notice of an unsafe condition from the contractor, the parties will agree on a course of action to mitigate the effects of that condition and, if necessary, the contract will be amended. Failure to agree on a course of action will consti-tute a dispute under the Disputes clause of this contract.

(f) Nothing contained in this clause shall relieve the contractor or subcontractors from complying with applicable Federal, State, and local laws, codes, ordinances and regulations (including the obtaining of licenses and permits) in connection with hazardous material including but not limited to the use, disturbance, or disposal of such material.

(End of Clause)

DJAR-PGD-05-08 Implementation of Homeland Security Presidential Directive (HSPD) 12 - Policy for a Common Identification Standard for Federal Employees and Contractor

NOTICE OF CONTRACTOR PERSONNEL SECURITY REQUIREMENTS

Compliance with Homeland Security Presidential Directive-12 (HSPD-12) and Federal Information Processing Standard Publication 201 (FIPS 201)' entitled "Personal Identification Verification (PIV) for Federal Employees and Contractors," Phase I.

1. Long-Term Contractor Personnel:

In order to be compliant with HSPD-12/PIV I, the following investigative requirements must be met for each new long-term2 con-tractor employee whose background investigation (BI) process begins on or after October 27, 2005:

a. Contractor Personnel must present two forms of identification in original form prior to badge issuance (acceptable documents are listed in Form 1-9, OMB No. 1615-0047, " Employment Eligibility Verification," and at least one document must be a valid State or Federal government-issued picture ID);

b. Contractor Personnel must appear in person at least once before a DOJ official who is responsible for checking the identification documents. This identity proofing must be completed sometime during the clearance process but prior to badge issuance and must be documented by the DOJ official;

c. Contractor Personnel must undergo a BI commensurate with the designated risk level associated with the duties of each position.

Outlined below are the minimum BI requirements for each risk level:

•High Risk - Background Investigation (5 year scope) •Moderate Risk - Limited Background Investigation (LBI) or Minimum Background Investigation (MBI) •Low Risk - National Agency Check with Inquiries (NACI) investigation

d. The pre-appointment BI waiver requirements for all position sensitivity levels are a:

1) Favorable review of the security questionnaire form;

2) Favorable fingerprint results;

3) Favorable credit report, if required;3

4) Waiver request memorandum, including both the Office of Personnel Management schedule date and position sensitivity/risk level; and 5) Favorable review of the National Agency Check (NAC)4 portion of the applicable BI that is determined by position sensitivity/risk level.

A badge may be issued following approval of the above waiver requirements.

If the NAC is not received within five days of OPM' s scheduling date, the badge can be issued based on a favorable review of the Se-curity Questionnaire and the Federal Bureau of Investigation Criminal History Check (i.e., fingerprint check results).

e. Badge re-validation will occur once the investigation is completed and favorably adjudicated. If the BI results so justify, badges is-sued under these procedures will be suspended or revoked.

2. Short-Term Contractor Personnel:

It is the policy of the DOJ that short-term contractors having access to DOJ information systems and/or DOJ facilities or space for six months or fewer are subject to the identity proofing requirements listed in items la. and lb. above. The pre-appointment waiver re-quirements for short-term contractors are:

a.Favorable review of the security questionnaire form;

b.Favorable fingerprint results;

c.Favorable credit report, if required;5 and d.Waiver request memorandum indicating both the position sensitivity/risk level and the duration of the appointment. The commen-surate BI does not need to be initiated.

A badge may be issued following approval of the above waiver requirements and the badge will expire six months from the date of is-suance. This process can only be used once for a short-term contractor in a twelve month period. This will ensure that any consecutive short-term appointments are subject to the full PFV-I identity proofing process.

RFPP0700CCPNP10137 Page 7 of 25

For example, if a contractor employee requires daily access for a three or four-week period, this contractor would be cleared according to the above short-term requirements. However, if a second request is submitted for the same contractor employee within a twelve-month period for the purpose of extending the initial contract or for employment under a totally different contract for another three or four-week period, this contractor would now be considered "long-term" and must be cleared according to the long-term requirements as stated in this interim policy.

3. Intermittent Contractors:

An exception to the above-mentioned short-term requirements would be intermittent contractors.

a. For purposes of this policy, "intermittent" is defined as those contractor employees needing access to DOJ information systems and/ or DOJ facilities or space for a maximum of one day per week, regardless of the duration of the required intermittent access. For ex-ample, the water delivery contractor that delivers water one time each week and is working on a one-year contract.

b. Contractors requiring intermittent access should follow the Department's escort policy. Please reference the August 11, 2004, and January 29, 2001, Department Security Officer policy memoranda that conveys the requirements for contractor facility escorted ac-cess.

c. Due to extenuating circumstances, if a component requests unescorted access or DOJ IT system access for an intermittent contract-or, the same pre-employment background investigation waiver requirements that apply to short-term contractors are required.

d. If an intermittent contractor is approved for unescorted access, the contractor will only be issued a daily badge. The daily badge will be issued upon entrance into a DOJ facility or space and must be returned upon exiting the same facility or space.

e. If an intermittent contractor is approved for unescorted access, the approval will not exceed one year. If the intermittent contractor requires unescorted access beyond one year, the contractor will need to be re-approved each year.

4. An individual transferring from another department or agency shall not be re-adjudicated provided the individual has a current (within the last five years), favorably adjudicated BI meeting HSPD-12 and DOJ's BI requirements.

5.The DOJ's current escorted contractor policy remains unchanged by this acquisition notice.

NOTES:

1. FIPS 201 is available at: www.csrc.nist.gov/publications/fips/fips201 /FIPS-201-22505.pdf.

2. Under HSPD-12, long-term contractors are contractors having access to DOJ information systems and/or DOJ facilities or space for six months or longer. The PIV-I identity proofing process, including initiation and adjudication of the required background investiga-tion, is required for all new long-term contractors regardless of whether it is the current practice to issue a badge. The second phase of HSPD-12 implementation (PIV-II) requires badge issuance to all affected long-term contractors.

3. For contractors in position sensitivity/risk levels above level 1, a favorable review of a credit check is required as part of the pre-appointment waiver package.

4. In order to avoid a delay in the hiring process, components should request an Advance NAC Report when initiating investigations to OPM. Per OPM 's instructions, to obtain an Advance NAC Report, a Code " 3" must be placed in block "B " of the " Agency Use Only " section of the investigative form. This report is available for all case types.

5. For contractors in position sensitivity/risk levels above level 1, a favorable review of a credit check is required as part of the pre-appointment waiver package.

(End of Clause)

DJAR-PGD-06-09 Reprogramming of Funds Notices to Congress for A-76 Competitions

Congressional Notification

Under the provisions of section 605(a) of the Department of Justice's appropriations act, an award in this procurement triggers a re-quirement that the Department notify congressional appropriations committees of actions resulting from the award which may include reorganization or contracting out of functions or activities presently performed by Federal employees.

An award in this procurement, and its implementation, are contingent upon satisfactory completion of the process required under sec-tion 605(a). After award, the Department will notify the source provider when this process has been satisfactorily completed and that implementation may begin. In the event that either congressional committee expresses reservations, the Department may cancel the procurement and award, without charge or penalty. Because the contract/performance start date could be delayed or actually cancelled due to the reprogramming notice to Congress, it is understandable not to include the expected start date in A-76 solicitations.

However, the lack of a contract/performance start date makes it difficult for potential source providers to propose realistic pricing in their proposals.

As a best practice, it is recommended that future solicitations for streamlined or standard competitions include a notice similar to the following sentences.

For pricing purposes only, offerors shall assume a contract/performance start date of XXXXXXXXXXX, which is the date it is as-sumed that the transition/phase-in period begins. The actual contract/performance start date may be different. (See the "Congressional Notification" term of the solicitation).

(End of Clause)

RFPP0700CCPNP10137 Page 8 of 25

DJAR-PGD-07-10 Ensuring New Acquisitions Include Common Security Configurations

The following language is to be used in all appropriate solicitations and contracts.

(a) The provider of information technology shall certify applications are fully functional and operate correctly as intended on systems using the Federal Desktop Core Configuration (FDCC). This includes Internet Explorer 7 configured to operate on Windows XP and Vista (in Protected Mode on Vista). For the Windows XP settings, see: http://csrc.nist.gov/itsec/guidance_WinXP.html and for the Windows Vista settings, see: http://csrc.nist.gov/itsec/guidance_vista.html

(b) The standard installation, operation, maintenance, update, and/or patching of software shall not alter the configuration settings from the approved FDCC configuration. The information technology should also use the Windows Installer Service for installation to the default "program files" directory and should be able to silently install and uninstall.

(End of Clause)

DJAR-PGD-07-12 Maintaining Contractor Performance During a Pandamic or Other Emergency

Continuing Contract Performance During a Pandemic Influenza or other National Emergency

During a Pandemic or other emergency we understand that our contractor workforce will experience the same high levels of absentee-ism as our federal employees. Although the Excusable Delays and Termination for Default clauses used in government contracts list epidemics and quarantine restrictions among the reasons to excuse delays in contract performance, we expect our contractors to make a reasonable effort to keep performance at an acceptable level during emergency periods.

The Office of Personnel Management (OPM) has provided guidance to federal managers and employees on the kinds of actions to be taken to ensure the continuity of operations during emergency periods. This guidance is also applicable to our contract workforce.

Contractors are expected to have reasonable policies in place for continuing work performance, particularly those performing mission critical services, during a pandemic influenza or other emergency situation.

The types of actions a federal contractor should reasonably take to help ensure performance are:

Encourage employees to get inoculations or follow other preventive measures as advised by the public health service.

Contractors should cross-train workers as backup for all positions performing critical services. This is particularly important for work such as guard services where telework is not an option.

• Implement telework to the greatest extent possible in the workgroup so systems are in place to support successful remote work in an emergency.

• Communicate expectations to all employees regarding their roles and responsibilities in relation to remote work in the event of a pandemic health crisis or other emergency.

Establish communication processes to notify employees of activation of this plan.

• Integrate pandemic health crisis response expectations into telework agreements.

With the employee, assess requirements for working at home (supplies and equipment needed for an extended telework period). Se-curity concerns should be considered in making equipment choices; agencies or contractors may wish to avoid use of employees' per-sonal computers and provide them with PCs or laptops as appropriate.

• Determine how all employees who may telework will communicate with one another and with management to accomplish work.

Practice telework regularly to ensure effectiveness.

• Make it clear that in emergency situations, employees must perform all duties assigned by management, even if they are outside usu-al or customary duties.

• Identify how time and attendance will be maintained.

It is the contractor's responsibility to advise the government contracting officer if they anticipate not being able to perform and to work with the Department to fill gaps as necessary. This means direct communication with the contracting officer or in his/her absence, an-other responsible person in the contracting office via telephone or email messages acknowledging the contractors notification.

The incumbent contractor is responsible for assisting the Department in estimating the adverse impacts of nonperformance and to work diligently with the Department to develop a strategy for maintaining the continuity of operations.

(End of Clause)

DJAR-PGD-08-04 Security of Systems and Data, Including Personally Identifiable Information

Security of Systems and Data, Including Personally Identifiable Data.

a. Systems Security The work to be performed under this contract requires the handling of data that originated within the Department, data that the con-tractor manages or acquires for the Department, and/or data that is acquired in order to perform the contract and concerns Department programs or personnel.

For all systems handling such data, the contractor shall comply with all security requirements applicable to Department of Justice sys-

RFPP0700CCPNP10137 Page 9 of 25 tems, including but not limited to all Executive Branch system security requirements (e.g., requirements imposed by OMB and NIST), DOJ IT Security Standards, and DOJ Order 2640.2E. The contractor shall provide DOJ access to and information regarding the con-tractor's systems when requested by the Department in connection with its efforts to ensure compliance with all such security require-ments, and shall otherwise cooperate with the Department in such efforts. DOJ access shall include independent validation testing of controls, system penetration testing by DOJ, FISMA data reviews, and access by the DOJ Office of the Inspector General for its re-views.

b. Data Security

By acceptance of, or performance on, this contract, the contractor agrees that with respect to the data identified in paragraph a, in the event of any actual or suspected breach of such data (i.e., loss of control, compromise, unauthorized disclosure, access for an unau-thorized purpose, or other unauthorized access, whether physical or electronic), the contractor will immediately (and in no event later than within one hour of discovery) report the breach to the DOJ CO and the contracting officer's technical representative (COTR).

If the data breach occurs outside of regular business hours and/or neither the CO nor the COTR can be reached, the contractor shall call the DOJ Computer Emergency Readiness Team (DOJCERT) at 1-866-US4-CERT (1-866-874-2378) within one hour of discovery of the breach. The contractor shall also notify the CO as soon as possible during regular business hours.

Information Resellers or Data Brokers

Under this contract, the Department obtains personally identifiable information about individuals from the contractor. The contractor hereby certifies that it has a security policy in place which contains procedures to promptly notify any individual whose personally identifiable information (as defined by OMB) was, or is reasonably believed to have been, lost or acquired by an unauthorized person while the data is under the control of the contractor. In any case in which the data that was lost or improperly acquired reflects or con-sists of data that originated with the Department, or reflects sensitive law enforcement or national security interest in the data, the con-tractor shall notify the Department contracting officer so that the Department may determine whether notification would impede a law enforcement investigation or jeopardize national security. In such cases, the contractor shall not notify the individuals until it receives

52.24-403-70 Notice of Contractor Personnel Security Requirements (OCT 2005)

Compliance with Homeland Security Presidential Directive-12 (HSPD-12) and Federal Information Processing Standard Publication 201 (FIPS 201) 1 entitled "Personal Identification Verification (PIV) for Federal Employees and Contractors," Phase I.

1. Long-Term Contractor Personnel:

In order to be compliant with HSPD-12/PIV I, the following investigative requirements must be met for each new long-term 2 con-tractor employee whose background investigation (BI) process begins on or after October 27, 2005:

a. Contractor Personnel must present two forms of identification in original form prior to badge issuance (acceptable documents are listed in Form I-9, OMB No. 1615-0047, "Employment Eligibility Verification," and at least one document must be a valid State or Federal government-issued picture ID);

b. Contractor Personnel must appear in person at least once before a DOJ official who is responsible for checking the identification documents. This identity proofing must be completed sometime during the clearance process but prior to badge issuance and must be documented by the DOJ official;

c. Contractor Personnel must undergo a BI commensurate with the designated risk level associated with the duties of each position.

Outlined below are the minimum BI requirements for each risk level:

• High Risk - Background Investigation (5 year scope)

• Moderate Risk - Limited Background Investigation (LBI) or Minimum Background Investigation (MBI)

• Low Risk - National Agency Check with Inquiries (NACI) investigation

d. The pre-appointment BI waiver requirements for all position sensitivity levels are a:

1) Favorable review of the security questionnaire form;

2) Favorable fingerprint results;

3) Favorable credit report, if required;3

4) Waiver request memorandum, including both the Office of Personnel Management schedule date and position sensitivity/risk level;

and

5) Favorable review of the National Agency Check (NAC) 4 portion of the applicable BI that is determined by position sensitivity/risk level.

A badge may be issued following approval of the above waiver requirements.

If the NAC is not received within five days of OPM's scheduling date, the badge can be issued based on a favorable review of the Se-curity Questionnaire and the Federal Bureau of Investigation Criminal History Check (i.e., fingerprint check results).

e. Badge re-validation will occur once the investigation is completed and favorably adjudicated. If the BI results so justify, badges is-sued under these procedures will be suspended or revoked.

2. Short-Term Contractor Personnel:

It is the policy of the DOJ that short-term contractors having access to DOJ information systems and/or DOJ facilities or space for six months or fewer are subject to the identity proofing requirements listed in items 1a. and 1b. above. The pre-appointment waiver re-quirements for short-term contractors are:

a. Favorable review of the security questionnaire form;

b. Favorable fingerprint results;

c. Favorable credit report, if required;5 and

d. Waiver request memorandum indicating both the position sensitivity/risk level and the duration of the appointment. The commen-surate BI does not need to be initiated.

A badge may be issued following approval of the above waiver requirements and the badge will expire six months from the date of is-suance. This process can only be used once for a short-term contractor in a twelve month period. This will ensure that any consecutive short-term appointments are subject to the full PIV-I identity proofing process.

For example, if a contractor employee requires daily access for a three or four-week period, this contractor would be cleared according to the above short-term requirements. However, if a second request is submitted for the same contractor employee within a twelve-month period for the purpose of extending the initial contract or for employment under a totally different contract for another three or four-week period, this contractor would now be considered "long-term" and must be cleared according to the long-term requirements

RFPP0700CCPNP10137 Page 11 of 25 as stated in this interim policy.

3. Intermittent Contractors:

An exception to the above-mentioned short-term requirements would be intermittent contractors.

a. For purposes of this policy, "intermittent" is defined as those contractor employees needing access to DOJ information systems and/ or DOJ facilities or space for a maximum of one day per week, regardless of the duration of the required intermittent access. For ex-ample, the water delivery contractor that delivers water one time each week and is working on a one-year contract.

b. Contractors requiring intermittent access should follow the Department's escort policy. Please reference the August 11, 2004, and January 29, 2001, Department Security Officer policy memoranda that conveys the requirements for contractor facility escorted ac-cess.

c. Due to extenuating circumstances, if a component requests unescorted access or DOJ IT system access for an intermittent contract-or, the same pre-employment background investigation waiver requirements that apply to short-term contractors are required.

d. If an intermittent contractor is approved for unescorted access, the contractor will only be issued a daily badge. The daily badge will be issued upon entrance into a DOJ facility or space and must be returned upon exiting the same facility or space.

e. If an intermittent contractor is approved for unescorted access, the approval will not exceed one year. If the intermittent contractor requires unescorted access beyond one year, the contractor will need to be re-approved each year.

4. An individual transferring from another department or agency shall not be re-adjudicated provided the individual has a current (within the last five years), favorably adjudicated BI meeting HSPD-12 and DOJ's BI requirements.

5. The DOJ's current escorted contractor policy remains unchanged by this acquisition notice.

Notes:

1. FIPS 201 is available at: www.csrc.nist.gov/publications/fips/fips201/FIPS-201-022505.pdf

2. Under HSPD-12, long-term contractors are contractors having access to DOJ information systems and/or DOJ facilities or space for six months or longer. The PIV-I identity proofing process, including initiation and adjudication of the required background investiga-tion, is required for all new long-term contractors regardless of whether it is the current practice to issue a badge. The second phase of HSPD-12 implementation (PIV-II) requires badge issuance to all affected long-term contractors.

3. For contractors in position sensitivity/risk levels above level 1, a favorable review of a credit check is required as part of the pre-appointment waiver package.

4. In order to avoid a delay in the hiring process, components should request an Advance NAC Report when initiating investigations to OPM. Per OPM ' s instructions, to obtain an Advance NAC Report, a Code " 3" must be placed in block " B " of the " Agency Use Only " section of the investigative form. This report is available for all case types.

5.For contractors in position sensitivity/risk levels above level 1, a favorable review of a credit check is required as part of the pre-appointment waiver package.
