A.l.IO Security Clearance The nature of the contract guard services demands frequent and unsupervised contact between the contractor's employees and the FCI inmates. Contract guard companies must have completed a thorough pre-employment background investigation of all of its employees and certify all personnel assigned to guard federal prisoners have satisfactory clearance. The background requirements are located in Section A.l4. If derogatory information is uncovered (e.g. FBI fmgerprint/name check or urinalysis) after the individual has been hired by the contractor, a decision must be made by the FCI Personnel Security Specialist as to: (1) the suitability of the individual, and (2) whether or not to permit him/her to continue performance on the contract. This decision should be made in consultation with FCI's Warden and/or Captain. A positive urinalysis test will result in the disqualification of the contract employee. If it is determined the employee cannot be allowed further access to performance, the Captain, or his designee, will notify the contractor as soon as possible.

Primary considerations in making this determination are the extent to which the individual's past or present conduct may affect his/her performance as a guard, and/or extent to which such conduct may indicate a significant risk for abusing the BOP's mission.

Examples of disqualifying conduct are:

I . Criminal , dishonest, infamous, or notoriously disgraceful conduct;

2. Habitual use of intoxicating beverages to excess;

3. Use and/or distribution of narcotics, drugs, or other controlled substances; and

4. Reasonable doubt of loyalty to the United States Government.

The Warden or their designee will have full and final determination as to who will be permitted to provide guard services under this contract. Employees of the contractor must receive security clearance in accordance with the aforementioned provisions, prior to providing any services involving the direct supervision of an inmate. Any exceptions to the above requirements must be approved in writing by the Warden, and a copy of the approval must be maintained by the FCI Personnel Security Specialist.

A.l.ll Firearms It is the general policy of the BOP that contract guards are not to carry firearms while providing contract services over federal prisoners. The BOP, the FCI, or the Contracting Officer will not authorize a guard to carry a firearm at any time, nor will firearms be present, whether being worn or stored. If the Warden determines weapons are required to supervise inmates housed in outside medica/facilities, qualified Bureau staffs/tall be used.

A.1.12 Prisoner Assignment The BOP is responsible for assigning each hospitalized prisoner, under the Department of Justice, Federal Bureau of Prisons, custody, with a security level, and determining whether or not to entrust a prisoner to a contract guard. The FCI must consider the medical status of the prisoner, the prisoner's past history, information from the local police agencies concerning possible threats to the safety and security of the prisoner from outside persons, and the security level of the hospital.

A.l.13 System of Records In accordance with FAR 52.224-1 and 52.224-2, the contractor will occasionally use, disseminate, and/or handle inmate's records which will contain confidential medical and/or criminal history. All medical records will be handled in accordance with the Bureau of Prisons' Health Services Manual (6000.3) medical records policies, as amended. All criminal records will be viewed only by the guard on duty, or his/her immediate supervisor, and only for duty-related purposes. Information concerning the medical or criminal history of an inmate may only be released by the Executive Assistant of the FCI in accordance with the Privacy Act of 1974.

A.1.14Contractor Restrictions The contractor will not: Supervise BOP Staff, participate in inmate accountability, formulate policies or procedures, attend recalls or staff functions, or be a member of the Employees' Club.

Al.lS Payment Terms Contractor must provide a means for electronic payment to include bank routing and account number. Payment terms as specified in FAR 52.212-4(g) apply. The contractor shall provide a monthly invoice to the FCI Waseca Accounting Department which accurately reflects days worked, number of sessions, and the total amount due for the previous month's services. The due date for making an invoice payment by the designated payment office shall be the 30th day after the designated billing office has received a proper invoice, or the government has accepted the services performed by the contractor.
