Under such circumstances and at the direction of the CO, the Contractor agrees not to interfere in any way with Government performance. The Contractor further agrees under such circumstances to permit the Government to use any essential contractor-furnished property. The Government will equitably compensate the Contractor for use of such property.

Contractor and subcontractor personnel shall be subject to dismissal from the premises upon determination by the CO that such action is in the best interests of the Government.

Any such individual(s) shall be subject to those security inspections which may be deemed necessary by the FLETC to ensure that no security violations occur during the course of the contract. It shall be the Contractor's responsibility to ensure that each applicant who is expected to perform on FLETC facilities or that requires routine access to FLETC facilities shall complete the most current versions of FLETC FTC-OSPR-17 Badge Application form, U.S. Customs and Immigration Service (USCIS) Employment Eligibility Verification I-9, Office of Personnel Management (OPM) Declaration for Federal Employment form OF- 306, and Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) Fingerprint Card FD-258 in order to undergo a suitability background investigation which will be either a fingerprint check, a National Agency Check with Written Inquiries (NACI) or a Minimum Background Investigation (MBI).

1) If an MBI or NACI investigation is required, Contractor and subcontractor personnel will be required to complete a Standard Form 85 (SF 85), Questionnaire for Non- Sensitive Positions, or SF 85P, Questionnaire for Public Trust Positions. An SF 85 is required to be filled out for a NACI. A NACI is performed on Contractor and subcontractor personnel who are considered low risk. An SF 85P is required to be filled out for an MBI. A MBI is normally conducted for Contractor and subcontractor personnel who are in a moderate risk position or have access to Sensitive But Unclassified (SBU) information in all its forms and markings. Individuals in this category include, but are not limited to, those working as educational aides, FLETC Security Police, firearms personnel, explosives handlers, and Information Technology (IT) specialists. In addition, the Contractor should ensure that they have completed an e-Verify search for all Foreign National (FN) Contractor and subcontractor personnel.

2) For a cleared contract, the security background check will be conducted on the Contractor (facility) and Contractor and subcontractor personnel by the Defense Industrial Security Clearance Office (DISCO).

b. The FLETC reserves the right and prerogative to deny and/or restrict facility and information access of any Contractor or subcontractor personnel whose actions are in conflict with the standards of conduct, 5 CFR 2635. In accordance with the most current version of FLETC Manual 71-01, Physical Access Control, Paragraph 6(G), an individual may be denied access to FLETC facilities. Examples of offenses which prevent access to the FLETC include, but are not limited to:

1) Any felony conviction within the last six years;

2) Any misdemeanor conviction of a serious nature within the last three years;

3) Multiple misdemeanor convictions within the last six years;

4) An active "habitual offender" classification for any violation of the law;

11) Past incidents that would reflect badly on the FLETC in the eyes of the public or that would otherwise pose a threat to the safety and security of FLETC personnel or property.

c. The Contractor shall report to the Chief Security Officer (CSO) any adverse information coming to their attention concerning Contractor and subcontractor personnel during the course of the contract. The report shall include the individual's name and social security number. If this information results in the subsequent termination of the individual's access to the FLETC, it does not obviate the requirement to submit this report.

d. Costs, delays and other hardships that result from Contractor or subcontractor personnel being denied access to the FLETC shall be borne entirely by the Contractor.

Denial of access for Contractor or subcontractor personnel to the FLETC by the CSO shall not be subject to the Contract Disputes clause and cannot be the basis for any claim under the contract.
