3. REQUIREMENTS

3.1. Safety and Personnel Protective Equipment (PPE)

3.1.1. Personal Protective Equipment (PPE). The Contractor is responsible for providing all their employees PPE and ensuring they utilize PPE while on NNSY property. All personnel will follow site requirements for wearing PPE at all times while in a posted area. Mandatory PPE includes a hard hat that shall be identified with the name of the respective Contractor, safety glasses with side shields, steel-toed safety shoes, and hearing protection on their person in case it is needed. In addition, all personnel shall wear any additional PPE as appropriate to control hazards of the work being performed (examples: life vests, personal fall arrest systems).

3.1.2. Fall Protection. The Contractor shall provide and utilize proper guarding around every open-sided platform and work surface edge or shall use other means of fall protection to include a fall protection safety harness and lanyard, fall restraint system, safety nets, or other appropriate protection against fall hazards meeting the requirements of 29 CFR 1910, 29 CFR 1915, and 29 CFR 1926.

3.1.3. Non-Hazardous Streets and Pedestrian Walkways. Streets and marked pedestrian walkway/aisles within the CIA do not normally require the use of mandatory PPE.

Employees using these areas for passage only are encouraged to use PPE as specified in this chapter, but its use is not mandatory. Due to the dynamic nature of industrial operations in the CIA, hazardous operations may occur intermittently in these exempted areas. Personnel present in these areas, whether equipped with PPE or not, should remain alert at all times for operations which might create a hazard which exposure would be reduced by the proper use of PPE. In these cases, personnel should immediately leave the area of the hazard. Where the hazard cannot be avoided due to the nature of the employee's work assignment, the employee should immediately obtain and use the necessary PPE before returning to the area. This exemption does not apply on piers, dry docks, and in areas around or between dry docks.

3.1.4. Spill Contingency and Control. The Contractor shall notify Fire Division 757-396-3333 immediately upon discovery of any spill discharge, regardless if Contractor generated or by another source. Notification shall identify when spills/discharges are Contractor caused. The Contractor shall cleanup all Contractor-generated spills/discharges. The Contractor shall maintain cleanup capability commensurate with the spill potential of its work operations. A “clean-as-you-go” work methodology for Contractor work shall be used to maintain a level of cleanliness that will not or cause a work environment that may be unsafe.

3.1.5. Restricted items. Contractors are prohibited from bringing onto federal property the following items:

• All forms of alcohol and illegal drugs.

• Shotguns, handguns, machineguns, firearm silencers, ammunition of any type, blasting caps or similar items of explosive material (i.e. fireworks), starter or flare pistols, pellet or BB guns, dynamite, teargas and their dispensing devices, and other similar devices.

• Construction tools that require use of explosive materials are authorized if they are required to perform approved duties. Contractors who require one of the prohibited items listed above may bring the item onto the installation in performance of the contract (i.e., bird control, wild life management, etc.), but only when specified in the contract.

• Any blades in excess of four inches, switch blade knives, underwater spear guns, bows and arrows, crossbows, slingshots and blowguns, throw blade knives, blackjacks, nightsticks, clubs, brass knuckles, tomahawks, swords, bolas, fighting sticks, throwing discs, chains, and other similar items that can be used as a weapon.

3.2.1.2.4. Once on the 179-Day List, the contractor may go to Pass and ID to have their

DBIDS card generated.

3.2.1.2.5. Green NAVSEA access badges can be generated at this point with contractors providing proof of U.S. Citizenship (Birth Certificate/ US Passport).

3.2.2. Portable Electronic Device (PED).

3.2.2.1.

POLICY

• SECPROMAN Vol 1 5510.36 Rev E

In accordance with ref (a), personally owned camera enabled PEDs will be authorized inside of the Controlled Industrial Area (CIA) and all Security Islands.

Camera enabled PEDs will remain unauthorized within Controlled Nuclear Information Areas (CNIAs), Nuclear Work Areas (NWAs) and Open Storage Areas. All PEDs, camera enabled or not, are still prohibited within NWAs and Open Storage Areas. The allowance of camera enabled PEDs inside of the CIA and Security Islands does not negate existing photography policies. Unofficial photography, filming of video, or live streaming from the camera-enabled PED remains prohibited within the CIA or any NAVSEA controlled space outside of the CIA. Further, audio recordings (both digitally or magnetically) in NAVSEA spaces is prohibited without the approval of the Code 1120 Security Director.
