Constructability of the project as designed is the sole responsibility of the DB

Contractor. To ensure that the design can be constructed within schedule and budget and that the sequencing of construction is planned for optimum efficiency, the DB

Contractor should assure that:

• Materials, processes, equipment and labor are appropriate and available.

• Construction work required is in conformance with standard construction practices, and equipment, products, materials, fixtures, etc. are readily available in the marketplace, to the maximum extent possible.

• Building systems are compatible and viable.

2.12 SECURITY CLEARANCE REQUIREMENTS

A. The Contractor shall agree to insert terms that conform substantially to the language of this clause, including the following, in all subcontracts.

B. The Contractor shall not be allowed to maintain keys to Tenant Agency (TA) space or permitted to have access to TA space without the approval of the TA, Physical

Security Unit

C. It is the responsibility of the Contractor to ensure all contractor personnel are in full compliance with applicable Immigration and Naturalization Service, US Department of Justice, Employee Eligibility Verification requirements, such as those set forth in Title

8, U.S. Code, Section 274a.

D. A background investigation, the scope of which will be at the discretion of the

TA, will be conducted on these individuals. At the discretion of the TA, contract individuals may also be interviewed by the TA (or TA contract investigators) regarding foreign travel, associates, residences or other matters of concern to the TA in deciding whether to grant access to its facilities, property, or information, and may be requested to undergo a polygraph examination to fully resolve any security concerns. Refusal or failure to accurately complete the forms, to be interviewed, or to undergo a polygraph examination to resolve any questionable matters will be deemed reasonable cause for denial of access to TA facilities, property or information. Lack of candor may also be a strong factor for denial of access.

E. Access to TA facilities, property or information, will be granted only where such access is clearly consistent with the mission and responsibilities of the TA. If, for any reason, a contract individual is denied access to any TA facility, property or information, the TA will not disclose to the contractor the reason for denial and will only make such disclosure to the affected contractor employee pursuant to the provisions of the

Freedom of Information or Privacy Acts. The TA will not be liable for any expense in the replacement of the individual or any costs incurred by the contractor as a result of such denial. It is the policy of the TA that these individuals already employed by the contracting organization/ individual (i.e., that the individual’s employment not hinge upon an access or security clearance determination by the TA) and the TA will assume no liability between the contracting organization and its employees as a result of this procedure.

F. The TA reserves the right to revoke any contract individual's access to its facilities, property or information, where such access is no longer clearly consistent with the TA's mission and responsibilities, and the contractor agrees to immediately remove that individual from the work site in such circumstances. In cases of access revocation, the TA will inform the individual of the basis for the revocation unless to do so would reveal classified or sensitive information; and provide the individual an opportunity to explain, rebut or refute such basis in writing. Access will remain revoked pending prompt review of any such submission by the individual.

G. The TA reserves the right to reinvestigate contract individuals on a periodic basis (usually every five years) or where facts or information indicate the continued access may no longer be clearly consistent with the TA’s mission and responsibilities. The scope of any reinvestigation will be at the sole discretion of the

TA. Refusal or failure to accurately complete any necessary forms, to be interviewed, or to undergo a polygraph examination to resolve any questionable matters during a reinvestigation will be deemed reasonable cause for revocation of access to TA facilities, property or information.

H. It is the responsibility of the Contractor to ensure all contractor personnel are in full compliance with applicable Immigration and Naturalization Service, US Department of

Justice, Employee Eligibility Verification requirements, such as those set forth in Title 8, U.S. Code, Section 274a.
