(2) BADGES/PASSES.

(a) Contractor employees entering the Detroit Arsenal are responsible for obtaining, and then returning, security identification badges/passes and vehicle registration decals/passes. Badges are valid only for the date spans indicated, by the government, on each badge application form (STA Form 17).

(i) Obtaining Badges. Government sponsor must prepare and submit a properly completed STA Form 17 (Visitor

Notification and/or Temporary Security Identification Badge Application) to the Detroit Arsenal Visitor Control Center not less than 96 hours prior to scheduled visit.

(ii) Returning Badges. The government sponsor is responsible to ensure the security identification badges are returned to the Visitor Control Center, Bldg 232, upon expiration or termination of the contract relationship with the contract employee. Failure to comply with the requirements in this paragraph may be grounds for withholding any funds due the contractor until completion of the requirement, notwithstanding any other clause or requirements in the contract. Failure to comply may also be taken into account by the government in evaluating the contractors past performance on future acquisitions.

Badge Guidance.

(b) All contractor employees, while on the premises at the Detroit Arsenal, shall continually wear the badge, which shall be visible at all times between the neck and waist of the individual.

Badges will be secured from public view when off post and will not be left in privately owned or contractor vehicles unattended. Stolen or lost badges will be promptly reported to DES, USAG Detroit.

(c) The identification badge or pass issued to contractor employee(s) is for their own use only.

Misuse of badge or pass, such as permitting others to use it can result in criminal charges under Title 18 USC 499 and 701, and barring the employee from the Detroit Arsenal property.

(d) If the contractor obtains a new or follow-on contract that again requires physical access to the Detroit Arsenal property, he shall obtain new badges for his employees, indicating the new or follow-on contract number. The security policies described in this clause apply to any contractor employee on base in connection with any contract with TACOM-Warren.

(3) MEETING ATTENDANCE. Any contractor employee attending meetings with Government employees within or outside the Detroit Arsenal boundaries, shall, at the beginning of the meeting, announce that he/she is a contractor employee. He/she must state the Contractor's name and address, and state the name of all other companies or persons that (a) currently employ him, or (b) that he currently represents. In addition, for the duration of the meetings, the contractor employee shall wear a second visible badge that displays the contractor's company name.

(4) CLASSIFIED ACCESS. If a visiting contractor is working on a classified contract, his/her visit request, with security clearance information, must be sent to the G2, TACOM LCMC (SMO Code W4GGAA* or W4GGAA5, AMSTA-CSS, Office Phone 586-282-6262, Fax 586-282- 6362) and their sponsoring activity. Government employees hosting meetings will verify contractor employees’ security clearance information with their supporting Security Coordinator or G2, TACOM LCMC using JPAS or the TACOM LCMC Access Roster prior to providing contractor access to classified information based on the approved DD254.

(5) REGULATORY COMPLIANCE.
