FOREIGN VISITORS/EMPLOYEES

Contractors with valid U.S. government contracts will be allowed to hire non U.S. citizens to work at or visit U.S. Army Dugway Proving Ground (DPG) during performance of the contract. Contractor’s shall adhere to the following process. A list of foreign national employees shall be provided to the DPG Counterintelligence, Law Enforcement, and Security Offices at least five (5) working days prior to arrival on post. A copy of the list shall also be submitted to the Contracting Officer or an appointed Contracting Officer’s Representative (COR). The list will contain name, nationality, green card and social security number, date of birth, drivers license number and state where issued. The Contractor shall also list the date(s) foreign nationals will be on post. If a sensitive test or visit is scheduled during the dates provided, the Counterintelligence Office will inform the Contractor whether the work/visit may take place. Employees will not be allowed on Post until verification process is complete. Once verification has been received, the Counterintelligence Office is responsible to provide the Protocol Office the following information for badge preparation: Name, Company and Point-of-Contact. The Contracting Officer or COR will be responsible to pick-up the badges and holders, issue them to the visitor and return them at the end of the visit.

SECURITY BADGES AND/OR PROTECTIVE MASKS

The prime contractor is responsible for security badges and/or protective masks issued to their employees and/or employees of their subcontractor(s). A designated representative (being an officer or supervisor of the prime contractor) shall co-sign for each individual when obtaining the required item(s). Additionally, the contractor shall provide to the Contracting Officer or the appointed Contracting Officer’s Representative (COR) a list of employees requiring masks/badges under the awarded contract prior to initiation of work. The Contractor shall be required to submit a “certificate of return” for all masks/badges from the cognizant office(s), to the Contracting Officer or the COR. For item(s) not returned, the replacement cost of the items will be deducted from the invoice or the Contractor will be invoiced if the replacement cost exceeds the amount due the Contractor.

SAFETY AND ACCIDENT PREVENTION

During performance of work on the installation, the Contractor shall conform to all safety rules and requirements issued by the Dugway Safety Office. The Contractor shall take all reasonable steps and precautions to prevent accidents, and preserve and protect personnel and property. Any violations of established safety and accident prevention rules and regulations may be grounds for termination of this contract.

LOCATION OF US ARMY DUGWAY PROVING GROUND

U.S. Army Dugway Proving Ground is located in a remote area. The main gate is approximately 90 miles southwest of Salt Lake City, Utah. Contractors may be required to travel up to 150 miles one way from Salt Lake City to reach some work sites.

CONTRACTOR ACCESS TO DPG

Access to U.S. Army Dugway Proving Ground (DPG) requires that Contractor employees voluntarily submit personal data (e.g., name, social security number, etc.) when applying for a DPG Identification Card or temporary access pass. This information is routinely used by DPG Law Enforcement and Security personnel to conduct drivers license and criminal history / background checks. Adverse information revealed by such checks (e.g., outstanding criminal warrants, criminal history indicating a potential risk to DPG Installation security, or similar negative information indicating a potential security and/or Law Enforcement risk to DPG), may result in a denial of access and/or reentry to U.S. Army Dugway Proving Ground.

Delays caused by any adverse employee information do not constitute a basis for claim by the Contractor. It is the Contractor’s responsibility to assure all personnel scheduled to work on the installation have acceptable backgrounds.
