5. Authority
a. Guards shall have the authority, via this contract, on behalf of the Commanding Officer, U.S.
Army Engineer District - Detroit, to enforce all Army directives from higher authority and all local directives as well as other rules and regulations issued under the authority of the Commanding Officer. The proper method for enforcing such directives, rules, and regulations will depend upon the circumstances of each individual case but may include reporting of violators, apprehension of intruders, and detention of military or civilians pending arrival of security police or other appropriate authority in order that investigation, determination of identity and circumstances, and proper disposition may be carried out. In all cases, the authority for enforcement must be properly exercised using good, sound judgment. Immediate coordination through the shift supervisor with the security office shall be made when apprehension or detention is utilized.
b. Guards have only the same power of arrest as a private citizen. The guards may arrest, without a warrant, persons reasonably and in good faith believed to be guilty of a felony, where a felony has in fact been committed; and arrest persons committing a felony in their presence. Guards may also arrest persons committing a misdemeanor in their presence if the persons are also involved in a breach of the peace. As private citizens, guards have a right to protect their own lives and property and as employees of the Contractor they have a special right to protect the property and personnel of the Government from criminal injuries.
c. Under the authority of the District Engineer, guards have the power to detain military personnel or civilians for appropriate investigation and disposition in performing their function to secure Government property and personnel. This detention shall be only for the minimum amount of time necessary to make a proper disposition of the individual involved according to the circumstances of the case.
6. FIREARM SAFETY. No guard shall remove his/her assigned weapon from its holster except in the event of an emergency, upon the turn-in of the weapon, or when directed to do so by an immediate supervisor. Safety rules are to be followed at all times and are repeated below:
a. Under normal circumstances the chamber of the weapon will be empty and the magazine fully loaded.
b. Never draw your gun unless you intend to use it. Waving a gun in a threatening manner is dangerous and will tell an experienced criminal that the user is inexperienced.
c. Never point a gun at anyone except in line of duty. Remember, a gun should always be treated as if it is loaded.
d. Never carry a gun in a position where it cannot be used immediately. Keys or other items shall not be attached to the gun butt.
e. Never surrender your gun to anyone except to the shift supervisor who is authorized to make an inspection or to the issuing authority at conclusion of tour of duty.
f. Never remove your gun when on duty unless its use is imminent.
g. Never load or unload your weapon, unless during an emergency, in any location except the weapons stowage area.
h. Always load weapon immediately when issued and going on duty.
7. ADDITIONAL CONSIDERATIONS INVOLVING FIREARMS. A commanding officer may impose further restrictions on the use of deadly force if deemed necessary in his/her judgment and if such restrictions would not unduly compromise the national security interest of the United States. Additional requirements for the use of firearms:
a. Warning shots are prohibited.
b. When a firearm is discharged, it will be fired with the intent of rendering the person(s) at whom it is discharged incapable of continuing the activity or course of behavior prompting the individual to shoot.
c. Shots shall be fired only with due regard for the safety of innocent bystanders.
d. In the case of holstered weapons, a weapon should not be removed from the holster unless there is reasonable expectation that use of the weapon is necessary.
8. Conditions Under Which Security Force Personnel May Use Deadly Force. Deadly force is that force which a person uses with the purpose of causing - or which he/she knows, or should know, would create a substantial risk of causing - death or serious bodily harm. General guidance on the use of deadly force is contained in AR 190-14. Its use is justified only under conditions of extreme necessity as a last resort, when all lesser means have failed or cannot reasonably be employed, and only under one or more of the following circumstances:
a. Self-Defense and Defense of Others. When deadly force reasonably appears to be necessary to protect law enforcement or security personnel who reasonably believe themselves or others to be in imminent danger of death or serious bodily harm.
b. Assets Not Involving National Security. When deadly force reasonably appears to be necessary to prevent the threatened theft or sabotage of assets vital to national security. DOD assets shall be specifically designated as "vital to national security" only when their loss, damage, or compromise would seriously jeopardize the fulfillment of a national defense mission. Examples include nuclear weapons (Nuclear Regulatory Commission, 16 USC 7355, requires contract guards to use deadly force to deter theft of nuclear stores); nuclear command, control, and communications facilities; and designated restricted areas containing strategic operational assets, sensitive codes, or special access programs.
c. Assets Not Involving National Security But Inherently Dangerous to Others. When deadly force reasonably appears necessary to prevent the actual theft or sabotage of resources, such as operable weapons or ammunition, that are inherently dangerous to others; i.e., assets that, in the hands of an unauthorized individual, present a substantial potential danger of death or serious bodily harm to others. Examples include high risk portable and lethal missiles, rockets, arms, ammunition, explosives, chemical agents, and special nuclear material.
d. Serious Offenses Against Persons. When deadly force reasonably appears necessary to prevent the commission of a serious offense involving violence and threatening death or serious bodily harm. Examples include murder, armed robbery, and aggravated assault.
e. Arrest and Apprehension. When deadly force reasonably appears to be necessary to arrest, apprehend, or prevent the escape of a person who, there is probable cause to believe, has committed an offense of the nature specified in paragraphs a through d above.
f. Escapes. When deadly force has been specifically authorized by the Secretary of the Army and reasonably appears to be necessary to prevent the escape of a prisoner, provided law enforcement or security personnel have probable cause to believe that the escaping prisoner poses a threat of serious bodily harm either to security personnel or others.
9. LIMITS OF USACE JURISDICTION. The Commanding Officer of this activity has the following types of jurisdiction within the specified boundaries:
a. Exclusive jurisdiction exists when the Government possesses, by whatever method acquired, all of the authority of the State, and in which the State concerned has not reserved to itself the right to exercise any of the authority concurrently with the Government, except the right to service civil or criminal processes in the area. State laws are enforced on the facility only under the Assimilative Crimes Act.
b. Concurrent jurisdiction exists when, in granting to the Government authority, which would otherwise amount to exclusive jurisdiction over an area, the State reserves to itself the right to exercise, concurrently with the United States, all of the same authority.
c. Partial jurisdiction exists when the Government has been granted authority over an area in the State, but where the State has reserved to itself the right to exercise by itself or concurrently with the Government other authority constituting more than merely the right to serve civil or criminal processes in the area; for example, the right to tax private property.
d. Proprietorial Interest (proprietary jurisdiction) exists when the United States has acquired an interest in, or title to, property but has no legislative jurisdiction over the property. Congress has not authorized federal prosecution for most ordinary crimes committed on such property.
Guards have no jurisdiction outside these boundaries other than that of a civilian unless they have received authority from State or Local authorities.
10. FIRE CALLS, AMBULANCE RUNS, LOCAL/STATE POLICE IN "HOT PURSUIT". In emergency situations the guard shall allow the vehicle(s) to pass without delay but shall immediately notify the shift supervisor so that roving patrol personnel can assist in the emergency. Guards shall identify individual emergency responders visually and ask for identification if warranted to prevent imposters from gaining facility access. Guards may be called upon to assist in ambulance operation or in emergencies to assist the Fire Department; however, assistance to the Fire Department will not require guards to perform hazardous fire fighting duties.
11. LAW ENFORCEMENT AGENCIES. Cooperation with Federal, State, County, and Local authorities shall be maintained. If such officials call in an official capacity, they shall be directed to the Security Officer during regular working hours, and to the Duty Officer during non-working hours. The on site Contractor Representative shall develop and maintain a good working relationship with Federal, state, county, and local law enforcement agencies and fire.
12. REPORTS. Reporting of information relative to unusual happenings, threats, or actual damage to property, safety hazards, maintenance breakdowns, potential sabotage or espionage, injuries, etc. shall be brief and complete as to who, what, where, why, when, and how.
a. Security Log. The Security Log will be maintained at Post No. 1. Filled log books shall be turned into station security officer for archiving.
b. Incident Reports. Each report shall be numbered corresponding to the numbers on the Security Log. Reports may be handwritten (legibly) or typed.
