At John Day Dam only, one Powerhouse Roving Guard shall be provided Monday through Friday, 16 hours per day, to investigate potential security incidents and to secure the Powerhouse in compliance with Army and NERC regulations. Typical duties include vehicle inspections, access control, roving patrols, responding to alarms based upon guidance from the Alarm Monitoring Guard, incident response, mitigation, and general surveillance. The Powerhouse Roving Guard shall provide relief for other guard posts, as required. Therefore, the Powerhouse Roving Guard shall meet all requirements of NERC CIP-004 for cyber access to Critical Cyber Assets, and shall obtain local Project authorization for that access.
5.7 Alarm Monitoring Guards
An Alarm Monitoring Guard is an Armed Guard who performs additional duties. These duties include monitoring the Physical Access Control System (PACS) to detect security events; utilizing CCTV or other methods to investigate the causes of security events; dispatching and coordinating response efforts for mitigation of detected security events. The Alarm Monitor Guard dispatches the Powerhouse Roving Guard to respond to alarms as they are detected.
Alarm Monitoring Guards shall be provided at The Dalles Dam and John Day Dam. At The Dalles Dam only, the Alarm Monitoring Guard also functions as the Oregon Gate Guard. Bonneville Dam does not require alarm Monitoring Guards at this time.
All Alarm Monitoring Guards shall be trained and licensed to meet the requirements for Occupation Code 27004, and shall meet the NERC CIP-004 requirements for cyber (logon) access to PACS.
All guards assigned to alarm monitoring duties under this contract shall be licensed with Oregon DPSST as Alarm Monitor Private Security Professionals. All certifications shall be submitted for all alarm monitoring guards prior to the commencement of services.
The Alarm Monitor Guard maintains the Daily Activity Report (DAR). The Alarm Monitor Guard records all alarms received and the actions that were taken to resolve each alarm. Gate Guards and Roving Guards report incidents encountered to the Alarm Monitor Guard. The Alarm Monitor Guard records this information in the DAR and submits a daily report to the CORs. A consolidated DARS project report should be submitted electronically to the COR’s no later than 1700 hours of each day. If a reportable item is of critical nature, the individual report shall be submitted as soon as possible to all COR’s assigned to this contract.
All Powerhouses, Alarm Monitoring stations, and the Bonneville Security Office are subject to NERC regulations for Critical Infrastructure Protection. Upon discovery of any potential security breach in these areas, Contractor personnel shall attempt to resolve the situation. If resolved, the violation and the resolution shall be described in an incident report. If the situation cannot be resolved, Contractor personnel shall immediately notify the CORs and or the RCCs if available, or the Control Room operator.
Alarm monitoring positions shall be continuously staffed to meet Army and NERC regulations. Contractor shall train and license sufficient backup personnel to ensure continuous coverage when the regularly assigned Alarm Monitoring Guards are not available. At times when staffing is not adequate to support Alarm Monitoring and other duty posts due to situational events (not due to lack of personnel onsite), Alarm Monitoring shall take precedence. Prior written approval shall be received from the CORs if Alarm Monitoring duties will require a main gate to be unattended.
All guards assigned to alarm monitoring duties under this contract shall be licensed with Oregon DPSST as Alarm Monitor Private Security Professionals. All certifications shall be submitted for all alarm monitoring guards prior to the commencement of services.
All Armed Guards who will provide relief or backup for Alarm Monitoring Guards, shall meet the NERC CIP requirements for cyber (logon) access to PACS.
