SPECIFIC TASKS

5.0 Basic Services

5.1 Access Control: The primary objective of the CSGs is access control. CSGs must ensure only authorized personnel are allowed unrestricted access to the Project, that all visitors are properly identified, and access controls are communicated and followed. In the event of unauthorized access, the CSG will take the appropriate corrective actions. The nature of accomplishing this will be guided by Force Protection Standards, the OPM, Project Security POC or District Security Office.

5.2 Physical Security: CSG will provide deterrent to any individuals considering or attempting any activity which may result from intent to cause harm or damage. CSG will monitor surveillance systems to detect activity which appears to indicate intrusion, vandalism, theft or other criminal or malicious activities on U.S. Army Corps of Engineers property. CSG will report, react, and provide means of response to incidence in occurrence.

5.3 Assistance: CSG must respond to request for assistance by USACE personnel or the public while on Federal Property. The CSG will perform menial administrative tasks to provide assistance, or CSG will contact the appropriate authority to aid. The nature of conduct in aiding will be guided by the OPM, Project Security POC or SOP’s.

5.4 Tasks

5.4.1 Access Control

5.4.1.1 Inspections of Visitors and Their Possessions: Escorted Visitors, visitors attending Public Events and other personnel must not be allowed to enter the Project with cameras, cell phones, other communication devices allowing the person the capability of transmitting information which might be sensitive in nature, or any other items deemed unacceptable as directed by the OPM, Project Security POC, or the District Security Office. CSGs must, at the behest of the Government, provide on-the-spot inspections of people entering the Project and their belongings. CSGs should constantly be vigilant for persons or packages of a suspicious nature. In the event a guard deems the situation warranted, the guard will delay entry, contact, and inform the OPM, Project Security POC or the COR of the situation prior to performing a security inspection.

5.4.1.2 Confiscation of Materials: If during a security inspection of either persons or vehicles entering the Project, the guard discovers materials deemed to be contraband, the guard will contact the OPM or Project Security POC to inform them of the contraband. The guard will inform the individual that the material is not allowed on the premises and may be stored outside of the controlled area. If dangerous, illegal, or otherwise suspicious items are discovered, the individual carrying those items will be delayed entry; the guard must inform the OPM and Project Security POC, before contacting the local authorities. The items should not be further handled until the authorities arrive.

5.4.1.3 Procedures for Accepting Deliveries: For deliveries being made to the

Project, all carriers will be required to provide guards proof of identification, the name of a USACE POC and a description of what they are delivering before being allowed access. The POC will be contacted to confirm the delivery. The delivery will not be allowed without the POC confirmation unless otherwise directed by the OPM or Project Security POC.

5.4.1.4 Employees with Access Badges: All USACE employees are required to wear their access badge in a visible location on the upper body within the confines of the Project perimeter except when doing so poses a safety risk (an employee directly involved in maintenance/repair work). If an employee fails to provide their access badge, the security guard may provide the employee an unescorted visitors badge after verification of the individual's identity. Unescorted visitor's badges will be authorized only until the close of the business day on which the badge was issued. Visitors will sign in on a log sheet prior to accepting the badge and sign out prior to relinquishing the badge upon departing the project. Badges will be considered a controlled item and should be safeguarded in a locked container when unneeded and after duty hours. If the security guard is unable to obtain verification of the visitor's identity, the visitor will be treated as an escorted guest.

5.4.1.5 Unescorted Visitors with Temporary Access Authorization: The OPM, Chief of Operations, or Security POC may authorize visitors unescorted access to the Project. Temporary access is generally granted for duration of longer than a day (short duration). Individuals provided with temporary access may include but are not limited to USACE employees from other Districts, Divisions or offices outside the District, Contractor employees cleared to work in the District, and employees from other federal agencies which have been cleared through the security office.

5.4.1.6 Unescorted Visitors of a Short Duration: Upon the visitor's arrival, the security guard will verify the visitor's identification and ensure the visitor is on the list. The guard will issue a temporary visitor's access badge. The visitors name will be printed on the badge as will the visitor's office and date of issuance. Unescorted visitor's badges will be authorized only until the close of the business day on which the badge was issued. Visitors will sign in on a log sheet prior to accepting the badge and sign out prior to relinquishing the badge upon departing the project. Badges will be considered a controlled item and should be safeguarded in a locked container when unneeded and after duty hours. If the visitor is unscheduled, the guard may obtain clearance from the USACE POC sponsoring the visit or their delegate. Once the clearance has been received in written form (usually an email request listing the visitor's name, position or title, their office, purpose and date of visit; however, the USACE POC may sign as verification next to the entry for their visitor in the visitor log), a badge may be issued. Visitors will not be allowed access until the appropriate USACE POC is contacted and clearance is provided. Immediate family members may be issued unescorted visitors badges of a short duration. All visitors are required to wear their access badge in a visible location on the upper body within the confines of the Project perimeter except when doing so poses a safety risk.

5.4.1.7 Unescorted Visitors of an Extended Duration: Visitors who will be performing work of some kind for the district and have been issued a USACE access badge. The information will be received from the USACE POC sponsoring the visitor and it will contain the visitor's name, position or title, their office, purpose, and dates of visit. Badges will be accounted for by a separate ledger identifying all the badges issued, the date of issue and date of anticipated return. Visitors will print, then sign, their names next to the entry for the badge they will be issued. Upon return of the badge the guard will sign next to the entry as the receiver. All visitors are required to wear their access badge in a visible location on the upper body within the confines of the Project perimeter except when doing so poses a safety risk.

5.4.2 Physical Security

5.4.2.1 Patrols: CSGs will perform roving security patrols to ensure the integrity of physical security, and as a preventative measure against unlawful entry. The OPM or Project Security POC may set or adjust the patrol constraints, e.g.

frequency, boundaries, inspection points, times, etc. Guards should ensure that patrols are not performed at regular intervals; and that while the inspection points remain the same, the route of patrols should vary from time to time. A log of each patrol will be kept for 12 months. These records will be presented for review upon the request of the Contractor, the OPM, Project Security POC, COR, or District Security Office. During the roving patrols guards will be attentive to any breach of security (e.g. breaches of the fence line, access points unlocked, doors propped open, security system malfunctions, trespassers), damaged property, people requiring assistance (medical or personal), and any other incident which may otherwise be outside normal operating parameters.

5.4.2.2 Monitoring the Security Systems: McNary Lock and Dam contains a camera operated security system which the guards will routinely monitor.

This must be done in addition to the roving patrols. Guards should frequently monitor the system when not otherwise engaged in essential duties ensuring to be aware of the same situations as if on roving patrol.
