The Contractor is responsible for ensuring that each of its subcontractors fully complies with the following provisions, and shall flow down to subcontracts a clause to satisfy this contractual obligation. The Contractor is responsible for providing information required to obtain clearances, permits, passes, or security badges that are required for Contractor personnel or equipment access. This includes information required for police or background checks or investigations. The Contractor is responsible for ensuring such clearances, permits, passes, or security badges are promptly returned to the issuing activity upon termination of an employee, completion of a project, or termination of a contract or subcontract. All Contractor personnel performing work under this contract who require access to military installations shall obtain personal entry and vehicle passes from the Provost Marshall ™s Office (PMO) of each base. (For Camp Pendleton, this process currently includes the requirement that employees under a contract of one year or longer obtain a Business Pass, which requires completion of an application used to conduct background checks.) The Commanding Officer of each base has broad authority to remove or exclude any person from the military installation to protect personnel and property, to maintain good order and discipline, and to ensure the successful and uninterrupted performance of the Marine Corps mission. In the exercise of this authority, the Commanding Officer may refuse to grant personal entry passes or may bar Contractor employees, including employees who have been granted a personal entry pass. Refusal to grant an employee a personal entry pass or barment of an employee does not relieve the Contractor of the responsibility to continue performance under this contract. The Contractor ™s employees shall observe and comply with all base rules and regulations applicable to contract personnel, including those applicable to the safe operation of vehicles, and shall not be present in locations not required for the proper performance of this contract. Contractor personnel performing work under this contract shall be readily identifiable as an employee of the contractor through the use of uniforms with nametags. The contracting officer may approve alternate methods of ensuring contractor personnel are readily identifiable. Contractor personnel and equipment entering a military installation are subject to security checks. Contractor personnel shall follow any direction given by Military Police or other security or safety personnel. The Immigration Reform and Control Act of 1986 (IRCA), Public Law 99-603 (8 U.S.C. 1324a) requires employers verify the eligibility of individuals for employment to preclude the unlawful hiring, or recruiting or referring for a fee, of aliens who are not authorized to work in the United States. By signing this proposal/contract or by beginning work under this contract, the Offeror/Contractor certifies it has and will comply with IRCA, to include that it has verified the identity and employment eligibility of any individual employed who is or may be employed by the offeror and works under this contract. Application for Vendor/Contractor Business Passes: The procedures below are the requirements for Camp Pendleton. Other installations will have similar requirements for obtaining business passes. 1.The Contractor will obtain a letter of support from the customer that their contract ultimately supports. The letter of support will identify the Company Name, Contract Number, period of performance of the Contract, location of performance, the Drivers license and expiration date of each of the Contractor ™s employees, and the point of contact information for the customer that signed the request. The Contractor ™s personnel will take the letter of support to request either a business pass or RapidGate access to Support Services Police Administrative Services Branch (Bldg. 1523) for processing. 2.Business Passes issued by Support Services Division ™s Police Admin Services Branch to vendors or contractors are effective from the date of issuance, for a period of 60 days or the end of the contract whichever date occurs first. Personnel denied a business pass might appeal in writing to the Commanding Officer, Marine Corps Base, Camp Pendleton (Attn: CMD Inspector). Denial or revocation of a business pass may be made if the applicant: i.Is listed on the National Terrorist Watch List. ii.Is not a U.S. Citizen and is illegally present in the U.S. or whose U.S. citizenship, immigration status, or Social Security Number (SSN) cannot be verified. iii.Is subject to an outstanding criminal warrant. iv.Whose business pass application contains false or fraudulent information. v.Has obtained a felony conviction within the last 10 years. vi.Has obtained a total of three criminal misdemeanor convictions within the last 10 years. vii.Who is a registered sex offender regardless of the date of the criminal offense. viii.Has obtained a criminal misdemeanor or felony conviction for the following types of criminal offenses: 1.Offenses of a sexual nature; 2.Offenses of violence; 3.Offenses related to gang related activity, supremacist, or extremist behavior; i.e., hate crimes; 4.Crimes resulting from the possession, use, manufacturer, introduction, or distribution of any illegal drug listed in the Comprehensive Drug Abuse Prevention & Control Act of 1970, Schedules I through IV; ix.Offenses in which weapon instrumentality (e.g., firearm, knife, or other bladed instrument, club, brass knuckles) was used either as a means of violence, or threat of violence x.Whose military active duty was terminated by the receipt of a dishonorable discharge or bad conduct discharge. xi.Has been issued a debarment order and is currently banned from any military installation. xii.Who has exhibited characteristics, traits, or other indications that cause concern for the safety or welfare of personnel and/or residents aboard the base; or that causes concern for the physical security of the base. 3.Camp Pendleton has implemented a Contractor-managed security service, RAPIDGate. RAPIDGate is consistent with and complementary to Homeland Security Presidential Directive 12 (HSPD-12) and the Federal Information Processing Standard 201 (FIPS 201). Participation in RAPIDGate is optional, but contractor personnel who are not enrolled inRAPIDGate will be limited to gates which can safely accommodate traffic backups. Those gates are San Luis Rey, Las Pulgas, and San Onofre. All gates will be open to RAPIDGate registered Contractor personnel. Under the RAPIDGate program, Contractor personnel are vetted through a series of national and local record checks to determine whether they meet Camp Pendleton ™s criteria for access. The determination of whether to authorize a pass (badge) is made by the Government. The badges have Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) capability, and will be scanned upon entry onto the installation. Contractor personnel departure from the installation will be recorded by passive RFID receivers. Contactor personnel who have been screened and are determined to be eligible for access will be required to self register at kiosks located at the Main Gate, San Onofre Gate, as well as two additional kiosks located in Bldg. 1523 (PMO). The cost of the RAPIDGate program is $99.00 per year for the Contractor ™s firm, and $129.00 per Contractor employee for a one-year pass. The fee for lost or stolen passes is $30.00. Contractors who choose not to participate in the RAPIDGate program will be required to obtain a 30-day business pass from PMO. These personnel will be required to access Camp Pendleton at the following gates: San Luis Rey, Las Pulgas and San Onofre. Contractor personnel who are issued a Common Access Card (CAC) as a requirement for their positions (specifically access to the Navy Marine Corps Intranet), do not need to participate in RapidGate. 4.Application for Common Access Card (CAC): For personnel that require access to any government computers, the following procedures are required: a. The Contractor will be required to provide proof that a National Agency Check (NAC) or National Agency Check with Inquiries (NACI) has been submitted to the Office of Personnel Management (OPM) for each employee that has a requirement for a CAC Card. During the period between the time that the request is submitted and the time that the investigation is returned, the Government may grant temporary access to the Contractor ™s employee. Whether to grant temporary access is within the sole discretion of the Government, and a decision not to grant access shall not be grounds for a request for an equitable adjustment or other contract modification, and shall not constitute an excuse for Contractor failure to perform. Such temporary access will not exceed 90 days. b. Upon the return of the Investigation Schedule Notice and Certificate of Investigation from OPM, the Contractor shall provide a copy to the security manager that has overall responsibility for the customer supported by the Contractor ™s employees. c. "Report of Agency Adjudication Action" (form 79A) is sent when there are potential actionable issue (s) at the minor, moderate, or substantial level which may be disqualifying under suitability/security considerations. If the contractor receives an Agency Adjudication Action from OPM, the security manager shall be consulted before such adjudicative action is determined and returned to OPM. d. The Government will use the Adjudicative Guidelines (CNO ltr 5520 Ser 09N2/6U871220 of Sept 06) to guide determinations on whether access shall be granted. e. The Contractor shall be notified in writing if there is a disqualifying event that prevents the Contractor ™s employee from obtaining a CAC. If temporary access was granted it shall be immediately revoked. f. The information required to initiate a background investigation through OPM, as well as a listing of the forms that are required, is contained at the following website: http://www.opm.gov/extra/investigate/IS-15.pdf Base access requirements and procedures may change during the term of a contract. The contractor shall comply with all changes, and such compliance shall not be grounds for a request for an equitable adjustment or other contract modification. ADDITIONAL REQUIREMENTS (a)Photography is restricted on the Base. Clearance for photography will be obtained from appropriate Base personnel. When requested by the Base, all films must be turned over to the appropriate personnel for processing and security inspection. (b)All contractor personnel are to be familiar with the Camp Pendleton Fire Danger Rating System (FDRS). Personnel are required to observe all restrictions applicable under the FDRS pertaining to permit activities while on the Base. In particular, vehicles shall be parked only on bar solid /rock. Smoking is restricted to areas of bare soil. Fires of any nature are prohibited. (c)Do not pickup, remove, or disturb any ordnance (spent or live ammunition, brass, pyrotechnics, etc) found while on Camp Pendleton.

Koplewski Division of | Revision No.: 14 Director Wage Determinations| Date Of Revision: 06/19/2013 _______________________________________|____________________________________________ State: California Area: California Counties of Imperial, San Diego ____________________________________________________________________________________ **Fringe Benefits Required Follow the Occupational Listing** OCCUPATION CODE - TITLE FOOTNOTE RATE 23290 - Fire Alarm System Mechanic 23.50 23310 - Fire Extinguisher Repairer 19.48 ____________________________________________________________________________________ ALL OCCUPATIONS LISTED ABOVE RECEIVE THE FOLLOWING BENEFITS: HEALTH & WELFARE: $3.81 per hour or $152.40 per week or $660.40 per month VACATION: 2 weeks paid vacation after 1 year of service with a contractor or successor; 3 weeks after 5 years, and 4 weeks after 15 years. Length of service includes the whole span of continuous service with the present contractor or successor, wherever employed, and with the predecessor contractors in the performance of similar work at the same Federal facility. (Reg. 29 CFR 4.173) HOLIDAYS: A minimum of ten paid holidays per year, New Year's Day, Martin Luther King Jr's Birthday, Washington's Birthday, Memorial Day, Independence Day, Labor Day, Columbus Day, Veterans' Day, Thanksgiving Day, and Christmas Day. (A contractor may substitute for any of the named holidays another day off with pay in accordance with a plan communicated to the employees involved.) (See 29 CFR 4174) THE OCCUPATIONS WHICH HAVE NUMBERED FOOTNOTES IN PARENTHESES RECEIVE THE FOLLOWING: 1) COMPUTER EMPLOYEES: Under the SCA at section 8(b), this wage determination does not apply to any employee who individually qualifies as a bona fide executive, administrative, or professional employee as defined in 29 C.F.R. Part 541. Because most Computer System Analysts and Computer Programmers who are compensated at a rate not less than $27.63 (or on a salary or fee basis at a rate not less than $455 per week) an hour would likely qualify as exempt computer professionals, (29 C.F.R. 541. 400) wage rates may not be listed on this wage determination for all occupations within those job families. In addition, because this wage determination may not list a wage rate for some or all occupations within those job families if the survey data indicates that the prevailing wage rate for the occupation equals or exceeds $27.63 per hour conformances may be necessary for certain nonexempt employees. For example, if an individual employee is nonexempt but nevertheless performs duties within the scope of one of the Computer Systems Analyst or Computer Programmer occupations for which this wage determination does not specify an SCA wage rate, then the wage rate for that employee must be conformed in accordance with the conformance procedures described in the conformance note included on this wage determination. Additionally, because job titles vary widely and change quickly in the computer industry, job titles are not determinative of the application of the computer professional exemption. Therefore, the exemption applies only to computer employees who satisfy the compensation requirements and whose primary duty consists of: (1) The application of systems analysis techniques and procedures, including consulting with users, to determine hardware, software or system functional specifications; (2) The design, development, documentation, analysis, creation, testing or modification of computer systems or programs, including prototypes, based on and related to user or system design specifications; (3) The design, documentation, testing, creation or modification of computer programs related to machine operating systems; or (4) A combination of the aforementioned duties, the performance of which requires the same level of skills. (29 C.F.R. 541.400). 2) AIR TRAFFIC CONTROLLERS AND WEATHER OBSERVERS - NIGHT PAY & SUNDAY PAY: If you work at night as part of a regular tour of duty, you will earn a night differential and receive an additional 10% of basic pay for any hours worked between 6pm and 6am. If you are a full-time employed (40 hours a week) and Sunday is part of your regularly scheduled workweek, you are paid at your rate of basic pay plus a Sunday premium of 25% of your basic rate for each hour of Sunday work which is not overtime (i.e. occasional work on Sunday outside the normal tour of duty is considered overtime work). HAZARDOUS PAY DIFFERENTIAL: An 8 percent differential is applicable to employees employed in a position that represents a high degree of hazard when working with or in close proximity to ordinance, explosives, and incendiary materials. This includes work such as screening, blending, dying, mixing, and pressing of sensitive ordance, explosives, and pyrotechnic compositions such as lead azide, black powder and photoflash powder. All dry-house activities involving propellants or explosives. Demilitarization, modification, renovation, demolition, and maintenance operations on sensitive ordnance, explosives and incendiary materials. All operations involving regrading and cleaning of artillery ranges. A 4 percent differential is applicable to employees employed in a position that represents a low degree of hazard when working with, or in close proximity to ordance, (or employees possibly adjacent to) explosives and incendiary materials which involves potential injury such as laceration of hands, face, or arms of the employee engaged in the operation, irritation of the skin, minor burns and the like; minimal damage to immediate or adjacent work area or equipment being used. All operations involving, unloading, storage, and hauling of ordance, explosive, and incendiary ordnance material other than small arms ammunition. These differentials are only applicable to work that has been specifically designated by the agency for ordance, explosives, and incendiary material differential pay. ** UNIFORM ALLOWANCE ** If employees are required to wear uniforms in the performance of this contract (either by the terms of the Government contract, by the employer, by the state or local law, etc.), the cost of furnishing such uniforms and maintaining (by laundering or dry cleaning) such uniforms is an expense that may not be borne by an employee where such cost reduces the hourly rate below that required by the wage determination. The Department of Labor will accept payment in accordance with the following standards as compliance: The contractor or subcontractor is required to furnish all employees with an adequate number of uniforms without cost or to reimburse employees for the actual cost of the uniforms. In addition, where uniform cleaning and maintenance is made the responsibility of the employee, all contractors and subcontractors subject to this wage determination shall (in the absence of a bona fide collective bargaining agreement providing for a different amount, or the furnishing of contrary affirmative proof as to the actual cost), reimburse all employees for such cleaning and maintenance at a rate of $3.35 per week (or $.67 cents per day). However, in those instances where the uniforms furnished are made of "wash and wear" materials, may be routinely washed and dried with other personal garments, and do not require any special treatment such as dry cleaning, daily washing, or commercial laundering in order to meet the cleanliness or appearance standards set by the terms of the Government contract, by the contractor, by law, or by the nature of the work, there is no requirement that employees be reimbursed for uniform maintenance costs. The duties of employees under job titles listed are those described in the "Service Contract Act Directory of Occupations", Fifth Edition, April 2006, unless otherwise indicated. Copies of the Directory are available on the Internet. A links to the Directory may be found on the WHD home page at http://www.dol. gov/esa/whd/ or through the Wage Determinations On-Line (WDOL) Web site at http://wdol.gov/. REQUEST FOR AUTHORIZATION OF ADDITIONAL CLASSIFICATION AND WAGE RATE {Standard Form 1444 (SF 1444)} Conformance Process: The contracting officer shall require that any class of service employee which is not listed herein and which is to be employed under the contract (i.e., the work to be performed is not performed by any classification listed in the wage determination), be classified by the contractor so as to provide a reasonable relationship (i.e., appropriate level of skill comparison) between such unlisted classifications and the classifications listed in the wage determination. Such conformed classes of employees shall be paid the monetary wages and furnished the fringe benefits as are determined. Such conforming process shall be initiated by the contractor prior to the performance of contract work by such unlisted class(es) of employees. The conformed classification, wage rate, and/or fringe benefits shall be retroactive to the commencement date of the contract. {See Section 4.6 (C)(vi)} When multiple wage determinations are included in a contract, a separate SF 1444 should be prepared for each wage determination to which a class(es) is to be conformed. The process for preparing a conformance request is as follows: 1) When preparing the bid, the contractor identifies the need for a conformed occupation(s) and computes a proposed rate(s). 2) After contract award, the contractor prepares a written report listing in order proposed classification ti
