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.

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 in RAPIDGate 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.

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.

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).
