All work within the existing area shall be performed under established escort. The work area is an explosive storage environment. The Contractor will be given the maximum amount of safe distance that Air Force guidance requires. Action Start: Once the Contracting office has been notified, normal construction can begin. Access to the construction sites during this time will be through the Entry Control Point (ECP) and the procedures described below will be followed. Performance Period: Work shall be completed within 85 calendar days after receipt of award. Security Exercises and Convoys: When weapons convoys inter-area movements are formed in these areas, the Contractor will be prohibited from entering or leaving the affected areas. The Contractor, if inside the area already, may be required to relocate personnel from the convoy route which includes leaving the area within 15 minutes of notice.
