'NRCH330 RULES OF BEHAVIOR FOR AUTHORIZED COMPUTER USE In accordance with Appendix Ill , "Security of Federal Automated Information Resources," to Office of Management and Budget (0MB) Circular A-130, "Management of Federal Information Resources," NRC has established rules of behavior for individual users who access all IT computing resources maintained and operated by the NRC or on behalf of the NRC. In response to the direction from 0MB , NRC has issued the "Agency-wide Rules of Behavior for Authorized Computer Use" policy, hereafter referred to as the rules of behavior.

The rules of behavior for authorized computer use will be provided to NRC computer users, including contractor personnel, as part of the annual computer security awareness course.

The rules of behavior apply to all NRC employees, contractors, vendors, and agents (users) who have access to any system operated by the NRC or by a contractor or outside entity on behalf of the NRC. This policy does not apply to licensees. The next revision of Management Directive 12.5, "NRC Automated Information Security Program," will include this policy. The rules of behavior can be viewed at http://www.internal.nrc.gov/CSO/documents/ROB.pdf or use NRC's external Web-based ADAMS at http://wba.nrc.gov:8080/ves/ (Under Advanced Search , type ML082190730 in the Query box) .

The rules of behavior are effective immediately upon acknowledgement of them by the person who is informed of the requirements contained in those rules of behavior. All current contractor users are required to review and acknowledge the rules of behavior as part of the annual computer security awareness course completion. All new NRC contractor personnel will be required to acknowledge the rules of behavior within one week of commencing work under th is contract and then acknowledge as current users thereafter. The acknowledgement statement can be viewed at http://www.internal.nrc.gov/CSO/documents/ROB_Ack.pdf or use NRC's external Web-based ADAMS at http://wba.nrc.gov:8080/ves/ (Under Advanced Search , type ML082190730 in the Query box).

The NRC Computer Security Office will review and update the rules of behavior annually beginning in FY 2011 by December 31st of each year. Contractors shall ensure that their personnel to which this requirement applies acknowledge the rules of behavior before beginning contract performance and , if the period of performance for the contract lasts more than one year, annually thereafter. Training on the meaning and purpose of the rules of behavior can be provided for contractors upon written request to the NRG Contracting Officer's Representative (COR) .

The contractor shall flow down this clause into all subcontracts and other agreements that relate to performance of this contract/order if such subcontracts/agreements will authorize access to NRG electronic and information technology (EIT) as that term is defined in FAR 2.101.

NRCH430- DRUG FREE WORKPLACE TESTING: UNESCORTED ACCESS TO NUCLEAR FACILITIES, ACCESS TO CLASSIFIED INFORMATION OR SAFEGUARDS INFORMATION, OR PERFORMING IN SPECIALLY SENSITIVE POSITIONS {OCT 2014)

All contractor employees, subcontractor employees, applicants, and consultants proposed for performance or performing under this contract shall be subject to pre-assignment, random, reasonable suspicion , and post-accident drug testing applicable to: (1) individuals who

NRC-HQ-40-17-C-0008 Page31 of41 require unescorted access to nuclear power plants, (2) individuals who have access to classified or safeguards information, (3) individuals who are required to carry firearms in performing security services for the NRG, (4) individuals who are required to operate government vehicles or transport passengers for the NRG, (5) individuals who are required to operate hazardous equipment at NRG facilities , or (6) individuals who admit to recent illegal drug use or those who are found through other means to be using drugs illegally.

The NRC Drug Program Manager will schedule the drug testing for all contractor employees, subcontractor employees, applicants, and consultants who are subject to testing under this clause. The consequences of refusing to undergo drug testing or a refusal to cooperate in such testing, including not appearing at the scheduled appointment time, will result in the Agency 's refusal of the contractor employee to work under any NRC contract. Any NRG contractor employee found to be using , distributing or possessing illegal drugs, or any contractor employee who fails to receive a verified negative drug test result under this program while in a duty status will immediately be removed from working under the NRC contract. The contractor's employer will be notified of the denial or revocation of the individual's authorization to have access to information and ability to perform under the contract. The individual may not work on any NRC contract for a period of not less than one year from the date of the failed , positive drug test and will not be considered for reinstatement unless evidence of rehabilitation , as determined by the NRG "drug testing contractor's" Medical Review Officer, is provided.

This means that unless provided in a contract document or specifically authorized by the contracting officer, NRC technical personnel may not issue contract modifications , give formal contractual commitments, or otherwise bind, commit, or obligate the NRG contractually. Informal unauthorized commitments, which do not obligate the NRG and do not entitle the contractor to payment, may include:

(1) Encouraging a potential contractor to incur costs prior to receiving a contract;

N RC-HQ-40-17-C-0008 Page 32 of 41 (2) Requesting or requiring a contractor to make changes under a contract without formal contract modifications; (3) Encouraging a contractor to incur costs under a cost-reimbursable contract in excess of those costs contractually allowable; and (4) Committing the Government to a course of action with regard to a potential contract, contract change, claim, or dispute.

NRC Local Clauses incorporated bv Full Text NRCI020 COMPLIANCE WITH SECTION 508 OF THE REHABILITATION ACT OF 1973, AS AMENDED (SEP 2013)

In 1998, Congress amended the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 (29 U.S.C. §794d) as amended by the Workforce Investment Act of 1998 (P.L. 105 - 220) , August 7, 1998 to require Federal agencies to make their electronic and information technology (EIT) accessible to people with disabilities. Inaccessible technology interferes with an ability to obtain and use information quickly and easily. Section 508 was enacted to eliminate barriers in information technology, open new opportunities for people with disabilities, and encourage development of technologies that will help achieve these goals. The law applies to all Federal agencies when they develop, procure, maintain , or use electronic and information technology. Under Section 508 (29 U.S.C. §794d) , agencies must give disabled employees and members of the public access to information that is comparable to access available to others. Specifically, Section 508 of that Act requires that when Federal agencies develop, procure, maintain , or use EIT, Federal employees with disabilities have access to and use of information and data that is comparable to the access and use by Federal employees who are not individuals with disabilities, unless an undue burden would be imposed on the agency. (36 C.F.R. §1194 implements Section 508 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, as amended , and is viewable at:
