AVAILABLE ONLINE AT: INITIATED BY: www.directives.doe.gov Office of Security and Safety Performance Assurance Approved: 08-26-05 Review: 08-26-07 PROTECTIVE FORCE U.S. DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY Office of Security and Safety Performance Assurance DOE M 470.4-3 DOE M 470.4-3 1 08-26-05 PROTECTIVE FORCE 1. PURPOSE. This Manual establishes the requirements for the management and operation of the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) Protective Force (PF). This Manual also establishes the requirements for firearms operations and defines the firearms courses of fire. The 10 chapters and five appendices in Section C provide detailed requirements for qualification with various firearms. 2. OBJECTIVES. a. Effect the policy in DOE P 470.1, Integrated Safeguards and Security Management Policy (ISSM), by integrating protective force into DOE operations as determined by line management, and according to sound risk management practices. [DOE P 470.1, Integrated Safeguards and Security Management Policy (ISSM), is the Department’s philosophical approach to the management of the Safeguards & Security (S&S) Program. A principal objective of the ISSM Program is to integrate S&S into management and work practices at all levels, based on program line management’s risk management-based decisions, so that missions may be accomplished without security events, such as interruption, disruption or compromise. This approach includes individual responsibility and implementation of the security requirements found in this Manual.] b. Establish and maintain uniform requirements for PF personnel and firearms operations, to include the firearms qualification and re-qualification of Federal Officers, Federal Agents, Special Agents, and Security Police Officers by certified Federal and contractor firearms instructors. 3. PROGRAM INTEGRATION. The PF program must be integrated with other programs such as S&S program planning and management, physical protection, information security, personnel security, and nuclear material control and accountability. Additionally, the activities and requirements in the weapons surety, foreign visits and assignments, safety, emergency management, cyber security, intelligence and counterintelligence programs should also be considered in the implementation of this Manual. 4. CANCELLATIONS. The directives listed below are canceled. Cancellation of a directive does not by itself modify or otherwise affect any contractual obligation to comply with the directive. Cancelled directives that are incorporated by reference in a contract remain in effect until the contract is modified to delete the reference to the requirements in the canceled directives. The publication of this Manual incorporates previous memoranda and letters that were issued by the Office of Security or its predecessor organizations that established policy. a. DOE M 473.2-1A, Firearms, Qualification Courses Manual, dated 1-17-02 b. DOE M 473.2-2, Protective Force Program Manual, dated 6-30-00 2 DOE M 470.4-3 08-26-05 5. APPLICABILITY. a. Departmental Elements. Except for the exclusion in paragraph 5.c., this Manual applies to all Departmental elements listed on Attachment 1. This Manual automatically applies to Departmental elements created after it is issued. The Administrator of the National Nuclear Security Administration (NNSA) will assure that NNSA employees and contractors comply with their respective responsibilities under this Manual. b. Contractors.

Section 2

(1) The Contractor Requirements Document (CRD), Attachment 2, sets forth requirements of this Manual that apply to site/facility management contracts that include the CRD. (2) The CRD must be included in the site/facility management contracts that involve classified information or matter, or nuclear materials and contain DOE Acquisition Regulation (DEAR) clause 952.204-2, Security Requirements. (a) Departmental elements must notify contracting officers of affected site/facility management contracts to incorporate this directive into those contracts. (b) Once notified, contracting officers are responsible for incorporating this directive into the affected contracts via the Laws, Regulations, and DOE Directives clause of the contracts. (3) A violation of the provisions of this directive relating to the safeguarding or security of Restricted Data or other classified information may result in a civil penalty pursuant to subsection a. of section 234B, of the Atomic Energy Act of 1954 (42 U.S.C. 2282b.). The procedures for the assessment of civil penalties are set forth in Title 10, Code of Federal Regulations (CFR), Part 824, Procedural Rules for the Assessment of Civil Penalties for Classified Information Security Violations, (10 CFR part 824). (4) As stated in DEAR clause 970.5204-2, titled Laws, Regulations, and DOE Directives, regardless of the performer of the work, site/facility contractors with the CRD incorporated into their contracts are responsible for compliance with the CRD. Affected site/facility management contractors are responsible for flowing down the requirements of the CRD to subcontracts at any tier to the extent necessary to ensure compliance with the requirements. In doing so, contractors must not unnecessarily or imprudently flow down requirements to subcontracts. That is, contractors must ensure that both they and their subcontractors comply with the DOE M 470.4-3 3 08-26-05 requirements of this CRD and incur only costs that would be incurred by a prudent person in the conduct of competitive business. (5) This Manual does not automatically apply to other than site/facility management contracts. Application of any of the requirements in this Manual to other than site/facility management contracts will be communicated as follows. (a) Heads of Field Elements and Headquarters Departmental Elements. Review procurement requests for new non-site/facility management contracts that involve classified information or matter, or nuclear materials and contain DEAR clause 952.204-2, Security Requirements, and, if appropriate, ensure that the CRD of this Manual is included in the contract. (b) Contracting Officers. Assist originators of procurement requests who want to incorporate the requirements of the CRD of this Manual in new non-site/facility management contracts, as applicable. c. Exclusion. In accordance the responsibilities and authorities assigned by Executive Order 12344 and to ensure consistency throughout the joint Navy and DOE organization of the Naval Nuclear Propulsion Program, the Deputy Administrator for Naval Reactors will implement and oversee all requirements and practices pertaining to this Manual for activities under the Deputy Administrator’s cognizance. 6. DEVIATIONS. Deviations from the requirements contained in this Manual must be processed in accordance with DOE M 470.4-1, Safeguards and Security Program Planning and Management.

PLANS, POST AND GENERAL ORDERS, AND PROCEDURES. a. Development. Written plans, post orders (POs), general orders (GOs), and procedures covering protective force (PF) routine, emergency, and administrative duties; tactical deployment; and other operational requirements must be developed. Plans, POs, GOs, and procedures must be clear, concise, and current. (1) Plans. Required protection strategies; tactical response options, actions, and times; and other applicable response requirements must be addressed in response plans. Required PF plans include: (a) Security incident response plans (SIRPs) covering response requirements to security incidents; adversary intrusion of a facility/site; and defense against adversary use of weapons, explosives, and chemical/biological weapons (CBW), as described in the DOE O 470.3, Design Basis Threat (DBT) Policy). SIRPs must provide specific response direction and required actions to PF personnel for applicable containment, denial, recapture, recovery, and pursuit strategy requirements and to support interruption/neutralization operations before completion of adversary task times. When a site/facility vulnerability assessment (VA), performance test, and/or site safeguards and security plan (SSSP) dictates a recapture strategy and/or interdiction/neutralization operations requirements for which a mechanical tactical entry (TE) capability alone will not meet required response times, the site/facility must develop an explosive TE capability and requisite SIRP. (b) Facility evacuation response plans covering protection of security interests, employees, the public, and the environment during nuclear release incidents, adversary use of CBW, chemical/radiological/biological sabotage, and other site emergencies.

Section 10

(c) Security contingency response plans covering PF work stoppages, PF recall measures, and required response actions of local, State, and Federal law enforcement agencies (LEAs). Security contingency response plans covering PF work stoppages must contain the Federal and PF contractor responsibilities, planning considerations, training, management oversight, and other activities related to the establishment of a contingency PF. Section A DOE M 470.4-3 I-2 08-26-05 (d) Target folders containing interagency compatible site descriptions and response planning documentation; and facility-specific information (e.g., engineering descriptions of buildings, entry/exit locations, response and observation positions); types and quantities of special nuclear material (SNM), or other attractive targets and their locations and critical paths to assist the PF and LEAs in conducting interagency compatible tactical operations. Target folders must be developed by sites possessing Category I or II quantities of SNM and/or significant radiological sabotage concern(s) using the format approved by the Director, Office of Security (see Section A, Appendix A-2). (2) Post Orders and General Orders. PF responsibilities, assignments, and requirements must be addressed in POs and GOs. (a) POs must contain specific guidance for operational requirements at a designated PF post. POs must be developed and implemented for temporary posts. (b) GOs must contain guidance for PF personnel in the conduct of site-and facility-wide duties (e.g., visitor and access control, search requirements, escort procedures, communications, non-security contingency response requirements such as natural disasters, work stoppages). (3) Procedures. Administrative, training, and other non-response-related operational requirements must be addressed in procedures. b. Availability. Plans, POs, GOs, and procedures must be available to the PF for reference and guidance. Individual POs for designated fixed and mobile (vehicle) posts must be located at these posts. GOs and administrative procedures must be available in a central location for easy reference; posts located in remote areas must have GOs located at the post. Response plans must be located at central alarm stations (CASs), secondary alarm stations (SASs), and other tactical command locations to allow ready reference by PF personnel tasked with coordinating response actions. c. Review. The cognizant security authority must review plans, POs, GOs, and procedures for currency when response requirements, duties, or administrative requirements are changed, but at least annually (at least every 12 months). The annual or special review for adequacy and currency must be documented to show the name of the reviewer and the date the review was completed. Any revisions or changes made to plans, POs, GOs, or procedures as a result of the review must be highlighted or marked in such a manner to ensure PF personnel are aware of those revisions and changes. DOE M 470.4-3 Section A 08-26-05 I-3 d. Non-Department of Energy (DOE) Law Enforcement Agency Support. Plans requiring participation by local, State, and Federal LEAs in support of the site must be documented and coordinated by DOE line management. Any applicable LEA response support is detailed in an SSSP, however, a memorandum of understanding (MOU) documenting the anticipated level and priority of support from each LEA must be completed, reviewed, and updated annually (at least every 12 months).

Section 11

2. QUALIFICATION REQUIREMENTS. PF personnel must comply with Departmental medical, physical fitness, and firearms qualifications and training requirements. [10 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) 1046, Physical Protection of Security Interests] a. Access Authorization. (1) PF personnel must possess access authorizations commensurate with the highest level of classified information or matter to which they have or potentially have access. Access authorizations must be accomplished in accordance with DOE M 470.4-5, Personnel Security. (2) Security Police Officers (SPOs) and Special Agents (SAs) must possess L or Q access authorizations. (3) Federal Officers, Federal Agents, and SPOs with access to nuclear weapons, nuclear test devices, or complete nuclear assemblies; Category I and II quantities of SNM; must possess Q access authorizations. b. Medical, Physical Fitness, Firearms, and Training Standards. (1) Security Officers (SOs). SOs must meet the training, qualification, and medical requirements. [10 CFR 1046, Subpart B, Protective Force Personnel]. (2) Security Police Officers (SPOs). SPOs must meet the medical, physical fitness, firearms, and training and qualifications requirements. [10 CFR 1046, Subpart B, Protective Force Personnel]. Before initial assignment to independent duties, SPO candidates must be formally evaluated and certified in accordance with procedures based on site-specific requirements approved by DOE line management. (3) Federal Officers (FOs)/Federal Agents (FAs)/Special Agents (SAs). FOs/FAs/SAs must complete a formal training and qualification program before assignment to duties. The training program must be based on assigned functions. Firearms, physical fitness, and medical qualifications must meet DOE and/or Office of Personnel Management requirements for the position assignment. Section A DOE M 470.4-3 I-4 08-26-05 (4) Maintaining Physical Fitness Standards. PF personnel must maintain physical fitness standards. An FO/FA/SA or SPO may be required to demonstrate they meet physical fitness qualification standards during an inspection, survey, review, audit, or other situation directed by DOE line management. Failure to meet the physical fitness standard will be treated as if the individual failed the first attempt during annual qualification. In the event of a failure specific requirements must be followed. [10 CFR 1046, Subpart B, Protective Force Personnel]. c. Special Skills Qualifications. Site-specific conditions may justify requirements for PF personnel to possess qualifications for special skills (e.g., security helicopter operations, ascending and descending techniques, mechanical and explosive TE techniques, CBW countermeasures, hostage negotiation, precision rifleman/forward observer team (PRFOT), communications, exercise controllers/evaluators, or alarm station monitoring). Responsible managers must ensure that personnel assigned to these duties are trained, formally evaluated, and certified, if required, by an appropriate accrediting authority before performing those duties. Certifications required by specific job functions (e.g., a Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) license for pilots) must be kept current. The employing organization for each individual must maintain a record of qualification and/or certification. d. Firearms.

Section 12

(1) No person will be authorized to carry a firearm as a PF officer until DOE line management is assured that the individual is qualified in accordance with the firearms qualification standards established in Section C. When DOE firearms qualification courses do not exist or do not address site-specific deployment of issued firearms, site-specific supplemental qualification courses must be developed. These supplemental courses must be approved by the Associate Administrator for Defense Nuclear Security after coordination with the Office of Security or by the Director, Office of Security, as appropriate. (2) Every 6 months, each FO/FA/SA and SPO must meet the applicable firearms qualification standards. Requalification must occur no later than the sixth month from the previous qualification. The requalification may be accomplished at any time during the requalification month. If an FO/FA/SA or SPO does not requalify before (see 3., below) or during the requalification month, the individual’s authority to carry firearms and make arrests must be suspended until such time as requalification is completed. If requalification occurs before the requalification month, the next requalification must become due 6 months from the new month. (3) PF personnel must maintain firearms proficiency. An FO/FA/SA or SPO may be required to demonstrate the ability to meet qualification standards DOE M 470.4-3 Section A 08-26-05 I-5 during an inspection, survey, review, audit, or other situation directed by DOE line management. Failure to meet the performance standard will be treated as if the individual failed the first attempt during semi-annual qualification. Procedures in paragraph (4)(d), below must be followed in the event of a failure. (4) Each FO/FA/SA and SPO must qualify with each firearm that is reasonably expected to be used during duty assignment on the qualification course indicated in Section C and any applicable approved site-specific supplemental qualification course. (a) Qualifications must be accomplished with the same type of firearm, model and associated features (i.e., caliber, sight system), and ammunition (i.e., equivalent in trajectory and recoil) used while on duty. (b) Before any range activity, each FO/FA/SA and SPO must be given a briefing on the basic principles of firearms safety. However, a firearms safety briefing is not required for each qualification course using the same firearm after the initial safety presentation for that firearm. (c) FOs/FAs/SAs and SPOs must be allowed up to two initial attempts to qualify semi-annually (at least every 6 months). A Range Master or other person in charge of the range will declare to personnel on the firing line, “This is a qualifying run.” Once this statement is made, any firearms activity will constitute a qualification attempt. The FO/FA/SA or SPO must qualify during one of the two attempts. (d) Failure to qualify, as set out in paragraph (4)(c), above, will result in suspension of the authority to carry firearms and make arrests. Upon failure, a FO/FA/SA or SPO will then enter a standardized, remedial firearms training program based on training instruction developed by the DOE National Training Center (NTC) and approved by the Director, Office of Security. The remedial firearms training program will include basic firearm manipulation skills, firearms safety, and necessary individual training to afford a reasonable opportunity to meet the firearms qualification standards.

Section 13

1 Any FO/FA/SA or SPO, who completes the remedial training and fails to qualify after the two subsequent attempts, will lose FO/FA/SA or SPO status and the authority to carry firearms and make arrests. The total number of initial requalification and remedial requalification attempts may not exceed four. Section A DOE M 470.4-3 I-6 08-26-05 2 Any person who requires remedial training on three consecutive semi-annual qualification periods, with the same firearm on the same qualification course, will lose FO/FA/SA or SPO status. 3 Loss of FO/FA/SA or SPO status for either failure to meet qualification standards or excessive remedial requirements will result in the individual’s removal from the FO/FA/SA or SPO position. Site-specific procedures must be developed and approved by DOE line management to allow a single additional qualification attempt within 1 year of removal from status if the former FO/SA or SPO presents evidence of outside training that indicates the required skill level. 4 Site-specific procedures must be developed and approved by the Assistant Deputy Administrator for Secure Transportation to allow a single additional qualification attempt within 1 year of removal from status if the former FA presents evidence of outside training that indicates enhanced skill level. Upon qualification in this final attempt, reinstatement may be effected where site-specific employment conditions, position availability, and procedures permit. Any subsequent application for rehire will require training as provided to any other initial applicant for an FO/FA/SA or SPO position. 5 The PF Range Master will designate, in writing, the firearms instructor(s) who are authorized to certify the validity of the scores achieved during qualification attempts. (5) PF organizations not firing individually-issued firearms during qualification must have written procedures authorizing the specific model and associated features of all firearms. These procedures must be approved by DOE line management. (6) Ammunition listed in the DOE Standardized Ammunition Contract Guide must be used for training, duty, and qualification. The purpose of the standardized ammunition contract is to provide cost-effective, bulk procurement of ammunition for DOE sites. Should a site-specific PF protection mission requirement require the use of a specialized ammunition not listed in the current approved ammunition list, the site may procure and field the ammunition upon approval of DOE line management. e. Authority to Carry Firearms. DOE M 470.4-3 Section A 08-26-05 I-7 (1) The employing organization must maintain written documentation indicating each individual who is authorized to carry firearms and make arrests without warrant while performing official duties. (2) Firearms instructors not currently assigned FO/FA/SA or SPO duties may carry firearms when performing their instructional duties if authorized by DOE line management. These instructors must pass the firearms qualification courses for assigned firearms and for firearms that are the subject of instruction. f. Pooling. (1) Security Police Officers (SPO)-I/-II. (a) Any former SPO-I/-II who has been out of active SPO status for less than 6 months may return to active status after completing limited refresher training for the assigned SPO-level duties. The scope of limited refresher training will be determined by evaluation of the SPOs skills by a PF instructor and approved by the cognizant PF training manager. The scope of limited refresher training must include the use of deadly force, intermediate force weapons, a review of basic firearms training, and site-specific assigned duties.

Section 14

(b) Any former SPO-I/-II who has been out of active SPO status for more than 6 months but less than 12 months may return to active status after completing prescribed refresher training for the assigned SPO-level duties. The prescribed refresher training will be designed by a PF instructor and approved by the cognizant PF training manager. The scope of prescribed refresher training must include an overall review of the SPO-I/-II training requirements in Section A, Chapter IV and site-specific duties. (c) Any former SPO-I/-II who has been out of active SPO status for more than 12 months may return to active status only after again completing the entire DOE basic SPO training course and site-specific requirements as noted in Section A, Chapter IV. (d) After completing the refresher/prescribed training program, but before re-assignment to SPO-I/-II duties, the SPO must successfully complete all required medical, physical fitness, and firearms (for assigned firearms) qualification requirements. (2) SPO-III. (a) Any former SPO-III who has been out of active SPO-III status for less than 6 months may return to active status after completing Section A DOE M 470.4-3 I-8 08-26-05 limited refresher training for assigned SPO-III duties. The scope of limited refresher training will be determined by evaluation of the SPO-III’s skills by a SPO-III instructor and approved by the cognizant Special Response Team (SRT) Commander. The scope of limited refresher training must include the use of deadly force, a review of basic firearms training for assigned firearms, and site-specific assigned duties. (b) Any former SPO-III who has been out of active SPO-III status for more than 6 months but less than 12 months may return to active status after completing prescribed refresher training for assigned SPO-III duties. The prescribed refresher training will be designed by an SRT instructor and approved by the cognizant SRT commander. The scope of prescribed refresher training must include an overall review of the SPO-III training requirements in Section A, Chapter IV and site-specific assigned duties.

Section 37

DOE M 470.4-3 Section A 08-26-05 VII-1 CHAPTER VII - PERFORMANCE TESTING 1. PERFORMANCE TESTS (PTs). PTs must be used to realistically evaluate and verify the effectiveness of protective force (PF) programs, identify needed training and provide training for personnel, identify areas requiring system improvements, validate implemented improvements, and motivate personnel. Such tests must adhere to the requirements found in DOE M 470.4-1, Safeguards and Security Program Planning and Management, and in this Chapter. All major PF functions must be tested. The following are the major types of PF PTs. a. Limited Scope Performance Test (LSPTs). LSPTs may be either scheduled or unannounced. The tests must be used to determine the level of PF skill or capability or to verify different elements of the PF program. LSPTs must be conducted to realistically test any operation or procedure, verify the performance of a policy requirement, or verify possession of a requisite knowledge or skill to perform a specific task that falls within the scope of PF responsibility. The tests may involve large numbers of PF personnel working together, or they may involve an individual or a small team. When individuals or small teams are tested, repetitions of the test may be conducted with each individual or team. Examples of these tests include individual and team tactical movement, defensive and offensive positioning, arrest and control techniques, building clearing, handling civil disturbances, containment operations, command and control activities, implementation of protection strategies, or any individual components of these activities. Any element of PF responsibility, as determined by site procedures and job analysis, may be tested. LSPTs may involve the use of dedicated engagement simulation systems (ESS) (multiple integrated laser engagement system [MILES]), dye-marking cartridge [DMC], blank-fire, or inert systems, and such use must meet the operational and safety requirements involving the conduct of Force on Force (FoF) exercises in paragraph 1.c., below, where applicable. b. Alarm Response and Assessment Performance Test (ARAPT). An ARAPT is conducted with no prior notice to evaluate PF response to a specific location under alarm protection (i.e., a building, vault/vault-type room, or other area that has a site-specific security interest identified in the site security plan [SSP] or Site Safeguards and Security Plan [SSSP]). ARAPT scenarios must be based on simulated adversary actions consistent with the DOE Design Basis Threat (DBT) and site-specific Vulnerability Assessment (VA) results. The purpose of these tests is to evaluate PF readiness and response to alarm conditions. These tests must consider all aspects of response including communications, personal protective measures, equipment availability and serviceability, and any PF and facility coordination activities that may be necessary to mitigate a security incident. ARAPTs must be coordinated with facility representatives and trusted agents (TAs) to ensure that safety requirements are fulfilled, security is not compromised, and operational disruption is minimized. When an ARAPT is Section A DOE M 470.4-3 VII-2 08-26-05 initiated, responding PF personnel must be advised of the test. Handguns must be holstered, and auxiliary weapons must not have a round in the chamber.

Section 38

c. FoF. A FoF exercise is a major test of the overall effectiveness of protection elements involved in response to the DBT and site-specific threats and is used also to validate site-specific protection strategies. Annual (at least every 12 months) FoF exercises must be held at all facilities meeting the requirements for an armed PF. Scenarios must include the characteristics of the various adversary weapons, equipment, number of adversary personnel, and methodologies as identified in the DBT. Scenario content must be controlled on a strict need-to- know basis to foster realistic exercise activities and evaluation. Exercises must be planned, announced in advance to all participating parties, and conducted during specified time periods. Personnel must be designated and briefed in advance to act as adversaries. All weapons used by exercise participants must be dedicated ESS weapons. For this reason, if an exercise involves an operating facility as opposed to a test area, a PF “shadow force” must be deployed for protection of the safeguards and security (S&S) interests. Interface procedures, including rules of conduct for all participants, controller actions, exercise boundaries, and off-limit areas must be developed and documented. Procedures for communication between the simulated and shadow forces must be developed to ensure no compromise of S&S during the exercise. All exercise participants, controllers, and the shadow force must be briefed on the interface and communication procedures. d. Command Post Exercise (CPX). A CPX is conducted to observe and evaluate a crisis management team’s overall handling of simulated safeguards and/or security or a natural disaster incident. A CPX may involve a local Emergency Operations Center (EOC) or multiple centers, including the DOE HQ EOC. CPXs may be either announced or unannounced and may vary in scope and time, as dictated by the purpose of the exercise. A security-related CPX must be based on the DBT and the site-specific threat. The CPX must be used to evaluate both tactical and technical assessments and decisions. Lines of authority, the interrelationship of various organizational components in crisis mitigation, and the timeliness of reporting and decision making must be considered in the overall evaluation. Facility and equipment availability must also be evaluated. e. Command Field Exercise (CFX). A CFX is an extension of a CPX and is conducted to test the interaction among various support organizations, site management, and the PF to a simulated incident. Procedures, tactical intelligence, communications, logistics, and the interfaces between Federal and contractor support systems are the focus of a CFX. Such exercises must be planned and announced in advance to all participating personnel. They may be combined with FoF exercises. f. Joint Training Exercise (JTX). When a VA or performance test indicates a need for outside agency support for the successful mitigation of a security incident, and such support is properly documented in the SSSP, the support expected from DOE M 470.4-3 Section A 08-26-05 VII-3 outside agencies must be covered by a formal MOU. JTXs must be conducted annually (at least every 12 months) and consist of an FoF exercise with these agencies to determine the agencies’ abilities and capabilities to respond to site threats, as documented in the SSSP and agreed to in the MOU. Annual exercises with outside agencies must include scenarios involving required site/facility protection strategies, including recapture, recovery, and pursuit, as applicable. The frequency of testing outside resources beyond the annual FoF exercise requirement must be based on the degree of support anticipated and approved by the DOE cognizant security authority.

Section 39

SAFETY. PTs must be conducted with the highest regard for the safety and health of personnel, protection of the environment, and protection of Government property. Specific safety considerations and requirements for conducting PTs are found in Section B, Chapter III. Site-specific procedures addressing the conduct of PTs, the use of ESS, and safety considerations must be prepared by PF management, submitted to the DOE cognizant security authority for review and approval, and incorporated into the site performance assurance program (see DOE M 470.4-1). 4. COMMAND AND CONTROL. a. Command and Control System. A system of command and control must ensure that ESS safety and other requirements of this Manual are met and maintain an environment free of the recognized risks associated with conducting certain PTs and training activities. The command and control system must ensure that Rules of Engagement (ROE) are followed, specific hazards and safety concerns, as identified in a risk assessment, are appropriately addressed, and exercise continuity is maintained. The command and control system is dependent on a contingent of personnel selected and specifically trained to control ESS PTs. b. Command and Control Responsibilities. The controller staff must be organized in a manner that facilitates the control of all affected locations and the control and coordination of all events to be initiated during the exercise. Individual controllers may have several duties assigned depending on where they are and what activities are occurring in their areas of responsibility. Their first and foremost responsibility is ensuring safety during exercise activities. This includes ensuring all participants adhere to the safety procedures and ROE. Event controllers at a particular exercise location are responsible for ensuring that prompt action is taken in accordance with established safety procedures to prevent accidents or unsafe conditions. Controllers are responsible for enforcing or implementing the following requirements during exercises. DOE M 470.4-3 Section A 08-26-05 VII-9 (1) Conducting safety checks and inspections of all personnel under their control for live rounds or other prohibited ammunition in DMC/Paint Ball (DMC/PB) or MILES PTs/exercises. No DMC/PB rounds allowed in MILES exercises unless using approved hybrid ESS weapons. Safety checks and inspections should also be conducted for other prohibited articles and for general safety. The results of these checks and inspections must be reported to the Senior Controller prior to the initiation of the PT. (2) Ensuring no live firearms or ammunition of any type is allowed within the ESS PT area, except those under the direct supervision of the Shadow Force Controller. (3) Ensuring PT participants and observers wear and use appropriate safety equipment. (4) Ensuring that personnel under their control comply with the PT plan to include the ROE and the safety regulations.

In addition, the Safety Controller: (a) assists the Senior Controller in the development and conduct of pre-PT controller training; (b) ensures that adequate safety walk downs are conducted to determine site suitability prior to the PT; (c) ensures that identified controllers are required to go on each safety walk down; (d) verifies that all required personnel are present for each safety walk down; (e) conducts a safety walk down of the PT area with the Exercise Director, Senior Controller, Event Controllers, Shadow Force Controller, and other selected controllers (as appropriate) prior to the exercise; and (f) coordinates with emergency management personnel to ensure emergency medical and fire protection services will be present or on call for the duration of the PT. (4) ESS Controller. In PTs involving the use of ESS equipment, the ESS Controller is responsible for: (a) issuing and accounting for all ESS firearms, weapons, and support equipment; (b) inspecting all ESS ammunition to be utilized prior to issue; (c) testing the ESS equipment for operability in conjunction with the firearm prior to PT commencement; and (d) collecting all ESS firearms and ammunition, and pyrotechnics at the conclusion of the PT. (5) Shadow Force Controller. A Shadow Force Controller with the experience necessary to ensure that the Shadow Force responds as required to a real security incident that may occur during a PT, is a critical participant. The Shadow Force Controller is responsible for ensuring: (a) voice communications are established and maintained with the Senior Controller throughout the course of the PT; Section A DOE M 470.4-3 VII-12 08-26-05 (b) all live firearms are maintained under his/her supervision and Shadow Force personnel do not come in contact with PT participants with ESS equipment; and (c) that the Shadow Force knows the PT area and emergency response procedures. The Shadow Force must remain under direct supervision and control during the PT, and after coordination with the Senior Controller, will be released in the event of an actual alarm or other security incident, in accordance with the approved PT plan. (6) Opposition Force (OPFOR) Controller. The OPFOR Controller must possess sufficient tactical expertise, knowledge, and physical ability to ensure that his/her presence does not interfere with, or hamper the actions of, the OPFOR in completing planned scenario actions. The OPFOR Controller is responsible for ensuring: (a) voice communications are established and maintained with the Senior Controller throughout the course of the PT; and (b) the OPFOR adheres to the ROE and planned scenario(s) actions. (7) Event Controllers. Event Controllers report to the Senior Controller and are responsible for executing control over specific categories of PT activity, including one or more events.

Event Controllers must ensure that all PT participants under their control: (a) are aware of procedures for halting a PT for safety reasons or for an actual emergency; (b) are not in possession of any live firearms or ammunition;

Section 44

(c) as applicable, have been provided with instruction on the hazards of Light Anti-Tank Weapon (LAW) simulators and any personnel using a LAW simulator have received comprehensive instruction on its usage prior to PT initiation; (d) have operable communications equipment; (e) are fully trained and qualified if assigned responsibilities to deploy hand-thrown pyrotechnics, flash-sound diversionary devices, and/or chemical agents; and (f) are instructed that full-charge flash-sound diversionary devices must not be deployed into occupied areas or rooms and that the DOE M 470.4-3 Section A 08-26-05 VII-13 minimum distance they may be deployed near personnel in open areas must be consistent with the specific pyrotechnic technical data sheet or Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS), in no case less than 50 feet. Sub-charge flash-sound diversionary devices may be deployed into occupied areas or rooms with the approval of the appropriate safety organization. (8) Evaluators. Evaluators are PT observers with responsibility to record the PT progress, the actions of participants, and the results of actions. Evaluator observations are used to determine exercise results. Controllers may also be tasked to conduct evaluation duties. Evaluators are responsible to stop PT activities for safety reasons. (9) TAs. In preparing for and conducting a PT, it may be necessary to provide sensitive information to selected non-participants and participants regarding the occurrence and/or timing of events to accomplish necessary coordination for realistic testing. Such individuals may be designated as a TA. The term is not normally applied to controllers, who may also possess the sensitive information (e.g., PT timing, planned events). (a) Role. The TA serves as a liaison between a simulated OPFOR and the PF being evaluated. PT planners must determine the number of Trusted Agents necessary. (b) Responsibilities. The TA works with the OPFOR commander to develop the PT scenario(s). The Trusted Agent identifies potential hazards in the PT area and works with the Exercise Director to establish recommended controls that minimize the likelihood of injuries/illnesses among PT participants. To successfully fulfill the role of TA, the individual must divulge as little information about the PT scenario as possible while ensuring that appropriate measures are taken to ensure the PT is conducted safely. (c) Selection Criteria. Individuals selected to serve as TAs must: 1 have sufficient understanding of the PF’s security posture, response plans, and capabilities to predict how the PF is likely to respond; 2 be familiar with the DBT used in VAs and the SSP/SSSP to assist the OPFOR in developing realistic scenarios; 3 be familiar with the targeted facility to understand the safety implications of OPFOR activities; Section A DOE M 470.4-3 VII-14 08-26-05 4 be capable of recognizing potential radiological, chemical, biological, explosive, occupational, and other hazards in the PT area; 5 either have the safety and health skills to establish appropriate controls or be familiar with the evaluated site’s organizational structure to obtain the necessary technical support (e.g., from the facility manager, safety professional, industrial hygienist, health physicist, et al.); and 6 have the management support necessary to resolve issues that may cut across organizational lines of authority and responsibility.

Section 45

d. Controller and Evaluator Training. The command and control system depends on a contingent of personnel selected and specifically trained to control ESS PTs. In addition to being trained to oversee exercises, controllers must receive training commensurate with the scope, complexity, and special nature of the activity. Based on the nature and complexity of the PT, specific controllers may be required for the Shadow Force, ESS equipment issue and accountability, occupational safety and health, and special or high risk activities (e.g., LAWs, explosive breaching, pyrotechnics, rappelling, etc.). Evaluators must receive controller training in order to perform evaluation duties. (1) Formal Training. All personnel assigned controller or evaluator duties must receive formal documented training for the safe conduct of a PT. The controller and evaluator training program must be approved by the DOE cognizant security authority and must include the following topics. (a) Controllers and Evaluators. 1 Purpose. 2 Responsibilities. 3 Duties. (b) General Knowledge Requirements. 1 ESS equipment/pyrotechnics. 2 ESS weapons versus comparable live-fire weapons capabilities. 3 Safety. a Firearms. b Vehicle use.

(k) PT emergency procedures; (l) guidelines for information control and established policies and procedures for the protection of PT related classified information, and unclassified controlled information; (m) methodology for identifying controllers/evaluators and donning and wearing of any apparel to be used for identification purposes, as applicable; and (n) directions to, and scheduled time(s) for, controller/evaluator meetings. 5. COORDINATION. When a CPX or CFX involves a demonstration of site-level emergency response capabilities, the development and conduct of the exercise must be coordinated with the appropriate site-level emergency management organizations. 6. TESTING FREQUENCY. Performance testing must be conducted as stated in Table VII-1, Testing Frequency. NOTE: Annual requirements for FoF, CPX, CFX, and JTX exercises may be combined when determined appropriate in SSSPs. Requirements for ARAPTs may be satisfied through combined testing of multiple alarms in the same or proximate location(s) and required monthly PF shift and SPO-III shift training exercises. DOE M 470.4-3 Section A 08-26-05 VII-17 (and VII-18) TABLE VII-1. Testing Frequency. Type of Performance Test Minimum Performance Test Frequency LSPT As required ARAPT One performance test per quarter for each alarmed location. FoF One performance test per year for each facility for all sites (additional requirements for Category I facilities are contained in DOE M 470.4-1, Part 1, Section F, 2.d.). CPX One performance test per year for each site. CFX One performance test per year for each site. JTX As required per SSSP, one performance test per year for each site, as applicable (see Chapter IV, paragraph 13 and 1.f., of this Chapter). DOE M 470.4-3 Section A 08-26-05 VIII-1 (and VIII-2) CHAPTER VIII - EXECUTIVE PROTECTION PROGRAM 1. PURPOSE. The Department of Energy (DOE) Executive Protection Program (EPP) is designed to prevent the kidnapping, intentional or unintentional harm/injury to, or harassment of the Secretary of Energy and, when designated by the Secretary, the Deputy Secretary of Energy. 2. SCOPE. Measures, including the use of armed protective force (PF) personnel, may be provided for the protection of the Secretary and/or Deputy Secretary within or outside the United States. The Secretary must determine the extent and nature of any protection measures to be performed. Executive protection operations and services will not be provided to the Secretary and/or Deputy Secretary without the knowledge and specific approval of the Secretary. 3. REQUIREMENTS. a. The Office of Security will provide an orientation briefing to each newly appointed Secretary of Energy covering the essential elements of the Department’s EPP. b. The Director, Office of Special Operations (OSO), Office of Security, must forward recommendations for protection measures to the Secretary, or to the Secretary's designated representative, for approval. c. Executive protection operations and services must be conducted by Special Agents or other commissioned law enforcement officers approved by the Director, OSO, and trained for this activity. d. Only DOE personnel who have been deputized as U.S. Marshals by the U.S. Marshals Service are authorized to carry firearms in support of an executive protection operation within the United States and its possessions.

Section 47

e. Approval for selected executive protection personnel to bear arms in a foreign country must be obtained from the foreign government by the Special Agent-in-Charge, EPP through the appropriate Department of State Regional Security Officer. DOE M 470.4-3 Section A, Appendix A-1 08-26-05 A1-1 APPENDIX A-1 - GUIDELINES FOR FRESH PURSUIT 1. PURPOSE. The purpose of these guidelines, which have been approved by the U.S. Attorney General, is to set forth the procedures to be followed by Department of Energy (DOE) Federal and contractor protective force (PF) personnel, when pursuing suspected criminals across jurisdictional lines. 2. POLICY. It is DOE policy to prevent the escape and effect the arrest of fleeing suspected criminals in a safe and expeditious manner. The following procedures are intended to provide protective personnel with flexibility when in fresh pursuit of a fleeing suspected criminal. Each site must prepare site-specific guidelines that take into account the geography, equipment, and functions of the facility/site and that address the procedures that will be used to provide emergency notification to jurisdictions that may be entered in a fresh pursuit situation. The DOE cognizant security authority must submit the guidelines through the cognizant Departmental element to the Director, Office of Security, for approval. 3. DEFINITIONS. The following definitions apply to this Appendix. a. Felony. Any offense enumerated in Title 10 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR), section 1047.4(a)(1)(i), as well as any offense constituting a felony under the laws of the jurisdiction in which the facility is located and with respect to which a PF would have arrest authority under 10 CFR 1047.4(d) and (e). b. Fresh Pursuit. Pursuit (with or without a warrant) for the purpose of preventing the escape or effecting the arrest of any person who commits a misdemeanor or felony or is suspected of having committed a misdemeanor or felony. Fresh pursuit implies pursuit without unreasonable delay but need not be immediate pursuit. (Although fresh pursuit implies pursuit without unreasonable delay, for the purpose of preventing the escape or effecting the arrest of fleeing suspected criminals who are in unauthorized control or possession of nuclear weapons, weapons components, and/or special nuclear material [SNM], such pursuit must be effected immediately). c. In the Presence. The criminal act must have taken place in the physical presence of (under the observation of) the PF officer. A PF officer is authorized to make an arrest for any misdemeanor listed in 10 CFR 1047.4(a)(1)(ii) if the offense is committed in the presence of the PF officer. d. Jurisdictional Lines. For the purposes of these guidelines, these must include, but are not be limited to, the property lines of a DOE facility/site. e. Misdemeanor. Any offense enumerated in 10 CFR 1047.4(a)(1)(ii), as well as any offense constituting a misdemeanor under the laws of the jurisdiction in which the facility is located and with respect to which a PF officer would have arrest authority under 10 CFR 1047.4(d) and (e). Section A, Appendix A-1 DOE M 470.4-3 A1-2 08-26-05 f. PF Officer. As defined in 10 CFR 1047.3(g), any person authorized by DOE authority to carry firearms under section 161.k. of the Atomic Energy Act.

Section 48

g. Reasonable Grounds to Believe. A PF officer is authorized to make an arrest for any felony listed in 10 CFR 1047.4(a)(1)(i) if the offense is committed in the presence of the PF officer or if the PF officer has reasonable grounds to believe (e.g., information from another PF or law enforcement officer, communications from a PF dispatcher or central alarm station operator) that a suspect had committed or was committing a felony. 4. AUTHORIZED PURSUIT ACROSS JURISDICTIONAL LINES. a. Misdemeanors. A PF officer may engage in the fresh pursuit of a suspected misdemeanant across jurisdictional lines only if the alleged misdemeanor was committed, or is being committed, in his or her presence. If the alleged misdemeanor was not committed in the presence of a PF officer, PF officers must not pursue the suspected misdemeanant across jurisdictional lines. Instead, the PF officers must attempt to obtain a description of the suspected misdemeanant, as well as a description and license tag number of any vehicle being used by the suspected misdemeanant, and must convey this information (in accordance with the specific notification procedures issued by DOE line management) to the State and other local law enforcement authorities for the jurisdiction into which the suspected misdemeanant has fled. b. Felonies. PF officers may engage in the fresh pursuit of a suspected felon across jurisdictional lines if: (1) the alleged felony is being committed, or was committed, in the presence of a PF officer; and (2) any PF officer has reasonable grounds to believe that the person pursued is committing, or has committed, the alleged felony. 5. FRESH PURSUIT PROCEDURES. a. Responsibility. Responsibility for decisions respecting fresh pursuit must follow the PF command structure. In making fresh pursuit decisions, PF officers must consider applicable Federal and State laws; Departmental directives, guidelines, and regulations; and PF plans, Post Orders, General Orders, guidelines, and training. b. Safety Considerations. (1) Safety is a primary consideration when engaged in fresh pursuit of a suspected criminal. In determining whether to pursue, as well as the method and means of pursuit, a PF officer will weigh the seriousness of the alleged offense and the necessity for immediate apprehension against DOE M 470.4-3 Section A, Appendix A-1 08-26-05 A1-3 the risk of injury to himself/herself, other PF officers, and the public. If at any time during the pursuit the risk of injury to pursuing PF officers or the public surpasses the necessity for immediate apprehension, the pursuit must be terminated. (2) PF officers will use the minimum force necessary under the circumstances to apprehend a suspected criminal. (3) Regulations at 10 CFR 1047.6, 1047.7, 1049.6, and 1049.7 address the applicability of physical and/or deadly force in a fresh pursuit situation, regardless of whether jurisdictional lines have been crossed. Such use may include, as appropriate, firing at or from a moving vehicle, aircraft, or water craft; the ramming and disabling of pursued vehicles by precision immobilization techniques (PIT); and the use of tire deflating devices. (4) If hostages are present in a pursuit situation in which recovery of SNM is involved, the safety and welfare of hostages must be considered; however, due to the ramifications of unauthorized use of SNM to the national security, the public, and the environment, the hostages’ presence must not deter or impact immediate pursuit and recovery of the SNM.

Section 49

c. Vehicular Pursuit. (1) Vehicles used in fresh pursuit must be operated in as safe a manner as is practicable. (2) To the extent practicable, vehicles used must be “marked” and equipped with visual and audible emergency equipment. (3) Vehicles occupied by non-PF personnel must not be used in fresh pursuit situations unless the situation mandates an immediate pursuit and the extreme circumstances prohibit the occupant’s disembarkation. (4) The number of pursuing vehicles that cross a jurisdictional line must be limited to that necessary to provide sufficient personnel to deal with the situation. Under no circumstance will the number of pursuing PF officers be such that the facility is left without sufficient security protection. (5) There are inherent dangers associated with the use of roadblocks; thus, unless exigent circumstances mandate immediate apprehension of the suspected criminal, PF officers generally must not attempt roadblocks without the authorization of the appropriate law enforcement officials of the jurisdiction entered and must not use roadblocks to apprehend suspected misdemeanants. Under no circumstances will a roadblock be used without the concurrence of the supervisor of the pursuing PF officers. Section A, Appendix A-1 DOE M 470.4-3 A1-4 08-26-05 (6) There are inherent dangers associated with the use of ramming/PIT and tire deflating devices; thus, unless exigent circumstances mandate immediate disabling of the suspect vehicle (i.e., unauthorized control of SNM, possession of explosives), PF officers generally must not attempt ramming/PIT or use tire deflation devices without the authorization of a PF supervisor. However, such authorization is not required when requesting such authorization may affect the timely termination of the pursuit. Ramming/PIT and tire deflation devices must not be used to apprehend suspected misdemeanants. Specific guidelines regarding the use of ramming/PIT and tire deflation devices in fresh pursuit situations must be included in the site-specific guidelines submitted to the Director, Office of Security, for approval. d. Aerial Assistance. Where DOE has aerial capability (e.g., helicopters, fixed-wing aircraft), specific guidelines regarding the use of aircraft in fresh pursuit situations, including pursuit, observation, reporting, and deployment of response forces, must be coordinated with appropriate State and other local officials. This information must be included in the site-specific guidelines submitted to the Director, Office of Security, for approval. e. Water Craft Assistance. Where DOE has waterborne capability, specific guidelines regarding the use of water craft in fresh pursuit situations, including pursuit, observation, reporting, and deployment of response forces, must be coordinated with appropriate State and other local officials. This information must be included in the site-specific guidelines submitted to the Director, Office of Security, for approval. f. Communications. (1) At all times during a fresh pursuit situation, the PF officers involved must make every attempt practicable to maintain open communications and to relay as much factual information as possible to the PF dispatcher. (2) Upon the engagement of a fresh pursuit situation, the PF dispatcher must immediately notify supervisors in the PF command structure and the officer in charge of on-site PF operations.

Section 50

(3) When it becomes apparent to the pursuing PF officers that jurisdictional line(s) might be crossed, this information must be transmitted immediately to the law enforcement authorities of the jurisdiction to be entered in accordance with the site-specific emergency notification procedures. To the extent possible, such notification must include a description of the fleeing suspect and/or vehicle, the alleged criminal violation for which the suspect is being pursued, and the location and direction of travel of the suspect. DOE M 470.4-3 Section A, Appendix A-1 08-26-05 A1-5 g. Coordination with Other Law Enforcement Authorities. When other Federal, State or local law enforcement authorities with jurisdiction in the area into which the suspected criminal has fled join the pursuit, they must be primarily responsible for the continued pursuit. (1) The PF dispatcher, supervisors in the PF command structure, and the officer in charge of on-site PF operations must coordinate the pursuit efforts of PF officers with other Federal, State, and/or other local law enforcement authorities who assume primary responsibility. (2) PF officers participating in the pursuit must continue to participate in pursuit operations until otherwise instructed by the PF dispatcher, respective supervisors in the PF command structure, or the officer in charge of on-site PF operations. (3) At least one PF officer unit will remain available to assist the other pursuing Federal or State and other local law enforcement authorities until the pursuit is concluded or otherwise terminated. That PF officer will thereafter provide such law enforcement authorities with all relevant information regarding the circumstances surrounding the incident. h. Arrests. (1) When other Federal law enforcement authorities (e.g., Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) or U.S. Marshal) are involved with PF officers in the apprehension of a suspected criminal (regardless of whether on or off DOE property), PF officers must relinquish arresting authority to the other Federal law enforcement authorities. (2) When State or other local law enforcement authorities are involved with PF officers in the off-site apprehension of a suspected criminal, the issue of which law enforcement official is in charge in order to effect an arrest is generally not a matter of policy but one of common sense dictated by the circumstances. Such an assessment includes an evaluation of the expertise of those present, which agency has first established control, and the disruptive effect, if any, of transfer of control. The determination of which jurisdiction should make the arrest is, therefore, left to the discretion of the officers involved. To the extent practicable, guidelines addressing this issue should be prepared on a site-by-site basis in coordination with State and other local law enforcement authorities. Such guidelines must be included in the site-specific guidelines submitted to the Director, Office of Security, for approval. (3) When a suspected felon is apprehended (regardless of whether on or off DOE property), or when a suspected misdemeanant is apprehended on DOE property, the PF must immediately notify the appropriate U.S. Attorney’s Office and escort the suspect to the nearest U.S. District Court Section A, Appendix A-1 DOE M 470.4-3 A1-6 08-26-05

Section 51

or U.S. Magistrate for arraignment (unless otherwise directed by local Federal law enforcement authorities, e.g., the FBI or a U.S. Marshal). Under no circumstances should a suspected felon be removed to another jurisdiction without first being processed through the Federal criminal justice system where the suspected felon was apprehended. (4) The pursuing PF officers must ensure that any Government property retrieved during pursuit or at the time of apprehension is properly secured and a chain of custody is established.

REQUIREMENTS. a. Firearms training programs must be based on criteria established by the Department of Energy (DOE) National Training Center (NTC). Such training programs must contain attachments on specific site-developed firing range and on-duty (off-duty when applicable) safety information and must incorporate sections of the manufacturer’s operating manuals that are necessary to the safe operation, inspection, and maintenance of specific firearms. b. During firearms training, all personnel must have access to an instruction manual for each type of firearm with which they may be armed while on duty and must demonstrate both technical and practical knowledge of the contents of the manual governing the safe use of that firearm. c. Training records for personnel authorized to carry firearms must be available for review by appropriate safety and security personnel. d. All firearms training, qualification, practice and test firing activities must be conducted by personnel who are certified by the NTC in the principles of operation for the specific weapon system being trained. This certification is specific and personnel must not conduct activities for which they have not been certified. e. Lesson plans for all firearms training must be available for review by appropriate safety and security personnel. Such lesson plans must incorporate safety in addition to other training objectives and task performance standards. The NTC must provide training on how to develop the categorical information to be contained in typical lesson plans. (1) Lesson plans must include a safety briefing for all participants and authorized observers. The briefing must be conducted by personnel experienced in performing exercises and knowledgeable about the firearms to be used.

Section 53

(2) Lesson plans must be written and include safety requirements for any course of fire. f. Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs). (1) All firearms training must be conducted in accordance with this Manual and local SOPs developed in response to specific site needs and tactics as designated by the DOE cognizant security authority. SOPs must include Section B DOE M 470.4-3 I-2 08-26-05 detailed procedures emphasizing the safety of participants, observers, and bystanders and the use of Personal Protective Equipment (PPE). (2) All SOPs must be reviewed and approved by appropriate contractor safety and protective force (PF) personnel at least annually (every 12 months) or more frequently if significant revisions are made in the training program. DOE cognizant security authority and safety personnel review and approve SOPs initially and whenever significant changes are made. (3) The Four General Firearms Safety Rules. (a) All firearms are always loaded. (b) Never point a firearm at anything you are not willing to destroy. (c) Keep your finger off the trigger until your sights are on the target. (d) Be sure of your target. (4) Specific Range Safety Rules. (a) It is mandatory to use approved eye and ear protection and other personal protective equipment as required by the range safety officer. (b) Unsafe conditions must be reported immediately to an instructor. (c) A firearm may only be exchanged with another shooter under the direct supervision of an instructor. (d) Firearms must not be left unattended or unsecured. (e) Firearm loading and firing may commence only on command. (f) Shooters are not permitted to talk during a firing activity except in reply to an instructor as a part of the activity or to shout “cease fire” in an unsafe situation. (g) Until the firing line has been declared safe by the firearms instructor, shooters must not move past or bend over the line. (h) All shooters must be trained on what constitutes an unsafe condition and to shout “cease fire” when such a condition is observed. (i) Smoking, eating, or drinking must be prohibited while shooting. DOE M 470.4-3 Section B 08-26-05 I-3 (j) Alcoholic beverages and drugs are prohibited on firing ranges. Shooters taking medication must report this fact to the firearms instructor before reporting to the firing line. The firearms instructor is responsible for determining whether a shooter is fit based on the medication taken and whether it is safe for the shooter to use the range. A physician may be consulted if necessary. (k) Shooters must take precautions to prevent hot spent cartridge and gunshot residues from getting inside their clothing. (l) When a training session is completed, each firearm must be physically examined by the shooter and by a designated range safety officer or qualified firearms instructor to ensure that it is unloaded and in safe condition before leaving the range. If the shooter is using a duty firearm on the range, he or she may reload that weapon at the range if returning directly to duty. (m) Shooters must collect unexpended ammunition and return it to a firearms instructor. (n) While a firearm is being cleaned, live ammunition must not be allowed in the cleaning area. (5) All firearms training and qualification requires instructor-to-shooter ratios with no more shooters than: (a) One instructor-to-one shooter. 1 Any initial automatic firing (e.g., submachine gun or rifle). 2 Any initial live-fire training of the machine gun (e.g., M60, M249, M240).

Section 54

3 Any explosive projectile (e.g., M79, M203, M72). 4 Any advanced course of fire with any firearm involving movement of the shooter other than straight down range or with a fan of fire greater than 10o. 5 Any automatic fire training (e.g., submachine gun, rifle, or machine gun). (b) One instructor-to-no more than four shooters for Special Response Team (SRT) courses developed by the NTC and approved by the Office of Security and conducted by the NTC or by sites certified to conduct NTC SRT courses. Section B DOE M 470.4-3 I-4 08-26-05 (c) One instructor-to-four shooters for re-qualification with a submachine gun, rifle, or machine gun in automatic mode using controlled bursts of fire and for practice or training for personnel who have qualified on at least one automatic course of fire in Section C. (d) One instructor-to-eight shooters when firing in the semiautomatic mode (e.g., automatic rifle in semiautomatic mode, shotgun, semiautomatic rifle, and pistols), except during night firing and initial training where the instructor-to-shooter ratio must not be more than one instructor-to-four shooters. When using an indoor range, whether daylight or simulated night fire, the instructor-to-shooter ratio may increase to one instructor-to-five shooters. (6) A range safety officer or an instructor with specific delineated responsibilities for range safety (e.g., monitor the safety performance of the shooters as well as overall safety of the firing range) must be present during all firearms training and qualification activities. (a) When the instructor-to-shooter ratio requires only one instructor on the firing line, he or she must be the lead instructor and may be assigned range safety responsibilities if approved by the range master. (b) When the instructor-to-shooter ratio requires two or more instructors on the firing line, there must be a lead instructor presiding over the firing activities (i.e., “calling the line”) who will not be assigned additional instructional duties or be included in the instructor-to-shooter ratio, but may be assigned range safety responsibilities. To accomplish these activities, the lead instructor may be positioned either behind the firing line, in a booth, or in a tower, whichever location provides the greatest safety and control. g. Non-Security Use of Firearms. All Federal and contractor organizations with employees using firearms in non-security related activities must develop a program of firearms safety specific to those activities. The program must be approved by the DOE cognizant security authority. Specific written procedures must be developed and approved for any activity not addressed elsewhere in this Manual that involves the planned discharge of firearms, e.g., competitive shooting matches, public hunting, or pest control. 2. BASIC TRAINING. a. Basic firearms safety training and demonstrated technical knowledge and practical proficiency is required before firearms are permitted to be carried on duty. Safety training must be conducted semiannually (at least every 6 months) at DOE M 470.4-3 Section B 08-26-05 I-5 which time safety proficiency must be demonstrated in order to retain weapon-carrying status. b. Basic firearms training must be conducted at a site approved by the DOE cognizant security authority. c. Basic firearms safety training must include the following: (1) general firearms safety orientation;

Section 55
