2 EXISTING REQUIREMENTS AND GUIDANCE
2-1
DOD REQUIREMENTS
There are several instructions and publications within the Department of Defense that
establish required access control procedures for an installation, objectives of an entry
control facility, and the responsibility for the operation of the facility.
2-1.1
DOD 5200.8-R Physical Security Program
This regulation requires DOD Components to determine the necessary access control
based on the requirements of a developed physical security program. It also requires
the evaluation of automated entry control systems or access devices, where necessary.
Emergency planning is specified to include establishment of a system for positive
identification of personnel and equipment authorized to enter and exit the installation
and maintenance of adequate physical barriers that will be deployed to control access
to the installation. Planning will also include increasing vigilance and access restrictions
during higher force protection conditions.
2-1.2
DOD 2000.12 DOD Antiterrorism (AT) Program
This directive provides DOD policies for ATFP and assigns responsibilities for
implementing the procedures for the DOD ATFP Program. It authorized the publication
of DOD O-2000.16 as the DOD standards for ATFP and DOD O-2000.12-H DOD
Antiterrorism Handbook as guidance for the DOD standards. DOD O-2000.12H defines
the DOD Force Protection Condition (FPCON) System, which describes the potential
threat levels and the applicable FPCON measures to be enacted for each level. It also
requires Commanders to develop and implement Random Antiterrorism Measures
(RAM) as an integral part of their AT Program.
2-1.3
DOD 2000.16 DOD Antiterrorism Standards
This instruction and service directives require the installation or activity Commanding
Officer to define the access control measures at installations. Additionally DOD
2000.16 requires Commanders at all levels to develop and implement a comprehensive
Antiterrorism (AT) Program, which should define the necessary action sets, including
identification and inspection procedures, at each of the potential Force Protection
Condition (FPCON) levels.
2-1.4
UFC 4-010-01 DOD Minimum Antiterrorism Standards for Buildings
This UFC was issued under the authority of DOD 2000.16, which requires DOD
Components to adopt and adhere to common criteria and minimum construction
standards to mitigate antiterrorism vulnerabilities and terrorist threats. The minimum
standards are based on the assumption that larger amounts of explosive will be
detected and denied entry at the controlled perimeter of an installation. It is, therefore,
critical that the infrastructure and operating procedures at the Entry Control Facility are
capable of that mission.
