level of confidential. See Federal Acquisition Regulation clause
**52.204-2** in this contract and DD Form 254, Contract Security
Classification Specification.

**(End of Clause)**

**1.6 [SECURITY REQUIREMENTS FOR UNCLASSIFIED INFORMATION]{.underline}**

**[TECHNOLOGY RESOURCES]{.underline} (NFS 1852.204-76) (JUL 2002)**

\(a\) The contractor shall be responsible for Information Technology
security for all systems connected to a NASA network or operated by the
contractor for NASA, regardless of location.

This clause is applicable to all or any part of the contract that
includes information technology resources or services in which the
contractor must have physical or electronic access to NASA's sensitive
information contained in unclassified systems that directly support the
mission of the Agency. This includes information technology, hardware,
software, and the management, operation, maintenance, programming, and
system administration of computer systems, networks, and
telecommunications systems. Examples of tasks that require security
provisions include:

\(1\) Computer control of spacecraft, satellites, or aircraft or their
payloads;

\(2\) Acquisition, transmission or analysis of data owned by NASA with
significant replacement cost should the contractor's copy be corrupted;
and

\(3\) Access to NASA networks or computers at a level beyond that
granted the general public; e.g., bypassing a firewall.

\(b\) The contractor shall provide, implement, and maintain an IT
Security Plan. This plan shall describe the processes and procedures
that will be followed to ensure appropriate security of IT resources
that are developed, processed, or used under this contract. The plan
shall describe those parts of the contract to which this clause applies.
The contractor's IT Security Plan shall be compliant with Federal laws
that include, but are not limited to, the Computer Security Act of 1987
(40 U.S.C. 1441 et seq.) and the Government Information Security Reform
Act of 2000.

The plan shall meet IT security requirements in accordance with Federal
and NASA policies and procedures that include, but are not limited to:

\(1\) OMB Circular A-130, Management of Federal Information Resources,
Appendix III,Security of Federal Automated Information Resources;

\(2\) NASA Procedures and Guidelines (NPG) 2810.1, Security of
Information

Technology; and

\(3\) Chapter 3 of NPG 1620.1, NASA Security Procedures and Guidelines.

\(c\) Within the 30 days after contract award, as specified in DRD
titled, "Information Technology Security Plan," the contractor shall
submit for NASA approval an IT Security Plan. This plan must be
consistent with and further detail the approach contained in the
offeror\'s proposal or sealed bid that resulted in the award of this
contract and in compliance with the requirements stated in this clause.
The plan, as approved by the Contracting Officer, shall be incorporated
into the contract as a compliance document.

\(d\) (1) Contractor personnel requiring privileged access or limited
privileged access to systems operated by the contractor for NASA or
interconnected to a NASA network shall be screened at an appropriate
level in accordance with NPG 2810.1, Section 4.5; NPG 1620.1, Chapter 3;
and paragraph (d)(2) of this clause. Those contractor personnel with
non-privileged access do not require personnel screening. NASA shall
provide screening using standard personnel screening National Agency
Check (NAC) forms listed in paragraph (d)(3) of this clause, unless
contractor screening in accordance with paragraph (d)(4) is approved.
The contractor shall submit the required forms to the NASA Center Chief
of Security (CCS) within fourteen (14) days after contract award or
assignment of an individual to a position requiring screening. The forms
may be obtained from the CCS. At the option of the government, interim
access may be granted pending completion of the NAC.

\(2\) Guidance for selecting the appropriate level of screening is based
on the risk of adverse impact to NASA missions. NASA defines three
levels of risk for which screening is required (IT-1 has the highest
level of risk):

> \(i\) **IT-1** \-- Individuals having privileged access or limited
> privileged access to systems whose misuse can cause very serious
> adverse impact to NASA missions. These systems include, for example,
> those that can transmit commands directly modifying the behavior of
> spacecraft, satellites or aircraft.
>
> \(ii\) **IT-2 \--** Individuals having privileged access or limited
> privileged access to systems whose misuse can cause serious adverse
> impact to NASA missions. These systems include, for example, those
> that can transmit commands directly modifying the behavior of payloads
> on spacecraft, satellites or aircraft; and those that contain the
> primary copy of "level 1" data whose cost to replace exceeds one
> million dollars.
>
> \(iii\) **IT-3 \--** Individuals having privileged access or limited
> privileged access to systems whose misuse can cause significant
> adverse impact to NASA missions. These systems include, for example,
> those that interconnect with a NASA network in a way that exceeds
> access by the general public, such as bypassing firewalls; and systems
> operated by the contractor for NASA whose function or data has
> substantial cost to replace, even if these systems are not
> interconnected with a NASA network.

(3) Screening for individuals shall employ forms appropriate for the
    level of risk as follows:

> \(i\) IT-1: Fingerprint Card (FC) 258 and Standard Form (SF) 85P,
> Questionnaire for
>
> Public Trust Positions;
>
> \(ii\) IT-2: FC 258 and SF 85, Questionnaire for Non-Sensitive
> Positions; and

::: Definition-Term
\(iii\) IT-3: NASA Form 531, Name Check, and FC 258.
:::

::: Definition-Term
\(4\) The Contracting Officer may allow the contractor to conduct its
own screening of individuals requiring privileged access or limited
privileged access provided the contractor can demonstrate that the
procedures used by the contractor are equivalent to NASA\'s personnel
screening procedures. As used here, equivalent includes a check for
criminal history, as would be conducted by NASA, and completion of a
questionnaire covering the same information as would be required by
NASA.
:::

\(5\) Screening of contractor personnel may be waived by the Contracting
Officer for those individuals who have proof of --

::: Definition-Term
\(i\) Current or recent national security clearances (within last three
years);
:::

::: Definition-Term
\(ii\) Screening conducted by NASA within last three years; or
:::

::: Definition-Term
\(iii\) Screening conducted by the contractor, within last three years,
that is equivalent to
:::

::: Definition-Term
the NASA personnel screening procedures as approved by the Contracting
Officer under paragraph (d)(4) of this clause.
:::

\(e\) The contractor shall ensure that its employees, in performance of
the contract, receive annual IT security training in NASA IT Security
policies, procedures, computer ethics, and best practices in accordance
with NPG 2810.1, Section 4.3 requirements. The contractor may use
web-based training available from NASA to meet this requirement.

\(f\) The contractor shall afford NASA, including the Office of
Inspector General, access to the contractor's and subcontractors'
facilities, installations, operations, documentation, databases and
personnel used in performance of the contract. Access shall be provided
to the extent required to carry out a program of IT inspection,
investigation and audit to safeguard against threats and hazards to the
integrity, availability and confidentiality of NASA data or to the
function of computer systems operated on behalf of NASA, and to preserve
evidence of computer crime.

\(g\) The contractor shall incorporate the substance of this clause in
all subcontracts that meet the conditions in paragraph (a) of this
clause.

**(End of Clause)**

**\[ICDE\]I.7 [STATEMENT OF EQUIVALENT RATES FOR FEDERAL
HIRES]{.underline}**

**(FAR 52.222-42) (MAY 1989)**

clause.

(End of Clause)

**I.10 [TECHNICAL INFORMATION RELEASES AND PUBLICATIONS]{.underline}**

As authorized by paragraph (d)(1) of the Rights in Data-General Clause
(FAR 52.227-14) of this contract, the following exception shall apply:

During the performance of this contract, if data relating to this
contract is planned for use in oral or written presentations,
professional meetings, seminars, or in articles to be published in
professional, scientific, and technical journals and similar media, the
contractor shall assure that an advance information copy of the
presentation or article is sent to the COTR to have the benefit of
advance information concerning accomplishments of interest to provide an
opportunity to make suggestions to the contractor concerning revisions,
if it is considered that such comments might be useful to the contractor
to help assure the technical accuracy of the

information to be presented or published. The information copy will be
forwarded to the COTR of the contract at least four weeks in advance of
the date the author intends to give the presentation or submit the

(End of Clause)

# I.12 [SPECIAL PROVISION FOR CONTINGENT REPROCUREMENT RIGHTS]{.underline}

\(a\) Because of the long life of the Space Shuttle and Space Station
Programs, and in order to preclude problems in the event the contractor
at some point becomes no longer able or willing to supply the hardware
required to be delivered under this contract, the contractor shall
deliver to the Government a complete data package sufficient in
technical detail to enable a responsible third party to manufacture the
hardware. This data shall be delivered as part of the Critical Design
Review Package, as specified in DRD titled, "Critical Design Review Data
Package."

\(b\) To the extent that any such data qualifying as proprietary
(limited rights data and/or

restricted computer software), and contingent upon 1) the Government's
exercise of one, or both, hardware production options, and 2) the
contractor's inability or unwillingness to supply the Government's
additional requirements for the hardware at any time in the future, the
Government shall then have the additional right to use such data for
purposes of manufacture (or rehabilitation, repair, etc.) and to release
it to a third party for such purposes.

\(c\) Until such time as the events described in paragraph (b) occur,
any data which should be included in the CDR package but which is
proprietary, shall be included in a supplemental package to be retained
by the contractor's facility in order for the Government to review the
data and ensure that it is complete and sufficient in technical detail.
In addition, periodic reviews may be requested by the Government at the
contractor's facility. The contractor will automatically notify the
Government when any changes are made to procedures, processes,
materials, etc., which affect the proprietary data contained in the
supplemental package in order that any necessary reviews may be
conducted. The Government shall not have the right to remove or obtain
such copies in the course of conducting such reviews. Only Government
personnel will be permitted to review the supplemental package.

\(d\) If the events in paragraph (b) occur, in accordance with paragraph
(g)(2) (vi) of the clause at 52.227-14, Rights in Data---General (JUN
1987) and its Alternates and as modified by 18-52.227-14 NASA FAR
Supplement, the Government will notify the contractor in writing of its
intent to exercise its contingent reprocurement rights, if the
Government reasonably determines that the Contractor is no longer
capable of supplying, or no longer willing to supply the Government's
additional requirements for hardware, parts, maintenance,
rehabilitation, or the like.

\(e\) The Contractor shall incorporate, and require its subcontractors
at all tiers to incorporate, this clause in all subcontracts. It is the
contractor's responsibility to ensure that this clause is enforceable at
all subcontract levels.

(End of Clause)

**I.13 [LIMITED RIGHTS DATA NOTICE]{.underline}**

\(a\) Notwithstanding any other terms and conditions of this contract,
the Government shall have the right to disclose technical data marked as
limited rights data outside of the Government, without obtaining
permission from the contractor, under the following circumstances:

> \(1\) Use (except for manufacture) by support service contractors.

\(2\) Evaluation by non-government evaluators.

\(3\) Use (except for manufacture) by other contractors participating in
the

Government's program of which the specific contract is a part, for
information and use in connection with the work performed under each
contract.

\(4\) Emergency repair or overhaul work.

\(5\) Release to a foreign government, or instrumentality thereof, as
the interests of the United States Government may require, for
information or evaluation, or emergency repair or overhaul work by such
government.

\(b\) Prior to disclosure, except in emergency circumstances as
identified in paragraphs 4 and 5 above, the Government shall require the
recipient to sign an agreement, provided by and acceptable to the
contractor, to protect the data from unauthorized use and disclosure.
The contractor shall provide a copy of the acceptable nondisclosure
agreement to the Contracting Officer no later than 30 days after
contract award.

[]{.mark}

(End of Clause)

**I.14 [INDEFINITE QUANTITY]{.underline} (52.216-22) (OCT 1995)**

\(a\) This is an indefinite-quantity contract for the supplies and
services specified, and effective for the period stated in the contract.
The quantities of supplies and services specified in the contract are
estimates only and are not purchased by this contract.

\(b\) Delivery or performance shall be made only as authorized by orders
issued in accordance with the Ordering clause. The Contractor shall
furnish to the Government, when and if ordered, the supplies or services
specified in the contract up to and including the maximum designated in

\(c\) Except for any limitations on quantities in the Order of
Limitation clause, there is no limit on the number of orders requiring
delivery to multiple destinations or performance at multiple locations.

\(d\) An order issued during the effective period of this contract and
not completed within that period shall be completed by the Contractor
within the time specified in the order. The contract shall govern the
Contractor's and Government's rights and obligations with respect to
that order to the same extent as if the order were completed during the
Contract's effective period; provided, that the Contractor shall not be
required to make any deliveries under this contract after 12 months from
the completion date of the contract.
