Access Control – New
Hires
MST1 Josh Miller
Overview
This provision is intended to limit the
risk presented by an individual who
has not undergone a full security
threat assessment and has not been
issued a TWIC, while balancing the
need to enable individuals to begin
work as soon as possible.
Who does this apply to?
-
Direct employees of a facility
This does NOT include
Longshoremen, Truck Drivers,
Contractors, Vendors, and other
Visitors.
-
Accompanied Access
A new hire who has not yet received a
TWIC may be granted accompanied
facility access for up to 30
consecutive calendar days, and may
be extended for an additional 30 days
by the cognizant COTP if TSA has
not yet issued the new hire’s TWIC,
provided all of the following steps are
completed…
1. The individual has applied for a TWIC
in accordance with 49 CFR 1572, and
the owner/operator has the individual
sign a statement affirming this.
2. The individual can present another
form of ID that meets requirements of
33 CFR 101.515 (i.e.. Photo ID
verified issued by employer).
3. There are no circumstances that would
cause reasonable suspicion
regarding the individuals ability to
obtain a TWIC (i.e. Known criminal
history).
4. This section may NOT be used to grant
accompanied access to individuals
being hired as Facility Security
Officers (FSO).
5. The FSO must submit the new hire’s
personal data and employer contact
information into Coast Guard’s
