2. Access by Our Employees Assigned Outside of the United States

Our employees assigned outside the U.S., its possessions or territories may have access to classified information in connection with performance on a specified U.S., NATO, or foreign government classified contract. The storage of classified information by our employees at any location abroad that is not under U.S. Government control is prohibited. The storage may be at a U.S. military facility, a U.S. embassy or Consulate, or other location occupied by a U.S. Government organization.

Any of our employees assigned to foreign government or foreign contractor facilities under a direct commercial sales arrangement will be subject to the host-nation’s industrial security policies.

3. Classified Visits to Our Facility by Foreign Nationals

Our visitor record must clearly identify all foreign national visitors to this facility.

Requests for visits by foreign nationals to our facility that will involve disclosure of (1) U.S. classified information, (2) Unclassified information related to a U.S. government classified program, or (3) Plant visits covered by Section 125.5 of the ITAR, shall be processed through the sponsoring foreign government (normally the visitor’s embassy) to the U.S. government agency for approval. A visit authorization for a visit to a parent facility also may be used for visits to other divisions or subsidiaries of the same company provided disclosures are for the same purpose, the information to be disclosed does not exceed the parameters of the approved visit request, and the U.S. government agency concurs.

All foreign nationals visiting our facility must be excluded from access to all classified information and unclassified export-controlled information except as authorized by an export license, approved visit request, or other exemption to the licensing requirements. A foreign visitor should not be advised of the scope of access authorized or of limitations on access imposed by our government. Foreign visitors are never given custody of classified material except when they are acting as an official courier of their government and the Cognizant Security Authority authorizes it.

The FSO must be notified first and as soon as a possible when it is anticipated that foreign nationals will require assignment or long-term visitation in our facility.
