NAS Pax Safety Returns to ID Dealing with at Gates > United States Navy > News-Tales

The transfer again to dealing with of IDs is in accordance with Commander, Navy Installations Command Instruction 5530.14A, which dictates bodily and visible checks are to be carried out on Frequent Entry Playing cards (CACs) and IDs along with Protection Biometric Identification System (DBIDS) scans as a method of additional verification of credentials.

 

Pax River Safety personnel had gone to a “no contact” system of checking IDs at gates as a Well being Safety Situation (HPCON) measure in response to COVID. As the bottom has shifted to HPCON Alpha and COVID transmission charges proceed to fall within the surrounding group, the set up has shifted again to dealing with of IDs at gates.

 

“Whereas DBIDs scanners and visible checks of IDs are efficient instruments in figuring out who has correct entry to the bottom, bodily dealing with of entry credentials similar to CACs and DOD ID playing cards by skilled sentry personnel is an added measure to stop guests or those that would do us hurt from utilizing cast, expired, or in any other case invalid credentials to enter the bottom,” mentioned Lt. Charles Whittenton, NAS Patuxent River Safety Officer.

 

Personnel and guests are reminded to have IDs prepared for inspection and scanning previous to arrival on the gate to stop delays.
