A single report shall be provided with separate data for each facility having guard coverage.

-Provide and maintain a high state of security in and around the buildings, and as necessary, provide a response capability and assist in emergency management situations, acts of terrorism, bomb threats, internal disorder, civilian employee demonstrations, or other criminal acts which adversely affect the security and/or safety of the Government, employee property, and the public lawfully in the building or on the grounds.

-Notify the Visitor Control Center and when directed, the police and fire departments in the event of an emergency or an unusual occurrence adversely affecting the interest of the Government.
