Subpart D—Security Provisions

§ 102-192.85   Must I have a mail security plan?

Every Federal agency and agency location where an agency has one or more full time personnel processing mail must implement a written mail security plan. The size and scope of the security plan should be commensurate with the size and responsibilities of each agency or location. The security plan should be updated whenever circumstances warrant. As a minimum, it should be reviewed annually.

§ 102-192.90   What must I include in the mail security plan?

Your security plan must include polices and procedures for safe and secure operations consistent with your agency's core mission. It must also include:

(c) Procedures for ensuring compliance with the standards established by the Interagency Security Committee that was established in accordance with Executive Order 12977, dated October 19, 1995 (3 CFR, 1995 Comp., p. 413). These standards can be found at http://www.oca.gsa.gov;

(d) A list of all large facilities, their points of contact and telephone numbers; and

(e) Plans for annual reviews of the agency's security plan and facility-level security plans.
