background check performed before entering the building. The vendor staff
members required to have this background check must obtain the required
authorization letter from their employer before reporting to a PSP installation to

criminal history check shall be used by the PSP for a fitness determination. PSP
will retain records of those individuals who have completed the fingerprint
background check.
