Sec. 712.16  DOE security review.

    (a) A personnel security specialist will perform a personnel 
security file review of an HRP candidate and HRP-certified individual 
upon receiving the supervisory review, medical assessment, and 
management evaluation and recommendation.
    (b) If the personnel security file review is favorable, this 
information must be forwarded to the HRP certifying official. If the 
review reveals a security concern, or if a security concern is 
identified during another component of the HRP process, the HRP 
certifying official must be notified and the security concern evaluated 
in accordance with the criteria in 10 CFR part 710, subpart A. All 
security concerns must be resolved according to procedures outlined in 
10 CFR part 710, subpart A, rather than through the procedures in this 
part.
    (c) Any mental/personality disorder or behavioral issues found in a 
personnel security file, which could impact an HRP candidate or HRP-
certified individual's ability to perform HRP duties, may be provided in 
writing to the SOMD, Designated Physician, and Designated Psychologist 
previously identified for receipt of this information. Medical personnel 
may not share any information obtained from the personnel security file 
with anyone who is not an HRP certifying official.
