Sec. 770.27  Background.

    (a) Naval installations in Hawaii constitute a significant element 
of the national defense establishment. It is vital to the national 
defense that the use of such areas be at all times under the positive 
control of the Department of the Navy. Strict control must be exercised 
over access to naval installations in order to preclude damage 
accidental and intentional to Government property, injury to military 
personnel, and interference in the orderly accomplishment of the mission 
of command.
    (b) There are several industrial areas within naval installations in 
Hawaii wherein construction activities and the use of heavy machinery 
pose grave risk of danger to visitors.
    (c) Various types of flammable or incendiary materials and ordnance 
are stored at a number of locations within naval installations in 
Hawaii.
    (d) Classified documents and equipment requiring protection from 
unauthorized disclosure by Executive order 12065 for reasons of national 
security are located at various locations within naval installations in 
Hawaii.
    (e) In order to effect the positive control of the Navy over its 
installations in Hawaii, it is essential that entry onto those 
installations be restricted to authorized persons only.
    (f) These entry regulations are being promulgated under the 
authority of Commander, Naval Base, Pearl Harbor, who has been assigned 
as immediate area coordinator for all naval installations in the State 
of Hawaii by Commander-in-Chief, U.S. Pacific Fleet.
