RMKS/1.  Effective immediately, reference (a) is to be implemented within the 
Department of the Navy.  Reference (a) can be located at the following 
website:  https://portal.secnav.navy.mil/orgs/DUSNP/Security-
Directorate/Personnel-Security/SitePages/Home.aspx.

2.  Periodic Reinvestigations
    a.  Secret - Tier 3 periodic reinvestigations (T3R) will continue
    to be conducted at the ten year periodicity.
    b.  Top Secret - Tier 5 periodic reinvestigations (T5R) will be
    initiated six years after the date of the previous investigation
    versus the five year mark.  The change in T5R submissions will
    ensure Department of Defense (DoD) T5R investigations remain within
    the current seven year reciprocity guidelines and will continue
    reducing the backlog.  Reinvestigations should only be submitted at
    a five year periodicity if:
        (1) Specifically required by other DoD policy (i.e., for a
        Special Access Program, or for Industry cases as directed by the
        Defense Security Service).
        (2) The DoD Consolidated Adjudications Facility (DoD CAF),
        Command Security Manager or the Special Security Officer is aware of
        significant derogatory information requiring review.

3.  The DoD CAF may request additional information from data sources or 
government entities in order to determine eligibility for access to 
classified information or to hold sensitive positions when certain types of 
derogatory information requires resolution.

4.  Deputy Under Secretary of the Navy (Policy) (DUSN(P)) Security will track 
appropriate key performance measures through the Defense Security Enterprise 
Advisory Group (DSEAG).  The purpose of tracking key performance measures is 
to ensure the authorities granted in reference (a) produce outcomes that 
mitigate the mission readiness impacts associated with the personnel security 
investigation (PSI) backlog.  DUSN(P) Security will work in conjunction with 
the DSEAG to develop and implement measures to mitigate risks associated with 
the PSI backlog.

5.  The point of contact for this effort is Ms. Shirley Maddox-Stubbs, Deputy 
Personnel Security Branch Chief, Security Directorate, DUSN(P), 
shirley.maddoxstubbs@navy.mil.

6.  Released by Sean J. Stackley, Acting Secretary of the Navy.//
