Access is restricted. Since admission to ARL is restricted to individuals conducting official business with our laboratories, the ARL:UT Security Office must be informed in advance about scheduled visits.

Provide advance notice to ARL. Notify your ARL point of contact well ahead of time, whenever possible, of your intent to visit the ARL complex. This notice may be given either in writing or by phone. When you provide this information in advance, Security Office personnel have ample time to review the visitor approval form submitted by your point of contact.

Have a security clearance? Provide an advance DoD visit authorization request. If you hold a security clearance through your organization, before your visit have your security office fax or mail a visit authorization request to the ARL Security Office. Your security officer may also submit visit requests through the Joint Personnel Adjudication System (JPAS), SMO Code 553545 or 553546.

Advance notice expedites your check-in! If you've notified your ARL contact ahead of time, your visitor's badge will be ready when you arrive at the Laboratories. Visitors must present government issued picture ID, i.e. passport, military ID, or state driver's license. Company IDs and credit cards are not acceptable.

Questions? If you have any questions concerning visits to ARL, or about other security matters, please contact the ARL Security Office at 512-835-3701 or 512-835-3362.
