9/20/2010--Introduced.Supporting Employee Competency and Updating Readiness Enhancements for Facilities Act of 2010 or the SECURE Facilities Act of 2010 - Amends the Homeland Security Act of 2002 to set forth provisions governing the Federal Protective Service (FPS), the Interagency Security Committee (ISC), and the security of federal facilities. Requires the Director of FPS to:(1) secure federal facilities protected by FPS and safeguard all occupants;
(2) provide adequate numbers of trained personnel to ensure that federal security standards are met;
(3) ensure that areas in and around such facilities are regularly patrolled by FPS officers; and
(4) ensure that FPS maintains not fewer than 1,200 full-time equivalent employees at any time and not fewer than 1,350 in FY2011, 1,500 in FY2012, 1,600 in 2013, and 1,700 in FY2014. Requires the Director to:
(1) establish minimum training requirements for all armed guards procured by FPS;
(2) establish a program to periodically assess the training of guards and the security of federal facilities;
(3) update the Security Guard Information Manual and post orders within 180 days and every 2 years thereafter;
(4) establish a database to monitor all contracts for guard services; and
(5) increase the number of infrastructure security canine teams by up to 10 canine teams in each of FY2011-FY2014. Directs:
(1) the Secretary of Homeland Security, through the Director, to designate three federal facilities protected by FPS for the deployment of advanced imaging technology and, one year after implementation, to report to the appropriate congressional committees on the readiness or use of automatic detection technology for building security; and
(2) the Under Secretary for the National Protection and Programs Directorate to develop performance-based standards for checkpoint detection technologies for explosives and other threats at federal facilities. Authorizes the Director to assess and collect:
(1) fees and security charges from agencies for the costs of providing protective services to agency facilities; and
(2) additional charges for the costs of necessary security countermeasures for facilities determined to be in noncompliance with ISC standards. Directs the ISC to:
(1) prescribe regulations for determining federal facility security levels and to establish risk-based performance standards for facility security;
(2) establish protocols for testing facility compliance with such standards;
(3) prescribe regulations to determine minimum levels of training and certification of contract guards and to establish a list of prohibited items for entry into federal facilities;
(4) establish minimum requirements and a process for providing basic security training for members of Facility Security Committees (FSCs); and
(5) take necessary actions to enhance the quality and effectiveness of federal facility protection. Requires the ISC to establish:
(1) an appeals board to consider appeals from any FSC of a facility security level determination, of FPS or designated security organization recommendations for countermeasures, or of a determination of noncompliance with security standards; and
(2) a process under which the Secretary may authorize an agency to provide protective services for a facility instead of FPS. Requires agencies that are tenants at a federal facility and that are not authorized to provide protective services at that facility to maintain an FSC. Authorizes the Secretary to prescribe regulations regarding the carrying of firearms by FPS law enforcement officers while off-duty. Includes such FPS officers as federal employees for purposes of civil service retirement and federal employee retirement system provisions. Requires the Secretary to report to the appropriate congressional committees on:
(1) FPS personnel needs;
(2) how retention rates within the FPS contract guard workforce affect FPS operations and federal facility security; and
(3) converting the FPS contract workforce into full-time federal employees.
