There have been inquiries from the field about the issuance 
of Department of the Interior Identification Cards.  The
following is a re-transmittal of the information provided to
all AO's on November 5, 1996.

1.  The WRD Administrative Officer, as per SM440.1.2B(2), is
    the issuing officer for DOI Identification Cards, DI-238A
    and DI-238.  All requests for these ID cards should be
    sent by email or letter to this office, MS 403, attn:
    Pat Powers (email papowers with cc to dcmadril).  Please
    specify card and quantity.  Any questions regarding these
    instructions may be directed to Pat Powers,(703) 648-5039)
    or myself at (703) 648-5028.

2.  The temporary pass for volunteers specified in 
    SM 440.1.2E(1) is not a numbered form and you must 
    request this item as "Temporary Pass for Volunteers',
    blue in color.  This is in fact an un-numbered form as I
    asked to see one to verify this.  Please insure that the
    requirements of SM 440.1.2E(1) are met.

3.  The Retiree Identification Card is also an un-numbered
    ID card and is also ordered from Pat Powers.  She will
    assign numbers to them here at Headquarters as we like to
    keep track of our retirees.

Please insure that DI-238 Identification Cards are not issued
to contractor personnel without an appropriate background
suitability check being initiated.

Also noted in SM 440-.1.2B(3) is that the card is completed, 
authenticated and issued by the issuing officer.  This 
authority will be delegated to the field by WRD Memorandum in
the near future.  Until that time, this message delegates
signature authority to District Chiefs, Acting District Chiefs,
and Administrative Officers.  This authority is not to be
re-delegated below those levels.
