Classified Material Storage

Transporting classified material to the SMMCS is highly discouraged.  If bringing classified material (up to SECRET) to the SMMCS is essential, please notify SPD in advance so that appropriate storage arrangements can be made.  If any attendee requires SIPR access, please contact a member of SMMC/ SPD as soon as possible.

Post JPAS Visit Requests

All attendees and support staff who will be attending the CLASSIFIED briefings are required to submit a JPAS visit.  Forward the JPAS visit request NLT 10 October to SMO CODE M30000 and for assignment purposes, Mr. Randy Kowski at (703) 614-1515 as the point of contact.  Ensure that access to CLASSIFIED material (secret) has been granted in JPAS.  JPAS is real-time, therefore once you have ensured access it is not necessary to contact SPD for confirmation.

Special Requirements

During the registration process, please advise SMMC/SPD staff of any special requirements (dietary restrictions, allergies, medical information, reasonable accommodation, etc) so that we can provide the best possible support to you during the SMMCS.
