Which facilities are not required to post anyone when alarms are inoperable?

• A. All facilities are required to post someone
• B. Only the Bank of Guam
• C. The Bank of Guam, PFCU, AAFES and DeCA
• D. Only DeCA and AAFES

Answer: (C)

When an alarm isn’t working, the usual rule is to have someone posted on site to deter theft and respond to issues until the system is fixed. Some facilities, however, have alternative security arrangements or centralized monitoring that cover alarm outages, so they don’t need an on-site watcher. In this case, the Bank of Guam, PFCU, AAFES, and DeCA are exempt from the posting requirement during alarm outages, while other facilities would typically still need to designate a person to monitor.
