Specifically, during the one-year period following the separation or retirement, DOD must treat the previously held security clearance as an active clearance for purposes of former members or employees retaining employment with covered DOD contractors. During the two-year period following that year, DOD must ensure the adjudication of any request submitted by such employee for reactivation of a previously held security clearance for purposes of employment is completed not later than 180 days after the date of submission.
