Movement of a vehicle in Stack Parking may be necessary to accommodate unforeseen circumstances, and to allow for the exit of other vehicles parked in Stack Parking. # Berkeley Lab employees and affiliates who choose to park in Stack Parking spaces must observe the following regulations: ## Park as close as possible to the vehicle, stop line, or barrier in front and/or behind of your vehicle. (Maintain a less-than-30-inch gap between vehicles.) ## Display your standard Berkeley Lab parking permit. ## Display a Stack Parking Card. or contact information ## Stack Parking Cards are available on request from the Badge Office. h4.{anchor:r104c}D.4 Parking Policy Enforcement # Berkeley Lab Security patrols parking lots throughout the Laboratory to carry out parking policy enforcement. Parking policies are enforced through the use of Parking Violation Notice forms issued by Berkeley Lab Security to vehicles that are parked in violation of parking policies. # One copy of the Parking Violation Notice will be left by Security on the vehicle, and another copy will be provided to the Berkeley Lab Site Access Manager for review. # The University of California Police Department (UCPD) conducts traffic and parking enforcement patrols throughout Berkeley Lab. UCPD patrols may issue parking citations for vehicles and drivers observed to be violating the California Vehicle Code. # The Site Access Manager will review each Parking Violation Notice for accuracy and assess the appropriate parking point penalty to the owner of the vehicle found to be in violation of parking policy. # Berkeley Lab parking permit holders who accumulate six points in any consecutive 90-day period or 10 points in a year are subject to having their parking privileges suspended for up to 30 working days. When a parking permit holder approaches the 90-day or annual parking point threshold, the Site Access Manager will submit the parking permit holder's Parking Violation Notice file to the Berkeley Lab Transportation Demand Management Committee. # The Transportation Demand Management Committee will review all applicable Parking Violation Notices and make a recommendation on the status of the parking permit holder's parking privileges. # Parking permit holders who believe they were issued a Parking Violation Notice in error may submit an appeal through the Site Access Manager for review. |*Berkeley Lab Parking Policy Violations*| | |*Offense*|*Points*| |Parking in an unauthorized space such as a loading zone, an unmarked area, in an area not allowed by permit type (for example, General parking permit in an Orange Circle parking space) |2| |Failure to display permit|2| |Failure to display Stack Parking contact information while parked in a Stack Parking space|2| |Failure to adhere to posted instructions|2| |Unauthorized parking in a handicapped zone|3| |Parking in a red zone|3| |Parking in a manner that creates an imminent safety hazard (for example, blocking a traffic lane)|3| h4.{anchor:r104d}D.5 Parking Regulations # *Forgotten Permit.* Persons who forget their hanging permit may request a temporary one-day parking permit at the entry gate. The issuance of a temporary parking permit will be reported to Site Access. Abuses of the temporary permit provisions are subject to the penalties noted below. # *Replacement of Lost or Stolen Parking Permits.* To replace a lost or stolen parking permit, contact the Badge Office. # *Penalties for Abuse of Parking Privileges.* To ensure that the parking policy is enforced equitably throughout Berkeley Lab on-site parking areas, the Laboratory has instituted a point system for parking violations by which various parking offenses are assigned penalty points within a period of time. After six points are accumulated within a three-month period, parking privileges are suspended for 30 days. Ten points accumulated in a year will also result in a 30 day suspension. If a continual pattern of abuse is detected, further administrative action may be taken (see the [Parking Enforcement System page|http://www.lbl.gov/Workplace/site-access/parking/parkingEnforcement.html] for more information). # *Return of Parking Permit on Termination of Employment.* Parking permits are the property of the Laboratory and must be returned to the employee's division office or the Badge Office no later than the last day of employment. If the permit holder leaves after hours, parking permits can also be turned in to the security officer at the entry gates. h3.E.
