On April 17, 2018, an OHA Administrative Judge issued a decision in which she determined that an individual's DOE access authorization should be restored. To support the Guideline E security concerns, the LSO stated that it relied upon a November 2017 Letter of Reprimand issued to the individual regarding inappropriate remarks he made in October 2017, resulting in conduct that was described as "highly irresponsible and a serious breach of [his] responsibilities as a federal employee." At that time, the individual stated that his supervisor and manager were micro-managers and proceeded to call them "fat bi***es." After being warned that he was speaking loudly, he stated "I don't give a f*ck." In addition, the LSO cited that: (1) witnesses indicated that the individual used an inappropriate and vulgar hand gesture; (2) the individual's inappropriate conduct was an issue in June 2014, resulting in a workplace violence investigation; (3) the individual's conduct in May and June of 2013 resulted in a reprimand letter suggesting a three-day suspension from work; (4) the individual was sent for a psychological evaluation in April 2015 after the 2014 PSI did not resolve the issues; and (5) the individual was issued a Security Reminder Letter in July 2015, which stated that any additional inappropriate conduct would be viewed as a pattern of inappropriate conduct and would impact his eligibility for a security clearance. After carefully considering the totality of the record, the Administrative Judge found that the individual's clearance should be restored. After the incident, the individual took a professional etiquette course, read a book on emotional intelligence, and began attending a weekly Bible study class. In addition, a DOE psychologist stated that the individual's "potential for physical violence is low. That assessment is not just for the moment but is my opinion of his future potential as well." This opinion concurred with a previous DOE psychologist's opinion, offered approximately six month before.  Consequently, based on all of the above, the Administrative Judge found that the individual's access authorization should be restored. OHA Case No. PSH 18 0015 (Janet R. H. Fishman).
