On September 13, 2018, an Administrative Judge issued a decision in which she determined that an Individual’s DOE access authorization should not be restored. To support invoking Guidelines G, I, and J, the Local Security Office cited, among other concerns, a DOE Psychologist’s determination that the Individual met the criteria for a diagnosis of Unspecified Alcohol-Related Disorder in Early Remission; the DOE Psychologist’s conclusion that the Individual demonstrated stalking behaviors which comprise a condition which can impair his judgment, reliability, and trustworthiness; and a July 2017 physical altercation involving the Individual’s ex-wife which resulted in a stipulated protection order. Despite the DOE Psychologist’s testimony that the Individual was rehabilitated from her prior alcohol-related diagnosis, the Administrative Judge found that the Individual had not mitigated the Guideline G security concerns because the Individual  had not yet completed his alcohol treatment and had recently relapsed. The Administrative Judge similarly found that the Individual had not mitigated the Guideline J security concerns considering the seriousness of the July 2017 incident and short period of time that had elapsed since the incident. Based on the DOE Psychologist’s testimony that the Individual does not demonstrate symptoms of a current problems and the ex-wife’s testimony that her interactions with the Individual have positively changed, the Administrative Judge found that the Individual had mitigated the Guideline I security concerns. Accordingly, the Administrative Judge determined that the Individual’s access authorization should not be restored. OHA Case No. PSH-18-0050 (Brooke A. DuBois).
