Book excerpt: Consequence management is a critical issue addressed in the new National Military Strategy. It tells foes of the United States that the Department of Defense (DoD) will have sufficient capability and readiness to respond to a Weapons of Mass Destruction/Effects attack. An effective consequence management strategy deters and dissuades the enemy's use of weapons of mass destruction. As DoD adopts the National Military Strategy and its consequence management approach, it must identify Weapons of Mass Destruction/Effects threats and appropriate responses. The National Military Strategy contains a consequence management strategy that meets three ends: enhanced protection for the force while fighting through a Weapons of Mass Destruction/Effects event; response to an internal DoD Weapons of Mass Destruction/Effects attack; and meeting the needs of a lead federal agency should a foreign or domestic Weapons of Mass Destruction/Effects event occur. DoD has done much to ensure it is ready for such an event, but improvements can still be made. DoD must conduct a thorough analysis to address gaps and duplications in the technical response system. This paper recommends that DoD develop Weapons of Mass Destruction/Effects performance standards for response assets; implement a consequence management readiness reporting system for technical assets; combine guidance on foreign and domestic Weapons of Mass Destruction/Effects events into one overarching consequence management document; use the Federal Emergency Response Agency model to study means gaps for assets listed in Joint Chiefs of Staff Instruction 3110.16; and establish performance standards for tactical and operational consequence management response assets.

Download or read book The Department of Defense as Lead Federal Agency for Consequence Management - Poised for Success? written by and published by . This book was released on 2002 with total page 27 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The events of September 11, 2001 brought home that the use of weapons of mass destruction (WMD) in the U.S. is a likely future event. In response to this potential threat, the federal government has built the federal response plan. This plan addresses both crisis response and consequence management. The Department of Defense (DoD) plays only a supporting role in these areas, being subordinate to the Federal Bureau of Investigation for crisis response and to the Federal Emergency Management Agency for consequence management. The local, state, and federal response systems may initially be overwhelmed and unable to respond in the event of multiple WMD strikes within the U.S. Given the personnel and assets possessed by DoD, it is likely in this case that DoD will be designated the lead federal agency for consequence management. DoD is not currently prepared for such an event. Questions of scope of authority to respond and scope of mission need to be answered before response efforts can begin. The current statutory regime is confusing and no there is no available plan within DoD that specifically contemplates DoD as the lead federal agency. The combination of these may well lead to confusion and a slow response by DoD assets at a time when speed is of the essence. These statutes should be rewritten to clarify the expected DoD mission and DoD should initiate a deliberate plan that specifically contemplates DoD as the lead federal agency for consequence management.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Consequence Management is a complex problem facing the US today. A subset of Homeland Security, Consequence Management is the post attack actions needed to prevent further suffering and restore basic government services. Consequence Management requires a symphony of effort from many federal agencies, including the Department of Defense. Because organizations are driving their actions based on misperceptions gleaned from the 1996 Sarin attack in Tokyo, many are moving in divergent directions. These divergent programs are often competing for the same resources, and siphon these resources away from the local response community. This monograph explores these common misperceptions and recommends a new direction, closer to the required capabilities, for the Department of Defense role in Consequence Management. The monograph recommends the elimination of specialized units for WMD response. An honest assessment of the time element of an event shows the folly of this approach. The second recommendation is the creation of a tiered response capability that balances time and tasks required for effective Consequence Management. The three response tiers allows the DoD to provide a predesignated level of support to the appropriate Federal and state agency. The first two tiers address the response required for toxic chemical events. The third tier is reserved for the actions required for the Consequence Management for a biological release.

Book excerpt: The threat of chemical and biological weapons attack against U.S. forces and population centers, as well as those of our allies, is real and growing. Mitigating the effects of such an attack--consequence management--is an essential part of responding to the threat. While progress is being made at the federal level, several departments and agencies, including the Department of Defense (DOD), are struggling to develop and coordinate effective responses. DOD organization, planning, and funding for consequence management fail to reflect the complexity of today's security environment, including: the potential for asymmetric warfare, the vulnerability of military facilities at home and abroad, and the indiscriminate character of chemical and biological weapons when used against military facilities near civilian population centers. Within DOD, effective consequence management is constrained by the presence of arbitrary conceptual and organizational divisions that inadequately define the response according to the nature, location, and target of the attack. The lack of an integrated DOD approach to many similar and overlapping consequence management activities involving the same resources and units contributes to poorly-defined mission requirements, organizational confusion, and inefficient resource allocation. These problems lead to unrealistic planning assumptions regarding the ability of DOD to conduct overseas operations in case of a major chemical or biological attack in the United States.

Book excerpt: Since the Cold War, the threat of weapons of mass destruction (WMD) attacks by rogue nations and terrorist groups have increased, thus causing the United States and its partner nations (PN) to devote more attention and resources to crisis and consequence management. The Defense Threat Reduction Agency (DTRA) is the Department of Defense's (DoD) official combat support agency for countering weapons of mass destruction that include chemical, biological, radiological, nuclear, and high explosive weapons (Defense Threat Reduction Agency, 2007). Within DTRA is the Consequence Management Assistance Program (CMAP), the DoD's primary consequence management program for the US' Partner Nations (PN). Currently CMAP has an unreliable metric system that fails to provide meaningful analysis to show definitive improvement in measured areas. This research used value focused thinking to create a framework that effectively analyzes a PN's capacity and capability to deal with consequence management. The framework provides CMAP the ability to compare data over time and track PN progress. It allows the user to generate recommendations for the DoD on PN resource allocation in order to further develop their consequence management abilities and nurture international relations.

Book excerpt: The United States Government (USG) has been extremely active in preparing for a domestic WMD attack, especially after the 9/11 attacks in 2001, which has led to a robust capability to respond to WMD attacks within U.S. borders. Unfortunately, the USG has not invested as much time addressing the issue of a WMD attack in a foreign country and what the USG response would be. Although some work has been done, such as establishing joint doctrine and conducting multinational exercises, the USG and specifically the DOD and GCCs are not optimally prepared to conduct Foreign Consequence Management (FCM) operations. Therefore, the DOD and GCCs must work toward building a more robust capability and establishing the required relationships necessary to successfully mitigate the consequences of a WMD attack. FCM operations address very complex problem sets with no easy solutions. Such operations will inevitably involve dozens of agencies and organizations, not to mention one or more foreign governments that may not have even begun to think about such unimaginable events. Therefore, it is imperative that GCCs plan for their response to these events before they happen. A well thought out plan with a solid operational scheme will be an essential jumping off point for conducting FCM operations.

This book was released on 2003 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Department of Defense (DoD) must clarify its role in the national response structure designed to manage the potential consequences of chemical, biological, radiological, nuclear or high-yield explosive (CBRNE) events occurring in the United States. Roles and responsibilities should be developed which capitalize on the CBRNE strengths of DoD but which are also aligned with a realistic threat assessment, the President's strategic direction and issues of feasibility. DoD and the U.S. Northein Command must recognize that they are just one player in this national consequence management system and that their effectiveness depends, not on the development of dedicated domestic military response resources, but on a n%ich more effective integration and synchronization of existing resources. This will necessitate changes in operational command and control for military CBRNE assets as well as a realignment of relationships between DoD and other goveinment agencies to facilitate the unity of effort necessary for effective national response.

Book excerpt: There is growing concern of increasing terrorist threats in the United States. Terrorist organizations are gaining increased access to the technology necessary to develop and employ Weapons of Mass Destruction. No single military organization has been assigned responsibility for consequence management. Assigning this responsibility to a single military organization could focus effort and provide civil authorities with a fully coordinated and standardized response to terrorist threats. National Guard units are trained to respond quickly to domestic emergencies. They have established emergency response relationships with local and state organizations. Strategically located throughout the U.S., the National Guard can be organized, trained, and structured to assume the Department of Defense lead for consequence management.

This book was released on 2012-10-02 with total page 172 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This publication provides joint doctrine for the military response to mitigate the effects of a chemical, biological, radiological, or nuclear event or incident. Chemical, biological, radiological, and nuclear consequence management (CBRN CM) can be described as the overarching United States Government (USG) capability and the strategic national direction, to prepare for, respond to, and recover from the effects of a chemical, biological, radiological, and nuclear (CBRN) incident at home or abroad, and whether or not it is attributed to an attack using weapons of mass destruction (WMD). When required, the USG will coordinate its response to a CBRN incident in one of three ways based on the geopolitical situation. The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) is the USG lead agency for incident management that would include a domestic CBRN incident. Overseas, excluding homeland areas, the Department of State (DOS) is the USG lead for what is termed foreign consequence management (FCM). The geographic scope of the domestic CBRN response is associated with the US homeland. Generally, when tasked, Department of Defense (DOD) is a supporting agency, coordinating agency, or cooperating agency in support of DHS within the National Response Framework (NRF) and National Incident Management System (NIMS). A response could take place in a permissive or uncertain foreign operational environment. Requests for FCM originate from an affected nation through DOS. The military situation is when CBRN incidents occur requiring DOD to lead the USG response effort due to the lack of DOS and/or sufficient affected nation 'federal' presence as a result of military operations or for a CBRN incident on a DOD installation. CBRN CM provides the operational framework for those authorized measures DOD takes in preparation for anticipated CBRN incidents to mitigate the loss of life and property and to assist with the response and short-term recovery that may be required. This includes having plans, policies, procedures, training, and equipment necessary to effectively respond to CBRN incidents. This publication has been prepared under the direction of the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff. It sets forth joint doctrine to govern the activities and performance of the Armed Forces of the United States in operations and provides the doctrinal basis for interagency coordination and for US military involvement in multinational operations. It provides military guidance for the exercise of authority by combatant commanders and other joint force commanders (JFCs) and prescribes joint doctrine for operations and training. It provides military guidance for use by the Armed Forces in preparing their appropriate plans. It is not the intent of this publication to restrict the authority of the JFC from organizing the force and executing the mission in a manner the JFC deems most appropriate to ensure unity of effort in the accomplishment of the overall objective. Joint doctrine established in this publication applies to the commanders of combatant commands, subunified commands, joint task forces, subordinate components of these commands, and the Services. The guidance in this publication is authoritative; as such, this doctrine will be followed except when, in the judgment of the commander, exceptional circumstances dictate otherwise. If conflicts arise between the contents of this publication and the contents of Service publications, this publication will take precedence unless the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, normally in coordination with the other members of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, has provided more current and specific guidance. Commanders of forces operating as part of a multinational (alliance or coalition) military command should follow multinational doctrine and procedures ratified by the United States.

This book was released on 2008 with total page 28 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Domestic Consequence Management has been marginalized in recent national strategy guidance. Agencies, forces, and command structures designated to respond and recover from a terrorist attack are not prepared for a large weapon of mass destruction (WMD) scenario. Radiological, explosive, and chemical WMDs represent the most likely terrorist threats to the homeland. An analysis of three case studies, each designed to model the most likely threats, yields deficiencies in command and control, logistics, and training. With a new command and control construct for homeland response and recovery, improved emphasis on the Department of Defense (DoD) roles in catastrophic consequence management, and clarified legal constraints for DoD operations in the homeland, the Commander, U.S. Northern Command (NORTHCOM) could provide a comprehensive and workable federal domestic consequence management plan.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the last twenty years a series of nuclear, biological, and chemical accidents and incidents have unveiled a disturbing aspect of the modern age - the potential for manmade disasters of horrific proportions. In response to this threat a new mission area called Consequence Management (CM) has evolved. The Department of State is the lead federal agency for dealing with foreign CM, but it is the regional CINCs who are charged with planning for and responding to CM emergencies. In an era of declining assets, it is questionable whether the CINCs and their major subordinate commanders can meet the rigorous demands of CM and still achieve their operational and teaming requirements. Forming a Joint-Interagency Task Force for CM (JIATF-CM) is one way to bridge the gap. By relieving the CINCs of the burden of immediate response and providing assistance in CM planning and coordination, a standing JIATF-CM may be a wise investment. With NBC terrorist attacks and regional conflicts a near certainty, maximizing our defenses through a more efficient use of limited operational assets is very much in our nation's interest.
