FY2006 Homeland Security Grants Program Guidance and Application Kit
"Several significant changes in the HSGP [Homeland Security Grant Program] and its focus are being made for FY 2006. First, this marks the first grant cycle in which the Interim National Preparedness Goal is in place to outline National Priorities and focus expenditures on building capabilities. This common planning framework and the tools that support it allow the Nation to define target levels of performance and measure progress made toward achieving them. In addition, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) is adopting in FY 2006 a risk- and need-based approach to allocating funding for certain programs within HSGP. The aim is to allocate and apply these resources to generate the highest return on investment and, as a result, strengthen national preparedness in the most effective and efficient manner. In addition to integrating these new policy developments, the FY 2006 HSGP guidance: Highlights the Interim National Preparedness Goal and its applicability to the FY 2006 HSGP; Highlights the Target Capabilities List and its applicability to the FY 2006 HSGP; Presents overall FY 2006 HSGP policy and program requirements, including overall FY 2006 HSGP allowable costs; Guides grantees in the application and award process for the FY 2006 HSGP; Provides detail on the specific requirements associated with FY 2006 SHSP [ State Homeland Security Program], UASI [Urban Areas Security Initiative], LETPP [Law Enforcement Terrorism Prevention Program], MMRS [Metropolitan Medical Response System], and CCP [Citizen Corps Program]."

Strengthen, Prepare, Respond: The Interagency Board FY 2016 Annual Report
"The IAB's [InterAgency Board] mission is to strengthen the Nation's ability to prepare for and to respond safely and effectively to emergencies, disasters, and chemical, biological, radiological, nuclear,
and explosive (CBRNE) incidents. Today, this mission is more complex than in the early days of the IAB. Attacks on police, civil unrest, wildfires, and widespread addiction were not as prominent then as they are now. These incidents have significant impacts on our communities and tax public safety resources. Incidents today routinely cross disciplinary lines and have raised citizens' expectations of local, state, and federal response capabilities. Public safety responses to local incidents now include emergency management, public health, and state and federal partners in addition to police, fire, and emergency medical services. Assets such as the National Guard Civil Support Teams, the Federal Bureau of Investigation, and U.S. Customs and Border Protection are increasingly integrated into local planning meetings. Additionally, our Nation's Fusion Centers are routinely involved in intelligence sharing with local partners. Interagency cooperation across all tiers of response is vital as we all work in a common mission space."

Limits and Prospects of Military Analogies for Homeland Security: Goldwater-Nichols and Network-Centric Warfare
This report is part of chapter two of five chapters in the series: Threats at Our Threshold: Homeland Defense and Homeland Security in the New Century: A Compilation of the Proceedings of the First Annual Homeland Defense and Homeland Security Conference. The following is taken from the introduction of the report: "Since the attacks of 9/11, the United States has sought to strengthen its ability to prevent terrorist attacks and respond to high-consequence events affecting the U.S. homeland. Washington's tactic of choice to improve counterterrorism and homeland security has been to reorganize the federal government. The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) was created in 2003 to rationalize assets and centralize activities related to borders, domestic asset protection, preparedness and response, information integration and dissemination, and science and technology. The Office of the Director of National Intelligence (ODNI) was created to better coordinate the fragmented intelligence community Washington's decision to turn to far-reaching reorganization in response to new national security challenges has significant historical precedent. The National Security Act of 1947 created the Department of Defense (DoD) and the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) to help the United States meet the security challenges it faced after World War II. It took another decade, however, to establish the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO), deterrence and various other critical institutions and concepts to fight the Cold War effectively. For every step in the right direction, there were missteps, trial and error. It took another 39 years before Congress passed the Goldwater-Nichols Act to foster 'jointness' among the military services, something that Dwight Eisenhower had lobbied for both as a general and as President. U.S. efforts to address homeland security and counterterrorism represent the most significant federal reorganization since 1947. But the 'big bang' creation of both the DHS and DNI are not sufficient. Reorganization is only a step in refashioning government and society to meet the challenges of global terrorism and homeland security."

Goldwater-Nichols Act for Homeland Security
This report is part of chapter two of five chapters in the series: Threats at Our Threshold: Homeland Defense and Homeland Security in the New Century: A Compilation of the Proceedings of the First Annual Homeland Defense and Homeland Security Conference. The following is taken from the introduction of the report: "All cabinet-level departments need to join together in a Goldwater- Nichols type reform to look at man-made and natural threats and government responses in an integrated manner. By creating better communication and synergistic efforts our government will be better equipped to handle, in a cost effective manner, the outcome of a terrorist act or natural disaster. This course of action will drive a holistic approach for the development of capabilities that will be flexible and resilient while providing a proactive capability to prevent some of the threats facing us today and in the future. The attempted rescue of U.S. hostages held captive by Iranians in 1980 was categorized as unsuccessful, not just for its failed effort, but also because of a plethora of interoperability issues. For example, Marine Corps pilots were operating unfamiliar Navy helicopters, covertly inserting Army Special Forces to waiting Air Force refueling platforms, and while its joint concept appeared fluid, the operation was nevertheless chaotic. Interoperability issues would also plague the U.S. efforts in Grenada three years later. 'Who,' asked Colonel O. E. Jensen, 'hasn't heard about the soldier who called from a phone booth on Grenada back to the States to get a message passed to U.S. Navy ships lying in sight offshore? Who doesn't know that the ATO [Air Tasking Order] in the Gulf War had to be printed, copied, and carried to the Navy by hand because communication systems were incompatible? Such incompatibility could cost lives in the next war."

Fire and Explosion Planning Matrix
"Recent terrorist events in the United States underscore the importance of fire prevention and workplace emergency planning efforts. Fires or explosions created by arson or an explosive device can be the quickest way for a terrorist to affect a targeted business. Consequently, the Occupational Safety & Health Administration (OSHA) developed this Fire and Explosion Planning Matrix to provide employers with planning considerations and on-line resources that may help employers reduce their vulnerability to, or the consequences of, a terrorist's explosive device or act of arson."

Evacuation Planning Matrix
"Recent terrorist events in the United States underscore the importance of workplace evacuation planning. Consequently, OSHA [Occupational Safety & Health Administration] developed this Evacuation Planning Matrix to provide employers with planning considerations and on-line resources that may help employers reduce their vulnerability to a terrorist act or the impact of a terrorist release. Terrorist incidents are not emergencies that OSHA expects an employer to reasonably anticipate. However, if a terrorist release does occur in or near your workplace, an effective evacuation plan increases the likelihood that your employees will reach shelter safely."

Information Assurance: Trends in Vulnerabilities, Threats, and Technologies [Working Paper]
"To better understand the problems of incorporating IT into the battlefield, CTNSP, in concert with The Center for Public Policy and Private Enterprise (CPPPE) of the University of Maryland School of Public Affairs, brought together leaders in the field of military and commercial policy and technology (A list of attendees can be found in Appendix A). The purpose of the meeting was to discuss information assurance issues as they relate to network centric warfare. The workshop objective was to gain insight into transformation risks in the following areas: trends in information system threats and vulnerabilities; vulnerabilities introduced by the complexity of the new digitized battlefield; impact of degraded information systems on battlefield operations; and trends in information assurance technologies and system design. This volume presents the proceedings of that workshop. By virtue of their diverse experiences and concerns, workshop participants offered unique insights into a multiplicity of issues. As was to be expected, they did not always agree. Their disagreements are instructive and highlight the magnitude of the challenges we face in harnessing the operational and technological aspects of network centric warfare."

Global Century: Globalization and National Security
"The Global Century: Globalization and National Security is a two-volume work. Volume I provides an overall framework. It focuses on globalization's impact on world affairs and on the task of forging responsive U.S. policies and strategies. Volume II provides additional analyses of specific global and regional trends, and of policies for dealing with them. Scholarly in their tone and content, both volumes aim to illuminate and educate, not advocate. They do not put forth any single theory of globalization's future or a fixed policy blueprint to follow. Indeed, they present a wide range of opinions, interpretations, and recommendations from more than 50 experts drawn from multiple disciplines and specializations. They offer core themes, including a weighty sense of globalization's strategic essence and an insightful portrayal of the policy choices facing the United States and other countries. Their goal is to help inform the reader about globalization, its consequences, and its policy implications."

Strategic Plan: Fiscal Years 2004-2009
In accordance with the Government Performance and Results Act of 1993, the Department of State and Agency for International Development (USAID) Strategic Plan for Fiscal Years 2004 to 2009 sets forth the Secretary of State's direction and priorities for both organizations in the coming years. The Strategic Plan supports the policy positions set forth by President Bush in the National Security Strategy and presents how the Department of State and USAID will implement U.S. foreign policy and development assistance. In the Strategic Plan, the Mission section defines the primary aims of U.S. foreign policy and development assistance as well as our priorities in the coming years. The remainder of the Strategic Plan provides an overview of our four strategic objectives and describes the key perspectives and outlooks for each associated goal. In addition, key U.S. Government partners and external factors that could affect achievement of goals are identified for each goal. The strategic objectives and goals constitute the strategic planning framework for both agencies. This framework serves as the basis for both organizations' annual performance plans at the Department, Bureau, and Mission levels. The annual plans focus more specifically on efforts to meet tangible performance goals and contain specific performance indicators. Success in meeting performance goals indicates the overall progress in achieving the mission and strategic objectives set forward in this Strategic Plan.

Budget in Brief: Fiscal Year 2005 Budget Request
The State Department believes the FY 2005 performance budget identifies the resources required for a proactive U.S. foreign policy, and aims to provide adequate funding to meet the President's commitments in the campaigns waged. The FY 2005 budget request for Department of State appropriations totals $8.552 billion. This amount represents an increase of $364 million over the FY 2004 level, including supplementals. The request sustains key components of the State Department's operations and infrastructure, as well as U.S. engagement abroad through public diplomacy and international organizations. Moreover, it builds on initiatives for people, security, and information technology to meet new requirements in the post-September 11 environment. The requested resources will enable the State Department to: support the war on terrorism; strengthen protection of U.S. borders; meet critical staffing needs; continue to construct and upgrade secure diplomatic facilities; exploit information technology; build alliances of common interests through public diplomacy; conduct strategic educational and cultural exchanges; fulfill U.S. commitments to international organizations; and finally, back international peacekeeping.

Army's Commitment to Supporting the Homeland Security Chemical, Biological, Radiological, Nuclear, and High-Yield Explosive Weapon Terrorist Threat: Can the Reserve Components Meet the Requirement by Themselves?
The United States Government has identified of highest priority the development of effective capabilities for preventing and managing the consequences of terrorists use of chemical, biological, radiological, nuclear and high-yield explosive (CBRNE) materials and weapons on the American homeland. The Department of Defense (DOD) and Army both have a significant role in this effort. This paper will look at those roles and focus on the Army's ability to support the Homeland Security (HLS) CBRNE terrorist threat in the areas of agent sampling, detection, identification, and decontamination operations. Specifically, it will address the Reserve Components (RC) capability for responding to an incident and demonstrate the value-added of Active Component (AC) forces. The conclusion is the RC cannot fulfill the Department of the Army's commitment to this important mission by itself: AC forces must assume a more prominent role to ensure an adequate DOD response in this critical area.

United States Army 2002 Transformation Roadmap
This 2002 Army Transformation Roadmap outlines our Transformation strategy and details how Army Transformation supports sustained progress toward the attainment of the six critical operational goals for Transformation stated in the 2001 Quadrennial Defense Review. It describes steps The Army is taking to create a culture of innovation that seeks to exploit and shape the changing conduct of military competition. The Army will explore new combinations of concepts, people, organizations, and technology in order to produce new or increased capabilities, protecting our Nation and the Joint Force against asymmetric threats. In short, we seek to institutionalize Transformation as a continuous process. Army Transformation, as part of the Department of Defense's transformation, requires a holistic approach to meeting the demands of the evolving National Security Strategy. As such, it includes a fundamental review of how The Army organizes staffs, equips, trains, and develops its leaders to execute its doctrine in the 21st century. Transformation is fundamentally about changing the way we deploy, fight, sustain, and use information. Transformation will provide new capabilities to the Joint Force Commander to enable the Joint Force to assure our allies and friends, dissuade military competition, deter aggression, and, if necessary, decisively defeat aggressors.

Analysis of First Responder Grant Funding
"At the direction of Chairman Cox and Subcommittee Chairman Shadegg, Committee staff undertook a review to determine: (1) whether DHS was making its terrorism preparedness grant funds available to States in a timely and effective manner; (2) how DHS terrorism preparedness grants were being allocated by States among their internal jurisdictions, and how quickly; (3) how these grants were being utilized by States and localities; and (4) the reasons for any delay in expenditures of these funds by state and local recipients. Based on a review of the grant data and other information collected, Committee staff found that: 1) DHS awarded homeland security grant funds to States reasonably quickly, but without any real assessment of need or risk (except for the Urban Area Security Initiative). 2) Almost one-third of all States allocated money among their internal jurisdictions without regard to need or risk (other than population), and those that applied risk or need factors did not follow any standard approach to doing so. 3) There were no Federal terrorism preparedness standards or goals to guide expenditure of funds at the state and local levels, leading to numerous examples of questionable spending. 4) Only a very small portion of awarded funds has been utilized to date by state and local recipients. Committee staff found a myriad of explanations for this delay, but identified four common causes: planning to spend the grant, which often occurred late in the grant process, after the grant was awarded and obligated to localities; obtaining local board approval of grant spending; fulfilling state and local procurement regulations; and setting aside funds that could be used to purchase equipment while waiting for reimbursement from DHS."

Common Approach to Preparedness: The National Preparedness Goal
"Terrorist attacks, natural disasters, and other emergencies respect neither political nor geographic boundaries. To deal with major events effectively requires a national preparedness system that makes clear the roles and missions of entities at all levels, strengthens preparedness partnerships, establishes performance objectives and measures, and directs the allocation of resources and prioritization of investments. A major milestone in building this national preparedness system is the Interim National Preparedness Goal (the Goal). The Goal will transform the way we think about preparedness by defining capabilities that must be in place, at appropriate levels, to prevent and respond to current and future threats and hazards. The Goal establishes measurable targets and priorities to guide the Nation's planning, and provides a systematic approach for determining how prepared we are, how prepared we need to be, and how we should prioritize efforts to close the gap."

HSPD-8 in Context: The NRP, NIMS and the Goal
"Complex 21st century threats, exemplified by the horrific events of September 11th 2001, demand that all Americans share responsibility for homeland security. All levels of government, the private sector, and non-governmental agencies must be prepared to prevent, protect against, respond to, and recover from a wide spectrum of major events that exceed the capabilities of any single entity. These hazards require a unified and coordinated national approach to planning and to domestic incident management. To address this need, Homeland Security Presidential Directive 5: Management of Domestic Incidents (HSPD-5) and Homeland Security Presidential Directive 8: National Preparedness (HSPD-8) establish national initiatives that develop a common approach to preparedness and response. The initiatives are the National Incident Management System (NIMS), the National Response Plan (NRP), and the National Preparedness Goal (the Goal)."

Trouble Exposed: Katrina, Rita, and the Red Cross: A Familiar History
"While its history and continuing public confidence have earned the Red Cross a reputation for being a reliable and trusted organization, a closer look at its performance in disaster areas reveals significant problems. Most recently, Hurricanes Katrina and Rita have highlighted the Red Cross difficulties in providing rapid and reliable relief to disaster victims " difficulties perhaps most pronounced in economically disadvantaged and minority communities."

Time Sensitive Targeting: Overcoming the Intelligence Gap in Interagency Operations
"The Central Intelligence Agency's attack on a group of terrorists in Yemen epitomized the agency's short-notice capability to detect, track, and destroy a highly mobile and fleeting target of opportunity. The U.S. military and other federal agencies will not respond to terrorist threats overseas where the destruction of the adversary is allowed under the rules of armed combat. These highly mobile threats also may be found in the United States, where the rules of law apply and the target must be apprehended and prosecuted. The Department of Defense (DOD) perceives a time-sensitive target (TST) as an Iraqi mobile SCUD missile launcher, while other agencies view TSTs not as surface-to- air missiles (SAMs) but as humans engaged in a range of quickly moving hostile activities, such as terrorists fleeing in a vehicle. Human targets of interest may be terrorists, drug smugglers, or illegal aliens; they are highly mobile and exploit weaknesses in defense systems. When engaged in hostile or illegal activities, they may be subject to military, diplomatic, economic, intelligence, or law enforcement actions, abroad or in the United States. The present process and capability to detect and identify SCUD-like TSTs lies within the capabilities of DOD and the intelligence community, and national and operational intelligence assets may provide the combatant commander with sufficient data with which to engage TSTs. However, when the source of targets is in or around the United States, and where the lead agency is not the military but a law enforcement agency, strategic and operational intelligence assets are rarely available or used; and if available, are rarely effective. This paper reveals gaps created by a lack of intelligence coordination and interagency cooperation when dealing with TSTs in an interagency environment within the United States."

Is a Goldwater-Nichols Act Needed for Homeland Security?
This report is part of chapter two of five chapters in the series: Threats at Our Threshold: Homeland Defense and Homeland Security in the New Century: A Compilation of the Proceedings of the First Annual Homeland Defense and Homeland Security Conference. The following is taken from the introduction of the report: "The Goldwater-Nichols legislation that was enacted into law in 1986 is widely viewed as largely responsible for the most significant reform of the Department of Defense (DoD) since the National Security Act of 1946. While not without substantial flaws, the DoD is generally seen as a highly capable cabinet agency; one that is extremely mission-oriented and able to achieve tangible results while other federal departments often lack operational capacity. Five years after the 9/11 attacks, and one year after the disappointing governmental response to Hurricane Katrina, many in the national security community are asking whether a Goldwater-Nichols type reform is needed for the nation's homeland security system. From the dysfunction of the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) to the continuing interagency battles about roles, responsibilities and budget share, it is clear that the United States does not yet have a comprehensive, cohesive and competent system to ensure the security of the homeland. When considering whether a Goldwater-Nichols type reform would be useful or appropriate, it is useful to reflect on the major achievements of the original Goldwater-Nichols Act and how it might or might not translate into the homeland security arena."

Reserve Component Transformation: Opportunity for Real Change
This report is part of chapter three of five chapters in the series: Threats at Our Threshold: Homeland Defense and Homeland Security in the New Century: A Compilation of the Proceedings of the First Annual Homeland Defense and Homeland Security Conference. The following is taken from the introduction of the report: "Despite a number of studies and recommendations conducted in the last several years on potential changes to the size, shape, and focus of the National Guard and federal Reserves, the Department of Defense (DoD) has generally made only gradual changes to the Reserve Component. While the transformation of the Guard and Reserves has been particularly gradual in the area of homeland defense and civil support, DoD and Congress now have the opportunity and the responsibility to make real changes that will ensure the future health of the National Guard and Reserves. Since the September 11th attacks, the spotlight has been shining brightly on the National Guard and Reserves. In the aftermath of the attacks, the nation relied heavily on the Guard and the Reserves to help protect the homeland. National Guard troops provided airport security and critical infrastructure protection in the weeks following the attacks until they could be replaced with civilian security. The Air National Guard flew extensive combat air patrols in the months following September 11th and has continued to play a key role in the air sovereignty mission for the past five years. The DoD has also mobilized Reserve Component units extensively to serve in overseas operations as part of the war against Islamic extremism. Reserve units were quickly mobilized and deployed to Afghanistan in the fall of 2001, and since 2003 nearly every combat brigade of the National Guard has been deployed as well."

National Infrastructure Protection Plan: Public Health and Healthcare Sector
From the Document: "Homeland Security Presidential Directive 7 (HSPD-7) identified 17 sectors of the U.S. economy and designated Federal Government Sector-Specific Agencies (SSAs) for each of the sectors. Each sector is responsible for developing and submitting Sector-Specific Plans (SSPs) and sector-level performance feedback to the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) to enable national cross-sector critical infrastructure and key resources (CI/KR) protection program development and gap assessments. SSAs are responsible for collaborating with public and private sector security partners and encouraging the development of appropriate information-sharing and analysis mechanisms within the sector.
