Cost-Effective Housing Systems for Disaster Relief: Evaluation of Applicable Housing Systems Technology; Volume 4

Show summary Open resource [pdf] (open full abstract)
This report examines the entire spectrum of lightweight industrialized housing systems and selected subsystems and evaluates them as temporary accommodations for disaster relief. The purpose of the report is to isolate potentially applicable housing systems and, through a process of pre-selection, identify a limited number of systems that can be rigorously analyzed for cost-effectiveness in Task II. [...] The framework for evaluating housing systems emerged from the cooperation of interested manufacturers and the application of specific criteria proposed by HUD [U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development]. Systems are classified by their usefulness for temporary housing or permanent housing. Although typical systems produced by the manufactured housing industry are not suitable for temporary shelter, they were analyzed for use in a new form of housing assistance: the Fast Delivery Permanent Home. This approach is proposed to offer displace families, as an alternative to temporary housing assistance, the option of effective assistance for moving into and new, permanent home in the shortest possible time.

On-Site Assistance: A Guide for Surveying, Developing, and Maintaining Community Disaster Readiness

Show summary Open resource [pdf] (open full abstract)
"This revised guidance is issued for all involved in DCPA-sponsored On-Site Assistance (OSA), and provides instructions concerning procedures to be followed in conducting OSA projects for local jurisdictions. It reflects experience since the original publication in May 1972 and contains the substance of subsequent guidance issued by various means. The importance of the use of DCPA Standards for Local Civil Preparedness in OSA is also emphasized. The appended material (in a separate document, MP-63-l) furnishes examples of OSA documents and procedures, such as preliminary hazard analysis format; detailed survey questions; and sample action plans and checklists to aid in the OSA process. The first task in OSA is to ascertain: 'What is the real status of local emergency operational readiness?' This question can be answered by measuring the 'success' communities have had in responding to actual disasters, or by investigating the situation by surveying and evaluating local emergency operational readiness on an individual on-site basis. Once it is fully understood what actual capabilities currently exist, then measures can be taken either to develop operational capabilities where deficiencies exist or to maintain existing capabilities and proficiencies."

On-Site Assistance: A Guide for Surveying, Developing, and Maintaining Community Disaster Readiness: Appendices

Show summary Open resource [pdf] (open full abstract)
Appendices to the guide that "is intended to provide an explanation of the goals and objectives of the On-Site Assistance (OSA) effort and to present suggested and proven methods and techniques for achieving these goals and objectives. The following chapters are directed toward developing a sound understanding of the OSA concept and attendant community readiness survey methods for determining the current status of operational readiness for a local community. The importance of each step in the process is explained from selection of communities, scheduling OSA activities, through the actual conduct of followup assistance. The types of followup assistance likely to be needed are described and the determination of local exercise requirements is discussed. Possibly one of the most important elements necessary to the success of the OSA effort is the need for adopting the proper attitude toward the task. Although OSA is essentially complementary to the various DCPA local readiness support programs, there are also significant differences. An initially and understandable reaction to OSA by some Federal and State civil preparedness professionals was, 'I've been doing these things all along; there's nothing new here,;' or 'I don't need someone to tell me how to do my job!' However, most of these civil preparedness personnel later indicated, after having participated, that OSA involves a considerably different approach to operational readiness."

Study of Climatological Research as it Pertains to Intelligence Problems

Show summary Open resource [pdf] (open full abstract)
"The western world's leading climatologists have confirmed recent reports of a detrimental global climatic change. The stability of most nations is based upon a dependable source of food, but this stability will not be possible under the new climatic era. A forecast by the University of Wisconsin projects that the earth's climate is returning to that of the neo-boreal era (1600-850) - an era of drought, famine, and political unrest in the western world. A responsibility of the Intelligence Community is to assess a nation's capability and stability under varying internal or external pressures. The assessments normally include an analysis of the country's social, economic, political, and military sectors. The implied economic and political intelligence issues resulting from climate change range far beyond this traditional concept of intelligence. The analysis of these issues is based upon two key questions: Can the Agency depend on climatology as a science to accurately project the future? What knowledge and understanding is available about world food production and can the consequences of a large climatic change be assessed?"

NRDS Nuclear Rocket Effluent Program 1959-1970

Show summary Open resource [pdf] (open full abstract)
"This report reviews the health implications of radioactive effluent released during nuclear rocket engine tests at the Nuclear Rocket Development Station (NRDS), Jackass Flats, Nevada, prior to 1970. During this period, nuclear rocket engine concepts incorporated an open-cycle hydrogen-cooled, reactor with core operating temperatures of approximately 4,000°F, which cause small quantities of fission products to migrate from the fuel and to be released in the rocket engine exhaust as gases or micrometersized particulates; radioactivity released in this manner is called the 'aerosol effluent.' Core operating conditions caused minor fuel element erosion and corrosion, releasing particles with high radioactivity content (roughly [10 to the 11th power] fissions per particle) and diameters of tens of micrometers; these particles are referred to as the 'particulate effluent.' NRDS adjoins the Nevada Test Site and the Nellis Air Force Range and is located about 80 miles northwest of Las Vegas, Nevada, in an area of low population density and limited agricultural usage. Lathrop Wells (population less than 100), the nearest town, is about 15 miles from the testing locations. Estimates of doses, both potential and actual, resulting from exposure of the off-site population to aerosol effluent from past tests have been 15% or less of the appropriate Federal Radiation Council (FRC) guides and Atomic Energy Commission (AEG) standards."

"A simulated disaster designed to exercise the LLL[Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory] Disaster Control Plan, the Livermore Pool Type Reactor (LPTR) Disaster Control Plan, and the various LLL disaster control support organizations and facilities is described. A simulated LPTR experiment, which resulted in damage to the reactor and injuries to reactor personnel, required response to an uncontrollable reactor, rescue and evacuation of contaminated victims in a high radiation field, decontamination of facilities and personnel. and medical attention for injured operations personnel. The exercise required an alert of the LLL emergency response system and subsequent upgrading from a local accident status to that of a major disaster. The LLL Disaster Control Organization and required support units responded and implemented the LLL and LPTR Disaster Control Plans. Evaluation of the response was provided by umpires and followed by a critique of all personnel involved in the exercise."

Time Distortion in Nuclear War

Show summary Open resource [pdf] (open full abstract)
"Past considerations of nuclear war, particularly those involving battlefield use, have not taken into account a major factor: the time-dependent nature of the human body's response to radiation. This factor is likely to introduce changes in the temporal nature of warfare as profound as the spatial changes associated with the increased explosive power of nuclear munitions. High fatality rates will last for days following a nuclear event and must be taken into account. Continued lack of attention to this aspect of nuclear warfare is likely to result in inappropriate choices of military posture, doctrine, and equipment."

Show summary Open resource [pdf] (open full abstract)
"The President's Committee on Mental Retardation, established by Executive Order No. 11280 on May 11, 1966, has mobilized national planning and carried out basic programs in the field of mental retardation. National goals have been established to reduce the occurrence of mental retardation by one-half before the end of the century and to return one-third of the people in mental institutions to useful lives in their communities. The achievement of these goals will require the most effective possible use of public and private resources. Our country has become increasingly aware in recent years of the need to assure those who are retarded their full status as citizens under the law, and of the continuing need to mobilize the support of the general public and of specialized professional and volunteer groups for mental retardation activities. We also know that we must constantly evaluate existing programs to determine their adequacy and must continually consider a broad range of proposals for new mental retardation activities."

Flood Plain - Handle With Care!

Show summary Open resource [pdf] (open full abstract)
"Almost everyone knows that the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers builds dams, dikes and levees. The Corps is famous-or, in the opinion of some of its critics, infamous-for its public works projects designed to control floods. Not so well known, however, is a broader Corps approach to the problem of flooding: a 'management' approach. The management approach to flood problems means identifying the nature of the flood hazard in a specific area. It means using that basic information and common sense to protect lives. And to prevent or minimize damage to land and buildings subject to flooding. In brief, the management approach means wise use of flood plains. This booklet describes, in non-technical language, some of the fundamentals of wise flood plain management. It stresses non-traditional aspects of flood plain management, those that can be undertaken by a community itself. A word of caution, however. This booklet is not a panacea. The Corps, through its Flood Plain Management Services program, can provide information, technical assistance, and planning guidance. But in the final analysis, how a community uses or abuses its flood plain is up to the community itself."

(1) The Delegation should make clear that the United States has undertaken an extensive review of both sides' approach to the negotiations. The overall U.S. objective continues to be a permanent agreement limiting strategic offensive arms which provides a high degree of equivalence in central strategic systems -- ICBM's [intercontinental ballistic missile], SLBM's [submarine-launched ballistic missile] and heavy bombers. (2) The Delegation should reemphasize that the U.S. considers the establishment of equal aggregate limits on the number, and substantially equal aggregate throw weight, of central strategic systems to be primary elements in establishing such equivalence."

These decisions do not constitute a major new departure in U.S. nuclear strategy; rather, they are an elaboration of existing policy. The decisions reflect both existing political and military realities and my desire for a more flexible nuclear posture. This NSDM provides the policy framework for planning the employment of U.S. nuclear weapons. It also establishes the process by which the principal aspects of this policy will be coordinated, reviewed and revised."

Evaluation of Remotely Piloted Vehicles in the Antiarmor Role

Show summary Open resource [pdf] (open full abstract)
From the document abstract: "There exists a need in the United States Army for a weapons system that is capable of engaging armored vehicles at ranges far exceeding the range of the main armament of the tank. This need is currently being filled by the TV guided bomb and the helicopter mounted TOW [Tube-launched, Optically-tracked, Wire command] missile. However, both of these systems suffer from the drawbacks of high cost and high vulnerability to antiaircraft artillery and missiles. The Remotely Piloted Vehicle (RPV) is a new weapons concept that is examined and compared with the two existing systems. The RPV is found to be far less expensive and much less vulnerable to antiaircraft fire but suffers some possible problems in an electronic countermeasures environment. Some possible solutions to this ECM [Electronic Counter Measures] problem are offered which promise to make the RPV a superior antitank weapon when used as a laser designator for a terminally guided, laser homing weapon."

Mandate for Readiness: U.S. Defense Civil Preparedness Agency Annual Report 1974

Show summary Open resource [pdf] (open full abstract)
"The mind rebels against thinking about disaster. Disasters are never pleasant events-they can't always be averted-but with advance planning, their effects can be mitigated. Preparing for disaster is the major concern of the Defense Civil Preparedness Agency (DCPA). The Congress thought about it nearly 25 years ago-to the extent that legislation was passed, called 'The Federal Civil Defense Act of 1950'. That is how modern-day civil defense, now broadened to 'civil preparedness', came into being. Their concern at the time was the threat of largescale aerial attacks on cities and industrial centers. That concern remains today, as it applies to the more powerful and more extensive effects which can be generated by nuclear weapons. Much has been accomplished on the international scene, and work continues, to assure a peaceful world. But the possibility of attack on this country always exists, and disasters are a daily occurrence in peacetime. That is why DCPA guidance and support is provided to State and local governments to help them establish and improve their emergency operations capabilities. And that is why DCPA assistance is aimed at developing a dual-use capability-a capability for use of personnel, facilities, equipment, and systems to meet the needs of a nuclear-caused disaster and the day-today requirements of peacetime disasters as well."

This is the May 1-2, 1974 hearing on "Implementation of Transportation Controls (Houston, Tex.

From the opening statement of Lloyd Bentsen: "The Clean Air Act sets specific deadlines by which health-related standards would be met. Some communities will be able to reach the health standards by controlling what is referred to as stationary sources--meaning industries, powerplants, manufacturing and 'other permanently fixed fuel burning sources of pollution. But in some cases, particularly where automobiles are a large source of pollution, additional measures may be necessary. The Clean Air Act recognized this and included transportation controls as one element which should be included in State plans where they may be required. In many States where such plans were needed, the Environmental Protection Agency allowed a delay in the submission of plans that would reduce motor vehicle travel. But on January 31, 1973, the court found this approach to be unauthorized and ordered EPA [Environmental Protection Agency] to require submission of such plans where necessary. Some States were then required to resubmit their plans. Many communities then argued that transportation controls were unnecessary for their areas."
