Minimum Security Standards for Safeguarding Biological Select Agents and Toxins
The Purpose this instruction is: "a. This instruction establishes DON [Department of the Navy]policy, assigns responsibilities, and prescribes procedures for the Navy Biological Surety Program. It is Navy policy that BSAT [Biological Select Agents and Toxins] in the custody of the Navy shall be properly safeguarded against theft, loss, diversion, or unauthorized access or use, and that operations with such agents are conducted in a safe, secure, and reliable manner. b. BSAT subject to the provisions of the Navy Biological Surety Program are listed in appendix A. The requirements for managing recovered biological warfare material are outside of the Navy's Biological Surety Program, and are the responsibility of the Assistant Secretary of the Army (Installations and Environment) (ASA(I&E)). c. Users of this regulation will establish processes to facilitate its implementation. The biological surety program is a commander's or director's program. Therefore, when a process is established that is neither prescribed nor prohibited by this regulation, the judgment of the commander or director shall take precedence. For purposes of this regulation, 'commander or director' is the individual with responsibility for executing the biological surety mission. d. This regulation applies to contractors who have access to Navy or DoD [Department of Defense}-supplied BSAT. Where requirements pertaining to contractors differ from those for military or DoD civilian employees, they are discussed in the body of the text. e. Commanders or directors may cite this regulation as the authority for requesting resources necessary to meet the safety, security or personnel reliability requirements of BSAT operations. f. Commanders or directors will restrict access to BSAT to authorized persons and keep the number of persons allowed such access to a minimum consistent with mission, safety, and security requirements."

Chief of Naval Operations Instruction 3440.16C: Navy Civil Emergency Program
The purpose of this instruction is to "provide Navy policy, planning guidance, operational structure, and assignment of responsibilities in the implementation of references (a) through (e) for the assistance to civil authorities in the event of an emergency. […]. The down-sizing and reorganization of the Department of Defense (DOD) has had a significant impact on the Navy emergency preparedness organization. U.S. Atlantic Command (USACOM) is now a DOD Principal Planning Agent and has responsibility for all of the continental U.S. (CONUS), and Forces Command (FORSCOM) is now a component command of USACOM. Regional Planning Agent (RPA) sites have been changed, as well as some RPAs' geographic areas of responsibility (AOR). The new 'all hazards' approach to civil emergency preparedness, including Civil Defense, has obviated the need for separate Civil Defense emergency procedures."

Chief of Naval Operations Instruction 3440.16D: Navy Defense Support of Civil Authorities Program
The purpose of this instruction is to "promulgate policy, planning guidance, operational structure, and assign responsibilities to Navy Defense Support of Civil Authorities (DSCA) as reference (a) through (d). This instruction is a complete revision and should be reviewed in its entirety. [...]. As discussed in reference (a), the Nation's domestic incident management landscape encompasses a broad spectrum of threats and hazards, both manmade and natural. Efforts to anticipate, respond to, and recover from these varied threats and hazards evolved over the last half of the 20th century; plans were developed for different jurisdictions, disciplines, contingencies, and phases of incident management. To respond to the emerging threats of the 21st century, the Nation must embrace a unified and coordinated approach to incident management. The Homeland Security Act of 2042 and the Homeland Security Presidential Directive-5 (HSPD-5), Management of Domestic Incidents, issued in February 2003, set forth the mission for this new national approach to domestic incident management. Accordingly, the Secretary of Defense has directed the Services to develop plans for conducting DSCA for domestic incidents."

U.S. Navy's Arctic Roadmap: Adapting to Climate Change in the High North [Presentation]
This presentation was made at the NDIA (National Defense Industrial Association) Environment, Energy Security & Sustainability (E2S2) Symposium & Exhibition held in May 2011 in New Orleans, LA. It is a short discussion of the Navy's plans for adapting to climate change in the Arctic. In the near-term, the Navy expects an increase in Arctic maritime activity due to new fishing routes and potential access to oil and other materials. Also discussed are the potential impacts of sea level rise, water and resrouce challenges, ocean acidification, and an increased disaster response. The Navy proposed the creation of Task Force: Climate Change in order to address these issues.

Statement of Admiral Jonathan Greenert, U.S. Navy, Chief of Naval Operations, Before the House Subcommittee on Defense, Committee on Appropriations on FY 2014 Department of Navy Posture, 07 May 2013
This statement was presented by Admiral Jonathan Greenert, Chief of Naval Operations, before the U.S. House of Representatives Committee on Appropriations, Subcommittee on Defense. This testimony is from the May 7, 2013 hearing, "FY 2014 Department of Navy Posture". From his statement: "Chairman Young, Ranking Member Visclosky, distinguished members of the committee; it is my pleasure to appear before you today to testify on the Navy's Fiscal Year (FY) 2014 budget and posture. I am honored to represent the approximately 613,000 active and reserve Sailors and Navy Civilians serving today, as well as their Families. […] Before discussing our FY2014 budget submission, we have to clarify our current situation in FY2013. This will form the baseline for our FY2014 program. In February, Navy faced a shortfall of about $8.6 billion in our FY2013 operations and maintenance (O&M) account due to a combination of requirements growth, the Continuing Resolution and sequestration. Since then, thanks to the Congress' efforts, we received an FY2013 appropriation in March as part of the Consolidated and Further Continuing Appropriations Act of 2013. This appropriation restored about $4.5 billion toward our total need in operations and maintenance. As a result, we have a FY2013 shortfall in operations and maintenance of about $4.1 billion, approximately 10 percent of the planned amount for this fiscal year."

CNO's Navigation Plan, 2014 - 2018
"Sailing Directions assist mariners in planning a long voyage by describing the destination, providing guidance on which routes to take, and identifying the conditions, cautions, and aids to navigation along the way. CNO's [Chief of Naval Operations] Sailing Directions likewise provide a vision, tenets, and principles to guide our Navy as we chart a course to remain ready to meet current challenges, build a relevant and capable future force, and enable and support our Sailors, Civilians, and their families. A Navigation Plan draws from Sailing Directions to describe in greater detail how a ship will use its resources to safely and effectively sail to a new destination. Similarly, CNO's Navigation Plan describes how Navy's budget submission for Fiscal Year (FY) 2014 - 2018 pursues the vision of the CNO's Sailing Directions. It highlights our investments that support the missions outlined in our defense strategic guidance (DSG), Sustaining U.S. Leadership: Priorities for 21st Century Defense, viewed through the lens of my three tenets: Warfighting First, Operate Forward, and Be Ready. This Navigation Plan defines the course and speed we will follow to organize, train, and equip our Navy over the next several years."

Information Dominance Corps: What Does it Mean to Me?
From the text: "I'm writing to you on this topic to address a question I am consistently asked by members of the 'Corps' on my various road trips. The question usually takes one of these forms: [1] 'What does the establishment of the IDC [Information Dominance Corps] mean to me?' [2] 'What impact will the IDC have on my career?' [3] 'What must I do to be successful in my community and in the IDC?' While I can't put myself directly in your shoes, I can share with you my personal thoughts, as well as those collected from other Navy and IDC leaders, on what these changes may mean for you and your career."

Chief of Naval Operations: Memorandum with Enclosures 'Report on the Collision between USS FITZGERALD (DDG 62) and Motor Vessel ACX CRYSTAL' and 'Report on the Collision between USS JOHN S MCCAIN (DDG 56) and Motor Vessel ALNIC MC'
"The collisions were avoidable between USS FITZGERALD (DDG 62) and Motor Vessel ACX CRYSTAL, and between USS JOHN S MCCAIN (DDG 56) and Motor Vessel ALNIC MC. Three U.S. Navy investigations concerning each of these incidents are complete. Command and Admiralty investigations in each case retain legal privilege to protect the interests of the United States Government in future litigation. The third investigation for each incident, termed the Line of Duty Investigation (LODI), is not under legal privilege as its purpose is to determine that Sailors perished in the line of duty and thus enable their beneficiaries to receive appropriate compensation. Collisions at sea between U.S. registered vessels and foreign registered vessels are also subject to an additional investigation, a Marine Casualty Investigation, conducted independently on behalf of the National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) by the United States Coast Guard (USCG). These investigations are ongoing in each case the results of each will be published by the NTSB when complete. As Chief of Naval Operations, I have determined to retain the legal privilege that exists with the command Admiralty investigations in order to protect the legal interests of the United States Government and the families of those Sailors who perished. At the same time, it is paramount that the Navy be transparent as to the causes and lessons learned to the families of those Sailors, the Congress and the American people, and to make every effort to ensure these types of tragedies do not happen again. With these competing interests at hand, I authorized the preparation and release of reports on each collision, enclosed with this memorandum."

Commander's Handbook on the Law of Naval Operations
"This publication sets out those fundamental principles of international and domestic law that govern U.S. naval operations at sea. Chapters 1 through 4 relate to peacetime naval operations. They provide an overview and general discussion of the law of the sea, including definitions and descriptions of the jurisdiction and sovereignty exercised by States over various parts of the world's oceans; the international legal status and navigational rights of warships and military aircraft; protection of persons and property at sea; and the safeguarding of national interests in the maritime environment. Chapters 5 through 12 relate to naval warfare. They set out principles of law of special concern to the naval commander during any period in which U.S. naval forces are engaged in armed conflict. Although the primary emphasis of these chapters is on the conduct of naval warfare, relevant principles and concepts common to the whole of the law of war are also discussed."

Navy Civilian Workforce Framework
From the Introduction: "This Framework is the first step toward identifying what we as a Navy can do to strengthen our civilian workforce, and by extension the Navy Team as a whole. This is an opportunity we cannot afford to miss. Navy civilians offer unique technical expertise, continuity of knowledge and experience, and diversity of thought and perspective. We must fully leverage those contributions in order to succeed in our mission. The full plan to strengthen our Navy civilian workforce will be outlined in this Framework, and will be further developed by more specific strategies that specify the actions each command within the Navy will take to meet the objectives outlined below. All of these efforts will be overseen by a Civilian Workforce Advisory Board to drive alignment and accountability, and to ensure we learn rapidly as we take a more deliberate approach to strengthening this key element of the Team. This Framework lays out our institutional obligations to the civilians who chose to join our Team, and the expectations we have in return. The aim is that the Framework further strengthens the bonds within our Team, setting the conditions for maintaining maritime superiority."

U.S. Navy Arctic Roadmap 2014-2030
"This update of the 2009 Navy Arctic Roadmap provides guidance necessary to prepare the Navy to respond effectively to future Arctic Region contingencies, delineates the Navy's leadership role, and articulates the Navy's support to achieve national priorities in the Region. Navy functions in the Arctic Region are no different from those in other maritime regions; however, the Arctic Region environment makes the execution of many of these functions much more challenging. This Roadmap outlines the Navy's strategic approach for the Arctic Region and the ways and means to achieve the desired national end-state. Resource constraints and competing near-term mission demands require that naval investments be informed, focused, and deliberate. Proactive planning today allows the Navy to prepare its forces for Arctic Region operations. The Roadmap emphasizes low-cost, long-lead activities that position the Navy to meet future demands. The Roadmap provides direction to the Navy for the near-term (present-2020), mid-term (2020-2030), and far-term (beyond 2030), placing particular emphasis on near-term actions necessary to enhance the Navy's ability to operate in the Arctic Region in the future. In the near- to mid-term, the Navy will concentrate on improving operational capabilities, expertise, and capacity, extending reach, and will leverage interagency and international partners to achieve its strategic objectives. In the mid-term, the Navy will provide support to the Combatant Commanders, U.S. Coast Guard, and other U.S. Government agencies. In the far-term, increased periods of ice-free conditions could require the Navy to expand this support on a more routine basis. Throughout these timeframes, the Navy will continue to develop and enhance cooperative relationships across the Department of Defense, U.S. Government agencies, industry, and international allies and partners."

Design for Maintaining Maritime Superiority, Version 1.0
"For 240 years, the U.S. Navy has been a cornerstone of American security and prosperity.
To continue to meet this obligation, we must adapt to the emerging security environment.
The initiatives laid out in this Design represent initial steps along a future course
to achieve the aims articulated in the Revised Cooperative Strategy for the 21st Century
(CS-21R) in this new environment. It's a tremendously complex challenge. As we get
underway, we must first understand our history - how we got to where we are. Moving
forward, we'll respect that we won't get it all right, and so we'll monitor and assess ourselves
and our surroundings as we go. We'll learn and adapt, always getting better, striving
to the limits of performance. This cannot be a 'top-down' effort; everybody must
contribute."

This 2011 Chief of Naval Operations Guidance for executing the maritime strategy outlines the vision and goals of the Navy. From the document: "We continue to be a ready and capable global Navy. As I look to the future, I see continued disorder in the global security environment, a slow economic recovery, and increasing demand on our Navy. While we have made sound investments in recent budgets to close warfighting and readiness gaps and support our people, the cost to man, operate, and equip our force has never been greater and continues to rise. Our national security remains closely linked to our economy, and in the coming year, we will continue to take bold steps to improve the efficiency of our operations and the effectiveness of our warfighting capability and capacity. My guidance for this year reaffirms my three focus areas to build the future force, maintain our warfighting readiness, and develop and support our Sailors, Navy civilians, and their families."
