Proliferation and Nonproliferation in Ukraine: Implications for European and U.S. Security
Limiting nuclear proliferation is a vital goal of U.S. security policy. With this in mind, the Strategic Studies Institute cosponsored a conference at the University of Pittsburgh on March 16-17, 1994 to deal with the issues involved in achieving this objective. An additional U.S. objective is the stabilization of relationships among the members of the Commonwealth of Independent States. These two issues come together in Ukraine which, upon achieving independence, found itself in possession of nuclear missiles that were positioned in the former Soviet Union and on Ukraine's territory. Ukraine was reluctant to relinquish control of them for security reasons. This monograph, presented at the conference, seeks to explain why Ukraine originally sought to retain the weapons and then, in 1994, agreed to dismantle them in return for compensation and the very limited security guarantees that exist under the 1968 Non-Proliferation Treaty. The author also examines the nature of Russia's threat to Ukraine and the implications of the new agreement for U.S. policy vis-a-vis Ukraine and Russia.

Defining the Organizational Culture of the Fairborn Fire Department
"In an effort to begin a teambuilding and organizational development program, organizational culture, an important but often overlooked component of the Fairborn Fire Department, was identified for study. This research project will provide insight into the organizational culture of the Fairborn Fire Department, and provide methodology for organizational development and change. The problem that this research project will address is that attempts at organizational development and teambuilding have not been successful due to a failure to thoroughly understand the needs, beliefs, values, and perceptions of the members of the fire department. The overall purpose is to identify the organizational culture, define the strengths and weaknesses, and provide recommendations for methodology of organizational change, teambuilding, and resolution of cultural conflict. The research required the use of both historical and descriptive methodologies. The research questions were 1. What are the strengths and weaknesses within the Fairborn Fire Department that have the greatest impact on its present organizational culture? 2. What are the elements of the organizational culture within the Fairborn Fire Department? 3. How can the organizational culture be defined?"

1993 Toxic Chemical Release Inventory: Emergency Planning and Community Right-To-Know Act of 1986, Section 313
"Section 313 of the Emergency Planning and Community Right-To-Know-Act of 1986 (EPCRA) requires the annual submittal of toxic chemical release information to the US Environmental Protection Agency. The following document is the July 1994 submittal of the Hanford site EPCRA Toxic Chemical Release Inventory (TRI) Report. Included is a Form R for chlorine, the sole chemical used in excess of the established regulatory thresholds at the Hanford Site by the US Department of Energy, Richland Operations Office and its contractors during Calendar Year 1993. Only those facilities that fall within the Standard Industrial Classification (SIC) code range of 20 through 39 are subject to mandatory reporting under EPCRA, Section 313. However, on August 3, 1993, Executive Order 12856 was signed, requiring all federal agencies and facilities to comply with pollution prevention and emergency planning and community right-to-know provisions established by Section 313 of EPCRA and Section 6607 of the Pollution Prevention Act of 1990, without restriction to the specified SIC Codes. The report format requires identification of the facility SIC Code in the TRI Report. Application of definitions and requirements provided in Title 40, Code of Federal Regulations Part 372.22 has led to the adoption of SIC Code 9999, Nonclassifiable Establishments, as the primary Hanford Site SIC Code for EPCRA regulatory assessments. The SIC Code 9999 determination is based on a broad analysis of the current mission of the Hanford Site which includes environmental and waste management, demonstration and application of advanced remediation technologies, and environmental restoration."

Border Patrol Strategic Plan 1994 and Beyond: National Strategy
"The mission of the United States Border Patrol is to secure and protect the external boundaries of the United States, preventing illegal entry and detecting, interdicting and apprehending undocumented entrants, smugglers, contraband, and violators of other laws. […] The Border Patrol will improve control of the border by implementing a strategy of 'prevention through deterrence.' The Border Patrol will achieve the goals of its strategy by bringing a decisive number of enforcement resources to bear in each major entry corridor. The Border Patrol will increase the number of agents on the line and make effective use of technology, raising the risk of apprehension high enough to be an effective deterrent. Because the deterrent effect of apprehensions does not become effective in stopping the flow until apprehensions approach 100 percent of those attempting entry, the strategic objective is to maximize the apprehension rate. Although a 100 percent apprehension rate is an unrealistic goal, we believe we can achieve a rate of apprehensions sufficiently high to raise the risk of apprehension to the point that many will consider it futile to continue to attempt illegal entry."

National Security Strategy of Engagement and Enlargement [1994]
From the Document: "This report, submitted in accordance with Section 603 of the Goldwater-Nichols Defense Department Reorganization Act of 1986, elaborates a new national security strategy for this new era. Focusing on new threats and new opportunities, its central goals are: to credibly sustain our security with military forces that are ready to fight; to bolster America's economic revitalization, and; to promote democracy abroad. Over the past seventeen months, my Administration has worked to pursue these goals. This national security strategy report presents the strategy that has guided this effort. It is premised on a belief that the line between our domestic and foreign policies has increasingly disappeared - that we must revitalize our economy if we are to sustain our military forces, foreign initiatives and global influence, and that we must engage actively abroad if we are to open foreign markets and create jobs for our people."

Explaining Weapons Proliferation: Going Beyond the Security Dilemma
This report considers the crucial issue of weapons proliferation by addressing a question of serious debate in the international community: what causes states to acquire weapons of mass destruction? Why do states become proliferators? By summarizing the findings of three cases examined in his group's effort of last year, Captain Rattray sheds light on possible answers to this question, with implications for US and USAF policy. Taking a comparative, regionally-based approach, the report highlights the key findings of a major INSS research project undertaken in 1993. It concludes that the US must look beyond the security dilemma in trying to understand the motivations behind proliferation, especially in emerging democracies. Along the same lines, the US should also consider a wide range of policy tools, to include economic and technological assistance, in attempting to influence proliferation outcomes.

Use and Abuse of Police Powers: Law Enforcement Practices and the Minority Community in New Jersey
"The public is often angered by allegations that police officers use excessive or fatal force and are not held accountable for their actions. This report by the New Jersey Advisory Committee was prompted by one such case in Teaneck, New Jersey, involving a white police officer and a black youth, who was killed while fleeing arrest. The incident precipitated a civil disturbance and a string of local protest demonstrations against police abuse, lasting more than a year. The Committee learned that minority community leaders were very concerned about law enforcement practices as they affected minority groups across the State. Based on a 1991 forum and monitoring through June 1992, this report profiles law enforcement policies and procedures related to police brutality in New Jersey. Its conclusions and recommendations stem from the Committee's view that volatile incidents will be better handled and community tensions lessened when complaints of police bias are reviewed by civilian boards. The Committee also points to the need for mandatory police officer training to improve the quality of law enforcement services."

Peacekeeping in Somalia
"The U.N. Security Council adopted Resolution 794 on December 3, 1992. The Resolution state that 'the situation in Somalia constitutes a threat to international peace security' and authorized Member States to use all necessary means to establish a secure environment for humanitarian relief. During the same month, the United States deployed troops assigned to the 10th Mountain Division to Somalia. This report describes findings from questionnaires and interviews involving 518 Somalia veterans at Fort Drum, New York. The Somalia peacekeeping mission is unique because it started as a humanitarian mission and evolved into combat. Information gathered about the mission may afford valuable opportunities to improve the effectiveness of future peacekeeping doctrine, force development and training. Results of individual interviews and questionnaires show general discontent with the mission, although most soldiers expressed the opinion that the U.S. Army performed well in Somalia."

Sharing the Challenge: Floodplain Management into the 21st Century
"The Midwest Flood of 1993 was a significant hydro-meteorological event. Flood flows similar to those experienced by most of the Midwest can occur at any time. During the decade ending in 1993, average annual flood damages in the United States exceed $3 billion. Flood damages are a national problem. Excessive rainfall, which produced standing water, saturated soils, and overland flow, caused major damages to upland agriculture and some communities. In turn, runoff from this rainfall created, throughout tie basin, flood events that became a part of the nation's 1993 TV experience. Damages overall were extensive: between $12 billion and $16 billion that can be counted, and a large amount in unquantifiable impacts on the health and well-being of the population of the Midwest. Human activities in the floodplains of the Midwest over the last three centuries have placed people and property at risk. Local and federal flood damage reduction projects were constructed to minimize the annual risk, and, during the 1993 flood, prevented nearly $20 billion in damages. Some of these programs, however, attracted people to high risk areas and created greater exposure to future damages. In addition, flood control, navigation, and agricultural activities severely reduced available floodplain habitat and compromised natural functions upon which fish and wildlife rely. Over the last30 yearn the nation has learned that effective floodplain management can reduce vulnerability to damages and create a balance among natural and human uses of floodplains and their related watersheds meet both social and environmental goals."

Unity of Command and Interdiction
"The cover of Joint Publication 1, Joint Warfare of the U.S. Armed Forces, says, 'Joint Warfare is Team Warfare.' Inside the publication, an Air Force officer observed, 'Now I know that real jointness means attacking the right target at the right time.' The quote makes joint warfare sound like a simple matter, one that the U.S. military has well in hand. Although the services have made great progress over the last decade or so, Unity of Command and Interdiction highlights an area where there is still a great deal of work remaining. The Army and Air Force have been at odds about how to fight together where their missions overlap the most. Beyond the front lines 30 to approximately 200 kilometers is a gray area where Army deep operations and Air Force interdiction overlap. They often address the same target sets and compete for the same weapons. Synchronizing interdiction and land maneuver is not a new problem, but several new twists are complicating the matter even more. Army doctrine calls for fast-paced and deep maneuver, supported by attack helicopters and artillery. Army artillery ranges have increased over fivefold with rockets and missiles: at the same time technological advances dramatically improved interdiction capabilities. Tactical ballistic missile and the proliferation of weapons of mass destruction are other pieces of a very difficult battlefield puzzle. Unity of command is essential to success for both services."

Executive Order 12923: Continuation of Export Control Regulations
"By the authority vested in me as President by the Constitution and the laws of the United States of America, including but not limited to section 203 of the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (''Act'') (50 U.S.C. 1702), I, WILLIAM J. CLINTON, President of the United States of America, find that the unrestricted access of foreign parties to U.S. goods, technology, and technical data and the existence of certain boycott practices of foreign nations, in light of the expiration of the Export Administration Act of 1979, as amended (50 U.S.C. App. 2401 et seq. ), constitute an unusual and extraordinary threat to the national security, foreign policy, and economy of the United States and hereby declare a national emergency with respect to that threat."

Turning Multiple Evaluated Products into Trusted Systems
This paper discusses how evaluated products can be combined to produce trusted
systems which meet the requirements specified in a procurement document, thereby
modifying, adapting, or eliminating portions of the composing product's TCB.
Frequently, the requirements specified necessitate changes to the product TCBs.
Because the product's rating may be invalidated when the product's TCB is changed without understanding, justification, and review; system-level assurances are necessary to compensate for the changes. It is the responsibility of the system integrator/system designer to do the utmost to retain and not invalidate the product rating. However, even with this possible invalidation, the use of an evaluated product in a system provides the knowledge that the original product was scrutinized, and those portions of the product that are not changed continue to retain that scrutiny for the correctness of processing. Therefore, even if a product's TCB
must be modified, adapted, or portions eliminated, the use of an evaluated product in a system development is advantageous over the use of a non-evaluated product for the similar functionality. The combination of unequal security qualified components to build a system is another dilemma in the integration process which will not be discussed in this paper.

Research Paper: Illegal Mexican Migration and the United States/Mexico Border: The Effects of Operation Hold the Line on El Paso/Juárez
On September 19, 1993, Silvestre Reyes, the Chief of the El Paso Sector of the Border Patrol of the U.S. Immigration and Naturalization Service [INS], launched Operation Blockade along a twenty-mile stretch of the U.S./Mexico border between El Paso and Juárez. Renamed Operation Hold the Line three weeks later, the initiative represented an effort to cut off illegal migration from Mexico into El Paso. This examination of Operation Hold the Line seeks to assess its effects on both illegal and legal crossings, as well as to discern the implications of various policy options concerning both legal and illegal immigration and non-immigrant crossings at the U.S. / Mexico border. Methodologically, this research relies on both quantitative and qualitative evidence to develop an assessment of the Operation. The paper is organized into nine chapters. After the introduction, the second chapter describes Operation Hold the Line. The third examines evidence about the curtailment of flows as indicated by border crossing and apprehensions data. The fourth examines effects on business and economic activity, and the fifth analyzes effects on education, births, and social services. The sixth presents an examination of the effects of the Operation on crime rates and other indicators of illegal or disruptive behaviors. The seventh details effects on community and public opinion. The eighth focuses on the Operation's consequences for Juárez and the people living there. The final chapter provides an overall assessment of the Operation's effects, together with discussion of the implications of the study's findings for immigration and border crossing issues.

Terror 2000: The Future Face of Terrorism
"Each year the Department of Defense convenes its Worldwide Combatting Terrorism Conference in order to review the nature and level of terrorist activity around the globe. The purpose is to identify changing motives, tactics and targets so our government may better defend our interests and those of our friends and allies. The fifth annual conference, held in June 1993, was somewhat different. This time the focus was not on the immediate future, but included an examination of the long-term threat. Participation which traditionally had been limited to preeminent intelligence, military, political and academic specialists from around the world was broadened to include leading futurists. This elite group was given two assignments. First, they must forecast, to the best of their ability, the course of terrorism for the next fifteen years. Then on the basis of their projections, they would help craft policies, strategies and tactics by suggesting courses of action and specific initiatives to meet the developing threat as they foresaw it. There would be no sacred cows. All aspects of America's policy for combatting terrorism would be on the table for examination and discussion. It was decided that a study would be prepared to apprise the government and the public of the conference findings and of subsequent research that would focus on the long-term terrorist threat and what must be done to meet the challenge. The object would be to stimulate discussion and examination by providing a provocative, unconstrained and independent point of view rather than a coordinated, homogenized distillation of current thinking."

Regional Deterrence Ship Design
"A systems engineering approach to the development of a warship optimized for the deterrence of regional conflicts in littoral waters is presented, followed by a description of the preliminary design of the ship shown by analysis to be most effective. The requirement for the project reported was to develop a ship which would be effective in deterring regional wars among third world nations; in hampering the military effectiveness of the aggressor should deterrence fail and in protecting or evacuating limited numbers of civilians. The study reports on an analysis of likely threat weapons, on the means used to choose defensive combat system capabilities to defeat such weapons and on the selection of capabilities necessary for successful operation in littoral waters. Major emphasis is placed on measures intended to significantly improve the ship's survivability relative to existing combatants. The design description includes data and numerous drawings.

Department of State Action Memorandum: Implementing the President's Decision on Colombia Peru Forcedown Policies
On June 21, President Clinton made a decision to propose language in the National Defense Authorization Act of 1995 that would amend the law prohibiting the sharing of real-time intelligence with Colombia and Peru to allow for the shoot down of suspected drug smuggling planes if appropriate procedures are in place to protect innocent aircraft and "the President has determined that such actions are necessary because of the threat posed by drug trafficking to the national security of that country." This document recommends a three-step policy for the short-term renewal of aerial tracking assistance to Colombia and Peru to cover the period before Congress has adopted the new language. Step one would seek to convince Peru and Colombia to agree to certain restrictions on the use of real-time intelligence until the U.S. legislation can be modified to accommodate the shoot down policy. Step two would encourage the two governments to comply with international law, perhaps by declaring a "national emergency" as permitted under the relevant conventions. The third stop contemplates a campaign to convince nations deemed "aviation partners" to accept a "narrow exception" to international law in cases where "drug trafficking threatens the political institutions of a state and where the country imposes strict procedures to reduce the risk of attack against non-drug trafficking aircraft."

Applicability of 18 U.S.C. § 208 to Proposed Appointment of Government Official to the Board of Connie Lee: Memorandum Opinion for the Assistant General Counsel, Department of the Treasury [June 22, 1994]
"This memorandum is in response to your request of May 23, 1994, for an opinion as to whether the Deputy Assistant Secretary, if appointed to the Board of Directors of the College Construction Loan Insurance Association ('Connie Lee'), would be subject to the requirements imposed by 18 U.S.C. § 208 on 'directors' of outside organizations. We have concluded that if appointed, the Deputy Assistant Secretary would be a 'director' of an outside organization within the meaning of § 208, and accordingly would have to comply with the provisions of that section in discharging his or her government duties. This conclusion does not preclude the appointment of the Deputy Assistant Secretary or another Treasury official to the board of Connie Lee. Rather, it means that if appointed, the official could not participate in any particular matter in his or her government capacity in which Connie Lee had a financial interest, unless he or she received a waiver issued pursuant to § 208(b)."

Conflict with Libya: Use of Military Force against Terrorism
"The United States attack on Libya on April 15, 1986 was the culmination of a series of developments in U.S. foreign policy and military strategy intended to combat international terrorism. It was the culmination of the U.S. attempt to use both nonmilitary and military methods to combat terrorism. This paper examines the use of military force as an appropriate means to combat terrorism. In particular, the 1986 conflict with Libya is examined concentrating on the following aspects: whether operational level objectives contributed to achievement of strategic goals; and the use of military force as an effective instrument in the war against terrorism. This paper concludes that the use of military force (along with the European nonmilitary responses) was an effective instrument in the war against terrorism as measured by the decrease in Libyan sponsored attacks from 1986 to 1991. However, the U.S. attack on Libya is still an isolated event and does not provide a sufficient basis for a doctrine of military retaliation against terrorism."

"This study reviews the national strategy under the Bush Administration, the emerging national strategy under President Clinton and DoD's implementation in the Latin American region. A discussion of the impact on Southern Command (SOUTHCOM) follows with regard to budget, affected programs and theater strategic objectives. Possible implications for the future of this region and the impact on U.S. national security interests are addressed. The study suggests that the drug problem is a long term commitment requiring U.S. support throughout the source-transit-demand spectrum. The U.S. must continue to provide with the necessary resources through a multi-lateral approach because the trafficker has no regard for international borders."

Colonels' Revolt: Eisenhower, The Army, and The Politics of National Security
This paper reviews the budgetary politics and inter-service rivalries involved in the formulation of President Dwight D. Eisenhower's defense policies. Specifically, the paper chronicles the reaction of the U.S. Army General Staff to proposals to greatly increase U.S. reliance on strategic air power at the expense of Army force structure and modernization. The impact of The Revolt on joint policy making in general and Cold War defense policies in particular is chronicled. The paper concludes with a discussion of the lessons of The Revolt for those who make strategy and defense policy. While the Revolt had little immediate impact on defense planning, it was part of a larger series of events that culminated in the Goldwater-Nichols Act and other reforms in the Department of Defense budget process and in Joint Service planning and operations.
