homeland defense HD to include threats policy and legal considerations active layered defense and the HD operational framework • Describes command relationships and interorganizational cooperation in HD • Outlines strategic guidance operational factors intelligence sharing and joint functions considerations for planning and operations for homeland defense Fundamentals of Homeland Defense The United States Government USG employs all instruments of national power to continuously detect deter prevent and defeat threats to the homeland This national imperative translates operationally into homeland security HS defense support of civil authorities DSCA and homeland defense HD The Department of Defense DOD is the lead federal agency LFA for defending against traditional external threats or aggression e g nation-state conventional forces or weapons of mass destruction attack and against external asymmetric threats that are outside of the scope of HS operations The Department of Homeland Security DHS is the LFA for HS and the United States Coast Guard USCG is the LFA for maritime homeland security MHS By law DOD is responsible for two missions in the homeland DSCA and HD HD is the protection of US sovereignty territory domestic population and critical infrastructure against external threats and aggression or other threats as directed by the President of the US DOD executes HD by detecting deterring preventing and defeating threats from actors of concern as far forward from the homeland as possible HD is executed across the active layered defense construct composed of the forward regions the approaches and the homeland Commander United States Northern Command CDRUSNORTHCOM and Commander United vii Executive Summary States Pacific Command CDRUSPACOM are the supported commanders for HD in their respective areas of responsibility AORs with all other combatant commanders CCDRs as supporting commanders Threats The homeland is confronted by a variety of both disparate and interrelated threats that demand coordinated procedures and synchronized efforts among interagency partners responsible for law enforcement and national defense particularly those who have overlapping roles responsibilities authorities and capabilities Homeland Defense HD Policy and Legal Considerations When conducted domestically certain intelligence activities military information support operations rules of engagement ROE and rules for the use of force RUF have specific limitations applications and legal considerations Active Layered Defense Defending the homeland neither begins nor ends at US borders so DOD planning is guided by the construct of an active layered defense—a global defense that aims to deter and defeat aggression abroad and simultaneously protect the homeland It is a defense-in-depth that relies on collection analysis and sharing of information and intelligence strategic and regional deterrence military presence in forward regions and the ability to rapidly generate and project warfighting capabilities to defend the US its allies and its interests This defense strategy integrates US capabilities in the forward regions of the world in the geographic approaches to US territory and within the US homeland The HD Operational Framework The HD operational framework includes the plans and actions taken to detect deter prevent shape and defeat threats and aggression against the homeland The purpose of HD is to protect against incursions or attacks on sovereign US territory the domestic population and critical infrastructure and key resources as directed viii JP 3-27 Executive Summary Command Relationships and Interorganizational Cooperation Virtually all the strategic threats to the homeland in United States Northern Command USNORTHCOM and United States Pacific Command USPACOM AORs are based in the AORs of other geographic combatant commanders GCCs This requires command relationships for a collaborative federated architecture for targeting by USNORTHCOM and USPACOM with the Joint Staff J-2 Intelligence Directorate the intelligence directorates of the combatant commands the National Joint Operations and Intelligence Center and other supporting CCDRs especially those supporting GCCs in whose AORs those strategic threats reside Unified Action Unified action is the synchronization coordination and or integration of the activities of governmental and nongovernmental entities with military operations to achieve unity of effort In HD this includes interaction with joint single-Service and multinational operations with the activities of other interagency partners nongovernmental organizations NGOs international organizations and the private sector to achieve unity of effort Command and Control Relationships and Responsibilities As stipulated in the Unified Command Plan UCP CDRUSNORTHCOM and CDRUSPACOM have specified tasks for HD activities They are responsible for planning organizing and executing HD operations within their respective AORs Other CCDRs support them and contribute to the protection of the US homeland either through actions within their own AORs forward regions and approaches or through global responsibilities assigned in the UCP Geographic Combatant Commander Responsibilities Functional Combatant Commander Responsibilities Commander United States Strategic Command CDRUSSTRATCOM is the lead CCDR for strategic deterrence planning and executes strategic deterrence operations as directed US Cyber Command can support HD cyberspace operations CO in collaboration with USNORTHCOM USPACOM and DHS by coordinating activities within the required AOR ix Executive Summary and assisting with expertise and capabilities directed and made available For operations conducted in the homeland Commander US Special Operations Command serves as either a supported or supporting commander for selected counterterrorism activities and serves as a supporting commander to the GCCs with geographic HD responsibilities within their respective AORs For HD operations Commander US Transportation Command provides upon request a director of mobility forces to advise on air mobility support operations Interagency Coordination HD operations are conducted in a complex operational environment OE that contains thousands of different jurisdictions federal state tribal and local many agencies and organizations the private sector and several allies and multinational partners From a USG perspective this necessitates coordinated and integrated activities that have been previously exercised rehearsed to facilitate effective interagency interoperability in addition to unity of effort Coordination should be conducted through the defense coordinating officer defense coordinating element of the affected region The inherent interrelationships between HS HD and DSCA and the potential for transition between those missions creates a dynamic and complex environment in which interorganizational coordination and resulting interoperability could prove critical From a DOD perspective understanding and executing the multiple command relationships and organizational relationships required for simultaneous execution of HS HD and DSCA requires the utmost in interagency coordination Interorganizational Cooperation Considerations HD mission response forces involve multiple organizations Operation NOBLE EAGLE the North American Aerospace Defense Command NORAD USNORTHCOM and USPACOM operation aimed at defending the homeland involves active duty personnel from the US Air Force US Navy the Canadian Forces and National Guard members federalized for the x JP 3-27 Executive Summary mission These military forces coordinate with Department of Transportation Federal Aviation Administration DHS the Department of Justice and other USG departments and agencies Multinational Forces To conduct the full range of HD operations CCDRs should consider multinational and nonmilitary organizations When a response force resides within an alliance the procedures and structure of that alliance will normally determine the operational-level leadership When a response force is based in a coalition or a lead-nation structure in an alliance the designated lead nation or other leadership mechanism will normally select the operational-level leadership While the President and Secretary of Defense retain command authority over US forces it is often prudent or advantageous to place appropriate US forces under the tactical control of a foreign commander for reasons such as maximizing military effectiveness and ensuring unity of effort Planning and Operations for Homeland Defense Strategic Guidance General strategy is provided in high-level policy documents such as the National Security Strategy Defense Strategy Review and the National Military Strategy NMS Similarly high-level planning guidance is provided in the UCP Guidance for Employment of the Force and Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Instruction 3110 01 U Joint Strategic Capabilities Plan JSCP Planning architecture is provided in Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Manual 3130 03 Adaptive Planning and Execution Formats and Guidance Operational Factors Regardless of the size and scope of the particular operations inevitably they will involve multiple jurisdictions such as cities counties regions tribes and states Managing such relationships will require significant time and effort on the part of federal state local and tribal authorities to ensure proper coordination Civil and Military Relationships xi Executive Summary Commander’s Communication Synchronization and Public Affairs Joint force commanders JFCs are required to include communication goals and objectives in the commander’s intent and to have a communication approach that ensures unity of themes objectives and messages among key activities consistency in intent or effect between command operations actions and information and a risk assessment of the information that may reach unintended audiences create unintended consequences and require risk mitigation measures Non-Department of Defense Federal State Territorial Local and Tribal Planning Factors Interorganizational cooperation must occur between elements of DOD and non-DOD federal state local and tribal agencies as well as other participating USG departments and agencies for the purpose of achieving HD objectives Legal Considerations Military operations inside the homeland can present unique and complex legal issues Certain military functions e g intelligence operations ROE and RUF have specific applications and legal implications when conducted domestically Coordination with the servicing office of the staff judge advocate for legal advice should be as early in the operation planning process as possible Intelligence Sharing for HD The success of interorganizational cooperation in HD operations hinges upon timely and accurate information and intelligence Information sharing environments should include as many essential participants as possible understanding that not all are capable of participating in a collaborative environment When possible a collaborative intelligence sharing environment should be capable of generating and moving intelligence operational information and orders where needed in the shortest possible time Joint Fires Joint fires may be provided to assist air land maritime or special operations forces in conducting HD activities within an OE framed by complex legal authorities and significant interagency coordination Although major operations against an enemy in the US remain highly unlikely various threats require capabilities and preparations to deter or defeat them For that xii JP 3-27 Executive Summary reason the supported JFCs for HD have plans orders for HD operations that anticipate the use of joint fires across the range of military operations Movement and Maneuver in the Conduct of HD Land Operations in the Conduct of HD HD land defense actions may include movement and maneuver fires for lethal and nonlethal effects closing with and destroying an enemy sustaining a joint force and setting conditions for a return to peace Specific HD land operations in support of HD may include security operations through force protection FP tasks or critical infrastructure protection CIP Defensive land operations will make use of existing USG departments’ and agencies’ capabilities where possible e g DHS Maritime Operations in the Conduct of HD Maritime operations in support of HD offer distinct challenges due to the nature of execution in or near the homeland in conjunction with interagency partners DOD is the LFA for maritime HD and the USCG is the LFA for MHS Through the relevant CCDR DOD provides an active layered defense supports USCG MHS operations with DOD forces capabilities and defeats maritime threats to the homeland beyond the scope of MHS Where coordination under the maritime operational threat response plan is required issues such as designation of lead and supporting agencies desired national outcome required capabilities asset availability and authority to act must be determined Air Operations in HD Operations NORAD is assigned the mission of aerospace control including air sovereignty and air defense of the airspace of the US and Canada NORAD routinely maintains forces on alert for homeland air defense cruise missile defense and aerospace control alert missions against long-range incursions Space Operations in the Conduct of HD To deter or preempt attacks and to protect military space assets DOD conducts space operations in support of HD These activities may serve to protect and defend the US’s ability to operate in and through space CDRUSSTRATCOM is the supported commander for protecting and xiii Executive Summary defending the right to operate in space and is responsible for identifying assessing and securing DOD critical assets in space Cyberspace Operations in the Conduct of HD The NMS for CO addresses three main roles defense of the nation national incident response and CIP GCCs with geographic HD responsibilities should ensure unified action at the theater level for CO This includes coordinating with multinational and interagency partners as outlined in strategy policy and agreements Information Operations in the Conduct of HD Information operations IO complements HD movement and maneuver in all domains by generating effects in the information environment that give the JFC a decisive advantage in any and all of its dimensions physical informational and cognitive IO also plays a significant role in the JFC’s communication synchronization Movement in Support of HD US Transportation Command can quickly assemble aircraft and flight crews for operations where expedited passenger movement is required Surface transportation commercial and organic can be a viable option in those situations where the distance between the home station and the operational area is relatively short Coordination with the National Guard Bureau is essential when using Air National Guard Army National Guard assets for support of HD In some instances state and federal forces may be in the same operational area Coordination between state and federal forces should occur to achieve unity of effort Protection The protection function focuses on conserving the joint force’s fighting potential in four primary ways active defensive measures passive defensive measures application of technology and procedures to reduce the risk of friendly fire and emergency management and response to reduce the loss of personnel and capabilities due to an all-hazards incident It includes but extends beyond FP to encompass protection of US noncombatants the forces systems and civil infrastructure of friendly nations and other USG xiv JP 3-27 Executive Summary departments and agencies organizations and NGOs Sustainment Personnel international The core functional responsibilities of the manpower and personnel directorate of a joint staff are accomplished during any HD or other operation and are tailored to meet mission-specific requirements Personnel Support The authorities and responsibilities for personnel support to HD operations are largely the same as those for any other DOD mission set Some exceptions may apply to the USNORTHCOM AOR Logistics The authorities and responsibilities for logistics operations in support of HD are largely the same as any other DOD mission set Some notable exceptions however apply to HD operations within the US More specifically the exceptions apply to the USNORTHCOM AOR Engineering Military engineering support may be required simultaneously for HD and DSCA operations The primary focus of the engineering effort will be to sustain and assist DOD forces employed in HD The secondary effort will be DSCA when requested and approved in accordance with DOD guidance and applicable plans Environmental Considerations Military commanders employ environmentally responsible practices that minimize adverse impacts to human health and the environment Plans will be developed to reduce or eliminate negative impacts on the environment and to minimize negative impacts to mission accomplishment caused by environmental degradation CONCLUSION This publication provides joint doctrine for HD xv Executive Summary Intentionally Blank JP 3-27 CHAPTER I FUNDAMENTALS OF HOMELAND DEFENSE “…the Secretary with the approval of the President and after consultation with the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff shall provide every two years or more frequently as needed to the Chairman written policy guidance for the preparation and review of contingency plans including plans for providing support to civil authorities in an incident of national significance or a catastrophic incident for homeland defense and for military support to civil authorities Such guidance shall include guidance on the employment of forces including specific force levels and specific supporting resource levels projected to be available for the period of time for which such plans are to be effective ” National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2017 1 General a The Homeland The US homeland is the physical region that includes the continental United States CONUS Alaska Hawaii US territories and surrounding territorial waters and airspace The United States Government USG employs all instruments of national power to continuously detect deter prevent and defeat threats to the homeland This national imperative translates operationally into homeland security HS defense support of civil authorities DSCA and homeland defense HD The Department of Defense DOD is the lead federal agency LFA for defending against traditional external threats or aggression e g nation-state conventional forces or weapons of mass destruction WMD attack and against external asymmetric threats that are outside of the scope of HS operations The Department of Homeland Security DHS is the LFA for HS and the United States Coast Guard USCG is the LFA for maritime homeland security MHS By law DOD is responsible for two missions in the homeland DSCA and HD b HS DSCA and HD operations and events may occur simultaneously and require extensive coordination integration and synchronization HS forms the foundation upon which the USG counters threats and hazards consistent with Presidential Policy Directive PPD -8 National Preparedness HS operations are constantly executed under legal authorities that enforce the rule of law at all levels of government in all areas subject to US jurisdiction including the homeland and its approaches DSCA and HD build upon the foundation of HS to counter the most sophisticated and or nation-state threats that either exceed the scope of HS capabilities or require use of DOD authorities to defeat threats to the homeland Considerations regarding simultaneous HS DSCA and HD operations are covered in more detail in Appendix A “Relationships Between Homeland Security Homeland Defense and Defense Support of Civil Authorities ” 1 HS is an integrated concept developed as a result of the 11 September 2001 attacks on the US The 2010 Quadrennial Homeland Security Review describes HS as the intersection of evolving threats and hazards with traditional governmental and civic responsibilities for civil defense emergency response law enforcement LE customs I-1 Chapter I border control and immigration In combining these responsibilities under one overarching concept HS breaks down longstanding stovepipes of activity that have been and could still be exploited by those seeking to cause harm HS is a widely distributed and diverse national enterprise comprised of the collective efforts and shared responsibilities of federal state local tribal territorial nongovernmental and private-sector partners individuals families and communities to maintain critical HS capabilities a DHS missions under the general concept of HS include the following 1 Prevent terrorism and enhance security 2 Secure and manage our borders 3 Enforce and administer our immigration laws 4 Safeguard and secure cyberspace 5 Strengthen national preparedness and resilience For more information on DHS missions see the 2014 Quadrennial Homeland Security Review at https www dhs gov quadrennial-homeland-security-review b DOD supports HS operations through DSCA and by providing DOD forces and capabilities to USCG MHS operations pursuant to the Memorandum of Agreement Between the Department of Defense and the Department of Homeland Security for Department of Defense Support to the United States Coast Guard for Maritime Homeland Security and applicable Secretary of Defense SecDef execute orders EXORDs c DOD may also be required to participate in emergency preparedness EP under the National Preparedness System EP includes measures taken in advance of an emergency to reduce the loss of life and property and to protect a nation’s institutions from all types of hazards through five preparedness mission areas under the National Response Framework NRF These five mission areas are prevention protection mitigation response and recovery EP is considered a part of DOD’s overall preparedness activities in support of the NRF NRF is not a stand-alone activity but is an integral part of DOD training mitigation and response for both HD and DSCA For more information on EP see PPD-8 National Preparedness and the National Response Framework at https www fema gov national-response-framework 2 DSCA is support provided by US federal military forces DOD civilians DOD contract personnel DOD component assets reserve and National Guard NG forces when SecDef in coordination with the governor s of the affected state s elect and request to use those forces under Title 32 United States Code USC Section 502 in response to requests for assistance from civil authorities for domestic emergencies LE support and other domestic activities or from qualifying entities for special events I-2 JP 3-27 Fundamentals of Homeland Defense For more information on DSCA see Joint Publication JP 3-28 Defense Support of Civil Authorities and Department of Defense Directive DODD 3025 18 Defense Support of Civil Authorities 3 HD is the protection of US sovereignty territory domestic population and critical infrastructure against external threats and aggression or other threats as directed by the President of the US a DOD executes HD by detecting deterring preventing and defeating threats from actors of concern as far forward from the homeland as possible DOD is responsible for the HD mission and leads the response with support from international partners and USG departments and agencies HD is executed across the active layered defense construct composed of the forward regions the approaches and the homeland Commander United States Northern Command CDRUSNORTHCOM and Commander United States Pacific Command CDRUSPACOM are the supported commanders for HD in their respective areas of responsibility AORs with all other combatant commanders CCDRs as supporting commanders CDRUSNORTHCOM and CDRUSPACOM are charged with specific responsibilities for HD and DSCA b CDRUSNORTHCOM is responsible for planning organizing and as directed executing HD operations within the United States Northern Command USNORTHCOM AOR in concert with missions performed by the North American Aerospace Defense Command NORAD c CDRUSPACOM is responsible for planning and as directed executing HD operations within the United States Pacific Command USPACOM AOR d All other CCDRs except Commander United States Transportation Command CDRUSTRANSCOM are responsible for detecting deterring and preventing attacks against the US its territories and bases and should deterrence fail employ appropriate forces to defend the nation in forward regions and within the approaches to the homeland c Within the homeland HD DSCA and HS require pre-event and ongoing coordination with interorganizational and multinational partners to integrate capabilities and facilitate unified action In this complex environment there are numerous threats across multiple jurisdictions i e federal state local and tribal that are addressed by a diverse group of actively involved stakeholders e g international organizations multinational partnerships nongovernmental organizations NGOs and the private sector DOD plans and prepares to operate in concert with other USG entities For example DOD operations may coincide with other actions to counter violent extremist threats such as those of a hijacked commercial aircraft or attempts to perpetrate attacks using WMD A coordinated approach to unified action promotes early identification of the desired USG objective s and subsequent coordination and collaboration with potential participants Guidance such as the Maritime Operational Threat Response MOTR Plan is an example of this approach to operations I-3 Chapter I For additional information see JP 3-08 Interorganizational Cooperation For information regarding interagency roles responsibilities and required coordination protocols for conduct of air defense and maritime security operations to counter threats to the US see the President-approved Aviation Operational Threat Response AOTR Plan and the MOTR Plan Specific guidance on interagency headquarters HQ planning and command center support of HD operations is contained in annex V Interagency Coordination of HD concept plans CONPLANs or operation plans OPLANs 2 Threats a HD should address all external threats and other threats as directed by the President to facilitate a broad-based defense-in-depth An external threat or aggression is an action incident or circumstance that originates from outside of the homeland Threats planned prompted promoted caused or executed by external actors may develop or take place inside the homeland The reference to external threats does not limit where or how attacks may be planned and executed The USG has sought to shape the international environment through the judicious application of diplomatic informational military and economic instruments of national power Given the persistent presence of both traditional nation-state and asymmetric threats a proactive comprehensive and disciplined approach to HD is required Additionally military operations conducted in the homeland require an in-depth understanding of laws policies and procedures because of overlapping jurisdictions and legal authorities on the use of military forces b The homeland is confronted by a variety of both disparate and interrelated threats that demand coordinated procedures and synchronized efforts among interagency partners responsible for LE and national defense particularly those who have overlapping roles responsibilities authorities and capabilities Transnational threats have proven to be complex and enduring A transnational threat is any activity individual or group not tied to a particular country or region that operates across international boundaries and threatens US national security or interests Figure I-1 lists various aspects of the transnational threats to the homeland c WMD Adversaries have and continue to seek WMD and the means to deliver them to enhance their influence and achieve greater strategic leverage against US advantages They may use the weapons to conduct an attack on US citizens infrastructure and other vital interests and to exploit US power projection sustainment and force protection FP vulnerabilities Increased access to technology materials and expertise heightens the risk that threats will develop proliferate and use WMD to achieve their goals See JP 3-40 Countering Weapons of Mass Destruction for more information on WMD I-4 JP 3-27 Fundamentals of Homeland Defense Homeland Defense Transnational Threat Environment  Increased capability for cyberspace operations against the United States Government Department of Defense and nations’ critical infrastructures  Continued desire of transnational terrorists to attack United States with variety of weapons and means including improvised explosive devices chemical biological radiological and nuclear CBRN weapons of mass destruction WMD  Continued proliferation of CBRN WMD capabilities  Ongoing rogue nation threats  Active transnational criminal organizations  Ongoing illegal immigration and potential special interest aliens  Presence of homegrown violent extremists  Continued traditional threats from nation-states including intercontinental ballistic missiles Figure I-1 Homeland Defense Transnational Threat Environment See JP 3-41 Chemical Biological Radiological and Nuclear Response for more information on DOD actions and capabilities to mitigate the effects of a chemical biological radiological and nuclear CBRN attack d Adversaries The joint force faces an increasingly complex global security environment characterized by contested norms and persistent disorder State and non-state adversaries seek to challenge the current international order by establishing new rules and norms that are unfavorable to our national interests Weak states are increasingly incapable of maintaining domestic order which permits other actors to employ violence in pursuit of their beliefs Conflicts are increasingly transregional multi-domain and multifunctional TMM as adversaries’ interests influence capabilities and reach extend beyond single geographic areas Additionally the threat from individual actors and homegrown violent extremists where an individual or small group of individuals executes attacks without any direct contact with a parent organization has increased These threats will continue to employ a variety of tactics in particular asymmetric employment of weapons platforms and information that could significantly affect not only the political-military balance but potentially more significantly the US economy and global trade 3 Homeland Defense Policy and Legal Considerations a Multiple documents provide guidance for conducting HD operations Specific planning factors requirements and objectives for HD operations are contained in plans associated with the HD mission b Special Considerations When conducted domestically certain intelligence activities military information support operations MISO rules of engagement ROE and rules for the use of force RUF have specific limitations applications and legal considerations Further ROE and RUF for domestic situations are often developed by less I-5 Chapter I institutionalized processes and can therefore potentially be less thorough and subjected to less rigor 1 Posse Comitatus Act PCA The PCA prohibits the use of the United States Army USA and United States Air Force USAF to participate in civilian LE within the homeland Title 10 USC also directs SecDef to promulgate regulations prohibiting members of the USA United States Navy USN USAF and United States Marine Corps USMC from providing direct assistance to civilian LE which was accomplished in Department of Defense Instruction DODI 3025 21 Defense Support of Civilian Law Enforcement Agencies HD is a Constitutional exception to the PCA Military operations conducted as HD are not LE activities and thus Title 10 USC forces are not subject to the restriction of the PCA Additionally several Act-of-Congress exceptions to the PCA permit the Armed Forces to support LE activities under other conditions The PCA does not apply to NG forces under Title 32 USC or state active duty status 2 Intelligence Activities Intelligence activities refer to all activities that DOD intelligence components are authorized to undertake in accordance with

engagement SROE apply to air and maritime HD missions conducted within the US its territories or territorial seas unless otherwise directed by SecDef Supplemental ROE may be necessary to meet mission-specific ROE requirements and are submitted by the appropriate commander See Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Instruction CJCSI 3121 01 U Standing Rules of Engagement Standing Rules for the Use of Force for US Forces for additional information b RUF are directives issued to guide US forces on the use of force during various operations The standing rules for the use of force SRUF apply to land HD missions occurring within US territory and to DOD forces civilians and contractors performing LE and security duties at all DOD installations and off-installation while conducting

found in USNORTHCOM OPORD Operation Order 01-13 4 Active Layered Defense a Defending the homeland neither begins nor ends at US borders so DOD planning is guided by the construct of an active layered defense—a global defense that aims to deter and defeat aggression abroad and simultaneously protect the homeland It is a defense-indepth that relies on collection analysis and sharing of information and intelligence strategic and regional deterrence military presence in forward regions and the ability to rapidly generate and project warfighting capabilities to defend the US its allies and its interests This defense strategy integrates US capabilities in the forward regions of the world in the geographic approaches to US territory and within the US homeland b The Forward Regions In the forward regions outside US territories the objective is to detect prevent shape or when necessary defeat threats to the US Actions may include combat operations security cooperation military engagement activities peace operations intelligence operations or preemptive measures such as direct action missions cyberspace operations CO or global strike c The Approaches The approaches extend from the limits of the homeland to the forward regions The approaches are not uniformly defined may not have boundaries and I-9 Chapter I may be characterized based on a specific situation The primary objective of actions within the approaches is to locate threats as far from the homeland as possible and defeat them at a safe distance The National Military Strategy NMS emphasizes the importance of joining the efforts of multinational and interagency partners to form an integrated defense Protecting these approaches requires intelligence and when possible enhanced persistent surveillance that allows the US to detect track and if required interdict and defeat potential threats d The Homeland If deterring or defeating threats in forward regions and approaches fail DOD must be postured to take immediate decisive action to defend against and defeat the threat in the homeland Actions in the homeland may take place simultaneously and in coordination with operations conducted in the forward regions and or the approaches 5 The Homeland Defense Operational Framework a The HD operational framework includes the plans and actions taken to detect deter prevent shape and defeat threats and aggression against the homeland The purpose of HD is to protect against incursions or attacks on sovereign US territory the domestic population and critical infrastructure and key resources CI KR as directed The following are DOD HD objectives 1 Dissuade threats from undertaking programs or conducting actions that could pose a threat to the US homeland 2 Ensure defense of the homeland and deny a threat’s access to the nation’s sovereign airspace territory and territorial seas 3 Ensure access to cyberspace and information including information systems and security 4 Protect the domestic population and critical infrastructure 5 Deter aggression and coercion by conducting global operations 6 Decisively defeat any attack if deterrence fails 7 Recover the military force to restore readiness and capabilities after any attack or incident b The diversity of threats requires DOD the military instrument of national power take a broad role to coordinate all the requirements and objectives of the HD operational framework HD operations require integration of capabilities and synchronization of activities i e arrangement of activities across time space and purpose through interagency coordination and when necessary interorganizational coordination c DOD conducts activities and operations globally to contribute to national preparedness and defense of the homeland They are carried out in various operational environments OEs An OE encompasses physical areas of the air land maritime and I-10 JP 3-27 Fundamentals of Homeland Defense space domains the information environment which includes cyberspace the electromagnetic spectrum and other factors HD operations are conducted IAW laws treaties and international agreements national authorities and DOD CJCS Military Department and Service policy and doctrine HD operations require active and passive defenses and DOD may conduct offensive actions to include preemptive activities to deter disrupt and destroy enemy capabilities before they can be offensively employed 1 Outside the US in the forward regions and approaches DOD conducts activities to maintain the freedom to operate in portions of the OE access information and conduct operations or campaigns to disrupt and defeat terrorists and other enemies before they are able to execute attacks against the US homeland Per CJCSI 3110 01 U Joint Strategic Capabilities Plan JSCP HD must be integrated into the global campaign plans Identity activities are used to restrict mobility and access Collected identity information and identity intelligence analytical methodologies are leveraged to identify threat actors and produce widely releasable products to support targeting tactical screening vetting and FP initiatives that support global operations HD national security screening and vetting activities by interagency partners DOD security cooperation activities e g exercises exchanges and counterproliferation and nonproliferation activities also advance working relationships gain or maintain access to a partner nation PN and increase interoperability with friends and allies The DOD State Partnership Program SPP contributes to these initiatives and is part of the GCCs’ security cooperation program See Joint Doctrine Note JDN 2-16 Identity Activities for more information on identity information and identity intelligence 2 Within the homeland military activities are conducted in or adjacent to the land mass airspace and territorial waters of the US These activities require freedom of action and full access and use of capabilities in cyberspace and space HD includes ballistic missile defense BMD cruise missile CM defense interdiction land operations to include protection of critical infrastructure and defensive cyberspace operations DCO The defense of the homeland requires a multi-domain approach d HD operations require thorough preparation DOD EP activities at the strategic level may focus on actions associated with continuity of operations COOP continuity of government COG and national preparedness At the operational level however DOD emergency preparations to defend the homeland include activities such as joint and interagency interoperability and coordination joint training exercises and experimentation and development of information and intelligence sharing architectures e Early detection facilitates timely identification tracking and engagement decisions for threats before they reach the homeland In the forward regions and approaches intelligence and when possible persistent intelligence surveillance and reconnaissance can provide decision makers with possible warnings early warning and assessments CONUS airspace is protected in part by NORAD’s integrated tactical warning and attack assessment ITW AA functions For maritime domain awareness the National Maritime Intelligence-Integration Office is an interagency organization that works at the national and international levels to facilitate the integration of maritime I-11 Chapter I information and intelligence collection and analysis in support of national policy and interagency decision makers at all levels of the USG Additionally maritime warning utilizes mutual support agreements with other commands and agencies responsible for maritime defense and security to enable identification validation and response to threats to North America Another essential interagency organization is the National Counterterrorism Center NCTC that has the specific and unique mission to acquire integrate analyze and disseminate all available USG information about terrorist threats and identities The US and its multinational partners seek a global awareness of all threats to national security individually and collectively to increase the ability to deal with a range of threats at home and abroad Early detection of CBRN threats emanating from any theater must be integrated throughout intelligence planning and execution from collection to dissemination f Deterrence is a key HD objective Deterrence is the prevention of adversary actions contrary to enduring national interests of the US by the existence of a credible threat of unacceptable consequences Credible deterrence operates by influencing adversary decision making through the demonstration of US capability and strategic messaging of US resolve to employ capabilities to not only deny the adversary any benefits from taking action but also to impose costs from taking action USG offensive capabilities coupled with defensive measures and DOD EP activities may deter an adversary from threatening or attacking the homeland Adversaries must understand USG capabilities to include the reliability and readiness of well-trained equipped and rapidly deployable forces Therefore deterrence is fundamentally about shaping adversary perceptions to believe that the cost of action or inaction outweighs perceived benefits See JP 3-0 Joint Operations for additional information on deterrence g DOD must be prepared to rapidly act offensively or defensively against threats and aggression DOD as directed by the President may conduct preemptive and or active defense actions including flexible deterrent options and flexible response options IAW international and domestic law national policy and directives If deterrence fails the objective of these operations is to destroy degrade disrupt or neutralize weapons launch platforms support command control and communications logistics and intelligence collection capabilities before they are employed by a threat Examples of offensive operations may include global strikes direct action and offensive space control The US and its multinational partners work together to synchronize activities and measures that may include any or all of their instruments of national power h Primary HD defensive actions include active and passive measures to defeat threats already deployed or en-route to a target Active defenses employ defensive actions e g defensive counterair and offensive actions e g counterattacks to deny a contested area or position to the enemy and are designed to reduce the effectiveness of or stop attacks on US sovereign territory domestic population and CI KR Active defenses employ land maritime air space cyberspace and special operations forces assets This multi-domain approach increases the reach of active defenses The objective of HD passive defense is to reduce the probability of and minimize the damage caused by hostile actions Passive defenses include FP and critical infrastructure risk mitigation actions to reduce targeting I-12 JP 3-27 Fundamentals of Homeland Defense effectiveness They also include deception mobility dispersion systems hardening and protective construction warning and surveillance and operations security I-13 Chapter I Intentionally Blank 1-14 JP 3-27 CHAPTER II COMMAND RELATIONSHIPS AND INTERORGANIZATIONAL COOPERATION 1 General a HD is part of a global active layered defense-in-depth that aims to deter and defeat aggression abroad and simultaneously protect the homeland It includes the forward regions the approaches and the homeland The relationships of participants for some HD activities operations may be simple and others may be complex but the supported joint force commander JFC is responsible for all participants understanding their established command and organizational relationships for the unity of command and interorganizational cooperation required for unified action during an HD operation b CCDRs exercise combatant command command authority COCOM of assigned forces and are directly responsible to the President and SecDef for the performance of assigned missions and the preparedness of their commands CCDRs prescribe the chain of command within their commands and designate the appropriate authority to be exercised by subordinate commanders Dependent upon the location and type of threat to the homeland CDRUSNORTHCOM and or CDRUSPACOM would be designated as a supported CCDR for HD For more details regarding establishment of support relationships and responsibilities of supported and supporting CCDRs see JP 1 Doctrine for the Armed Forces of the United States c A consideration that significantly affects command relationships for HD is that virtually all the strategic threats to the homeland in USNORTHCOM and USPACOM AORs are based in the AORs of other GCCs This requires command relationships for a collaborative federated architecture for targeting by USNORTHCOM and USPACOM with the Joint Staff J-2 Intelligence Directorate the intelligence directorates of the combatant commands CCMDs the National Joint Operations and Intelligence Center and other supporting CCDRs especially those supporting GCCs in whose AORs those strategic threats reside For more details regarding the relationships and process for federated targeting support see JP 3-60 Joint Targeting 2 Unified Action a Unified action is the synchronization coordination and or integration of the activities of governmental and nongovernmental entities with military operations to achieve unity of effort In HD this includes interaction with joint single-Service and multinational operations with the activities of other interagency partners NGOs international organizations and the private sector to achieve unity of effort Because of the normal multitude of interorganizational partners and other participants HD is essentially a model of unified action especially with regard to how forces and other organizations can coordinate and operate day-to-day in the same OE II-1 Chapter II b Canadian forces work with US forces to provide aerospace warning concerning North America through NORAD In the context of NORAD’s missions “North America” means Alaska Canada CONUS Puerto Rico and the US Virgin Islands including the air defense identification zones the air approaches maritime areas internal navigable waterways and the maritime approaches thereto In the US DOD through NORAD defends against air threats—including manned aircraft unmanned aircraft UA and CMs—whether in the approaches or within US airspace While DOD has sole responsibility for defeating air threats it receives assistance from the FAA and DHS assets for early identification of anomalous air activity which may ultimately threaten the US The Air National Guard ANG supports HD on a daily basis with alert aircraft to rapidly establish air dominance within US airspace The Army National Guard ARNG supports HD on a daily basis on alert while conducting missile defense operations within US airspace c During preparation for potential HD land operations specific USA USMC and special operations units in conjunction with USNORTHCOM and USPACOM components and subordinate unified commands coordinate and conduct exercises with DHS and other interagency partners ARNG may support HD as a functionary of the individual states and territories under Title 32 USC status or in state active duty status The USA and USMC interact with mission partners through civil-military operations centers CMOCs or state emergency management agencies staffed with an emergency preparedness liaison officer EPLO The CMOC capability is established and manned by civil affairs personnel but works best when tailored to the specific task associated with the mission and augmented by assets e g engineer medical transportation available to the supported commander and unified action partners to synchronize resources personnel and stabilization efforts The components and subordinate unified commands also work with Canadian forces to conduct a cooperative defense to secure the land approaches supporting in-depth defense of the homeland Command relationships and interagency coordination required for the complex OE for HD are planned and routinely rehearsed in national-level exercises d The Royal Canadian Navy teams with USN i e US Naval Forces Northern Command and USCG forces through cooperative training and combined exercises to ensure both nations’ maritime forces and agencies are poised to respond to maritime threats to either nation In the US DOD has the lead for HD but many USG departments and agencies are partners in a collaborative approach e The use of civilian and military space capabilities is essential to the effectiveness of conducting HD Canadian forces work with US forces to provide aerospace warning of space and missile attack through the NORAD Agreement The Joint Functional Component Command for Space JFCC Space at United States Strategic Command USSTRATCOM and the Service space forces conduct operations to protect and defend the right to operate in space and are responsible for securing DOD critical assets in space GCCs with HD responsibilities provide FP for those ground-based space assets located in their respective AORs USSTRATCOM and JFCC Space coordinate with the CJCS other CCMDs DOD other USG departments and agencies e g Defense Information Systems II-2 JP 3-27 Command Relationships and Interorganizational Cooperation Agency DISA the National Aeronautics and Space Administration commercial partners and international agencies to integrate civil and military space assets f For cyberspace the vulnerability and complex interrelationship of national and international networks demand closely coordinated action among the military private sector and other government entities at all levels CCMD CO support

their own AORs forward regions and approaches or through global responsibilities assigned in the UCP 1 Commander North American Aerospace Defense Command CDRNORAD By international agreement CDRNORAD leads the bi-national command composed of Canadian and US forces Per the NORAD Terms of Reference NORAD’s primary missions are aerospace warning aerospace control and maritime warning for North America CDRNORAD is responsible to the Canadian government and USG communicating through the Chief of Defence Staff CDS Canada and CJCS respectively CDRUSNORTHCOM is normally designated as CDRNORAD IAW the NORAD Agreement when CDRNORAD is a Canadian CDRUSNORTHCOM will be designated Deputy Commander NORAD While NORAD and USNORTHCOM have separate missions defined by separate authorities parts of the USNORTHCOM AOR overlap with NORAD’s operational area OA in the NORAD Agreement this is normally referred to as an area of operations AO The organizations are separate commands and neither is subordinate to the other or is a part of the other However their operational focus runs parallel with detecting deterring preventing and defeating threats and aggression in the air approaches and

Corps Reserve the ANG the Air Force Reserve and the USCG Reserve By virtue of their geographic dispersion throughout the US the RC represents a significant military response capability for HD missions and activities e NG The NG is forward-based in nearly 3 000 communities throughout the US the territories of Guam the US Virgin Islands and Puerto Rico and the District of Columbia It is readily available to conduct domestic operations including HD DSCA NG civil support and HS activities As a military organization the NG routinely interacts with state and local emergency managers local LE first responders and Title 10 USC forces The NG is experienced in supporting neighboring communities in times of crisis NG forces II-14 JP 3-27 Command Relationships and Interorganizational Cooperation have both federal and state responsibilities specified in the Constitution of the US Title 10 USC Title 32 USC and applicable state constitutional provisions and statutes It operates not only as RCs of the USA and the USAF supporting the President and their assigned CCMDs when under Titles 10 and or Title 32 USC in time of war and in national contingencies but also as an organized militia supporting governors in domestic operations in Title 32 USC or state active duty status It is important that other Service component commanders and staffs understand that the statutory roles and authorities of NG forces when acting under state control vary from state to state Governors may employ the NG for the HD mission in state active duty status or as provided in Title 32 USC Section 902 when approved by SecDef for HD activities such as critical infrastructure protection CIP When federalized pursuant to Title 10 USC NG units and personnel are subject to federal C2 For more detailed information regarding the NG and HD see DODD 3160 01 Homeland Defense Activities Conducted by the National Guard 1 NGB NGB is a joint activity of DOD and serves as the channel of communications for all matters pertaining to the NG between the Departments of the Army and Air Force the 50 states District of Columbia Commonwealth of Puerto Rico Guam and the US Virgin Islands CNGB is the principal advisor to SecDef through the CJCS on matters involving non-federalized NG forces and on NG matters to the Secretaries of the Army and Air Force and to the Service chiefs of the Army and Air Force The NGB participates with the USA and USAF staffs in the development and coordination of programs pertaining to or affecting the NG The NGB formulates and administers the programs for the training development and maintenance of the ARNG and ANG 2 The Adjutants General TAGs The non-federalized NG is commanded and controlled by the governor through TAG of each state or in the case of

information on the roles and responsibilities of TAGs see DODD 5105 83 National Guard Joint Force Headquarters-State NG JFHQs-State 3 Reserves The reserves at all times are subject to a federal chain of command pursuant to Title 10 USC as defined by their parent Service The USCG Reserve is subject to both Title 10 USC and Title 14 USC under the direction of the Commandant of the USCG For additional information on the RC mobilization demobilization process see JP 4-05 Joint Mobilization Planning e CCDRs HD Relationships Synchronization is the arrangement of military actions in time space and purpose to produce maximum relative combat power at a decisive place and time Integration should include military and civilian organizations as appropriate In consideration of strategic direction the JFC establishes the priorities timelines goals and objectives for HD missions that allow synchronization and integration of all operations for II-15 Chapter II unified action Federal and international law international and command agreements DOD policies and selected plans provide guidance which the CCDR must integrate to achieve synchronization Command arrangement agreements CAAs establish procedures and delineate responsibilities between two or more CCDRs concerning mutual support interface and cooperation They prescribe the arrangement necessary to support the employment of forces from one CCDR to another and the control of these forces operating within a specific AOR or JOA CAAs may also delineate information and intelligence dissemination requirements in order to enhance coordination for planning and execution of cross-AOR operations CAAs must remain consistent with DOD guidance as promulgated from SecDef and the CJCS The CAA between CDRUSNORTHCOM and CDRUSPACOM establishes the methodology under which transfer of forces between the two CCMDs is executed in support of HD missions Additionally per DOD policies CNGB and the state NG forces must be coordinated and synchronized within both the planning and execution phases to ensure unity of effort Processes C2 arrangements and communication requirements are representative items addressed in the document 4 Interagency Coordination a Interorganizational Coordination and Interoperability During an HD operation civil authorities may span the gamut of being fully functional to non-existent or could contain any combination of federal state and local authorities The events that initiate an HD operation are so diverse it is difficult to estimate the civilian functions likely to be functional and can only be determined as the situation develops HS activities of some interorganizational partners may overlap with some HD activities and while the major military activities that are the responsibilities of DOD cannot be accomplished by other interorganizational partners their support is essential Unity of effort among all HD participants is fundamental and essential HD operations are conducted in a complex OE that contains thousands of different jurisdictions federal state tribal and local many agencies and organizations the private sector and several allies and multinational partners From a USG perspective this necessitates coordinated and integrated activities that have been previously exercised rehearsed to facilitate effective interagency interoperability in addition to unity of effort Coordination should be conducted through the defense coordinating officer defense coordinating element DCE of the affected region The inherent interrelationships between HS HD and DSCA and the potential for transition between those missions creates a dynamic and complex environment in which interorganizational coordination and resulting interoperability could prove critical From a DOD perspective understanding and executing the multiple command relationships and organizational relationships required for simultaneous execution of HS HD and DSCA requires the utmost in interagency coordination 1 Within the US homeland and its approaches forces may face continuous media scrutiny When faced with media questions or scrutiny consult with the public affairs PA office before responding This is due to the sensitive jurisdictional considerations and political dimensions of a domestic response 2 Operational coordination is conducted within appropriate joint force command centers and their corresponding non-DOD counterparts It is not complete until II-16 JP 3-27 Command Relationships and Interorganizational Cooperation it includes interorganizational planning considerations which are intrinsic rather than optional in the planning process CDRUSNORTHCOM and or CDRUSPACOM may seek approval and guidance from SecDef to conduct interorganizational planning and coordination when appropriate 3 Each CCDR has the prerogative to organize or tailor the interorganizational coordination function differently based on mission requirements Regardless of the title of the interorganizational coordination effort it should include agency representatives command liaison officers LNOs and staff representatives who collaborate to share information analyze ongoing activities actions implications and or consequences and participate in planning Interorganizational coordination efforts should ensure the commander and staff are completely informed on interagency issues and implications For more information on interagency coordination refer to JP 3-08 Interorganizational Cooperation 4 Information sharing is critical to the efficient pursuit of unity of effort A proven approach to information sharing during interorganizational cooperation is the use of transparency to develop shared situational awareness of common objectives Commanders and interorganizational partners should provide guidance on what information needs to be shared with whom when and how DOD’s over-reliance on the classified information system for both classified and unclassified information is a frequent impediment and the means of sharing the information must be established in advance DOD information should be appropriately secured shared and made available throughout the information life cycle to appropriate mission partners to the maximum extent allowed by US laws and DOD policy Critical to transparency of information sharing is the proper classification of intelligence and information b MHD and MHS Coordination MHD and MHS are closely related but separate activities based on the distinct authorities used to implement either MHD or MHS tasks The Title 14 USC functions and powers of the USCG enable USCG commanders to conduct a broad spectrum of regulatory functions and MHS activities while maintaining the capability and readiness to rapidly transition to execute Title 10 USC MHD tasking when required USCG regulatory functions such as captain of the port COTP authorities and marine transportation system waterways management activities may be used to support or complement MHD operations MHS activities and USCG regulatory functions are not conducted under CGDEFOR C2 due to the limitations of Title 10 USC authority JFCs seeking to leverage USCG regulatory functions or MHS activities must coordinate with the appropriate USCG area commander DOD forces that are provided to support MHS operations are TACON to specifically designated USCG commanders Figure II-2 depicts the C2 of both MHD tasks pertaining to CGDEFOR as discussed in applicable EXORDs and interdepartmental agreements and MHS tasks that are conducted under USCG-specific authorities For more information on coordination of USCG-specific authorities see JP 3-08 Interorganizational Cooperation II-17 Chapter II 1 MHD Tasks MHD tasks conducted under the C2 of DOD forces are categorized under the joint functions and are subject to SROE see Chapter III “Planning and Operations for Homeland Defense” 2 MHS Tasks MHS tasks and related regulatory functions are conducted under the C2 of USCG commanders are further described in USCG policy directives and doctrine and are subject to USCG use of force policy Certain MHS tasks may require immediate USCG access to DOD capabilities and forces CDRUSNORTHCOM CDRUSPACOM and CDRUSSOUTHCOM may transfer forces to operate under the TACON of USCG commanders for MHS operations upon request by the USCG In certain circumstances SecDef authorization may be required to reallocate forces or approve a request for assistance to support MHS for 48 hours or more DOD forces conducting MHS operations under USCG C2 must adhere to USCG use of force policy for warning shots and disabling fire For more information on MHS tasks and USCG use of force policy see Commandant Instruction COMDTINST M16600 6 Maritime

Security for Department of Defense Support to the United States Coast Guard for Maritime Homeland Security c MOTR Process 1 The MOTR Plan aligns the response to maritime threats against the US The MOTR Plan has been used to facilitate the resolution of many maritime threat responses ranging from migrant interdictions and drug seizures to terrorism and piracy Operational protocols complement the plan with detailed guidance for specific types of cases and agency department contact information 2 The MOTR Plan provides the framework for integrated military LE diplomatic and intelligence community IC action Ensuring an aligned response is particularly challenging in the maritime environment where multiple USG departments and agencies may be involved each having separate authorities responsibilities and capabilities 3 The MOTR Plan supports for example the coordinated response to a vessel suspected of illicit trafficking Such a response may include identifying the legal basis for boarding enactment of diplomatic efforts with a vessel’s flag state and resolution of II-18 JP 3-27 Command Relationships and Interorganizational Cooperation investigative and disposition determinations all of which potentially involve multiple USG departments’ and agencies’ authority and jurisdiction 4 The Global MOTR Coordination Center facilitates the coordination process and serves as the executive secretariat for implementation of the MOTR Plan During MOTR coordination activities the Global MOTR Coordination Center is accountable to the NSC staff see National Security Presidential Directive NSPD -41 Homeland Security Presidential Directive HSPD -13 Maritime Security Policy 5 Successful MOTR execution relies on the operations-intelligence linkage enhanced by ongoing efforts to achieve maritime domain awareness and to facilitate timely decision making The objective is to identify threats as early and as distant from the homeland as possible but no later than the time required to defeat or otherwise overcome threats at a safe distance from the US This is enabled by maritime domain awareness For additional information on maritime domain awareness refer to JP 3-32 Command and Control for Joint Maritime Operations d Land Operational Threat Response 1 The homeland is a unique theater of operations for US ground forces and is subject to special requirements The USA and USMC components to USNORTHCOM and USPACOM work with DHS other interagency partners and civil authorities to support HS which complements some aspects of HD The USA and USARNORTH also support security cooperation activities with North American partners to help build a cooperative military defense as part of the effort to secure the land approaches and ensure defense of the homeland in-depth 2 Many of the missions and activities that are conducted by the land component during shaping operations support other interagency partners and civil authorities e g defense support of LEAs CD CWMD countering TCOs FP security cooperation activities with Mexico and The Bahamas and partnership with Canada These efforts contribute to and are enablers to both HS and HD Those efforts help constitute the prevent aspect of HD The sharing of identity information between interagency partners is a key enabler to manage and track cross-border movement NSPD-59 HSPD-24 Biometrics for Identification and Screening to Enhance National Security instructs all federal agencies to make available to other agencies biometric and associated biographical and contextual information associated with persons of interest Operational commanders collect and provide identity information on terrorists encountered in the OE to the NCTC through the Defense Intelligence Agency DIA Watch Listing Division For additional information on joint land operations refer to JP 3-31 Command and Control for Joint Land Operations e AOTR Process 1 An AOTR ensures a comprehensive and coordinated USG response to air threats against the US or its interests NSPD-47 HSPD-16 Aviation Security Policy II-19 Chapter II prescribes the AOTR Plan as part of the overall national aviation policy Simply stated the AOTR is primarily to counter asymmetric threats involving civilian aviation but includes considerations for interagency coordination to defend against foreign military air and missile attacks Several DOD HD responsibilities fall within the protocols of the AOTR DOD response capabilities remain an integral part of the overall national response in support of HD and HS complementary objectives and missions 2 AOTR comprises immediate actions generally short duration in nature to counter the full range of airborne and ground-based aviation security threats These threats include but are not limited to attacks using civilian aviation i e commercial general aviation manned and unmanned aircraft as weapons against ground-based or airborne targets attacks against aircraft including hijacking and air piracy attacks using standoff weapons including man-portable air defense systems attacks involving civilian aircraft carrying WMD and attacks against aviation transportation system infrastructure AOTR execution begins when intelligence or other information is received that an incident is imminent or occurring and that an immediate response is necessary and concludes when the threat has been defeated or otherwise resolved 3 Upon AOTR execution and time permitting DOD initiates secure communications with appropriate departments and agencies to facilitate the timely flow of information This will allow for appropriate consultation related to the initial DOD airborne operational response as well as coordination of related LE actions or other security measures DOD performs the following activities specific to AOTR as appropriate a Specific Airborne Threats an ongoing or potential attack from the air 1 Through CCDRs and NORAD SecDef directs the necessary supporting measures to facilitate effective response and to mitigate subsequent effects of an ongoing or potential attack from the air In extreme circumstances this includes a determination made in consultation with the Department of Transportation DOT and DHS whether to implement emergency security control of air traffic measures Unless the President directs otherwise DOD is the only USG department authorized to direct engagement using deadly force against airborne civilian aircraft that present an imminent threat to the US or US interests 2 Interception of designated flights of interest that do not present an immediate threat to the US or its interests as deemed necessary by SecDef or designee This includes response to a threat against aircraft with US persons onboard that occurs overseas in coordination with the Department of State DOS and the affected countries as appropriate 3 Conducting air defense against airborne hostile military threats b General Threats 1 Conducting air defense against threats to DOD assets and infrastructure on DOD installations II-20 JP 3-27 Command Relationships and Interorganizational Cooperation 2 Response to other aviation threats globally including airborne or ground-based actions taken at the request of foreign partners and when directed by SecDef or the President For more information on the full range of air operations refer to JP 3-01 Countering Air and Missile Threats and JP 3-30 Command and Control of Joint Air Operations For more information on the AOTR refer to the Aviation Operational Threat Response Plan 5 Interorganizational Cooperation Considerations a The threat exists across a continuum that ranges from nation states down to individuals and small groups who are intent on doing harm to the US Today HD mission response forces involve multiple organizations Operation NOBLE EAGLE ONE the NORAD USNORTHCOM and USPACOM operation aimed at defending the homeland involves active duty personnel from the USAF USN Canadian Forces and NG members federalized for the mission These military forces coordinate with DOT FAA DHS the Department of Justice DOJ and other USG departments and agencies as appropriate A response to a possible hijack situation would involve the private sector as well as local first responders For example airline companies private or municipal airports local municipalities and other non-federal entities are responsible for the aircraft and any airports where the aircraft may attempt to land or be directed to land This demonstrates the complex environment in which DOD forces must respond to threats that involve multiple jurisdictions federal state territorial local and tribal with domestic partners and international multinational partners e g NORAD b The HD C2 structure will depend upon early identification of the responsibilities authorities and capabilities of USG organizations which support HD plus the additional considerations of other governmental organizations or NGOs and multinational forces The resulting complexity of C2 mission planning and operational execution should drive early identification of the desired end states and necessary collaboration with the operational partners Moreover the JFC with HD missions should also account for likely media scrutiny and sovereignty and jurisdictional issues For example MHD operations may transition from HD to HS to DSCA missions or vice versa with the selection of the primary agency being dependent upon both the developing real-time situation and the USG desired end state HD HS and DSCA operations can occur simultaneously or transition from one to another HD missions in the homeland and in the approaches are truly dynamic as situations may change in minutes or hours versus days or weeks For additional information on interorganizational cooperation refer to JP 3-08 Interorganizational Cooperation 6 Multinational Forces To conduct the full range of HD operations CCDRs should consider multinational and nonmilitary organizations When a response force resides within an alliance the procedures and structure of that alliance will normally determine the operational-level leadership When a response force is based in a coalition or a lead-nation structure in an II-21 Chapter II alliance the designated lead nation or other leadership mechanism will normally select the operational-level leadership While the President and SecDef retain command authority over US forces it is often prudent or advantageous to place appropriate US forces under the TACON of a foreign commander for reasons such as maximizing military effectiveness and ensuring unity of effort a Security Cooperation Efforts The US seeks the cooperation of numerous foreign governments multinational forces and other international partners to achieve its national security goals to include defense of the homeland CCDRs integrate this cooperation with their theater campaign plans TCPs and conduct security cooperation activities to encourage and enable countries to work with the US to achieve strategic objectives Strengthening security relations with multinational partners increases their capabilities to contend with common challenges 1 In the forward regions CCDRs and their components conduct security cooperation activities with PNs that help provide the outer layer of HD 2 GCCs with geographic HD responsibilities have AORs with very different characteristics In addition to its vast airspace the USPACOM AOR is predominantly maritime and includes considerable political religious cultural social and economic diversity It encompasses the Asia-Pacific region with numerous sovereign nations and one-half of the Earth’s surface The area includes five of seven US security treaty alliances and extensive international waters covered by international law as well as US territories under US law treaties or compacts The USNORTHCOM AOR is primarily continental with extensive land borders and coastal regions It includes Canada Mexico The Bahamas Turks and Caicos Islands Bermuda the British Virgin Islands Puerto Rico the US Virgin Islands and the US excluding Hawaii and Pacific territories with multiple legal and policy concerns USNORTHCOM security cooperation efforts with Canada and Mexico directly impact US defense-in-depth a Military Engagement and Shaping Security cooperation enhances access readiness and training by strengthening partnerships and regional security This involves specific focus areas as described in the Guidance for Employment of the Force GEF GCCs with geographic HD responsibilities address commander’s communication synchronization in their security cooperation planning efforts CCDRs seek to diminish the conditions that terrorists exploit and to support activities that deny sanctuary to terrorists The plans also strengthen and improve collaboration among joint commands agencies at all levels of government and regional partners b Enabling Continental Defense Cooperative defense in association with US regional partners enhances successful continental defense achieving collective security interests and the desired HS and HD shaping objectives established in the GCC’s TCP Security cooperation activities are essential to both USNORTHCOM support of HS and the HD mission through mutually beneficial partnerships Military and civilian interoperability and cooperation begins by establishing and maintaining relationships These relationships build to include combined education training military engagement equipping and exercises supported by intelligence and information sharing exchange of II-22 JP 3-27 Command Relationships and Interorganizational Cooperation LNOs and other activities that facilitate HD Cooperative defense helps foster appropriate relationships to leverage complementary capabilities and capitalize on limited resources Finally current efforts toward an integrated North American defense warrant an increase in HD exercises and personnel exchanges 3 Various initiatives and agreements exist that forge relationships and provide for multinational coordination in the defense of the homeland For example the CanadaUnited States Combined Defense Plan is another step towards an integrated North American defense b Alliance Support to HD Various alliances may be a source of additional HD support For example Article 5 of the North Atlantic Treaty states “… an armed attack against one or more of them in Europe or North America shall be considered an attack against them all and consequently they agree that if such an armed attack occurs each of them in exercise of the right of individual or collective self-defence… ” When the US was attacked on 11 September 2001 the North Atlantic Treaty Organization NATO invoked Article 5 and provided NATO Airborne Warning and Control System aircraft to help patrol US airspace and initiated Operation ACTIVE ENDEAVOUR as part of an AT effort c Other Multinational Considerations Many activities can increase US partners’ capabilities and create the conditions for establishing new multinational partnerships to contend with mutual challenges The GEF outlines a series of security activities a CCDR can use to advance long-term security objectives with multinational partners wherever feasible and collectively supportive These activities include 1 Multinational exercises training education and experimentation 2 Counternarcotics assistance 3 CWMD activities 4 Defense and military contacts 5 Defense support to public diplomacy e g developing information programs in regional languages that complement other security cooperation activities 6 Security force assistance to include DOS security assistance programs 7 Forensics and biometrics capability and capacity building 8 Other programs and activities e g Regional Defense Counterterrorism Fellowship Program and Defense Environmental International Cooperation 9 DOD SPP d The OE and the coordinated and integrated action of all contributors may blur the distinct contribution of any individual organization or capability in isolation from all others This is particularly true when contemplating the complex environment within the II-23 Chapter II homeland Each organization has unique capabilities that may not be easily duplicated by other departments agencies or organizations The supported JFC should continually address the challenge of coordinating integrating and synchronizing the wide range of available capabilities to defend the homeland Employment of nonlethal capabilities should be considered in any situation requiring direct fire capabilities e To achieve the objectives unified action and the synchronization and integration of military operations in time space and purpose the JFC must consider many factors to include 1 What objectives when achieved will attain the desired end state 2 What sequence of actions is most likely to achieve the objectives 3 How can the resources of the joint force and interorganizational and multinational partners be applied to accomplish that sequence of actions 4 What is the likely cost or risk to the joint force in performing that sequence of actions For additional information on multinational coordination see JP 3-16 Multinational Operations II-24 JP 3-27 CHAPTER III PLANNING AND OPERATIONS FOR HOMELAND DEFENSE 1 General The threat to the homeland is both difficult to predict and increasingly diverse The likelihood of conventional large-scale land attack on the US may be remote However the wide range of threats that does exist must be addressed In modern times US forces have concentrated on defeating threats as far away from the homeland as possible and that remains the objective The central idea is to protect the homeland from external threats and aggression using integrated strategic operational and tactical offensive and defensive measures as necessary The ability to detect deter prevent or if necessary defeat threats is a required capability to protect the homeland Specific planning factors requirements and objectives for HD operations are contained in OPLANs and CONPLANs associated with the mission 2 Strategic Guidance General strategy is provided in high-level policy documents such as the National Security Strategy NSS Defense Strategy Review and the NMS Similarly high-level planning guidance is provided in the UCP GEF and CJCSI 3110 01 U Joint Strategic Capabilities Plan JSCP Planning architecture is provided in Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Manual CJCSM 3130 03 Adaptive Planning and Execution APEX Formats and Guidance 3 Operational Factors a Civil and Military Relationships Civil-military relationships may be more complicated during HD operations because the military operations will be taking place in our homeland Regardless of the size and scope of the particular operations inevitably they will involve multiple jurisdictions such as cities counties regions tribes and states As a result multiple agencies and organizations will participate Some may directly or indirectly support military operations and some may conflict with them not because of different loyalties but because of different authorities Managing such relationships will require significant time and effort on the part of federal state local and tribal authorities to ensure proper coordination Interagency forums associations information sharing and constant communications will be vital enablers Interorganzational coordination and synchronization with governmental and nongovernmental entities as well as ensuring conformity with the Response Federal Interagency Operational Plan may assume a level of importance not matched in most overseas theaters of operations For additional information on civil and military relationships during a domestic incident see PPD-25 Guideline for US Government Interagency Response to Terrorist Threats or Incidents in the US and Overseas b Commander’s Communication Synchronization and PA III-1 Chapter III 1 CJCSM 3130 03 Adaptive Planning and Execution APEX Formats and Guidance requires the JFC to include communication goals and objectives in the commander’s intent and to have a communication approach that ensures unity of themes objectives and messages among key activities consistency in intent or effect between command operations actions and information and a risk assessment of the information that may reach unintended audiences create unintended consequences and require risk mitigation measures For more information see JP 3-0 Joint Operations JP 3-61 Public Affairs and JDN 213 Commander’s Communication Synchronization 2 PA The role of PA in HD operations is to support the JFC by communicating truthful and factual unclassified information about DOD activities to US allied national and international audiences publics and stakeholders Due to the involvement of other USG departments and agencies in HD missions PA will require interagency cooperation coordination and unity of effort PA in HD operations enables all USG departments and agencies to speak with one voice and provide consistent factual information to the public As the LFA for HD DOD develops key messages and provides PA guidance Supporting agencies conduct their respective PA operations in concert with this guidance PA should be included in all phases of planning and coordination from the onset of HD operations Specific DOD PA responsibilities are outlined in various CCMD plans and standing PA guidance The EXORD for the incident will provide the PA posture and media engagement policy Incident-specific guidance will be developed by the primary agency in coordination with participating agencies For more information on PA see JP 3-61 Public Affairs c Non-DOD Federal State Territorial Local and Tribal Planning Factors 1 Interorganizational cooperation must occur between elements of DOD and non-DOD federal state local and tribal agencies as well as other participating USG departments and agencies for the purpose of achieving HD objectives Commanders of USNORTHCOM and USPACOM have designated DCEs assigned to each of the 10 respective Federal Emergency Management Agency FEMA regions Each Service has state EPLOs assigned to the same regions designated to conduct interagency coordination Service EPLOs usually coordinate with NG JFHQs-State joint operation centers Each FEMA region also contains additional NG planners to assist CCMD planners Positive and active participation by command interagency staff members from the interagency coordination office group or planning cell can be used to mutual benefit 2 Commanders and their staffs should consider the interrelationship between HD and DSCA operations i e the potential for transition between the missions and simultaneous operations d Legal Considerations Military operations inside the homeland can present unique and complex legal issues Certain military functions e g intelligence operations ROE and RUF have specific applications and legal implications when conducted III-2 JP 3-27 Planning and Operations for Homeland Defense domestically Coordination with the servicing office of the staff judge advocate for legal advice should be as early in the operation planning process as possible 4 Intelligence Sharing for Homeland Defense a The success of interorganizational cooperation in HD operations hinges upon timely and accurate information and intelligence Information sharing environments should include as many essential participants as possible understanding that not all are capable of participating in a collaborative environment When possible a collaborative intelligence sharing environment should be capable of generating and moving intelligence operational information and orders where needed in the shortest possible time Intelligence staff responsibilities can be found in the JP 2-0 series Coordination for information sharing and especially intelligence sharing should begin early in all HD planning processes b The architecture which supports this type of environment needs to be dynamic flexible and capable of providing multinational partners and interagency participants rapid access to appropriate data It should facilitate the capability of the IC to support the JFC and subordinate joint force components and to integrate support from and to non-DOD agencies and NGOs as needed c The intelligence sharing architecture is configured to provide the baseline data needed to support commanders at all levels CCDRs are responsible for the intelligence sharing architecture for their commands and all assigned attached and supporting elements For contingency operations subordinate JFCs supported by their intelligence directorates are responsible for establishing the intelligence architecture required to accomplish the HD mission In HD it is particularly important that effective fusion of intelligence counterintelligence CI LE information and other available threat information occurs This will assist in developing a more accurate assessment of threats to the homeland and may prevent surprise d The parameters under which DOD operates are different in the US than they are overseas In the past one individual typically dealt with foreign information and the other domestic Today both involve elements of foreign and domestic information Determining the nature of the data required and the right units to gather it are areas that often require judge advocate input regarding the legal authorities for information gathering Intelligence activities in the homeland are strictly governed by the Constitution applicable laws the policies and procedures authorized in DODD 5240 01 DOD Intelligence Activities and other relevant DOD policies e g intelligence oversight These policies permit DOD intelligence missions in the homeland if the subject of the intelligence effort is definitively linked to defense-related foreign intelligence and CI activities Intelligence oversight policies also provide established guidance and requirements to perform activities or missions not intelligence related e g using domestic imagery for incident assessment and awareness However intelligence oversight policies also provide specific guidance and regulations to ensure or safeguard against unauthorized collection against US persons citizens legal residents and organizations Special emphasis shall be given to the protection of the Constitutional and privacy rights of US persons III-3 Chapter III e LE information received by DOD frequently contains US person information US person information or information concerning persons and organizations not affiliated with DOD is subject to various statutory and regulatory rules and processes Military criminal investigation organizations’ agents or the FBI may provide sensitive threat information derived from ongoing LE or CI investigations It is imperative DOD personnel handling LE information be fully cognizant of all restrictions and processes for receipt retention handling dissemination and oversight f Intelligence activities specific to the NG are covered by CNGB Instruction 2000 01 series National Guard Intelligence Activities and CNGB Manual 2000 01 National Guard Intelligence Activities 5 Joint Fires Joint fires are fires delivered during the employment of forces from two or more components in coordinated action to produce desired effects in support of a common objective Joint fires may be provided to assist air land maritime or special operations forces in conducting HD activities within an OE framed by complex legal authorities and significant interagency coordination Although major operations against an enemy in the US remain highly unlikely various threats require capabilities and preparations to deter or defeat them For that reason the supported JFCs for HD have plans orders for HD operations that anticipate the use of joint fires across the range of military operations The following preparations provide useful examples of the challenges of employing joint fires in HD a Deterrence and Preemptive Self-Defense The complexity and diversity of the strategic threats to the homeland range from intercontinental ballistic missiles ICBMs to terrorists with WMD The common factor is that such attacks would have a devastating effect of strategic proportions From a joint fires perspective HD capabilities have a deterrent effect that minimizes the threat of an overt attack of strategic proportion by an enemy For threats from rogue states and non-state actors deterrence may not work so an active layered defense-in-depth complements the deterrence capabilities Also the use of joint fires to include global strike options in preemptive self-defense is a strategic consideration 1 The threat of ballistic missile attack against the homeland is the one strategic threat that would require the use of fires to protect the homeland The limited defense option for BMD is discussed under paragraph 7 “Protection ” 2 ONE While initially conceived in the immediate aftermath of the 11 September 2001 attacks this operation incorporates both the response to terrorist use of aircraft as weapons and NORAD’s air defense mission ONE and air defense is discussed under paragraph 7 “Protection ” 3 Terrorist threats to the homeland from overseas may require use of joint fires through military CT operations or in support of LE activities Terrorist threats within the III-4 JP 3-27 Planning and Operations for Homeland Defense homeland are an HS mission rather than a matter of HD unless directed otherwise by the President b Maritime Joint Fires Maritime joint fires provide significant capabilities against any maritime-based threat to the homeland The maritime environment including the sea approaches to the homeland may afford opportunities to employ joint fires in support of both HS and HD Maritime forces can be employed to rapidly destroy intercept or neutralize conventional and terrorist threats both at sea and ashore These assets are used to keep potential threats at bay far from US shores but could be deployed close to home if threats dictate Use of fires for lethal or nonlethal effects are options The maritime aspect of air and missile defenses are discussed under paragraph 7 “Protection ” 1 A variety of maritime threats to the homeland exists and may include cargo ships fishing boats semi-submersibles and military vessels Once a vessel has been identified as a threat to the homeland maritime forces’ options may be employed to detect deter prevent and defeat the delivery of the weapons cargo or people to the intended target s Maritime forces may take action as defined by the chain of command the SROE and supplementary measures if any 2 Depending on the threat MHD options may be determined through the MOTR Plan protocol process Within the USNORTHCOM AOR the JFMCC directs MHD operations that may include appropriate Service or SOF assets to detect deter prevent and defeat threat vessels c Land-Based Fires HD presents complex operational challenges for joint fires due to the necessity to achieve unity of effort within an OE of sovereign states with NG units and the need to interface with a number of disparate government agencies NGOs and the private sector Land-based fires for HD operations require interorganizational cooperation especially since there is significant overlap between DOD executing HD and LE organizations executing HS and supporting HD Land-based fires for air and missile defenses are discussed under paragraph 7 “Protection ” d Supporting Fires Conducting HD US-only air missions may require a high degree of dynamic targeting that relies on rapid coordination and integration of assessment surveillance and attack assets in real time In the homeland it is likely dynamic targeting and deliberate targeting via air tasking orders ATOs would require close coordination and integration with FAA operations See JP 3-30 Command and Control of Joint Air Operations for information on coordinating and executing ATOs and JP 3-60 Joint Targeting for information on dynamic targeting e CO HD also presents unique challenges for the JFC in the selection and engagement of the cyberspace elements of targets Since specific attribution of cyberspace threats and their geographic locations are often difficult to determine the JFC must carefully coordinate cyberspace fires based upon best available target intelligence and the specific effects authorized in their order III-5 Chapter III 6 Movement and Maneuver in the Conduct of Homeland Defense a Land Operations in the Conduct of HD 1 The GCCs with geographic HD responsibilities should anticipate plan and be prepared for offensive and defensive land operations Large-scale HD operations involving maneuver forces combined arms maneuver and the conduct of major combat offensive or defensive operations would be an extraordinary circumstance involving extraordinary decisions by the President However these types of operations are planned and prepared for within the doctrinal realm of HD HD land defense actions may include movement and maneuver fires for lethal and nonlethal effects closing with and destroying an enemy sustaining a joint force and setting conditions for a return to peace Specific HD land operations in support of HD may include security operations through FP tasks or CIP Defensive land operations will make use of existing USG departments’ and agencies’ capabilities where possible e g DHS 2 Land operations in the conduct of HD are planned and executed by the GCCs through their subordinate commands and either Service-specific task force HQs or JTFs Commanders consider the scope of the OE the specified and implied tasks and span of control when selecting the appropriate C2 relationship In addition commanders should consider the interagency environment the effect of current operations on the civilian populace and the role of the state tribal and local LEAs when executing HD operations Based upon available forces each GCC with geographic HD responsibilities has identified subordinate commands that establish or source HQs for HD operations The JFLCC may utilize the respective DCE assigned to the region as an advance element to provide situational awareness within the AOR and coordinate with interagency partners during DSCA and or HD operations Service components may utilize their respective EPLOs as an advance element to provide situational awareness within the AOR and coordinate with interagency partners during DSCA and or HD 3 Although land defense forces may be required to defend in the short term decisive results require shifting to the offense as soon as possible However HD operations should be of limited duration and conclude when the land forces achieve the objectives of the operation 4 USNORTHCOM Land Operations a CDRUSNORTHCOM may employ designated land component response forces from the USA and USMC to detect deter prevent and defeat threats or aggression within the AOR USARNORTH is a Service component command that has also been designated by CDRUSNORTHCOM as the standing joint force land component command USARNORTH could also be designated by CDRUSNORTHCOM as a JFC and provide C2 of subordinate JTFs and land forces for HD and DSCA missions USPACOM provides a quick response force QRF for HD operations in the Alaska JOA USNORTHCOM also has QRF and rapid response force RRF packages available for HD operations In addition individual states possess NG QRFs that may be used in response to an HD III-6 JP 3-27 Planning and Operations for Homeland Defense situation IAW Title 32 USC Sections 901-908 and DODD 3160 01 Homeland Defense Activities Conducted by the National Guard 1 Figure III-1 shows how land forces may be provided and employed for a rapid response When directed by the President or SecDef to conduct HD operations CDRUSNORTHCOM can consider several initial land force options employ a QRF or RRF employ a JTF with OPCON over a QRF or RRF employ a JFLCC with OPCON over a QRF or RRF or employ USARNORTH as a single-Service HQ with OPCON of a QRF or RRF Based on this decision CDRUSNORTHCOM sends a request for forces RFF to the Joint Staff Once SecDef approves the RFF force providers are directed to source personnel and equipment through Service components and provide them to CDRUSNORTHCOM If a larger force is required then follow-on forces can be employed These follow-on forces may combine with the QRF or RRF as a task force under a JTF A dedicated QRF RRF would only be utilized in a very small or isolated incident requiring quick reaction Homeland Defense Land Operations Rapid Response Process President Secretary of Defense Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Force Providers QRF or RRF or

MARFORNORTH In addition to command responsibilities MARFORNORTH supports coordinates and provides advice to CDRUSNORTHCOM on the employment of Marine forces when they are attached to USNORTHCOM for the conduct of HD operations 4 SOCNORTH CDRUSNORTHCOM has OPCON of SOCNORTH SOCNORTH provides SOF advice support and coordination It is also designated the joint force special operations component commander b Although considered extraordinary conditions may arise that require conventional land operations within the continental limits of the US to include Alaska In such instances forces will be made available to USNORTHCOM These operations will be guided by established doctrine principles and fundamentals Procedures for identifying C2 structures requesting and employing response forces and coordinating actions will be consistent with established doctrine Special considerations will likely apply due to the unique nature of operating in the homeland environment and the requirement for interorganizational cooperation Figure III-2 illustrates the HD land operations sustained response process Conventional land forces are provided to CDRUSNORTHCOM per the RFF process described above and allocated to the JFLCC or the commander joint task force CJTF who will have OPCON over these forces For more information refer to USNORTHCOM CONPLAN 3400 Homeland Defense 5 USPACOM Land Operations

Defense Land Operations Sustained Response Process When directed by the President responsibility for the security and defense of the homeland and its maritime approaches is shared between DOD and the USCG 1 Maritime operations in support of HD offer distinct challenges due to the nature of execution in or near the homeland in conjunction with interagency partners DOD is the LFA for MHD and the USCG is the LFA for MHS Through the relevant CCDR DOD provides an active layered defense supports USCG MHS operations with DOD forces capabilities and defeats maritime threats to the homeland beyond the scope of MHS Where coordination under the MOTR Plan is required issues such as designation of lead and supporting agencies desired national outcome required capabilities asset availability and authority to act must be determined 2 COMUSNAVNORTH designated as the theater JFMCC for CDRUSNORTHCOM conducts MHD operations in the USNORTHCOM AOR and supports the USCG for MHS and the operations of the other components as directed JFMCC can plan and execute unilateral USNORTHCOM MHD operations while III-9 Chapter III supporting binational NORAD missions when required including maritime warning and aerospace warning and control air defense 3 COMUSPACFLT designated as the theater JFMCC for CDRUSPACOM conducts MHD operations in the USPACOM AOR supports CDRUSNORTHCOM in the conduct of MHD operations in the USNORTHCOM AOR and supports the USCG for MHS Coordination between CCDRs for HD is addressed in specific CAAs 4 MHD operations may be accomplished independently or in support of other operations When established a maritime AO can include international and territorial waters harbor approaches ports waterfront facilities and those internal waters and rivers that provide access to port facilities including associated airspace The JFMCC plans and conducts HD operations to maintain sea control strengthen USCG MHS operations through port security and harbor defense operations conduct mine countermeasures MCM operations ensure protection of strategic sealift operations outside US ports and harbors provide a secure environment for US and coalition forces and support other

5 MCM Operations a Enemy mining of US territorial waters can be conducted by a variety of methods e g surface vessels air submarines or swimmers and or divers Multiple agencies could be involved in a response Guidance regarding notification and where necessary coordination is provided in the MOTR protocols Detection of mining activity is a priority for maritime surveillance systems monitoring the seaward approaches and internal waterways DOD is responsible for all MCM operations in the maritime environment including waters subject to US jurisdiction Under its MHS role the USCG is responsible for prevention and detection of mining within waters subject to US jurisdiction which includes maritime interdiction of mine laying platforms or vessels as required DOD also supplements the USCG’s MHS role with specific DOD MCM forces capabilities and expertise MCM operations can be conducted for the following reasons 1 Bottom mapping for OE awareness prior to an event 2 Exploratory operations to identify suspected mine threat and or boundary of the threat area 3 Clearance operations to locate identify and neutralize mine threats III-10 JP 3-27 Planning and Operations for Homeland Defense b Limited access areas such as safety or security zones may be required to support MCM operations MCM forces must coordinate these regulatory functions with USCG COTPs through the cognizant USCG area commander when the MCM AO encompasses waters subject to US jurisdiction DOD forces through the senior naval officer present in command have authority to enforce exclusionary zones established around large naval vessels 100 feet or longer whenever the USCG is not present in an effective MHS LE capacity These naval vessel protection zones are always in effect when large naval vessels transit waters subject to US jurisdiction For more information see JP 3-08 Interorganizational Cooperation and Title 33 Code of Federal Regulations Parts 6 and 165 c Maritime forces may support MCM operations by providing protection for MCM assets and providing logistics support for ashore staging areas in the AO Maritime forces provide aircraft and surface vessels in order to protect MCM forces from harassment or attack Logistics support to MCM forces is limited to messing berthing and potable water supplies In the event logistics support is required consideration should be given to basing MCM assets with or adjacent to maritime forces to economize security and logistics support For further information see JP 3-15 Barriers Obstacles and Mine Warfare for Joint Operations 6 Sea Lines of Communications and Chokepoint Operations Seaward security is a focused maritime operation that complements broader maritime operations designed to maintain sea lines of communications The primary objective is to provide for the safe passage of strategic sealift and commerce to and from deep water and to deny use of these areas to enemy forces Similarly maritime forces can be employed in a chokepoint e g narrow strait or canal to provide for the safe passage of friendly forces through that chokepoint Maritime units can be employed as part of a force—air surface and submarine units and their supporting systems positioned across the likely courses of expected enemy transit—for early detection and rapid warning blocking and destruction of the enemy During a declared MHD mission USCG MHS operations will support military strategic sealift operations in strategic US ports harbors and their approaches under the national port readiness network specifically through military outload protection operations If the corresponding MHD mission requires USCG units conducting military outload protection under MHS authority to counter a specific MHD threat the applicable USCG area commander and JFMCC may request the transfer of forces to CGDEFOR as needed to defeat the threat under SROE For more information on USCG military outload protection see COMDTINST M16600 6 Maritime Security and Response Operations MSRO Manual 7 Maritime Interception Operations Interception Operations EMIO and Boarding MIO Expanded Maritime III-11 Chapter III a MIO are designed to halt the movement of designated items into or out of a nation or area Units involved in MIO not only provide unit presence but may also use reasonable force if a boarding is noncompliant or opposed subject to applicable ROE The specific political geographic and tactical factors and the legal authority on which the MIO are based influence the enforcement procedures Under certain circumstances MIO conducted by a JFC may lead to a DOD-initiated MOTR process if additional interagency authorities capabilities disposition and or application of US jurisdiction are in the USG’s interest b MIO are a USN core mission Most USN ships and USCG cutters are capable of conducting compliant and certain types of noncompliant boardings USN ships and USCG cutters must be augmented by other forces e g SOF USMC maritime raid forces USCG LE detachment or maritime security response team to conduct certain types of noncompliant boardings or to conduct opposed boardings For more information on compliant non-compliant and opposed boardings see NTTP 307 11M CGTTP 3-93 3 Marine Corps Interim Publication MCIP 3-33 04 Visit Board Search and Seizure Operations c Maritime forces may also be tasked to conduct EMIO EMIO are authorized by the President through SecDef to deter degrade disrupt or prevent attacks against the US and its allies EMIO involve interception of targeted personnel or materiel that poses an imminent threat to the US and its allies EMIO may be implemented without sanctions and may involve multinational forces For further reference see NTTP 307 11M CGTTP 3-07 11 MCIP 3-33 04 Visit Board Search and Seizure Operations See also JP 3-03 Joint Interdiction 8 Littoral Operations Both MHS and MHD operations may occur simultaneously in the homeland’s littoral areas The USCG conducts MHS operations at all times to prevent disrupt and respond to terrorism sabotage espionage or subversive acts During a declared MHD mission MHD in the littoral regions includes maritime forces conducting harbor approach defense to protect shipping in designated harbor approach areas to assure unimpeded use of harbor approach areas and application of lethal and nonlethal force under SROE to deny the use of these areas by enemy forces c Air Operations in HD Operations NORAD is assigned the mission of aerospace control including air sovereignty and air defense of the airspace of the US and Canada NORAD routinely maintains forces on alert for homeland air defense CM defense and aerospace control alert missions against long-range incursions Air and missile defenses are discussed under paragraph 6 “Protection ” USNORTHCOM is generally responsible for all other air operations supporting land and MHD outside the scope of the NORAD Agreement 1 NORAD United States Element North American Aerospace Defense Command USELEMNORAD should also be prepared to intercept and defend against terrorist air threats even when the intent to harm the US is uncertain These threats could include commercial or chartered aircraft general aviation ultra-light aerial vehicles III-12 JP 3-27 Planning and Operations for Homeland Defense unmanned aerial systems from commercial to radio-controlled aircraft or even balloons Early detection and successful interception of these types of potential threats requires cooperation and very close coordination with interagency partners including FAA and DHS 2 Aerospace defense operations within the homeland provide some unique concerns for CDRUSNORTHCOM and CDRUSPACOM a Size The GCCs’ HD responsibilities include vast areas of airspace land masses and water In particular North America is a huge land mass with multiple avenues of approach that an adversary could use to advantage b Control of Airspace US airspace is under the control of the FAA Civilian control of airspace as well as other security functions vital to the homeland requires coordination among several USG departments and agencies c Peacetime Environment Operations must be conducted in peacetime as well as in times of crisis d Duration Defense of the homeland involving US and Canadian air land and maritime forces is on a continuous operational basis in peacetime as well as in times of crisis e ROE The airspace over areas of the homeland is congested For example there may be up to 5 000 aircraft at a given time over CONUS ONE operates with strict ROE in this very dense airspace The ROE for operating in US airspace often produce a constrained engagement environment 3 SecDef has designated CDRNORAD as the supported commander for aerospace warning and aerospace control aspects of HD within the NORAD OA a Aerospace warning consists of surveillance detection validation and warning of an attack against North America whether by aircraft missiles or space vehicles Aerospace control consists of air sovereignty and air defense operations within US and Canadian airspace b The OA includes the portions of the homeland that fall within the USNORTHCOM AOR specifically CONUS Alaska the US Virgin Islands and Puerto Rico CDRUSPACOM is the designated CCDR for HD missions within the USPACOM AOR CDRUSNORTHCOM is the supported CCDR for HD missions within the USNORTHCOM AOR that are not under the direction of CDRNORAD 4 The missions of NORAD and USNORTHCOM are complementary NORAD conducts aerospace defense missions and operations within the USNORTHCOM AOR and provides warning of all airborne threats to include aircraft and missile attack as well as maritime threats USNORTHCOM conducts US-only air land and maritime defense The commands work side-by-side and coordinate on many issues NORAD is an integral part of an active layered defense that relies on the early warning of an emerging III-13 Chapter III threat to quickly deploy and execute a decisive response NORAD plays a critical role in the air and space defense of Canada and HD of the US by providing aerospace warning and airspace control and maritime warning for North America a ONE ONE is the operation covering aerospace warning and control aspects of HD for CONUS Alaska the US Virgin Islands and Puerto Rico As the binational element of this operation NORAD is tasked to support ONE by employing the forces and C2 necessary to protect these areas from air attack USPACOM provides C2 through Pacific Air Forces for ONE support to Hawaii and US territories in USPACOM’s AOR b The authority and decision to engage is made at the highest levels of command NORAD constantly refines its procedures and coordinates with DHS Public Safety Canada Emergency Preparedness Canada the FAA and its Canadian equivalent NAV CANADA air traffic control agency and with civilian LE organizations and other government agencies within the US and Canada For a more

CONPLAN 3310 Aerospace Defense Maritime Warning and ONE EXORD d Space Operations in the Conduct of HD The region in space above the US and other countries cannot be owned or possessed like territory However it is USG policy that purposeful interference with US space systems will be viewed as an infringement on the nation’s sovereign rights In order to deter or preempt attacks and to protect military space assets DOD conducts space operations in support of HD DOD defense critical infrastructure DCI activities may be closely related to military space operations given that selected space capabilities may be classified as DCI These activities may serve to protect and defend the US’s ability to operate in and through space CDRUSSTRATCOM is the supported commander for protecting and defending the right to operate in space and is responsible for identifying assessing and securing DOD critical assets in space 1 Enabling Capabilities Military space operations bring enabling capabilities and information to the JFC such as initial threat detections and locations global communication positioning navigation timing real-time weather high-resolution imagery and signals intelligence SIGINT Using the global communication capability the JFC is able to exercise real-time C2 functions and post-mission assessment Satellite communications SATCOM technology can link HD forces with interagency international and other federal state tribal and local partners in support of HD operations This information from space systems provides decision makers advance warning to prevent prepare for respond to and recover from threats to the homeland 2 Roles and Responsibilities a CDRUSSTRATCOM develops desired characteristics and capabilities and advocates plans and conducts space operations These responsibilities are to III-14 JP 3-27 Planning and Operations for Homeland Defense 1 Provide warning and assessment of space attack 2 Support NORAD by providing the missile warning and space surveillance necessary to fulfill the US commitment to the NORAD Agreement 3 Serve as the single point of contact for military space operational matters except as otherwise directed 4 Provide military representation to US national agencies commercial entities and international agencies for matters related to military space operations This will be as directed and in coordination with the CJCS and other CCDRs 5 Coordinate and conduct space planning b CDRUSSTRATCOM established the JFCC Space to serve as the single point of contact for operational space matters including planning tasking directing and executing space operations using assigned space forces c GCCs with geographic HD responsibilities are the supported commanders responsible for conducting HD operations within their respective AORs These include 1 Communicate space capability requirements to JFCC Space through the command’s SCA when acting in an HD capacity 2 Provide FP for space assets located within their respective AORs 3 Integration of Civilian Space Capabilities HD is a high-priority activity which requires the marshalling of all available space capabilities Key to maximizing US space capabilities is the successful integration of civilian space assets with military space capabilities In many cases especially in the area of SATCOM environmental monitoring and some space imagery the contribution of civilian systems provides an integral part of the total US space capabilities The private sector and other civilian space capabilities are essential to the effectiveness of the US’s ability to successfully accomplish the HD mission For additional information refer to JP 3-14 Space Operations e CO in the Conduct of HD The US conducts operations including HD in a complex interconnected and increasingly global OE Cyberspace is a global domain within the information environment consisting of the interdependent network of information technology infrastructures and resident data including the Internet telecommunications networks computer systems and embedded processors and controllers 1 The NMS for CO and the DOD Cyber Strategy offers a comprehensive strategy for DOD to enhance US superiority in cyberspace The NMS for CO addresses three main roles defense of the nation national incident response and CIP GCCs with geographic HD responsibilities should ensure unified action at the theater level for CO III-15 Chapter III This includes coordinating with multinational and interagency partners as outlined in strategy policy and agreements DOD Cyber Strategy instructs DOD to be prepared to defend the US homeland and US vital interests from disruptive or destructive cyberspace attacks of significance consequence JFCs employ cyberspace capabilities to achieve objectives in or through cyberspace Such operations include OCO DCO and protection of the DODIN 2 National Infrastructure Protection through CO a The security and effective operations of US critical infrastructure— including energy banking and finance transportation communication and the defense industrial base DIB —rely on cyberspace e g industrial control systems and information technology are vulnerable to disruption or exploitation b DHS’s National Cybersecurity and Communications Integration Center is a continuous cyberspace situational awareness incident response and management center that is a national nexus of cyberspace and communications integration for the USG IC and LEAs For more information on DHS’s role in CO see https www dhs gov topic cybersecurity c As LFA for the maritime transportation system under the DHS National Infrastructure Protection Plan the USCG leads overall unity of effort required to protect the maritime transportation sector from cyberspace attacks while supporting DODIN operations For more information on USCG roles in CO see the USCG Cyber Strategy at https www uscg mil seniorleadership DOCS cyber pdf 3 NG support to CO at the state level consists of CO squadrons within the ANG and cyber protection teams within the ARNG For additional information refer to JP 3-12 Cyberspace Operations f Information Operations IO in the Conduct of HD IO are the integrated employment during military operations of information-related capabilities in concert with other lines of operation to influence disrupt corrupt or usurp the decision making of threats while protecting our own Information-related capabilities include some already discussed separately such as space operations and CO but also includes such capabilities as MISO electronic warfare combat camera operations security and military deception IO complements HD movement and maneuver in all domains by generating effects in the information environment that give the JFC a decisive advantage in any and all of its dimensions physical informational and cognitive IO also plays a significant role in the JFC’s communication synchronization 1 The information environment supports the HD framework The information environment is made up of the physical informational and cognitive dimensions The physical dimension is composed of C2 systems key decision makers and supporting III-16 JP 3-27 Planning and Operations for Homeland Defense infrastructure that enable individuals and organizations to create effects The informational dimension specifies where and how information is collected processed stored disseminated and protected The cognitive dimension encompasses the minds of those who transmit receive and respond to or act on information Information-related capabilities such as MISO as part of commander’s communication synchronization are used to create effects in the information environment 2 DODIN As part of the overall information environment the DODIN represents the set of information capabilities associated processes and personnel for collecting processing storing disseminating and managing information on demand to warfighters policy makers and support personnel whether interconnected or stand alone The DODIN includes all owned and leased communications and computing systems and services software including applications data security services and other associated services and national security systems a Consistent with laws and policy Services DOD agencies and non-DOD agencies should provide capabilities to support CCMD requirements to ensure the interoperability availability and shared situational awareness and understanding of the HD information environment This includes capabilities to detect deter prevent and defeat virtual and physical attacks against DODIN infrastructure that directly or indirectly supports HD missions b There are three primary aspects to providing available and effective systems to execute HD These are providing a reliable robust HD communication system improving information sharing among HD mission partners and assuring and defending the critical DODIN infrastructure against threats and aggression For more information on DODIN see JP 3-12 Cyberspace Operations and JP 6-0 Joint Communications System 1 The communications system enables centralized planning and the coordinated and mutually supporting employment of forces and assets It includes command centers operations centers processing and distribution centers and their associated systems deployed systems and data sources Systems or information and decisions generated by them should be shared to the maximum extent possible to ensure synchronization of effort among mission partners For example the common operational picture COP facilitates decentralized execution in rapidly changing OEs and should be shared among appropriate agencies to include LE to ensure consistent situational awareness 2 Commercial infrastructure plays a critical role in enabling the communication systems that directly support HD operations This infrastructure may be damaged to the point that military and supporting operations are adversely affected DOD must identify capabilities that can help bridge the gap until local infrastructure is restored These capabilities must be highly mobile rapidly deployable and commercially interoperable III-17 Chapter III 3 The GCC AORs are rich with existing commercial communications systems that can be leveraged to the maximum extent possible For example commercial cellular capabilities represent a choice medium that can provide immediate capability DOD communications systems will serve as the backbone in support of HD operations Systems that are scalable interoperable and complementary with those used by multinational and civilian partners will be essential to augment traditional intelligence collection and C2 nodes especially in the early phases of military operations These communications must be mobile secure and voice and data capable Wireless voice data and video are critical to effective C2 Planning for the integration of spectrum resource allocation will enable DOD federal state local and tribal responders international organizations and NGOs and private sector responders to operate on the same bandwidth to facilitate interoperability Planning for the secure integration of internationally donated telecommunications resources including hardware and SATCOM bandwidth must be conducted in the event the USG accepts offers of international aid 4 The Radio Amateur Civil Emergency Service provides emergency communications for civil defense organizations as authorized by Title 47 Code of Federal Regulations Part 97 Section 97 407 For more information on spectrum management see JP 6-01 Joint Electromagnetic Spectrum Management Operations and for more information on joint electromagnetic spectrum operations see JDN 3-16 Joint Electromagnetic Spectrum g Joint Reception Staging Onward Movement and Integration JRSOI JRSOI is the essential process that assembles personnel equipment and materiel after movement or deployment into forces capable of meeting the CCDR’s operational requirements In the USNORTHCOM AOR portions of JRSOI are not regarded as discrete steps necessary for HD operations 1 JRSOI for a large force can will most likely require resources beyond that of the designated base support installation BSI The supported CCDR should request sufficient JRSOI support to ensure the designated BSI can perform JRSOI 2 Reception operations include all those functions required to receive and clear unit personnel equipment and materiel through the BSI or reception area For HD operations within the USNORTHCOM AOR the personnel equipment and materiel will likely originate from within the JOA In that case personnel equipment and materiel are already accounted for at the home base making the home base essentially the point of departure Component support plans should address processes for in-place personnel reporting to the CJTF 3 Similar to reception personnel equipment and materiel to be employed for HD operations within the USNORTHCOM AOR may stage within the confines of their home installation Otherwise arriving personnel equipment and materiel may be temporarily held at a BSI or other location while they are staged assembled and organized into forces and capabilities in preparation for onward movement III-18 JP 3-27 Planning and Operations for Homeland Defense 4 Onward movement is the process of moving units and accompanying materiel from reception facilities marshalling areas and staging areas to tactical assembly areas TAAs OAs or other theater destinations Because units and forces employed in HD operations within the USNORTHCOM AOR are likely to be geographically close to the JOAs the TAA can be located at the unit’s or force’s home base Onward movement in many instances can be accomplished concurrently with reception and staging activities at the home base When a unit or force is not geographically close to an OA and a TAA other than the home base is desired then discrete onward movement activities would be required Oftentimes a TAA would be located at a designated BSI that would provide logistics support and be located near the OA 5 Integration is the synchronized handoff of units into an operational commander’s force prior to mission execution HD operations within the USNORTHCOM AOR often require complex C2 structures Special attention to integration synchronization and coordination is required Refer to Appendix A “Relationships Between Homeland Security Homeland Defense and Defense Support of Civil Authorities ” h Movement in Support of HD Deployment operations within the homeland can be extremely time compressed The national importance of these missions is reflected in the elevated movement priorities that can be invoked by the President or SecDef United States Transportation Command USTRANSCOM can quickly assemble aircraft and flight crews for operations where expedited passenger movement is required Surface transportation commercial and organic can be a viable option in those situations where the distance between the home station and the OA is relatively short Coordination with NGB is essential when using ANG ARNG assets for support of HD In some instances state and federal forces may be in the same OA Coordination between state and federal forces should occur to achieve unity of effort For more information on JRSOI see JP 3-35 Deployment and Redeployment Operations 7 Protection The protection function focuses on conserving the joint force’s fighting potential in four primary ways active defensive measures employed outside the defended area that protect the joint force its information its bases necessary infrastructure and lines of communications from an enemy’s attack by employing limited offensive action and counterattacks passive defensive measures employed within a defended area that make friendly forces systems and facilities difficult to locate strike and destroy and to minimize damage from enemy attacks application of technology and procedures to reduce the risk of friendly fire and emergency management and response to reduce the loss of personnel and capabilities due to an all-hazards incident It includes but extends beyond FP to encompass protection of US noncombatants the forces systems and civil infrastructure of friendly nations and other USG departments and agencies international organizations and NGOs Planning for HD includes combating terrorism criminal enterprises environmental threats hazards and CO Joint intelligence preparation of the OE must be conducted to ensure adequate planning and implementation of protection III-19 Chapter III measures A separate directorate may be established for interagency coordination for HD planning due to intelligence limitations in the homeland and the vast amount of information the interagency partners can provide For additional information on the protection function see JP 3-0 Joint Operations For more information on DOD AT and FP programs refer to DODI 2000 12 DOD Antiterrorism AT Program DODI O-2000 16 Volume 1 DOD Antiterrorism AT Program Implementation DOD AT Standards DODI O-2000 16 Volume 2 DOD Antiterrorism AT Program Implementation DOD Force Protection FPCON System and JP 3-07 2 Antiterrorism a IAMD IAMD is the integration of capabilities and overlapping operations to defend the homeland and US national interests protect the joint force and enable freedom of action by negating the adversary’s ability to create adverse effects from their air and missile capabilities Due to policy differences and legal agreements and physical characteristics of threats air and missile defense are not integrated in the same manner as air and missile defense in other GCCs’ AORs NORAD USNORTHCOM and USPACOM share the missions of air defense and missile defense for the homeland and C2 of forces are integrated at the CCDR level The NORAD and USNORTHCOM Command Center coordinates air and missile fires As explained in Chapter I “Fundamentals of Homeland Defense ” CDRNORAD is tasked to provide aerospace warning aerospace control and maritime warning for North America while CDRUSNORTHCOM is tasked to provide BMD and all other forms of HD within the AOR Although CDRUSNORTHCOM is normally designated CDRNORAD the commands are distinct entities CDRUSPACOM is responsible for HD within the USPACOM AOR including air and missile defense USPACOM supports USNORTHCOM for certain limited BMD defense options for example the defense of Hawaii For further discussions on missile defense refer to JP 3-01 Countering Air and Missile Threats 1 Air Defense CDRNORAD is tasked to provide aerospace control for North America which includes surveillance and control of Canadian and US airspace as well as ensuring air sovereignty and air defense against aircraft and CMs NORAD has the responsibility to protect the US and Canadian homelands against military or civilian airborne threats For more detailed discussions on air and missile defense refer to JP 3-01 Countering Air and Missile Threats a Aircraft To accomplish the aerospace control mission NORAD uses a network of satellites ground-based radar airborne radar and fighters to detect intercept and if necessary engage any air-breathing threat to Canada and the US b CMs CMs are air-breathing threats capable of delivering a full range of warheads from conventional to WMD Because they are air breathing threats CMs are III-20 JP 3-27 Planning and Operations for Homeland Defense part of the air defense role executed by NORAD CMs present significant detection difficulties due to standoff range and very small radar cross-section c Other Threats UA are a growing threat to the US and Canadian homelands Larger UA threats are prosecuted in the same manner as other military or civilian-based air threats Smaller UA threats are addressed through cooperation efforts with federal state and local agencies A terrorist attack using an aircraft as a weapon continues to be a threat to the homeland 2 NCR-IADS Defense of the NCR is a special case of air defense in the homeland DOD employs an integrated air defense system sensors weapons visual warning system C2 systems and personnel as part of the around-the-clock multilayered military and interagency effort to protect the NCR a The NCR-IADS augments ONE fighter defenses by providing in-place assets which are in a quick reaction posture to protect the seat of the USG as well as other key locations in the NCR from air attacks b The Transportation Security Administration TSA and other elements of DHS as well as DOJ and DOT conduct significant aviation security efforts throughout the US and in the NCR Principal among the efforts designed to improve interagency coordination is the National Capital Region Coordination Center NCRCC sponsored by TSA The NCRCC enhances interagency coordination by providing a venue for representatives of the many organizations with a stake in the defense of the NCR to stand watch together Through the NCRCC various agencies have improved situational awareness regarding the actions of their defense partners The NCRCC is a coordination center and no command or control of forces occurs NCRCC participants include the FBI TSA FAA US Capitol Police US Secret Service US Customs and Border Protection Office of Air and Marine Operations USCG JFHQ-NCR and NORAD Representatives from other state and local LEAs and the Joint Air Defense Operations Center JADOC also participate at the NCRCC when threats or circumstances warrant For additional information on air operations refer to JP 3-01 Countering Air and Missile Threats JP 3-30 Command and Control of Joint Air Operations and JP 3-52 Joint Airspace Control 3 BMD BMD capabilities are designed to detect deter prevent and defeat adversary ballistic missile threats and help protect the US domestic population and critical infrastructure US homeland BMD includes not only the means for active and passive defenses but the capability to strike in retaliation or to preempt the launch of a missile threat For HD there are BMD capabilities against limited attacks by rogue states using ICBMs and capabilities against threats from short-range ballistic missiles medium-range ballistic missiles and intermediate-range ballistic missiles ICBM threats are deterred by US capabilities that include global strike BMD is a key element of HD However BMD activities do not include defense against CMs or tactical air-to-surface missiles III-21 Chapter III a BMD System The BMD system includes the sensors air land sea and space anti-ballistic missiles communications and C2 for launch warnings and assessment for all categories of ballistic missile launches whether targeted against the homeland or other AORs The ground-based midcourse defense GMD element of the BMD system provides USNORTHCOM the capability to engage and destroy limited intermediate- and long-range ballistic missile threats in space to protect the US The GMD system is composed of ground-based interceptors and associated sensors and fire control systems The ground-based interceptor is a multi-stage solid fuel booster with a lethal payload Fire control systems consist of redundant fire control nodes interceptor launch facilities and a communications network b BMD Roles and Responsibilities GCCs are responsible for planning and executing BMD against ballistic missile threats that target their AORs to include threats that cross AOR boundaries This is supported by shared situational awareness integrated battle management adaptive planning and accurate and responsive battle damage assessment The following have specific BMD responsibilities to support HD 1 USNORTHCOM and USPACOM have specified HD responsibilities and authority to deter ballistic missile attacks on the US its territories and bases within their respective AORs and other areas as directed by the President or SecDef In coordination with other CCMDs they synchronize operations to detect deter prevent and defeat ballistic missile attack on the homeland Should deterrence fail and or as directed by the President or SecDef they employ BMD forces to protect the US against ballistic missile attacks CDRUSNORTHCOM in coordination with CDRUSPACOM has responsibilities within the USPACOM AOR to ensure homeland BMD Employing the GMD system requires centralized planning and direction by CDRUSNORTHCOM and centralized execution due to the required positive direction from the weapons release authority WRA WRA is the authority delegated from the President to use ground-based interceptors against ICBM threats CDRUSPACOM is the supported commander for homeland BMD that does not include GMD 2 The NG provides BMD-trained personnel to USNORTHCOM The 100th Missile Defense Brigade Ground-based Midcourse Defense is a multi-component brigade consisting of Active Component AC Army and ANG Soldiers in Colorado California and Alaska who are tasked with the mission of defending the homeland from limited ICBM attacks The 100th operates the GMD while under OPCON of CDRUSNORTHCOM 4 Space Operations and BMD Space operations are considered critical enabling activities for BMD For example space-based surveillance and sensor capabilities provide ballistic missile early warning assist in intelligence gathering and facilitate tracking inbound missiles For further space operation considerations refer to JP 3-14 Space Operations b CIP III-22 JP 3-27 Planning and Operations for Homeland Defense 1 DCI DCI consists of DOD and non-DOD networked assets essential to project support and sustain military forces and operations worldwide Assets are people physical entities or information Physical assets include infrastructure such as installations facilities ports bridges power stations telecommunication lines and pipelines most of which will not be located on USG property a Examples of DCI include strategic military bases ports of embarkation ports of debarkation and mobilization staging and storage areas plus rail and trucking transportation centers Protection and defense of non-DOD facilities is normally coordinated with federal state tribal and local LEAs However if directed by the President DOD may be tasked to provide the forces and have the overall responsibility to defend these facilities as a constitutional exception to the PCA HD includes the protection of critical DOD networks and when directed national networks against threats and aggression This includes DOD critical information infrastructure It is accomplished through physical and virtual protection State and local governments also are interested in securing CI KR so coordination of physical virtual protection measures should be part of the USG efforts b Mission Assurance and the DIB Mission assurance is the process to protect or ensure the continued function and resilience of capabilities and assets—including personnel equipment facilities networks information and information systems infrastructure and supply chains—critical to the execution of DOD mission-essential functions in any OE or condition Mission assurance focuses on the “protection ” “continued function ” and “rapid reconstitution” of critical assets which support mission essential functions rather than the execution of these missions themselves Threats to nonDOD government and commercially owned infrastructure facilities and capabilities to include the DIB can jeopardize DOD HD mission execution Mission assurance focused only on assessing and protecting or enhancing resilience against DOD-specific vulnerabilities will fail Thus it is necessary to comprehensively assess and mitigate risk in a way that accounts for DOD dependence on civilian assets and systems and the cascading consequences of their disruption These include but are not limited to transportation networks global supply chains electric power telecommunications and information technology infrastructures Simultaneously one must also recognize the lead role of other USG departments and agencies especially DHS the Department of Energy DOE and DOT in coordinating risk mitigation for threats to civilian infrastructure c All CCDRs in coordination with DOD asset owners DOD components and the defense infrastructure sector lead agents take action to prevent or mitigate the loss or degradation of DOD-owned DCI within their assigned AOR For more information concerning CIP and the DCIP see DODD 3020 40 Mission Assurance MA and DODI 5220 22 National Industrial Security Program 2 CI KR As stated in the Critical Infrastructure and Key Resources Support Annex to the NRF “CI KR includes those assets systems networks and functions— physical or virtual—so vital to the US that their incapacitation or destruction would have a debilitating impact on HS national economic security public health or safety or any III-23 Chapter III combination of those matters Key resources are publicly or privately controlled resources essential to minimal operation of the economy and the government ” An attack on CI KR could significantly disrupt the functioning of government and business alike and produce cascading effects far beyond the physical location of the incident Although DOD’s role is normally one of administrative and logistical support to DHS or another sector-specific agency through DSCA or direct MHS support in certain circumstances the President may direct DOD to provide military protection to CI KR For further information see PPD-25 Guideline for US Government Interagency Response to Terrorist Threats or Incidents in the US and Overseas HSPD-7 Critical Infrastructure Identification Prioritization and Protection the National Strategy for Physical Protection of Critical Infrastructure and Key Assets the National Infrastructure Protection Plan and HSPD-23 NSPD-54 US Cyber Security Policy See also the NRF at https www fema gov national-planning-frameworks c CWMD 1 WMD capabilities are of particular concern to the USG Threats may use WMD as a tool to inflict mass casualties on homeland civilian populations or cause disruption or destruction to critical infrastructure 2 CWMD as a part of HD is a global mission with potential consequences that cross AOR boundaries CWMD requires an integrated and synchronized effort from numerous interagency and multinational partners for effective mission accomplishment CWMD is a continuous effort that requires a coordinated unified effort to curtail the conceptualization development possession proliferation use and effects of WMDrelated expertise materials and technologies 3 CWMD contributes to HD through an integrated approach to reduce incentives to pursue possess and employ WMD increase the barriers to WMD development acquisition advancement proliferation and use manage WMD risks emanating from hostile fragile or failed states non-state actors and safe havens and deny the effects of current and emerging WMD threats through layered integrated defenses 4 CWMD includes DOD CBRN Response Enterprise which has the primary mission to detect and respond to WMD incidents in the homeland For more information on CWMD see JP 3-40 Countering Weapons of Mass Destruction JP 3-41 Chemical Biological Radiological and Nuclear Response and JP 3-11 Operations in Chemical Biological Radiological and Nuclear Environments d CO and DODIN Operations Each CCMD Service and DOD agency contributes to overall HD cybersecurity by rigorous implementation of cybersecurity policies and procedures CCMDs Services and DOD agencies employ appropriate cyberspace security actions to prevent intrusions and defeat other adversary activities on DOD networks and systems that are not a part of what is specifically defined as the DODIN There are subordinate HQs of USCYBERCOM that execute C2 of the Cyber Mission Force and other cyberspace forces These include the Cyber National Mission Force-Headquarters the III-24 JP 3-27 Planning and Operations for Homeland Defense Joint Force Headquarters-Department of Defense Information Network joint force HQcyberspace and Service cyberspace component commands Each of the Service cyberspace component commanders is dual-hatted by Commander USCYBERCOM as a commander of one of the four joint force HQs-cyberspace to enable synchronization of CO C2 In addition there are other centers and staff elements that further enable unity of command for CO Due to the close interdependencies DOD and IC components have on each other’s networks it is essential reporting procedures be in place to ensure rapid coordination in cyberspace defense Reporting on IC networks comes from the IC through USCYBERCOM and is shared with the CCDRs with geographic HD responsibilities For more information on CO see JP 3-12 Cyberspace Operations e FP GCCs are responsible for FP within their respective AORs FP includes actions taken to prevent or mitigate hostile actions against DOD personnel to include family members resources facilities and critical information It does not include actions to defeat the enemy or protect against accidents weather or disease All GCCs have FP responsibilities including those with AORs which contain geographic areas of the homeland Force health protection FHP the protection component of health services complements FP and includes all measures to ensure a healthy and fit force prevent injury and illness and protect the force from health hazards 1 AT and FP GCCs have overall AT responsibility within their respective AORs except for those DOD elements and personnel for whom another commander has security responsibility pursuant to law or a memorandum of agreement The AT program is designed to prevent and detect terrorist attacks against DOD personnel their families facilities resources installations and DCI as well as to prepare to defend against and plan the response to the consequences of terrorist incidents TACON for FP applies to all DOD personnel assigned permanently or temporarily transiting through or performing exercises or training in the GCC’s AOR GCCs have the authority to modify FP conditions for covered individuals CDRUSNORTHCOM has overall DOD AT program and FP responsibility in CONUS USNORTHCOM’s FP mission and AT program are outlined in the USNORTHCOM Instruction 10-222 Force Protection Mission and Antiterrorism Program For additional information see JP 3-07 2 Antiterrorism 2 FHP FHP provides the framework for optimizing health readiness and protecting Service members from all health threats In general US states and territories are normally at low risk for endemic diseases although pandemic disease outbreaks have the potential to rapidly place the US military and wider population at risk Additionally some areas within the homeland are heavily industrialized and have the potential for deliberate or accidental release of a large variety of toxic industrial chemicals materials at production sites and during transportation Furthermore WMD attacks pose unique FHP risks due to the health effects and threats of CBRN agents Thus man-made hazards deliberate or accidental may present the greatest potential health risk to forces conducting HD operations III-25 Chapter III For more on FHP see JP 4-02 Joint Health Services f Combating terrorism includes AT and CT actions taken to oppose terrorism throughout the entire threat spectrum The broad USG strategy is to continue to lead an international effort to deny violent extremist organizations the resources and functions they need to operate and survive CT activities and operations are taken to neutralize terrorists their organizations and networks in order to render them incapable of using violence to instill fear and coerce governments or societies to achieve their goals DOD’s strategy for combating terrorism implements the following objectives from the National Strategy for Combating Terrorism which are derived from the NSS 1 Thwart or defeat terrorist attacks against the US its PNs and its interests 2 Attack and disrupt terrorist networks abroad so as to cause adversaries to be incapable or unwilling to attack the US homeland allies or interests 3 Deny terrorist networks access to WMD 4 Establish conditions that allow PNs to govern their territory effectively and defeat terrorists 5 Deny a hospitable environment to violent extremists For more information on countering threat networks and CT refer to JP 3-25 Countering Threat Networks and JP 3-26 Counterterrorism 8 Sustainment a Personnel 1 The core functional responsibilities of the manpower and personnel directorate of a joint staff J-1 are accomplished during any HD or other operation and are tailored to meet mission-specific requirements 2 Personnel Support The authorities and responsibilities for personnel support to HD operations are largely the same as those for any other DOD mission set Some exceptions may apply to the USNORTHCOM AOR a Personnel Accountability Personnel accountability is a command responsibility Personnel accountability strength reporting and manpower management are the focal points for a joint force J-1 during HD operations HD operations in CONUS pose specific challenges For example units deploy from their home stations instead of from a unique designated port of embarkation Service personnel elements supporting home station deployments must ensure all processing and reporting requirements are met prior to unit deployment In specific circumstances such as operations in a CBRN environment the employing CJTF may establish a joint personnel reception center to ensure arriving units are ready for employment III-26 JP 3-27 Planning and Operations for Homeland Defense b Individual Augmentation Tactical capabilities are provided by organic unit force structure wherever possible and the request vehicle for this type of requirement is the RFF Individual subject matter experts may be required to augment operational C2 organizations The request vehicle for joint individual augmentation is a CCDR-approved and Joint Staff-validated joint manning document Joint individual augmentees are not QRFs but are a result of planning for contingencies if the contingency for the unique task organization is projected to last longer than 90-120 days For detailed guidance refer to CJCSI 1301 01 Joint Individual Augmentation Procedures c Personnel Accountability in Conjunction with Disasters Attacks on the US can affect DOD personnel and their dependents Service components account for and report the status of all DOD-affiliated military and civilian personnel including contractors and all family members immediately following a disaster or attack Additionally Service components should be prepared to report the number of Service members DOD civilians DOD contractors and their dependents requiring evacuation from an affected area See DODI 3001 02 Personnel Accountability in Conjunction With Natural or Manmade Disasters For detailed guidance on personnel support see JP 1-0 Joint Personnel Support b Logistics The authorities and responsibilities for logistics operations in support of HD are largely the same as any other DOD mission set Some notable exceptions however apply to HD operations within the US More specifically the exceptions apply to the USNORTHCOM AOR 1 JP 1 Doctrine for the Armed Forces of the United States states “exercise of directive authority for logistics by a CCDR includes the authority to delegate authority to issue directives to subordinate commanders” and “CCDRs exercise COCOM over assigned forces ” Within the USNORTHCOM AOR the CDRUSNORTHCOM executes OPCON or TACON over attached forces normally without directive authority for logistics Given the robust capabilities within each Service component DOD combat support agency CSA and the commercial contracting infrastructure in USNORTHCOM AOR directive authority for logistics is not necessary to execute the HD mission CDRUSNORTHCOM has theater- and operational-assigned and allocated logistical forces and capabilities executing OPCON of those forces via Service component HQs CDRUSNORTHCOM may still exercise directive authority for logistics in responding to an HD threat the President or SecDef may also extend this authority to attached forces when transferring those forces for a specific mission 2 Implementation and execution of logistics functions remain the responsibility of the Services and the Service component commanders Each Service is responsible for the logistics support of its own forces except when logistics support is otherwise provided by agreements with national agencies allies or another Service 3 In the case where multiple agencies PNs international organizations NGOs and private sector entities are involved in HD operations each is ultimately responsible for III-27 Chapter III BASE SUPPORT INSTALLATION A base support installation BSI when approved by the Secretary of Defense serves as the main logistical hub for military support operations in the US and its territories Although joint forces may arrive through multiple reception sites near the joint operations area JOA generally the logistics support is provided by the BSI Typically most forces will deploy through and the majority of sustainment will be positioned at the BSI A BSI will normally have the following characteristics a logistics requisitioning activity an airfield or nearby airport and communications infrastructure sufficient to meet the surge of forces into an operational area dry open areas for staging of supplies and equipment a good road network health and other life-support services e g billeting food service and force protection and proximity to the JOA to remain responsive and flexible to the needs of the joint force Various Sources providing logistics support for their own personnel However the GCC should strive to integrate efforts through the use of acquisition and cross-servicing agreements along with associated implementing arrangements to ensure needed logistics support Optimizing the capabilities should result in greater flexibility more options and more effective logistics support In allocation of logistics support to HD activities unit force activity designators should be reviewed for possible improvement or downgrade based on mission criticality 4 Logistic Capabilities Responsibilities for logistics as described in JP 4-0 Joint Logistics apply to HD operations as follows a Supply USNORTHCOM will synchronize Service component and CSA logistics supply capabilities to support the joint force b Maintenance Operations Service components and CSAs will maintain administrative and coordination responsibilities for maintenance operations within the USNORTHCOM AOR c Deployment and Distribution HD airlift priorities are outlined in CJCSI 4120 02 List of Priorities -- DOD Transportation Movement Priority System The national importance of included mission areas is reflected in the elevated movement priorities that can be applied to them by the President or SecDef For operations that demand expedited movement CDRUSTRANSCOM maintains on-call readiness levels necessary to meet CDRUSNORTHCOM mission requirements The North American Aerospace Defense Command and United States Northern Command Deployment and Distribution Operations Cell NDDOC is embedded within the Joint Logistics Operations Center and is composed of personnel from NORAD USNORTHCOM and national partners as required e g USTRANSCOM Defense Logistics Agency DLA the Services and other organizations It is established as directed by CDRUSNORTHCOM to support HD and DSCA operations and operates under the direction of the NORAD and USNORTHCOM logistics and engineering directorate The NDDOC implements command movement priorities anticipates and resolves transportation shortfalls III-28 JP 3-27 Planning and Operations for Homeland Defense prioritizes transportation assets synchronizes deployment force flow and distribution and provides in-transit visibility d Combat Service Support CSS CSS is a Service responsibility It enhances combat capability and improves productivity by providing life-sustaining and essential service CSS also provides critical supply maintenance and transportation services to enable the operating force to conduct HD missions Additionally CSS supports force reception and beddown during military operations The primary focus of the CSS effort in HD is to sustain and assist employed DOD forces The primary method for common-user logistics support or sustainment is normally accomplished through the supporting BSI e Operational Contract Support OCS OCS provides the CCDR the tools and processes to manage the variety of services that may be required Within OCS are contract support integration contractor management and contracting support For more information on OCS see JP 4-10 Operational Contract Support and DODI 3120 41 Operational Contract Support c Engineering Military engineering support may be required simultaneously for HD and DSCA operations The primary focus of the engineering effort will be to sustain and assist DOD forces employed in HD The secondary effort will be DSCA when requested and approved IAW DOD guidance and applicable plans The scope of engineering support for HD focuses on mobility FP construction force beddown geospatial engineering and emergency stabilization and repair of damaged DOD critical infrastructure The duration and scope of DOD engineer involvement will be directly related to the severity and magnitude of the threat situation or event Engineer planners should develop plans with forces capable of initial tasks and priority of effort Engineer efforts in HD may evolve into DSCA engineer actions Whether the focus is HD or DSCA engineering missions may require the use of Service members or contracted services For additional information on engineer organizations and assets of Services see JP 3-34 Joint Engineer Operations d Environmental Considerations Military commanders employ environmentally responsible practices that minimize adverse impacts to human health and the environment During all operations plans will be developed to reduce or eliminate negative impacts on the environment and to minimize negative impacts to mission accomplishment caused by environmental degradation Contingency planning for HD must include environmental considerations in planning and executing operations Operational alternatives that minimize damage to the natural environment or cultural historic resources must be considered HD actions undertaken during crisis are considered emergency actions whereby national security and protection of life or property are at risk HD response in crisis circumstances may make it necessary to take immediate actions without preparing the normal environmental planning documents however compliance with applicable federal state tribal and local laws to the maximum extent possible during crisis III-29 Chapter III circumstances is still a DOD objective Commands will initiate actions to curtail further environmental damage and to resolve environmental impacts For additional information on environmental considerations see JP 3-34 Joint Engineer Operations e Mortuary Affairs MA USNORTHCOM and USPACOM may be required to conduct MA for US allied or adversary casualties of HD operations See JP 4-06 Mortuary Affairs for details on employment of DOD MA assets in DSCA mass-fatality management CBRN response and HD operations f Religious Support RS RS during HD missions is conducted by a religious support team RST consisting of one chaplain and an enlisted assistant of the same service Guidance for RSTs operating during a HD mission is described in Joint Guide JG 1-05 Religious Affairs in Joint Operations In addition RSTs will ensure they understand and adhere to all echelons of guidance such as Service policy and doctrine command direction and legal counsel regarding permissible chaplain activities Upon the assessment and direction of the unit commander RSTs may receive additional RS duties to assist other commands The primary role and mission of the RST during HD is to support authorized personnel However RSTs may provide RS to persons unaffiliated with the Services absent other RS providers and with proper command authority and tasking consistent with the guidelines in JG 1-05 Religious Affairs in Joint Operations See JG 1-05 Religious Affairs in Joint Operations for details g Joint Health Services The objective of health services is to provide lifesaving measures as well as prevention protection and treatment capabilities to mitigate the risk of disease nonbattle injuries and battle injuries to support mission accomplishment Joint health service provides joint medical capabilities to ensure the seamless delivery of medical support for military forces 1 DOD coordinates employs and integrates medical response through the capabilities of care first responder care forward resuscitative care theater hospitalization and definitive care 2 As part of planning activities and prior to deployment to an HD event commands should conduct predeployment health assessments to ensure medical and dental requirements are current Specific activities concerning exams predeployment sample collections issuance of medications training on equipment and devices e g respirator fittings and record-keeping should be assessed 3 DOD medical assets and organizations may also be involved in support to local and state health providers in dealing with the aftermath of a CBRN attack and other large-scale casualty-producing attacks As part of HD there may be a requirement to augment civilian medical capabilities in the handling of casualties resulting from CBRN attacks or other toxic materials release The ability of state and local medical facilities to III-30 JP 3-27 Planning and Operations for Homeland Defense handle mass casualties from CBRN effects must be assessed and factored into DOD planning For additional information see JP 3-28 Defense Support of Civil Authorities and JP 402 Joint Health Services 9 Other Activities and Efforts a Arctic Region The overarching strategic national security objective in the Arctic is a stable and secure region where US national interests are safeguarded and the US homeland is protected This objective is consistent with current international law and diplomatic engagement but also with demonstrated ability and commitment to defend the northern approaches to North America 1 DOD takes steps to anticipate and prepare for Arctic operations Capabilities are reevaluated as conditions change and gaps are addressed in order to prepare for operations in a more accessible Arctic Key challenges include shortfalls in ice and weather reporting and forecasting limitations in C2 communications computer connectivity intelligence harsh environmental conditions limited inventory of ice-capable vessels and limited shore-based infrastructure The US has a vital Arctic neighbor and partner in Canada with its shared values and interests in the region DOD works with the Canadian Department of National Defence to ensure common Arctic interests are addressed in a complementary manner 2 There are two GCCs with Arctic responsibilities CDRUSEUCOM and CDRUSNORTHCOM are each responsible for a portion of the Arctic Ocean aligned with adjacent land boundaries—an arrangement suited to achieve unity of effort with key regional partners b Information Sharing 1 The objective of information sharing is to achieve seamless access to a trusted information sharing environment throughout the AOR and between CCDRs A collaborative environment among domestic and international military and nonmilitary i e LEA HD mission partners is particularly critical to facilitating information sharing and interoperability It provides the ability to create and share data information and knowledge needed to plan execute and assess joint force operations in support of HD thereby enabling a commander to make decisions faster than the adversary The speed with which information is gained processed and if necessary sanitized for required dissemination and or sharing and understood influences how well we engage targets 2 Proper organization of the battle staff support structure is another way to synchronize and share information In an adaptive HQ model for example the staff reorganizes from its normal functional areas of personnel intelligence operations logistics plans and communications to working groups that address current operations future operations joint plans joint support and interorganizational coordination The organization must also transcend culture policy and technical barriers to be effective III-31 Chapter Intentionally Blank JP 3-27 APPENDIX A RELATIONSHIPS BETWEEN HOMELAND SECURITY HOMELAND DEFENSE AND DEFENSE SUPPORT OF CIVIL AUTHORITIES 1 General a Achieving Unity of Effort Through HS HD and DSCA Perhaps one of the greatest challenges for a military staff is conducting military operations in or near the homeland that integrate into the overall USG unity of effort to secure and defend the homeland This effort entails USG departments or agencies inherent authorities and jurisdiction at the federal state and local level which DOD may support directly by providing forces or capabilities to HS operations through DSCA or if the magnitude of threat exceeds the capabilities of the HS enterprise through HD operations These TMM challenges are set against the evolving range of threats to the homeland countering diverse threat networks transregional terrorist organizations potential nation state and individual threats both internal and external to the US This appendix provides additional context and considerations for the JFC and military staffs that plan and execute HD and DSCA missions or otherwise directly support HS Figure A-1 depicts the relationship between HD DSCA and HS missions and provides examples of the types of operations that can take place for each mission Those missions could be conducted in a simultaneous nearsimultaneous or sequential fashion across the threat spectrum within or near the homeland A full range of threats and hazards confronts the homeland However many threats may not require a DOD-led response and may only require a response from one or more USG departments or agencies Depending on the type of threat and its magnitude the lead and supporting relationships may vary across the specific types of operations that can take place for each mission HD DSCA and HS operations may occur in parallel and require extensive synchronization 1 Threat Characterization The characterization of a particular threat and the designated response agencies and modes ultimately rests with the President To prepare for wide-ranging contingencies the USG has developed specific protocols and response options that address the coordination integration and responsibilities of the USG departments and agencies to respond to the full spectrum of threats and hazards Codification of these strategies processes and procedures is found in documents such as the National Strategy for Maritime Security and US Aviation Security Policy and their respective supporting plans These types of processes aid both the military and civil authorities to identify the organizations best suited to achieve the USG’s desired outcome given the unique circumstances of the event 2 Transitioning Between HD DSCA and HS In addition operations may also transition from HD to DSCA to HS or vice versa e g maritime security with the lead depending on the situation and USG’s desired outcome as depicted in Figure A-1 While the lead may transition a single agency will always have the lead at any given time for a particular activity However in the areas of overlapping responsibility the designation of LFA may not be predetermined In time-critical situations on-scene leaders are empowered to conduct appropriate operations in response to a particular threat The MOTR protocols provide guidance for maritime security which can transition between A-1 Appendix A Relationships Between Homeland Defense Defense Support of Civil Authorities and Homeland Security Missions

Operations for Homeland Defense” The NG and the reserves also play a vital role in the defense of the homeland Figure A-1 depicts NG Title 10 USC authorities for HD and DSCA under DOD C2 It also depicts A-2 JP 3-27 Relationships Between Homeland Security Homeland Defense and Defense Support of Civil Authorities NG Title 32 USC authorities for HS HD activities and DSCA Figure A-1 also depicts the fact that in exceptional circumstances NG forces may perform HD activities in state active duty Title 32 USC and state active duty fall under state or territory C2 EP remains part of DOD’s overall preparedness activities It spans HD DSCA and HS and includes DOD’s lead support and enable functions Mobile command centers and DOD aviation support to the US Secret Service are just two examples of how DOD prepares for and supports EP operations HD efforts often complement HS efforts and the reverse is also true b Key Departmental Roles 1 DHS As stated in Chapter I “Fundamentals of Homeland Defense ” DHS through DHS missions set forth in the Quadrennial Homeland Security Review leads the HS enterprise in whole-of-government and community-based efforts to achieve HS The National Strategy for Homeland Security addresses the terrorist threat and provides a comprehensive framework for organizing the efforts of federal state local tribal and private organizations whose primary functions are often unrelated to national security 2 DOJ DOJ has lead responsibility for criminal investigations of terrorist acts or terrorist threats by individuals or groups inside the US or directed at US citizens or institutions abroad where such acts are within federal criminal jurisdiction of the US They also have lead responsibility for related intelligence collection activities within the US subject to the National Security Act of 1947 and other applicable law 3 DOD DOD is a key part of the HS enterprise that protects the homeland through two distinct but interrelated missions HD and DSCA DOD is the federal agency with lead responsibility for HD which may be executed by DOD alone e g BMD or include support from other USG departments and agencies DOD’s role in the DSCA mission consists of support of US civil authorities DHS or other USG departments or agencies as well as state local or tribal entities for domestic emergencies and for designated LE and other activities While these missions are distinct some department roles and responsibilities overlap and operations require extensive coordination between lead and supporting agencies HD and DSCA operations may occur in parallel and require extensive integration and synchronization with HS operations Understanding the roles and responsibilities of AC and RC forces and how they are used and the various duty statuses used to employ NG forces Title 10 and Title 32 USC and state active duty is critical to achieve integration and synchronization 2 Command and Control Options for Transition a In DOD integration includes the synchronized transfer of units into an operational commander’s force prior to mission execution HD operations require special attention regarding integration since the C2 possibilities are extensive Traditional considerations for integration are generally adequate when DOD is the lead and is defending against traditional external threats aggression However when DOD is simultaneously performing HD operations and supporting DHS or other federal agencies C2 becomes more complex To promote seamless and interoperable interagency communications for the DSCA portion A-3 Appendix A of DOD missions DODI 6055 17 DOD Emergency Management IEM Program directs that DOD installations will adopt and implement procedures consistent with the National Incident Management System NIMS Procedures will include a well-defined communication plan that includes the capability to communicate within DOD with personnel conducting the response as well as with civil authorities For interoperability the Incident Command System per the NIMS will be used in the civil sector This approach provides for common interaction when DOD is in support of civil authorities and requires planning consideration by the JFC performing such dual mission sets b CCDRs cannot predict when an HD operation will transition to DSCA or vice versa Additionally CCDRs may need to execute HD and DSCA simultaneously Thus C2 in support of HD and DSCA operations should have a straightforward C2 template that permits the CCDR to respond as the supported commander supporting commander or both Changes in law and DOD policy have increased the CCDR’s C2 options Options include using a standing JTF HQ augmenting a core Service component HQ or forming an ad hoc organization from various contributors Regardless of the organizational structure there are fundamental rules for forming and operating a JTF 3 Planning Considerations for Transition a Employment of RC Forces The RC possesses resources personnel equipment and skills that can be appropriately leveraged and effectively integrated into DOD’s HD plans and operations based on the operational requirements When mobilized RC forces operate as active duty forces While the NG is normally employed in Title 10 USC status in support of HD missions Title 32 USC Section 902 authorizes SecDef to provide funds to state governors for NG forces to perform specified HD activities without first activating these forces under Title 10 USC status When placed on federal active duty all RC forces conduct HD operations under Title 10 USC guidelines b Geographic Coordinate System Federal state regional local and urban governmental entities use a variety of state and local grid systems and methodologies for specifying geographic locations Latitude and longitude values can be based on different geodetic systems or datums The most common is the World Geodetic System 1984 a global datum used by all Global Positioning System equipment Other datums are significant because they were chosen by a cartographical organization as the best method for representing their region and are used on printed maps and charts The latitude and longitude on a printed map or chart may not be the same as the Global Positioning System receiver Coordinates from the mapping system can sometimes be roughly changed into another datum using a translation This need for translation may complicate coordinating activities between federal state tribal and local responders c USCG The USCG has inherent authorities and capability to seamlessly transition between HS and HD operations As discussed in Chapter II “Command Relationships and Interorganizationl Cooperation ” USCG execution of MHD tasks will be under the C2 of CGDEFOR and USCG execution of MHS tasks will be under the C2 of USCG commanders Additional considerations for the transition of USCG operations between MHS and MHD include the following A-4 JP 3-27 Relationships Between Homeland Security Homeland Defense and Defense Support of Civil Authorities 1 Ports Waterways and Coastal Security PWCS In general the USCG PWCS mission under the regime of MHS overlaps with many MHD port security and harbor defense activities It is important for JFC planning purposes to note that MHS operations are always in effect and there are significant force demands within the USCG to conduct MHS especially if maritime security conditions increase in a heightened threat environment The USCG may also raise maritime security condition levels which generally increases vessel and port security activities at the federal state and local levels and across commercial enterprise within the maritime transportation system and may lead to USCG force requirements for DOD to support MHS A particular advantage of PWCS over MHD port security and harbor defense activities is the more flexible USCG use of force policy compared to more restrictive SROE Only in circumstances where SROE is necessary to defeat a particular threat should a transition from PWCS to MHD be considered For more information on PWCS activities in relation to USCG-declared maritime security conditions see COMDTINST M16600 6 Maritime Security and Response Operations MSRO Manual 2 COTP Functions The USCG’s regulatory functions are also a key planning factor for JFC staffs planning maritime operations in areas subject to US jurisdiction Both the Magnuson Act and Port Waterways Safety Act grant regulatory powers to the USCG Commandant and the various designated COTPs JFC staffs may coordinate regularly with USCG staffs to identify pre-planned regulatory actions including safety and security zones that may be required to support joint MHD operations For more information on COTP functions see Title 33 Code of Federal Regulations Parts 6 and 165 and COMDTINST M16000 11 Marine Safety Manual Volume VI Ports and Waterways Activities 3 Balancing Enforcement and Security with Defense The USCG conducts LE operations and joint MIO using cutter and shore based boarding teams LE detachments and maritime security response team direct action sections as needed The USCG will normally require DOD-provided lift and surface assets under the auspices of direct MHS support if USCG cutters or aircraft are unavailable to support short-notice maritime response operations When necessary USCG assets conduct operations that preserve evidence required for prosecution of a maritime threat under US law while balancing risk associated with certain types of boarding operations As a member of the IC the USCG may also contribute to tactical intelligence exploitation in support of other federal agencies when such activities are authorized by US law and policy For more information see COMDTINST M16247 1 Maritime Law Enforcement Manual MLEM COMDTINST M16600 6 Maritime Security and Response Operations MSRO Manual and Coast Guard Publication 3-2 Short Notice Maritime Response 4 Domestic MHS Coordination Maritime security authorities that contribute to both HS and HD include domestic frameworks that coordinate partnerships establish maritime security standards collaborate with shared maritime security interests and A-5 Appendix A facilitate the sharing of information Domestically the USCG-led area maritime security committees carry out much of the maritime security regime effort COTPs in their role as federal maritime security coordinator lead the area maritime security committees through state-wide and municipal-level coordination with federal state and local LEAs and commercial port partners In exercising COTP authority COTPs consider all equities in the port environment as certain regulatory actions can have significant economic impact and may dictate trade-offs with security demands 5 International MHS Activities Abroad and in a similar fashion to how DOD conducts defensive activities in the forward regions whenever possible the USCG conducts the International Port Security Program which works with other countries and through the International Maritime Organization a specialized agency of the United Nations For more information on USCG domestic and international port security compliance see COMDTINST M16000 12 Port Security Compliance Manual d Auxiliary Organizations 1 USAF Auxiliary The USAF Auxiliary also known as Civil Air Patrol CAP has forces with unique capabilities that can contribute to the successful prosecution of HD air operations Air Education and Training Command serves as the force provider of CAP to CCDRs CAP a volunteer federally chartered nonprofit organization may function as an auxiliary of the USAF IAW Title 10 USC Section 9442 to support USAF noncombat programs and missions Such missions may include airborne surveillance and reconnaissance using visual observation and imagery search and rescue light airlift or utilizing CAP aircraft as an “airborne target” during air intercept training 2 USCG Auxiliary The USCG Auxiliary was established by Congress in 1939 under Title 14 USC The USCG Auxiliary supports MHS through the USCG Port Safety and Security Program For more information see COMDTINST M16790 1 Auxiliary Manual 3 Military Auxiliary Radio System Both the USA and the USAF maintain auxiliary communications that can handle unclassified message traffic including encryption capabilities e State Defense Forces State defense forces e g state military state guards or state military reserves are military units that operate under the sole authority of a state government they are partially regulated by the NGB but they are not a part of the ARNG State defense forces are authorized by state and federal law and are under the command of the governor of each state There are active state defense forces in 20 states and the US territory of Puerto Rico At the discretion of individual states or territories state defense forces may support assist and augment their state’s NG forces and civilian authorities such as police and fire departments f Chapter 18 Title 10 USC Sections 271-282 This chapter concerns military support for civilian LEAs and provides statutory authority for specific types of military A-6 JP 3-27 Relationships Between Homeland Security Homeland Defense and Defense Support of Civil Authorities support to LE Title 10 USC Section 275 directs SecDef to promulgate regulations that prohibit “direct participation by a member of the Army Navy Air Force or Marine Corps in a search seizure arrest or other similar activity unless participation in such activity by such member is otherwise authorized by law ” This guidance is currently set forth in DODI 3025 21 Defense Support of Civilian Law Enforcement Agencies g Insurrection Title 10 USC Sections 251-255 These statutory provisions allow the President at the request of a state governor or legislature or unilaterally in some circumstances to employ the US Armed Forces to suppress insurrection against state authority to enforce federal laws or to suppress rebellion When support is directed for such HD-related purposes in the US the designated JFC should utilize this special application knowing the main purpose of such employment is to help restore law and order with minimal harm to the people and property and with due respect for all law-abiding citizens h CIP Most infrastructure assets are inherently interconnected and part of larger integrated systems Therefore the removal of one asset’s functionality due to an outage or attack could have devastating effects on larger infrastructure networks causing broad service disruptions and potentially adverse regional impacts Almost all national and defense response capabilities rely to some extent on commercial infrastructures National and DCI supporting national security functions must be available when required to protect the homeland These will include DCI assets and DIB assets the protection of which is the responsibility of DOD JFCs’ preparations to conduct CIP should consider those in either a HD or DSCA role or as one transitions from one to another For example an explosion occurs at a major dam or nuclear facility These are considered key assets from a national perspective With no initial determination of cause authorities suspect terrorism National leadership makes the initial determination to deploy a QRF for HD to protect critical infrastructure due to unknown intent and for the purpose of expediency Subsequent to QRF arrival an assessment is made whether an external threat or terrorism caused the event Upon such determination of threat but if a need for security remains the QRF would perform security in a DSCA role until sufficient numbers of other federal agency local LE and or NG Title 32 USC can provide necessary support For complete details on the DSCA mission see JP 3-28 Defense Support of Civil Authorities A-7 Appendix A Intentionally Blank A-8 JP 3-27 APPENDIX B FACILITATING INTERORGANIZATIONAL COOPERATION 1 General DOD leads HD missions and will be supported by other USG departments and agencies while conducting such missions Conversely DOD supports other USG departments and agencies for DSCA missions Events or operations that begin as HD missions may transition to a DSCA mission normally for response to an incident or evolve to a concurrent DSCA mission This appendix identifies organizations that normally support HD missions in some fashion notwithstanding that some may also support DSCA missions separately concurrently or as a follow-on requirement 2 Combat Support Agencies and Other

ORGANIZATION AND STRUCTURE “Mindful in the years since the first NORAD North American Aerospace Defense Command Agreement was concluded in May 12 1958 NORAD as a distinct command has evolved to address the continuing changes in the nature of threats to North America and that it will need to adapt to future shared security interests ” NORAD Agreement 2006 1 North American Aerospace Defense Command Overview a Since 1957 Canada and the US have defended the skies of North America A formal NORAD Agreement between the two governments was signed on 12 May 1958 to establish NORAD as a bi-national command Using data from satellites as well as airborne and ground-based radars NORAD monitors validates and warns of attack against the Canadian and US homelands by aircraft missiles and space vehicles The command ensures Canadian and US air sovereignty through a network of alert fighters tankers airborne early warning aircraft and ground-based air defense assets cued by military and interagency surveillance radars such as those of the FAA and its Canadian equivalent NAV CANADA b As an executed international covenant the NORAD Agreement is binding under international law The CDS and the US CJCS provide the Terms of Reference to the NORAD Agreement to supplement and clarify military responsibilities directed or implied by the agreement c In the context of NORAD’s missions “North America” means Alaska Canada CONUS Puerto Rico and the US Virgin Islands to include the Air Defense Identification Zone the air approaches maritime approaches and territorial seas and the internal navigable waterways principally the Gulf of St Lawrence St Lawrence Seaway System Great Lakes and other internal waterways of concern as identified by CDRNORAD Responsibility for aerospace warning and aerospace control of US territory outside North America e g Hawaii and Guam lies with the appropriate GCC 2 Missions a Aerospace warning consists of processing assessing and disseminating intelligence and information related to man-made objects in the air and space domains plus the detection validation and warning of attack against North America whether by aircraft missiles or space vehicles utilizing mutual support arrangements with other commands and agencies An integral part of aerospace warning entails monitoring of global aerospace activities and related developments NORAD’s aerospace warning mission for North America includes support of US commands that are responsible for missile defense C-1 Appendix C b Aerospace control consists of providing surveillance and exercising NORAD OPCON of the airspace of the US and Canada NORAD OPCON is defined in the NORAD Agreement and NORAD Terms of Reference as the authority to direct coordinate and control the operational activities of forces assigned attached or otherwise made available to NORAD Aerospace control involves a continuum of combined air operations that includes air sovereignty operations aimed at controlling access to the sovereign airspace of North America air enforcement operations aimed at controlling activities approaching or within sovereign airspace and air defense operations aimed at defending against air attack This means NORAD has the authority to monitor control and prosecute in cooperation with the FAA and Transport Canada NAV CANADA all unwanted and unauthorized activity approaching and or operating within North American airspace including crossborder air operations c Maritime warning consists of processing assessing and disseminating intelligence and information related to the respective maritime approaches to the US and Canada It also includes warning of maritime threats to or attacks against North America utilizing mutual support arrangements with other commands and agencies to enable identification validation and response by national commanders and agencies responsible for maritime defense and security These tasks develop a comprehensive shared understanding of maritime activities to better identify potential maritime threats to North American security Maritime surveillance and control should be exercised by national commands and as appropriate coordinated bilaterally 3 Supporting Mission Areas and Systems a ITW AA Tactical warning is a warning after initiation of a threatening or hostile act based on an evaluation of information from all available sources Attack assessment is an evaluation of information to determine the potential or actual nature and objectives of an attack for the purpose of providing information for timely decisions The ITW AA system is a critical component of the US nuclear C2 system and is comprised of the sensors command centers and communications networks required to detect assess and communicate its information to designated users The main purpose of the ITW AA system is to provide timely reliable and unambiguous warning information of ballistic missile space and air attacks on North America To provide ITW AA of an aerospace attack on North America NORAD as a supported command correlates and integrates relevant information Space surveillance nuclear detonation detection and ballistic missile warning information is provided by USSTRATCOM for NORAD to execute its aerospace warning mission for North America CDRUSSTRATCOM as a supporting commander retains OPCON over USSTRATCOM-assigned ballistic missile and space surveillance and warning systems the Nuclear Detonation Detection System and command control and communications systems CDRNORAD retains the authority to redirect operational priorities of the ITW AA systems to execute NORAD assigned missions IAW the priority assigned to attacks against North America b Routine Air Operations NORAD provides surveillance and control of North American airspace This includes C-2 JP 3-27 North American Aerospace Defense Command Missions Organization and Structure 1 Day-to-day surveillance and control of the airspace approaches to and the airspace within North America to safeguard the sovereign airspace of both Canada and the US Surveillance and control includes the capability to detect identify monitor and if necessary take appropriate actions ranging from visual identification to destruction against manned or UA approaching North America 2 Air defense against manned or UA weapon systems attacking North America c Information and Intelligence Sharing NORAD aerospace warning maritime warning and aerospace control missions require effective information and intelligence sharing by many organizations and agencies within Canada and the US A “need to share” philosophy facilitates the effective execution of these NORAD missions on behalf of the governments of Canada and the US d Interorganizational Cooperation The effective execution of NORAD missions requires significant cooperation with agencies outside the Department of National Defence in Canada and DOD in the US NORAD is authorized direct liaison with these agencies in order to solicit and acquire the necessary cooperation while keeping appropriate national commands and authorities informed e Direct Communications CDRNORAD is authorized direct communications with the CDS CJCS SecDef Commander CJOC CDRUSNORTHCOM CDRUSPACOM CDRUSSTRATCOM CDRUSSOUTHCOM nation Service chiefs and other commanders on matters relative to NORAD’s missions This includes requests to appropriate agencies to expedite the release of classified information to facilitate the accomplishment of NORAD’s missions f CD and Countering Transnational Organized Crime Operations TCOs facilitate the aerial and maritime transit of illegal drugs into North America has been identified as a threat to the national security of Canada and the US by both governments DOD is the LFA to detect and monitor illegal airborne and maritime drug trafficking into the US To accomplish this mission SecDef tasked CDRNORAD and selected CCDRs to support the GCCs planning and execution requirements for CD and to counter TCOs required Likewise the Canadian National Drug Strategy named the National Defense Headquarters Canada as a supporting department to the Royal Canadian Mounted Police As a result 1 Canadian Air Division CAD is responsible for conducting CD operations when directed by National Defense Headquarters Canada To accomplish this mission NORAD conducts operations to detect and monitor aerial transit of drug trafficking into North America coordinates with other federal provincial state and local agencies “Close cooperation liaison and intelligence and information sharing among these commands will ensure the ability of our armed forces to act in a timely and coordinated fashion to deter identify disrupt and defeat

CNT Operations 4 North American Aerospace Defense Command Organization NORAD is organized on three distinct levels The HQ NORAD staff and the command center operate at the strategic level The three NORAD regions conduct activities at the operational level and the ADSs and their TACON forces operate at the tactical level a Missions are accomplished through a combination of assigned and attached Canadian and US forces AC NG and reserves These forces are employed in three NORAD regions further described in paragraph 6 “North American Aerospace Defense Command Subordinate Commands ” b CDRNORAD CDRNORAD and the Deputy Commander cannot be from the same country and their appointments must be approved by both Canadian and US governments The jurisdiction of CDRNORAD over those forces specifically made available to NORAD by the two governments is limited to OPCON c Commander United States Element North American Aerospace Defense Command CDRUSELEMNORAD This officer is the senior US officer assigned to NORAD USELEMNORAD serves as an administrative construct to permit the assignment or attachment of US forces to perform NORAD missions Global Force Management Implementation Guidance Section II Assignment of Forces Forces for Unified Commands states “Although not a CCDR CDRUSELEMNORAD exercises COCOM over US forces made available to NORAD ” d HQ NORAD HQ NORAD provides the strategic guidance necessary for the regions to execute their assigned missions Additionally the HQ coordinates with the senior military staffs of both countries as well as other CCDRs who may be in a supporting role HQ NORAD and the command centers are composed of integrated staffs with representatives of both countries e HQ NORAD Staff Organization The HQ NORAD staff is organized along the same J-code construct as the Joint Staff In addition the commander’s staff includes Canadian and US political advisors an interagency group a Washington Office and special assistants for NG and reserve affairs A unique aspect of the HQ NORAD staff is that most staff elements are dual-hatted as both NORAD and USNORTHCOM organizations The exception is the operations directorate which is a NORAD-only organization Despite most of the staff being dual-hatted with USNORTHCOM the commands remain separate with complementary missions roles and responsibilities C-4 JP 3-27 North American Aerospace Defense Command Missions Organization and Structure 5 North American Aerospace Defense Command Relations with Other Commands a USNORTHCOM NORAD and USNORTHCOM share a special and unique relationship A majority of USNORTHCOM’s AOR and NORAD’s OA overlap Note that in the NORAD Agreement this is normally referred to as an AO Each command has its missions defined by separate sources NORAD is a bi-national military organization which exists under the authority of the North Atlantic Treaty the NORAD Agreement the NORAD Terms of Reference and the Canada-United States Basic Defense Document between Canada and the US Conversely USNORTHCOM is a purely US military organization based on the US UCP USNORTHCOM forces operating in the same area as NORAD forces may provide tactical intercept information to NORAD forces Conversely NORAD air defense control assets may provide tactical intercept information to USNORTHCOM forces while they remain under the OPCON of their respective commander To create combined effects USNORTHCOM accomplishes coordination with numerous commands and agencies For instance 1 USNORTHCOM plans organizes and as directed executes HD operations within the USNORTHCOM AOR in concert with missions performed by NORAD The mission and geographic overlaps between NORAD and USNORTHCOM require both commands to coordinate and synchronize their operations 2 USNORTHCOM coordinates with NORAD and CJOC for the ground and maritime defense of North America 3 USNORTHCOM coordinates air defense operations with NORAD 4 To facilitate coordination a Memorandum of Understanding Between North American Aerospace Defense Command and United States Northern Command and Canadian Joint Operations Command Concerning the Exchange of Information Between the Three Commands of Commander’s Critical Information Requirements and Other Information Requirements was codified on 25 January 2012 b USSTRATCOM USSTRATCOM support to NORAD includes 1 Provide the missile warning and space surveillance information necessary to fulfill the US commitment to the NORAD Agreement 2 Provide ITW AA of space missile and air attacks on CONUS and Alaska if NORAD becomes unable to accomplish the aerospace warning mission 3 Coordinate with NORAD to support accomplishment of both commands’ missions c USTRANSCOM USTRANSCOM provides common-user and commercial air land and sea transportation terminal management patient movement and aerial refueling to support the global deployment employment sustainment and redeployment of US forces As such USTRANSCOM is responsible for the following support to NORAD C-5 Appendix C 1 Provide air-refueling support to NORAD as required Ensure main and forward operating bases are capable of supporting designated refueling and associated support operations 2 Support NORAD deployment resupply and redeployment with air sea and other assets as directed by SecDef 3 Coordinate force movement requirements and related materials including strategic aeromedical evacuation involving common user lift d USPACOM USPACOM plans organizes and as directed executes HD operations within the USPACOM AOR The mission and geographic proximity between NORAD and USPACOM require both commands to coordinate and synchronize their operations e USEUCOM USEUCOM’s AOR extends across the Atlantic Ocean to the west coast of Greenland and west to approximately 45 degrees west longitude NORAD’s OA and USEUCOM’s AOR overlap f USSOUTHCOM NORAD’s OA and USSOUTHCOM’s AOR overlap NORAD has a memorandum of understanding with USSOUTHCOM to address issues of mutual concern list support rendered by one party to the other and deconflict their operations when necessary Of particular interest to NORAD this memorandum of understanding addresses CD operations and US military operations in the vicinity of Cuba g NORAD CJOC and USNORTHCOM NORAD supports CJOC and USNORTHCOM in their assigned missions to defend Canada and the US NORAD is supported by both commands in the conduct of missions assigned to NORAD NORAD provides bi-national aerospace and maritime situational awareness to CJOC and USNORTHCOM 6 North American Aerospace Defense Command Subordinate Commands a NORAD aerospace warning and air control operations are conducted by its three subordinate regions Each region has an air operations center and is further subdivided into one or more ADSs for tactical execution The ADS operates a battle control center BCC a tactical C2 node that supports air battle management air weapons control surveillance and identification data links and airspace management b Each BCC contains a combat mission crew and battle staff When formed the battle staff directs sector air control activities The BCC operates on a continuous basis and closely coordinates air sovereignty activities with FAA air traffic control centers to ensure HD activities can be safely and successfully executed c NORAD tactical-level operations also include ground-based air defense units in fixed locations e g the NCR and temporary sites as needed to support national special security events Units supporting temporary sites e g USAF control and reporting centers C-6
