RAND Homeland Security Basic Principles

Security must be defined broadly to include all efforts to deter, detect, prevent, and impede terrorist attacks; mitigate casualties, damage and disruption; reduce alarm; and rapidly respond, repair, and recover.

Intelligence capabilities must be improved at the local level.

Re-examine our legal framework for preventive action, which differs from routine reactive criminal investigation.

Comprehensive oversight and the means for prompt remedy.

Beware of unwittingly transforming vulnerabilities into imminent terrorist threats.

3227-Jan-09

RAND Homeland Security Basic Principles

Security will necessarily be reactive.

Allocations of resources must be based upon assessments of risk.

Improve post-disaster recovery.

Develop security measures that are compatible with our basic freedom.

Our goals are to deter terrorist attacks, improve our chances of detection, increase the terrorists’ operational difficulties, drive them toward less lucrative targets.

3327-Jan-09

Rand Homeland Security Basic Principles

Inculcate a security culture without creating a security-obsessed state.

Improving our crisis-management capabilities and strengthening our public-health infrastructure are examples.

Development of capability at the local level rather than the expansion of federal programs.

Strict cost-benefit analysis will not work.

Security must be both effective and efficient.

3427-Jan-09

Rand Homeland Security Basic Principles

Technology Development: New systems should be rapidly deployed for testing in the field, with successful systems disseminated nationwide.

Homeland security can be a basis for rebuilding America’s aging infrastructure.

Increasing public education and participation.

Create a Civilian Reserve Corps.

4427-Jan-09

Shared Responsibility

Homeland security is a shared responsibility built upon a foundation of partnerships.

Federal, State, local, and Tribal governments, the private and non-profit sectors, communities, and individual citizens all share common goals and responsibilities – as well as accountability – for protecting and defending the Homeland.

4527-Jan-09

Roles and Responsbilities In today’s dynamic threat environment, we must strive for a national

response based on engaged partnerships at and across all levels that enable us to anticipate where we should increase or reduce support based on changing circumstances. Success starts with understanding the following fundamental roles:

Federal Response. The Federal Government maintains a wide array of capabilities and resources that may be made available to States and local governments. Federal assistance is provided when needed to support State and local efforts or lessen or avert the threat of a catastrophe within the United States. Accordingly, Federal response efforts are designed to complement and supplement, rather than supplant, the State and local response. The Federal Government also maintains relationships with private and non-profit sector entities to aid in facilitating additional support.

.

4627-Jan-09

Roles and Responsbilities

Private and Non-Profit Sector. The private and non-profit sectors fulfill key roles and work closely with communities, States, and the Federal Government. The private sector plays an essential role implementing plans for the rapid restoration of commercial activities and critical infrastructure operations, which can help mitigate consequences, improve quality of life, and accelerate recovery for communities and the Nation. Non-profit organizations serve a vital role by performing essential services within communities in times of need, such as mass sheltering, emergency food supplies, counseling services, or other vital support services.

.

4727-Jan-09

Roles and Responsibilities

State Response. State governments have the primary responsibility for assisting local governments to respond to and recover from disasters and emergencies. When an incident expands to challenge the resources and capabilities of the State coordinate requests for additional support, the State may request support from the private and nonprofit sector, turn to other States for support through the Emergency Management Assistance Compact, or call upon the Federal Government for assistance. States also may collaborate with one another to ensure a broader, more effective regional response.

4827-Jan-09

Roles and Responsibilities Community Response. One of the fundamental response

principles is that all incidents should be handled at the lowest jurisdictional level possible. The initial response to the majority of incidents typically is handled by local responders within a single jurisdiction and goes no further. When incidents exceed available resources, the local or Tribal government may rely on mutual aid agreements with nearby localities or request additional support from the State. It is worth noting that for certain types of Federal assistance, Tribal nations work with the State, but, as sovereign entities, they can elect to deal directly with the Federal Government for other types of assistance.

4927-Jan-09

Roles and Responsibilities

Special Circumstances. There are special circumstances where the Federal Government exercises a larger, more proactive role. This includes catastrophic incidents when local and State governments require significant support, and incidents where Federal interests are directly implicated, such as those involving primary Federal jurisdiction or authorities. For example, the Federal Government will lead response efforts to render safe weapons of mass destruction and coordinate related activities with State and local partners, as appropriate

5027-Jan-09

State & Local Governments

This Strategy defines “State” to mean any State of the United States, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, the Virgin Islands, Guam, American Samoa, the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands, or the trust territory of the Pacific Islands. This Strategy also defines “local government” as any county, city, village, town, district, or other political subdivision of any State, and includes any rural community or unincorporated town or village or any other public entity for which an application for assistance is made by a State or political subdivision thereof.

5127-Jan-09

State, Local, Tribal Governments

America’s constitutional foundations of federalism and limited government place significant trust and responsibility in the capabilities of State and local governments to help protect the American people.

State, local, and Tribal governments, which best understand their communities and the unique requirements of their citizens, provide our first response to incidents through law enforcement, fire, public health, and emergency medical services.

They will always play a prominent, frontline role in helping to prevent terrorist attacks as well as in preparing for and responding to a range of natural and man-made emergencies.

5227-Jan-09

Private & Non Private Sectors The private and non-profit sectors also must be full

partners in homeland security.

As the country’s principal providers of goods and services, and the owners or operators of approximately 85 percent of the Nation’s critical infrastructure, businesses have both an interest in and a responsibility for ensuring their own security.

The private sector plays key roles in areas as diverse as supply chain security, critical infrastructure protection, and research and development in science, technology, and other innovations that will help secure the Homeland.

5327-Jan-09

Private & Non Private Sectors The non-profit sector, including volunteer and relief groups

and faith-based organizations, provides important support services for the Nation, including meals and shelter, counseling, and compassion and comfort to Americans, particularly in the aftermath of an incident.

DOD SPT to Homeland Security & Defense

HS at the national level has a specific focus on terrorist threats. The DOD focus in supporting HS is broader.

The Armed Forces of the United States support the NSHS through two distinct but interrelated mission areas — homeland defense (HD) and civil support (CS).

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.

DOD is responsible for homeland defense, which includes missions such as domestic air defense.

6127-Jan-09


DOD recognizes that threats planned or inspired by "external" actors may materialize internally.

DOD is prepared to conduct homeland defense missions whenever the President, exercising his constitutional authority as Commander in Chief, authorizes military actions.

For Homeland Defense missions, as directed by the President of the United States and/or the Secretary of Defense (SecDef), DOD is the lead or primary agency.

6227-Jan-09


DOD’s role in the CS mission area consists of support to US civil authorities for domestic emergencies, and for designated law enforcement within the scope of restrictions required by the Posse Comitatus Act and other support approved by the SecDef.

The SecDef provides military assistance to US civil authorities for domestic incidents as directed by the President and consistent with military readiness, Department of Defense directives, and the law.

6327-Jan-09

DOD Homeland Security Framework

DOD “prepares and responds” when conducting both HD and CS.

DOD primarily focuses on “detect, deter, preempt, and defend” when they conduct HD missions.

Prepare. Emergency preparedness is a shared responsibility and a partnership that includes the Federal government, state and local agencies, the private sector, and individual citizens.

6427-Jan-09

Prepare. Emergency preparedness is a shared responsibility and a partnership that includes the Federal government, state and local agencies, the private sector, and individual citizens.

6527-Jan-09


Preempt. Preemption consists of proactive measures taken to prevent or neutralize a perceived or imminent attack. Preemption may include offensive actions such as air strikes, maritime interception, or direct action

Defend. HD missions are those that protect the Nation’s sovereignty.

Respond. Response, as it relates to HS activities, spans both HD and CS mission areas.

6627-Jan-09

Command Relationships Regardless of whether DOD is conducting HD or CS, military

forces will always remain under the control of the established Title 10, 32, or state active duty military chain of command.

For HD missions, DOD is in the lead with other federal agencies in support.

In certain circumstances, military commanders or responsible officials in other DOD components may be faced with situations that will require them to provide immediate response to civil authorities.

Commander, United States Northern Command (CDRUSNORTHCOM) has specific responsibilities for HD and for supporting civil authorities.

Homeland Defense & Civil Support Operational Framework

7527-Jan-09

Homeland Defense

DOD is the lead, supported by other agencies, in defending against traditional external threats/aggression (e.g., air and missile attack).

However, against internal asymmetric, nontraditional threats (e.g., terrorism), DOD may be in support of DHS.

When ordered to conduct HD operations within US territory, DOD will coordinate closely with other federal agencies or departments.

Homeland Defense Missions and Operational Elements

7827-Jan-09

Civil Support Employment of military forces within the US, its territories,

and possessions, under the auspices of CS, typically falls under the broad mission of MACA.

Military Support to Civil Authorities.

MSCA refers to support provided by Federal military forces, DOD civilians, contractor personnel, and DOD agencies and components in response to requests for assistance during domestic incidents to include terrorist threats or attacks, major disasters, and other emergencies. MSCA missions consist of DOD support to US domestic emergencies and for designated law enforcement, civil disturbances, and other activities.

7927-Jan-09

Military Support to Civil Authorities

8027-Jan-09

Civil Support

Military Support to Civilian Law Enforcement Agencies.

Military forces performing in this role support the lead Federal agency and other supporting agencies and may be armed depending on the SecDef decision. Military support to civilian law enforcement agencies (LEAs) may include, but is not limited to national special security events, support for combating terrorism, support to counterdrug operations, maritime security, intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance capabilities, and general support (training support to LEAs/loan of equipment/personnel and expert advice).

8127-Jan-09

Civil Support Military Assistance for Civil Disturbances.

The President is authorized by the Constitution and statutory laws to employ the Armed Forces of the United States to suppress insurrections, rebellions, and riots, and provide federal supplemental assistance to the states to maintain law and order. Responsibility for the management of federal response for civil disturbances rests with the Attorney General.

Reserve Component Support to HS & D

Reserve Component Forces. NG and Reserve forces are collectively referred to as RC forces and are integral to the accomplishment of peacetime missions and conflict prevention.

RC Forces are also an essential part of the HS operational force and consist of the Army National Guard (ARNG), the US Army Reserve (USAR), the US Naval Reserve (USNR), the US Marine Corps Reserve (USMCR), the ANG, the US Air Force Reserve (USAFR), and the US Coast Guard Reserve (USCGR).

Guidelines for the utilization of RC forces when called to active duty are found in Title 10 United States Code (USC).

8427-Jan-09


National Guard. The NG primarily operates under three different command relationships: federal funding and federal control (10 USC); federal funding and state control (32 USC); and state status (state funding and state control).

The NG, when in state status, is normally the first military responder to CS incidents that require resources beyond the capabilities of local and other state-level emergency response organizations.

8527-Jan-09


National Guard Weapons of Mass Destruction – Civil Support Teams (WMD-CSTs). The NG, operating under 32 USC or state status, is likely to be the first military responder to a CBRNE incident site or area. The WMD-CST’s mission is to support civil authorities at a domestic CBRNE incident site by identifying CBRNE agents/substances, assessing current and projected consequences, advising on response measures, and assisting with appropriate requests for additional support.
