THREAT: 

THREAT THE US IS AT WAR: COUNTER & ANTITERRORISM WTC (FIRST ATTACK), KOHBAR TOWERS, USS COLE ATTACK EVENTS OF 9/11 SUBSEQUENT ANTHRAX ATTACKS NEXT ATTACK, WHEN???

WHAT IS FORCE PROTECTION?: 

WHAT IS FORCE PROTECTION? SECURITY PROGRAM PROTECT PERSONNEL, FAMILIES, EQUIPMENT ALL LOCATIONS & SITUATIONS PLANNED, INTEGRATED APPLICATIONS FOR COMBATING TERRORISM INCLUDES PHYSICAL SECURITY OPERATIONAL SECURITY PERSONAL PROTECTIVE SERVICES SUPPORTED BY INTELLIGENCE, COUNTERINTELLIGENCE & OTHER SECURITY PROGRAMS GOAL: MINIMIZE LOSS OF LIFE AND OTHER CRITICAL ASSETS NUMBER ONE PRIORITY IS KEEPING ASSETS SAFE REGARDLESS OF MEASURES IMPLEMENTED, RISK PRESENT

RESPONSIBILITIES: 

RESPONSIBILITIES FORCE PROTECTION IS SENIOR LEADERSHIP’S OR COMMANDER’S RESPONSIBILITY PLANNING PROGRAMMING EXECUTION RESULTANT ACTIONS TAKEN CONSISTENT WITH SENIOR LEADERSHIP’S OR COMMANDER’S DECISIONS FORCE PROTECTION MUST BE ESSENTIAL PART OF PLANNING AND DESIGN PROCESS

THREAT ASSESSMENT (TA): 

THREAT ASSESSMENT (TA) ONE OF FIRST STEPS IN AT/FP PROGRAM ONCE UNDERSTAND THREAT ASSESS FACILITIES ABILITY TO SURVIVE ATTACK TA DEFINES PARAMETERS UPON WHICH PROTECTIVE SYSTEMS ARE BASED INTELLIGENCE GATHERING THREAT IDENTIFICATION AGGRESSORS TOOLS, WEAPONS, AND EXPLOSIVES TACTICS THREAT DEFINITION: EXISTENCE, CAPABILITY, HISTORY, INTENTIONS, TARGETING, & SECURITY ENVIRONMENT THREAT LEVEL

VULNERABILITY ASSESSMENT: 

VULNERABILITY ASSESSMENT ADDRESSES SUSCEPTIBILITY TO ATTACK AND RANGE OF PHYSICAL THREATS DRIVES ANTITERRORISM (AT) [DEFENSIVE] MEASURES BOMBING AT KHOBAR TOWERS & USS COLE DROVE ASSISTS COMMANDERS IDENTIFY WEAKNESSES AND RECOMMEND FIXES TO DETER ATTACKERS PROTECTS THE FORCE: PEOPLE & PRIORITY RESOURCES DODI 2000.16: DTRA, JSIVA, MAJCOM VA, USAF VA DOD O-2000.12-H: PROTECTION OF OF DOD PERSONNEL AND ACTIVITIES AGAINST ACTS OF TERRORISM AND POLITICAL TURBULENCE AFI 31-210: AF ANTITERRORISM PROGRAM

FORCE PROTECTION STRATEGIES: 

FORCE PROTECTION STRATEGIES DOD ANTI-TERRORISM CONSTRUCTION STANDARDS MODIFICATIONS AT MAJOR RENOVATION STANDOFF DISTANCES, GLASS, CMU’S, LANDSCAPING AT/FP OFFICER SIGN DD FM 1391 CERTIFICATESTANDARDS MET PLANNING OR PROGRAMMING ACTIONS CONSTRUCTION PROJECTS CHANGE: LAND USE, TRAFFIC FLOW, ENTRY CONTROL, & FACILITY IMPROVEMENTS??? SCENARIOS UNDERGO SUITABILITY ANALYSIS LIMFACS: $, PHYSICAL & POLITICAL FACTORS THEN PICK PREFERRED FP MEASURES

DOD CONSTRUCTION STANDARDS: 

DOD CONSTRUCTION STANDARDS JCS DOCUMENT STANDOFF & DEFENSE IN DEPTH DOD ANTI-TERRORISM CONSTRUCTION STANDARDS REQUIRED FOR NEW CONSTRUCTION REQUIRES ANTI-TERRORISM OFFICER AT EACH INSTALLATION STANDARDS MANDATORY LINKS FUNDING ON DD FM 1391 WITH INSTALLATION CERTIFICATE OF COMPLIANCE IMPLEMENTATION COMPREHENSIVE PLANNING: FP CONSIDERATIONS--PLANNING FACILITY SITE DESIGN: ENHANCE FP BUILDING SYSTEMS DESIGN: REDUCE VULNERABILITY

WHAT’S IMPORTANT: 

WHAT’S IMPORTANT CRITICAL FACILITIES GLASS, <15% GLAZED, LAMINATED, FRF FACILITY (INGRESS/EGRESS) & PARKING STANDOFF GATES PERIMETER DELIVERIES FOOD & WATER SUPPLY LINEN EXCHANGE NON DESCRIPT SIGNAGE HARDENING UTILITIES & DISTRIBUTION SYSTEMS COMMUNICATIONS & IS DECENTRALIZATION STANDOFF=YOUR BEST FRIEND GIANT VOICE

MITIGATION: 

MITIGATION GLASS: SINGLE PANED, ANNEALED HOW MUCH? FRF? LAMINATED? BARRIERS JERSEY, f(FPCON) LANDSCAPING TRAFFIC FLOW STANDOFF: CUMULATIVE EFFECTS PERIMETER: SECURE OR POROUS? ECP’S? GOAL: INHIBIT VISITORS AND PROHIBIT VEHICLES

GATES: THREAT : 

GATES: THREAT 15,000 POUND TRUCK 50 MPH LOADED WITH EXPLOSIVES

GATES: CONCEPT OF OPERATIONS: 

GATES: CONCEPT OF OPERATIONS GATE #1 VISITOR CONTROL CENTER(VCC) FOR VISITORS CARS WITH DECALS OR ID CARD HOLDERS TRUCKS SCREENED AT ALL THREATCON LEVELS INSPECTION PIT ALL DELIVERY VEHICLES SCREENED ALWAYS GATE #2: ID CARD HOLDERS AND CARS WITH DOD DECALS NO VISITORS ALLOWED & NO VCC NO TRUCKS ALLOWED OR SCREENING EXTENSIVE FORMAL TRAINING PROGRAM FOR CONTROLLERS: WRITTEN & COORDINATED

Slide24: 

Properly Designed ECP(Gate 1*) Remotely operated barriers--all lanes Large vehicle screening area with 4 stalls MTMC Traffic Eng Bulletin, Aug 01, with modifications Elevated island protects guards with canopy & some heat Remotely operated bollards (serpentine) Catchment area berms *Gate #2 has no VCC or truck screening area

GATES: REMOTELY OPERATED BARRIERS: 

GATES: REMOTELY OPERATED BARRIERS STOPS 15,000# TRUCK, 70 MPH STOPS 20,000# TRUCK, 62 MPH REMAIN OPERATIONAL AFTER ENGAGEMENT RAISE/LOWER IN 3 SECONDS FRONT FACE WARNING LIGHTS 9 FT LONG CROSS ALL INGRESS/EGRESS LANES, FROM LARGE VEHICLE SCREENING AREA MATCH ARCHITECTURAL FABRIC OF BASE UP END FACES TRAFFIC

GATES: REMOTELY OPERATED BOLLARDS: 

GATES: REMOTELY OPERATED BOLLARDS STOPS 15,000# TRUCK, 50 MPH RAISE/LOWER IN 3 SECONDS 35 INCHES HIGH SPACED 3 FT ON CENTER MATCH ARCHITECTURAL FABRIC OF AFA ~ SAME POSITIONS AS JERSEY BARRIERS REPLACE JERSEY BARRIERS AT BOTH GATES

RISK MANAGEMENT & MITIGATION: 

RISK MANAGEMENT & MITIGATION LIMITED RESOURCES WHAT’S IMPORTANT TO INSTALLATION COMMANDERS & SENIOR LEADERSHIP? PRIORITIZE & COORDINATE WITH STAKEHOLDERS CAN ONLY COVER ALL THREATS IF HAVE UNLIMITED RESOURCES HAVE TO ACCEPT SOME LEVEL OF PREDETERMINED RISK

SUMMARY: 

SUMMARY US IS VULNERABLE TO TERRORIST ATTACK AMERICANS HAVE SHORT MEMORIES SECOND ATTACK WHEN IT COMES WILL HEIGHTEN INTEREST IN AT/FP INCUMBENT ON ALL OF US TO EXERCISE FP APPROACH THREAT LOGICALLY THROUGH THE DESCRIBED PROCESS MANAGE RISK “…NO GOVERNMENTAL RESPONSIBILITY IS MORE FUNDAMENTAL THAN PROTECTING THE PHYSICAL SAFETY OF OUR NATION AND OUR CITIZENS” PRESIDENT G.W. BUSH, 8 MAY 01
