Joint Operations Center Manning (National Guard Military Support & Communication Agencies) Name of Program/Project: National Guard Military Support & Communication Agencies Line Item Title: Joint Operations Center (JOC) Manning Identification: Procurement P-1 Line Number N/A Budget Activity Number: 1&2 Program Description: The National Guard’s Joint Operations Center (JOC) serves as the focal point for all Joint Force Headquarters (JFHQ) and Joint Task Force (JTF) operational matters. The JOC plans, monitors, assesses and guides the execution of the operational Commander’s decisions while maintaining and promoting situational awareness by all mission partners. To effectively accomplish this mission, each state JOC must retain 13 individuals to operate on a 24/7 basis during normal operations and be prepared to increase manpower on little or no notice for enhanced operations, such as when emergencies arise. These 13 operators in each state and territory are supported by the National Guard Bureau with a dedicated intelligence analyst and two individuals to support command, control, communications, computing, and intelligence. States will determine exact shift composition and scheduling based on their unique requirements. To date there has been no funding for this capability as the states have filled these positions on an ad-hoc basis, which results in a lack of continuity and limited JOC capability. In the absence of providing standard levels of JOC funding in all 54 states and territories, the National Guard’s ability to quickly and effectively respond is severely degraded. The lack of continuity and standardization in each JOC within the 54 states and territories prevents rapid transition from normal “steady state” operations to emergency operations. Having standardized JOC operations in all 54 states and territories provides enhanced coordination and interoperability with all mission partners at the local, state and federal levels and will save lives during the critical first 24 hours of an emergency occurring and through the sustained operations required for in large scale crisis events.

Domestic Emergency Communications (Joint Communications Support Environment (JCCSE)) Name of Program/Project: Domestic Emergency Communications Line Item Title: Joint Communications Support Environment (JCCSE) Identification: Procurement P-1 Line Number Budget Activity Number: 1 & 2 Program Description: The Joint Communications Support Environment (JCCSE) is a mission essential component in our nation’s domestic emergency communications strategy and the Chief, National Guard Bureau’s number one information technology initiative. JCCSE enables reliable and timely flow of key information to support state and Federal military activities for Homeland Defense (HLD) and Defense Support to Civil Authorities (DSCA). JCCSE encompasses all of the vital organizations and supporting net-centric IT capabilities required by the National Guard to support the Combatant Commands (CoCOMs), and other DOD and non-DOD partners by extending interagency and intergovernmental trusted information sharing and collaboration capabilities from the Area of Responsibility (AOR) level to the state and territory and local levels, and to any incident site throughout the United States and its territories. The Joint Command, Control, Communications, and Computer (C4) Coordination Center (JCCC) provides the organization and facilities to support the NORTHCOM horizontal information exchange of the IT common operating picture (COP) and the Joint Information Exchange Environment (JIEE) with real-time situational awareness, and an automated, shared Operational Picture. Funding both JCCC and JIEE components will ensure JCCSE’s communications resources provide a timely and effective response in the event of a national emergency. ADOS Man Day Requirements for the JCCC at Full Operational Capability: Funding the Joint Command, Control, Communications, and Computer (C4) Coordination Center (JCCC) is essential to establishing Full Operational Capability (FOC) in support of the Chief of the National Guard’s (CNGB) number one priority JCCSE. The JCCC acts as the CNGB’s eyes and ears for coordinating support of incident operations and reporting the status of NG fixed and deployable net-centric IT capabilities while providing situational awareness to CoCOMs and other interagency partners in a trusted information sharing environment from the NGB to USNORTHCOM, and from the NGB thru the JFHQ-State, to the incident level. The implementation of a national coordination center was proven during Hurricane Katrina. The risk to the nation of leaving this portion of the requirement unfunded is detrimental to providing coordination and asset management of the incident area. In a post Katrina environment, this coordination and asset management is vital to an efficient and prepared response to a contingency event of any level. Without funding to support this requirement, the JCCC and the individual members of the National Guard will be unable to provide effective

Identification: Procurement P-1 Line Number N/A

OMNG Budget Activity Number: 1

Program Description: Funding for modernization and upgrades of Commercial-Off-The-Shelf (COTS) equipment utilized by the CSTs. A total of 25 different items range from: individual radiological monitors, improved hearing protection with integrated communications capability, radiation detection equipment, and improved chemical protection gear to wireless repeater systems for chemical monitors. The risk to DOD and the nation of leaving this portion of the requirement unfunded is that the NG, Combatant Commanders and DOD will not have trained and capable NG forces for timely response to a CBRNE event that overwhelms first responders, resulting in more casualties / loss of life. CST Teams will not be able to properly respond to and mitigate a CBRNE event. There will also be a failure to comply with Chairman, Joint Chiefs of Staff, Instruction (CJCSI) 3125.01: Chief, National Guard Bureau, will: Monitor and assist the Adjutants General and the State National Guard in providing well-trained and well-equipped Army and Air National Guard forces and resources to provide military support to domestic CM operations in response to a CBRNE situation. The impact on individual members of the National Guard in all 55 CSTs is a shortfall in the specialized equipment employed to locate and diagnose a WMD contaminated environment and how to mitigate the reactive agent. The effect of providing additional funds would be to ensure DOD and the nation has trained and ready CSTs, fully capable of responding to and able to mitigate the effects of a WMD CBRNE event.

National Domestic Response Exercises, Interagency (Joint Interagency Training Capability (JITC) and NG Participation in CoCOM/National HD/CS Exercises) Name of Program/Project: Joint Interagency Training Capability (JITC) and NG Participation in CoCOM/National HD/CS Exercises Line Item Title: National Domestic Exercises - Interagency Identification: Procurement P-1 Line Number N/A

O&M/Pers Budget Activity Number: 1

Program Description: Funding for Joint Interagency Training Capability (JITC) and National Guard Participation in Combatant Commander (CoCOM)/National Homeland Defense Civil Support (HD/CS) Exercises is essential. National Guard JITC and HD/CS exercises provide four regional joint/interagency HD/Weapons of Mass Destruction (WMD) exercises per year; joint training for Joint Force Headquarter/Joint Task Force (JFHQ/JTF) State staffs and provides collective CBRNE Training allowing CST and CERFPs to train in a realistic WMD, CBRNE, terrorist and natural disaster environment. The Joint Requirements Oversight Council Memorandum (JROCM) 263-06 endorsed JITC as the means for training, JFHQ/JTF-State Staffs, CERFPs, CSTs, and National Guard Response Forces with the Regional Exercise Program, JFHQ/JTF-State Staff Course and Collective CBRNE Training. NG support to National Level Exercises (NLE) supports NGB and State NG participation in two NORTHCOM Tier I DoD Support to Civil Authorities (DSCA) exercises per year (Ardent Sentry and Vigilant Shield). Although, Presidential Budget Decision (PBD) 705 provided funding for JITC in the FY08-13 POM, the funding levels were insufficient to provide the following NG training requirements; Geographically distributed CBRNE collective training venues, fully exercise CERFPs, CSTs, and NGRFs in regional exercise program, External Evaluations for CERFPs, Continuity of Operations/Continuity of Government (COOP/COG) and Border/Port and Maritime Security Training, participation of NG forces in CoCOM and National Exercise Programs. HD/CS training is normally not funded by the services and leaves the NG at risk of failure of being properly trained and prepared to conduct HD/CS missions for the SecDef in support of a Governor of a State.

Counterdrug State Plans Name of Program/Project: NGB J3-CD (Counterdrug) Line Item Title: Counterdrug State Plans

Identification: Procurement P-1 Line Number N/A

O&M / Pers Budget Activity Number: 1

Program Description: Funding for NGB Counterdrug personnel readiness is essential. Critical operational shortfalls have been identified for FY09 which will be detrimental to the readiness of the National Guard’s Counterdrug Program. The FY08 Presidential Budget is estimated to only provide 1,904 average end strength for the Counterdrug Program which affects all of the 54 States and Territories. In accordance with DoD Program Budget Decision (PBD) 095, dated 11 Dec 2001, the National Guard Counterdrug Program should maintain an average end strength of no less than 2,763. Since 1999, increases to the Presidential Budget (PB) have not kept pace with the actual cost of inflation and pay raises. The risk to the nation of leaving this portion of the requirement unfunded is critical. The impact on individual members of the National Guard is not able to provide law enforcement support to the national, state and local agencies to combat drug trafficking. The effect of providing additional funds would enable the NGB Counterdrug program to increase the end strength to 2,763. FY08 Appropriation:
