⁸ Training is nonexistent or haphazard at best. Doctrine, policy, standards, procedures, and TTPs do not adequately address training of civilian personnel.

⁹ Base, facilities, and units are required to conduct CBRND exercises. However, these exercises do not fully involve all personnel and activities. Nor do they address sustained

operations within a contaminated environment. Nonmilitary personnel, although potentially at risk, are not integrated as participants.

¹⁰ Non-mission support civilians are not generally integrated into CBRND exercises.

¹¹ Joint exercise plans include evaluation criteria, timing, type, content, and scoring. However, these are not the foundation for development of Service-specific exercise and

evaluations. Additionally, there is a need for distinct CBRN/TIM-specific exercise/evaluations focusing upon sustained operations and the integration of civilian personnel.

DOTLPF Assessment Summary

This section addresses the deficiencies associated with standards, criteria, and procedures for

training, equipping, and protecting eligible civilians not supporting the mission/military

operations from threat CBRN/TIM agents. The deficiencies can be addressed by non-materiel

solutions. If there are no non-materiel solutions, or they are only partial solutions, the remaining

non-materiel need is then stated. Materiel needs are assessed in the IMA section. Non-materiel

solutions include defining and integrating eligible civilians not supporting the mission/military

operations into CBRND standards, criteria, doctrine, policy, and procedures for training,

equipping, and protection. Analysis and RD&E to determine standards for equipping eligible

civilians not supporting the mission/military operations for survival in a CBRN/TIM

environment and includes supporting training, exercising, and evaluation criteria and programs

are specified in the DOTLPF Assessment Summary. Standards, criteria, doctrine, policy, and

procedures for CBRND protection of eligible civilians not supporting the mission/military

operations do not address the application of presymptomatic prophylaxis and do not adequately

address protection for the range of body types, ages, and physical capabilities inherent within a

civilian population. Nor is the potential for CBRND for sustained CBRN/TIM environments.

10.5.1.1

Defintion

To reduce the impact of CBRN/TIM releases or collateral ROTA on U.S.and allied-, friendly-, or

nonaligned-nation MWAs. Standards and procedures address common and interoperable

requirements and criteria for training (formal and unit level) of handlers and MWAs, particularly

military working dogs (MWDs), to survive within a CBRN/TIM environment. The standards

establish and define MWAs and specify the minimal level of protection required for MWDs and

military working equines (MWEs). The standards for MWE further identify the circumstances in

which protection is afforded against CBRN/TIM agents. The standards address the equipping of

MWA-using units, handlers, and MWAs with MWA protective systems (individual and

collective) for sustained survival within a CBRN/TIM environment. These include protective

measures (materiel and nonmateriel) supporting operational requirements and affording MWA

protection against expected threats. Standards and procedures outline protective equipment,

medical/veterinary measures, and other programs supporting survivability, and specify the

conduct and evaluation of assessment exercises that are focused upon CBRND operations to

ensure readiness.

DOTLPF Assessment Summary

This section addresses the deficiencies associated with standards, criteria, and procedures for

training, equipping, and protecting MWAs from threat CBRN/TIM agents. The deficiencies can

be addressed by non-materiel solutions. If there are no non-materiel solutions, or they are only

partial solutions, the remaining non-materiel need is then stated. Materiel needs are assessed in

the IMA section. Non-materiel solutions focus upon the establishment and operation of a

CBRND programmatic area for MWAs with emphasis upon MWDs. CBRND standards, criteria,

doctrine, policy, procedures, and TTPs fail to address the protection and survival of these assets.

CBRND protective assets (including presymptomatic prophylaxis, individual protection, and

collective protection) are not available or programmed. CBRND training, exercising, and

evaluation do not include the protection of MWAs. The inability to ensure survivability of

MWAs, particularly MWD, until relocated outside of the hazard area, to collective protection, or

the hazard is resolved—not to continue operations within the hazard—is the core deficiency.

Deficiency: CBRN/TIM defense standards and procedures do not adequately address, or are

nonexistent, for MWAs, particularly MWDs.

protective equipment, measures, and activities. Training: Institutional and unit training of

handlers and MWAs for CBRND measures and activities is required. Leadership: Ensure

awareness and planning for CBRND measures and requirements for MWA survivability.

Facilities: Develop supporting infrastructure for MWA CBRND (e.g., logistics, veterinary

surveillance, etc.).

Deficiency: CBRND exercises do not fully involve all personnel and activities.

Non-Materiel Solutions: Doctrine: Develop doctrine, policy, and procedures requiring

comprehensive participation and integration of all potentially affected personnel, MWAs, and

activities in CBRND exercises. Organization: Ensure that all affected entities are aware of

and participate in comprehensive CBRND exercises. Training: Ensure that all personnel

(military and nonmilitary) and MWAs are trained in appropriate CBRND protective

measures. Leadership: Ensure recognition of the value of comprehensive exercises including

MWAs to enhance readiness, survival, and promote interaction between activities.

¹ Effective DOTLPF is in place for the conduct of this task by primary duty personnel whose duties include the performance of the task. DOTLPF is inadequate for augmentation

or additional duty personnel tasked to accomplish these functions. Nor is general knowledge DOTLPF for recognition of a potential hazard using international markings provided

to the general force.

² Current international standards address only fully contained (packaged) hazardous materials and samples. There is a lack of standards for shipping contaminated items that cannot

be completely encapsulated to contain the associated hazards. No international standards have been established providing acceptable threshold levels of contamination. Without

established maximum contamination allowances, diplomatic clearances for overflight and landings may be denied for the air transport of contaminated and formerly contaminated

aircraft and cargo. Without overflight and landing clearances, the air shipment of contaminated or formerly contaminated cargo will be significantly impeded. Internationally

accepted standards exist for the packaging, handling, movement, and marking of hazardous or infectious materials crossing international borders. These are promulgated under the

auspices of the United Nations. Air transported material is governed by the International Civil Aviation Organization Technical Instructions (ICAO TI) on the Safe Transport of

Dangerous Goods by air augmenting Annex 18 to the Convention on International Civil Aviation. Maritime transported materials are governed by the International Maritime

Dangerous Goods (IDMG) Code mandated by Chapter 7 of the International Convention for the Safety of Life at Sea (SOLAS). Note: Not all chapters of the IDMG are mandatory.

Infectious material is governed under the World Health Organization (WHO) promulgated International Health Regulations of 1969 (as amended). Codes and standards are also

promulgated by the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA). The primary two documents are the Code of Conduct on the Safety and Security of Radioactive Sources and the

International Atomic Energy Regulations for the Safe Transport of Radioactive Materials. All the international standards provide instructions on the handling and marking of

hazardous and infectious material. However, additional requirements may be imposed by individual countries upon material identified, destined, transshipped, within or pass

through/over their borders.

³ International standards address the movement of material across international boundaries. Storage requirements generally address storage within transport means. Storage

requirements are generally within the purview of the host country and its standards. Many countries, however, do use the international standards and recommendations as a basis

for their internal codes.

⁴ Training standards exist for primary duty personnel performing cargo movement activities. However, primary packaging and containment of contaminated material and samples

is the responsibility of the initiating activity (e.g., Technical Escort Unit [TEU], medical facility, CBRN/TIM survey and sampling, field lab, etc.). The correct marking and

identification is dependent upon notification and initial marking/identification actions by the preparing activity. These personnel may, or may not, be trained in required packaging,

containment, marking, and identification of collected material and samples.

⁵ Training standards exist for primary duty personnel performing cargo movement activities. However, primary packaging and containment of contaminated material and samples

is the responsibility of the initiating activity (e.g., TEU, medical facility, CBRN/TIM survey and sampling, field lab, etc.). The correct marking and identification is dependent

upon notification and initial marking/identification actions by the preparing activity. These personnel may or may not be trained in required packaging, containment, marking, and

identification of collected material and samples. There are no established procedures or training standards to address the interior contamination of airlift aircraft in the event of

agent release. Interior decontamination capabilities are inadequate. Therefore, training standards to address this deficient area are also inadequate.

⁶ Joint exercise plans include evaluation criteria, timing, type, content, and scoring. However, these are not the foundation for development of Service-specific exercise and

evaluations. Additionally, there is a need for distinct CBRN/TIM-specific exercise/evaluations that include the packing, marking, and movement of hazardous/infections material

and samples.

⁷ Standards and procedures existing under Department of Transportation, Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA), and Centers for Disease Control (CDC)

regulations and requirements. DoD standards and procedures incorporate these requirements. However, the standards and procedures are generally known and applied by primary

duty personnel. Implementation by Services is guided by Service directives and guidelines developed from DoD requirements. Service directives and guidelines are unique to the

Service, although based upon a common foundation.

⁸ Standards and procedures detailed by Department of Transportation, OSHA, and CDC regulations and requirements. DoD standards and procedures incorporate these

requirements. However, only primary duty personnel performing these functions are trained, knowledgeable, and able to apply the standards. Training by Services is guided by

Service directives and guidelines developed from DoD and Service requirements. Primary duty personnel whose field does not include these tasks in their specialty description

may not be trained to perform these functions. Training to recognize a potential hazard through identification of international markings is not provided to the general force.

Training of augmentation and additional duty personnel to accomplish these tasks is gener ally minimal and inadequate.

⁹ Standards and procedures detailed by Department of Transportation, OSHA, and CDC regulations and requirements. DoD standards and procedures incorporate these

requirements. However, the standards and procedures are generally known and applied by primary duty personnel. Equipping is dependent upon known requirements.

¹⁰ Personnel in a field possessing a task for this function in their specialty description may not be trained and equipped to accomplish the task.

DOTLPF Assessment Summary

This section addresses the deficiencies associated with policies, standards, and criteria for

hazardous or contaminated material and samples marking, packing, storage, handling, and

transportation. The deficiencies can be addressed by non-materiel solutions. If there are no non-

materiel solutions, or they are only partial solutions, the remaining non-materiel need is then

stated. Materiel needs are assessed in the IMA section. Non-materiel solutions include

addressing in doctrine, policy, and procedures the training of personnel performing augmentation

or direct support functions (e.g., preparation, storing, moving, handling, transporting, etc.) of

hazardous, contaminated, or infectious material and incorporating standards into institutional and

unit training, exercises, and evaluations for all personnel and activities performing these tasks

and functions (regardless of whether primary responsibility or support). The inclusion in

doctrine, policy, procedures, and TTPs recognition training and knowledge of all force personnel

of international markings identifying hazardous, contaminated, or infectious material provides

early identification of hazards and appropriate actions.

Deficiency: Non-primary duty personnel may, or may not, be trained in required packaging,

containment, marking, and identification of collected material and samples.

Non-Materiel Solutions: Training: Personnel performing augmentation or direct support

functions (e.g., storing, moving, handling, transporting, etc.) of hazardous, contaminated, or

infectious material require training commensurate with their responsibilities. Leadership:

Ensure all personnel identified in “Training” are trained and knowledgeable.

Deficiency: The correct marking and identification is dependent upon notification and initial

marking/identification actions by the preparing activity.

Non-Materiel Solutions: Doctrine: Enforce existing doctrine, policies, and procedures for

marking and identification actions by preparing activities. Training: Personnel performing

preparation, storage, movement, handling, transport, etc., of hazardous, contaminated, or

infectious material are fully trained and evaluated for correct marking and identification of

these materials. Leadership: Ensure compliance with standards, procedures, and

requirements for the preparation, storage, movement, handling, transport, and other

associated actions for hazardous, contaminated, or infectious material, including marking and

identification.

Deficiency: DoD-level training standards do not exist for non-primary duty personnel

performing hazardous/contaminated cargo movement and transport activities.

Non-Materiel Solutions: Doctrine: Adjust existing doctrine, policies, and procedures to

material.

Deficiency: Common and interoperable standards for safe packaging, containment, handling,

and storage of hazardous or contaminated material and samples are generally known and

applied by primary duty personnel only.

Non-Materiel Solutions: Training: Ensure all personnel, regardless of whether primary

responsibility or support, performing preparation, storage, movement, handling, transport,

etc., of hazardous, contaminated, or infectious material, are fully trained and evaluated for

application of common and interoperable standards for the safe packaging, containment,

handling, storage, and transport of hazardous or contaminated material and samples including

marking and identification of these materials. Leadership: Recognize criticality for the safe

preparation (including marking and identification), storage, movement, handling, transport,

and other tasks associated with hazardous, contaminated, or infectious material and ensure

personnel identified in “Training” are trained and comply with requirements.

Deficiency: Personnel in a field possessing a task to pack, containerize/package, handle, and

Capability and Deficiency Assessment Summary

Table 10.8-1 discusses the only capability that exists to perform the task to the designated

standard. CJCS/joint staff institutes and provides joint Service oversight of DOTMLPF program

for the safe handling and transport of exposed or contaminated casualties and MWAs providing

for the enhanced survivability of exposed and contaminated casualties as well as MWAs.

Current Capability and Deficiency

International standards specify international requirements for the movement of contaminated

(infectious) individuals/animals across international borders. However, U.S. national standards

addressing the transport of CBRN/TIM-exposed and -contaminated casualties within the United

States do not exist. Training guidelines for selected groups do exist for the handling of exposed

and contaminated casualties and are generally performed at the unit level. Existing guidance for

the protection of exposed and contaminated casualties specifies the application of either CPS or

standard IPE for CBRND protection. Deficiencies include the lack of CBRND standards,

criteria, doctrine, policy, procedures, TTPs for the protection of casualties unable to wear

standard IPE and CPS is not available or applicable (such as movement from COLPRO-equipped

medical facility for evacuation). Standards, criteria, and procedures do not adequately address

the handling and transport of CBRN/TIM-exposed or -contaminated MWA casualties. The

overall current capability is assessed as “red.”

Projected Near/Mid-Term Capability and Deficiency

No change projected for this task.

Projected Far-Term Capability and Deficiency

and triage, and treatment.

¹ DOTLPF is inadequate for the transport of exposed/contaminated casualties by air. DOTLPF is also nonexistent for the protection and care of casualties unable to wear IPE and

MWAs.

² International standards exist for the transport of contaminated individuals across international borders. These are promulgated under the auspices of the World Health

Organization (WHO)-promulgated International Health Regulations of 1969 (as amended) specifies international requirements.

³ National standards and procedures addressing the transport of exposed and contaminated casualties within the United States do not exist.

⁴ Training standards are not promulgated at the joint level addressing training standards for the handling of exposed and contaminated casualties and MWAs. Guidelines do exist

for the performance of these functions. However, training is generally inadequate and, although limited formal training may be provided for selected groups, usually performed at

the unit level. MWAs are not equipped or prepared against CBRN/TIM agents.

⁵ DoD training standards do not exist for the transport of exposed and contaminated casualties. Unit-level training is limited to the movement of casualties to the medical facility

and is predominantly reliant upon tactical ground transport. Air transport (tactical rotary wing) is a last resort due to concerns about asset contamination. Tactical and strategic

fixed wing air transport is not considered an acceptable means of transport. MWAs are not equipped or prepared against CBRN/TIM agents.

⁶ Joint exercise plans include evaluation criteria, timing, type, content, and scoring. However, these are not the foundation for development of Service-specific exercise and

evaluations. Additionally, there is a need for distinct CBRN/TIM-specific exercise/evaluations that include mass CBRN/TIM casualty transport, medical reception and triage, and

treatment.

⁷ Existing guidance specifies the application of either CPS or standard IPE to protect exposed and contaminated casualties against further contamination until decontaminated.

However, these standards do not address casualties who cannot be adequately protected by standard IPE (due to injuries or medical requirements) and CPS is not available. MWAs

are not equipped or prepared against CBRN/TIM agents.

⁸ Common and interoperable standards are not promulgated by DoD addressing training for handling exposed and contaminated casualties and MWAs. Guidelines do exist for the

performance of these functions. However, training is generally inadequate and, although limited formal training may be provided for selected groups by the Services, usually

performed at the unit level. MWAs are not equipped or prepared against CBRN/TIM agents.

⁹ Common and interoperable standards do not exist for the transport of exposed and contaminated casualties. Unit-level training is limited to the movement of casualties to the

medical facility and is predominantly reliant upon tactical ground transport. Air transport (tactical rotary wing) is a last resort due to concerns about asset contamination. Tactical

and strategic fixed wing air transport is not considered an acceptable means of transport. Prior decontamination of exposed/contaminated casualties is the only identified means for

protecting transportation assets against secondary contamination. The predominant means is decontamination of the asset following secondary exposure/contamination. Existing

standards and procedures provide adequate protection of personnel against secondary exposure/contamination. Standards and procedures require the application of protective

equipment and measures if the potential exists for contamination/exposure. MWAs are not equipped or prepared against CBRN/TIM agents. Protection of support equipment,

particularly medical equipment necessary for casualty treatment, is inadequate.

¹⁰ Standards do address general training requirement for the transport of casualties to medical care, although not CBRN/TIM-specific. Similarly, the general standard to protect

casualties is an existing requirement, though it too is not CBRN/TIM-specific. Standards do exist for the handling and protection of exposed and contaminated casualties by

medical and selected specialized activities. Casualties who cannot be adequately protected by standard IPE (due to injuries or medical requirements) are not addressed. MWAs are

not equipped or prepared against CBRN/TIM agents.

¹¹ MWAs are not equipped or prepared against CBRN/TIM agents. Existing standards and procedures provide adequate protection of personnel against secondary

exposure/contamination. Standards and procedures require the application of protective equipment and measures if the potential exists for contamination/exposure. However, air

transport resources are inadequately equipped and prepared to transport exposed and contaminated casualties and MWAs.

¹² MWAs are not equipped or prepared against CBRN/TIM agents. Exposed and contaminated casualties (human and MWA) unable to wear IPE are not adequately addressed in

standards and procedures. Protective equipment is not available for these casualties. Casualties able to wear standard IPE are required to apply the equipment outside of CPS.

However, medical units are not provided stocks of standard IPE for use by patients. Medical policy is the patient’s unit is responsible for providing the equipment to the medical

unit for use by the patient. Operationally involved units may be delayed, at best, in providing equipment.

¹³ Existing standards and procedures provide adequate protection of personnel against secondary exposure/contamination. Standards and procedures require the application of

protective equipment and measures if the potential exists for contamination/exposure. MWAs are not equipped or prepared against CBRN/TIM agents.

Capability and Deficiency Assessment Summary

This section addresses the only capability that exists to perform the task to the designated

standard. CJCS/joint staff institutes and provides joint Service oversight of comprehensive

DOTMLPF program for the safe handling and transport of exposed or contaminated human and

MWA remains addressing the chain of action and movement from theater to final interment.

Current Capability and Deficiency

CBRN/TIM-contaminated remains are handled as hazardous or infectious materials when

crossing international borders and are under auspices of international treaties and standards.

Nations conforming to United Nations treaties, regulations, and codes with impact upon

international transport of remains are identified. However, these treaties and standards do not

specifically address exposed and contaminated human and MWA remains resulting from a

CBRN/TIM agent. U.S. national standards also exist for the movement of remains but do not

extend to exposed and contaminated remains. CDC guidelines for movement of highly infectious

remains exist and are applied to specific cases for epidemiological investigation only. Training

standards also exist for transport of remains and mortuary activities. However, the transport

standards and procedures do not adequately address CBRN/TIM-exposed or -contaminated

remains. The overall current capability is assessed as “yellow.”

Projected Near/Mid-Term Capability and Deficiency

No changes are projected for this task.

Projected Far-Term Capability and Deficiency

No changes are projected for this task.

¹ DOTLPF is inadequate to accomplish this task.

² Contaminated remains are handled as hazardous or infectious materials when crossing international borders and are under the treaty auspices of the United Nations. The primary

applicable codes are under the World Health Organization (WHO) and promulgated under the International Health Regulations of 1969 (as amended). Transport requirements are

also governed by the international Civil Aviation Organization Technical Instructions (ICAO TI) on the Safe Transport of Dangerous Goods by Air; International Maritime

Dangerous Goods (IDMG) Code, and the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Internal Atomic Energy Regulations for the Safe Transport of Radioactive Materials.

However, these standards do not specifically address exposed or contaminated human and MWA remains as the result of a CBRN/TIM agent.

³ International standards for mortuary activities for exposed and contaminated human and MWA remains as a result of a CBRN/TIM agent do not exist. Mortuary activities are

generally determined by national standards.

⁵ National standards and procedures for the movement of human and MWA remains do exist. The extention of these standards and procedures to exposed and contaminated

remains does not currently exist. CDC guidelines for movement of highly infectious remains do exist and are applied for specific cases of epidemiological investigation. It is also

noted each state possess unique requirements for the movement and interment of remains.

⁶ International standards specifically addressing exposed or contaminated human and MWA remains as the result of a CBRN/TIM agent do not exist. Nations conforming to

existing United Nations treaties, regulations, and codes with impact upon international transport of exposed/contaminated materials and samples are identified.

⁷ Training standards exist for primary duty personnel performing mortuary activities. However, augmentation and additional duty personnel are trained at the unit level and training

⁸ Training standards exist for the transport of remains. However, these standards do not adequately address CBRN/TIM-exposed and -contaminated remains.

⁹ CBRN/TIM containment packaging for exposed/contaminated remains is inadequate or nonexistent.

¹⁰ Joint exercise plans include evaluation criteria, timing, type, content, and scoring. However, these are not the foundation for development of Service-specific exercise and

evaluations. Additionally, there is a need for distinct CBRN/TIM-specific exercise/evaluations that include mortuary activities for CBRN/TIM exposed/contaminated remains.

¹¹ Standards and procedures exist for the handling of exposed/contaminated remains. However, these are generally only known and applied by primary duty mortuary personnel.

Transporting and supporting units/personnel are generally trained to handle and transport unexposed/uncontaminated remains. The extention of existing standards and procedures

addressing exposed/ contaminated remains is inadequate or nonexistent.

¹² Standards and procedures for the movement of human and MWA remains do exist. The extention of these standards and procedures to exposed and contaminated remains does

not currently exist. CDC guidelines for movement of highly infectious remains do exist and are applied for specific cases of epidemiological investigation. It is also noted each

state possess unique requirements for the movement and interment of remains.

¹³ Existing standards and procedures provide adequate protection of personnel against secondary exposure/contamination. Standards and procedures require the application of

protective equipment and measures if the potential exists for contamination/ exposure. Mortuary personnel performing decontamination and remains preparation additionally

require splash protection against decontaminants and body fluids.

¹⁴ Containment is not adequately address in current standards and procedures. CBRN/TIM containment packaging for exposed/contaminated remains is inadequate or nonexistent.

Current procedures provide for decontamination and temporary interment to reduce and eliminate contaminants.

¹⁵ Procedures for marking interment areas exist. However, containment markings standards do not exist.
