12.4.1

Functional Area Analysis

12.4.1.1

Definition

To ensure that IPE provides individual protection from CBRN/TIM hazards by the proper use of

masking devices (respiration and oculary) and wear of protective gear and clothing

(percutaneous). The gear must ensure survivability by prohibiting agents from entering the body

while allowing individuals to perform mission tasks while wearing it. While some performance

degradation is inherent because of the physical properties of the protective gear, the goal is to

reduce the physical and mental stresses of its wear without substantially degrading mission

performance. IPE must be correctly fitted to the individual. These provisions also apply to

MWAs.

Capability and Deficiency Assessment Summary

Table 12.4-1 discusses the only capability that exists to perform the task to the designated

standard. The JTF HQ Staff conducts planning and preparation of forces deploying to and/or

within the JOA for CBRND protection. Adequate doctrine, policy, and procedures exist for the

planning and management of resources affording individual protection of the force. Included in

the deficiencies is the ability of the force to perform sustained operations within a CBRN/TIM

environment and CBRND of eligible civilians and MWAs.

Current Capability and Deficiency

Adequate doctrine, policies, and procedures exist to guide the JTF staff in planning, allocation,

equipping, and preparing the force with CBRND IPE. Training, exercises, and evaluations serve

to build individual capability to perform tasks while encumbered by IPE. Specialized IPE and

supporting DOTMLPF exists for CBRND of uncontaminated casualties unable to wear standard

IPE. Deficiencies include the potential for deploying units not to be equipped for CBRND until

after arrival in the JOA; eligible civilians and MWAs are not equipped and trained to survive a

CBRN/TIM environment; CBRND systems do not adequately support expeditionary and highly

mobile forces; replenishment of CBRND systems may be impacted by non-U.S. manufacturer

sources; IPE encumbrances do degrade performance; CBRND is inadequate for TIMs; the

designs of specialized IPE (e.g., explosive ordnance disposal [EOD] IPE, firefighter bunker gear,

etc.) do not incorporate CBRND qualities and features; the provision of medical treatment to

casualties within a CBRN/TIM environment can be performed only within COLPRO; and

DOTMLPF is inadequate for sustained operations within a CBRN/TIM environment and for

CBRND of eligible civilians and MWDs. The overall current capability is “red.”

Projected Near/Mid-Term Capability and Deficiency

The fieling of improved joint IPE (Joint Service Lightweight Integrated Suit Technology

[JSLIST], Joint Service Aircrew Mask [JSAM], Joint Service General Purpose Mask [JSGPM],

and Joint Protective Aircrew Ensemble [JPACE]) provides improved protection for the force.

The IPE will provide protection against limited TIMs in addition to the known CBRN warfare

agents. National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health review for compliance with

¹ Adequate DOTMLPF exists to address planning and support of the force. However, DOTMLPF is inadequate for nonexistent addressing CBRND of eligible civilians and

MWAs. DOTMLPF for CBRND is inadequate for sustained operations within a CBRN/TIM environment and for expeditionary operations with reduced logistical footprint.

² The JTF staff plans for operations using the COCOM-identified forces for the potential threat. Equipping the tasked force is an integral part of planning and preparation. The

combination of established force organic assets, material acquisitions, prepositioned material, available host-nation/coalition contributions, and movement of identified CBRND

resources from stockpiles and reallocation activities are pursued by the JTF staff with the COCOM staff to prepare and support deploying forces as outlined by the appropriate

plan. Deploying units may not possess full CBRND resources and capabilities during the initial stages of deployment and until after arrival within the JOA. Additionally,

deploying eligible civilians and MWAs (particularly MWDs) are not equipped and trained to survive a CBRN/TIM environment. JTF staff does not possess clear guidance for

planning and providing CBRN/TIM protection training and CBRND protection resources to deploying eligible civilians and MWAs.

⁵ The JTF staff plans for operations using the COCOM-identified forces for the potential threat. Equipping the tasked force is an integral part of planning and preparation. The

combination of established force organic assets, material acquisitions, prepositioned material, available host-nation/coalition contributions, and movement of identified CBRND

resources from stockpiles and reallocation activities are pursued by the JTF staff with the COCOM staff to prepare and support deploying forces as outlined by the appropriate

plan. Systems are reallocated, when necessary, from prepositioned and dispersed stocks of units deploying or operating within an JOA. Expeditionary operations are a particular

concern. Existing COLPRO systems are not generally designed for a highly mobile force, with a reduced logistical footprint, and the initial period of operations until the theater

matures (usually the first 30-90 days). Deploying units may not possess full CBRND resources and capabilities during the initial stages of deployment and until after arrival within

the JOA. Additionally, deploying eligible civilians and MWAs (particularly MWDs) are not equipped and trained to survive a CBRN/TIM environment. JTF staff does not possess

clear guidance for planning and providing CBRN/TIM protection training and CBRND protection resources to deploying eligible civilians and MWAs. Current doctrine and policy

does not adequately address sustained operations within a CBRN/TIM environment.

⁶ The JTF staff plans for operations using the COCOM-identified forces for the potential threat. Equipping the tasked force is an integral part of planning and preparation. The

combination of established force organic assets, material acquisitions, prepositioned material, available host-nation/coalition contributions, and movement of identified CBRND

resources from stockpiles and reallocation activities are pursued by the JTF staff with the COCOM staff to prepare and support deploying forces as outlined by the appropriate

plan. Deploying units may not possess full CBRND resources and capabilities during the initial stages of deployment and until after arrival within the JOA. Additionally,

deploying eligible civilians and MWAs (particularly MWDs) are not equipped and trained to survive a CBRN/TIM environment. JTF staff does not possess clear guidance for

planning and providing CBRN/TIM protection training and CBRND protection resources to deploying eligible civilians and MWAs.

⁷ Available CBRND systems are not prepositioned in sufficient quantities to support concurrent military operations. Timing for replenishment of systems is dependent upon

manufacturing capabilities, system age, and funding availability. Production for replenishment by industry may require a period to expand or establish manufacturing capabilities

which could exceed the necessary replenishment timeline. This is particularly applicable when components or systems are dependent upon non-U.S. manufacturing capabilities.

⁸ Doctrine, policy, and procedures exist for the training, exercising, and evaluation of forces for the application of IPE against CBRN/TIM agents.

⁹ MWAs are not equipped, trained, and prepared for survival in a CBRN/TIM environment.

¹⁰ Doctrine, policy, procedures, training, exercises, and evaluations serve to build the capability of individuals to perform tasks while wearing IPE. However, the encumbrances

associated with IPE do degrade performance and limit the conduct of certain tasks (especially those associated with the repair and maintenance of delicate and intricate assets).

Doctrine, policy, and procedures are inadequate for sustained operations within a CBRN/TIM environment, especially forces conducting expeditionary operations in austere

environments and possessing reduced logistical footprints.

¹¹ Specialized IPE is available for uncontaminated casualties unable to wear standard IPE. The preference is to use COLPRO to protect these casualties against the effects of

CBRN/TIM agents. DOTMLPF exists for the application of specialized IPE for uncontaminated casualties.

¹² Doctrine, policy, and procedures for specialized TIM IPE are generally limited to specialized operations and functions such as hazardous materials teams. TIM protective assets

are not commonly available and provided to the general force. TIM is not adequately addressed by current doctrine, policy, and procedures. Current and near-term standard IPE

provides varying degrees of protection from selected TIMs with no protection against a number of TICs.

¹³ The design and application of EOD IPE does not consider compatibility with CBRND IPE, nor incorporate CBRND features.

¹⁴ Medical Services doctrine, policy, and procedures are inadequate for the provision of medical care by medical providers in a CBRN/TIM environment. Casualties are

decontaminated before treatment is rendered by medical providers. Medical assessment and emergency stabilization is provided during the triage and decontamination process. The

standard IPE is supplemented using standard medical protective assets (e.g., surgical gloves, drapes, etc.) to reduce the potential for cross-contamination and contact with body

fluids.

Definition

To ensure that CBRN/TIM protective measures and resources are available to coalition/non-U.S.

forces. The availability of CBRN/TIM protective measures and resources is both a joint and

coalition/non-U.S. force concern. This task includes IPE, COLPRO, CBRND equipment and

supplies, protection of equipment and supplies, and medical resources. The joint forces must

integrate coalition/non-U.S. forces to maximize capability and minimize vulnerability. U.S.

forces may be required to provide protective assets (especially IPE, detection and warning

devices, medical support, and decontaminants) to coalition/non-U.S. partners, depending on local

threats and/or actual adversary use of CBRN/TIM weapons. Joint forces NBC personnel should

offer to review coalition/non-U.S. force CBRN/TIM protection plans and assist as necessary.

U.S. forces may be required to train coalition/non-U.S. forces in CBRND.

Capability and Deficiency Assessment Summary

Table 12.5-1 discusses the only capability that exists to perform the task to the designated

standard. Adequate doctrine, policy, and procedures exist for ensuring the adequacy of protective

measures and resources of coalition partners and other designed non-U.S. forces. Structures for

mutual support can be applied in cases where necessary to complement capabilities and

minimize weaknesses within the Joint Task Force. Included in the deficiencies is the ability of

the force to maintain OPTEMPO within a sustained CBRN/TIM environment.

Current Capability and Deficiency

JTF HQ staffs conduct planning and coordination with coalition partners to determine resources,

requirements, and taskings best accomplishing mission and CBRND preparedness of partner

forces. They track readiness of forces and equipment for operations. They also adjust plans and

resources as necessary to meet changing operational needs and conditions. Adequate doctrine,

policy, and procedures exist to guide commanders and staffs with coalition and non-U.S. force

participation in joint operations. Planning, tracking, and monitoring is performed in coordination

with partner staffs under a negotiated plan outlining requirements, taskings, training, reporting,

information sharing, standards, and operational certifications for participation. Although the

provision of CBRND equipment to national forces ultimately resides with their nations, mutual

support among partners is planned to complement capabilities and to minimize weaknesses.

ACSAs between partners enables acquisition and cross-servicing support between the partners.

IAs provide for a wide range of support including sheltering, medical care, and other support

activities. The JTF Commander, JTF staff, and combined staff monitor, track, and assess the

readiness of the Joint Coalition Force and addresses issues and concerns as they arise.

² National policies of the coalition/non-U.S. forces regarding medical prophylaxis is a factor the JTF Commander and supporting staff must consider during planning and operations.

Religious considerations may also impact the use of medical prophylaxis. The JTF staff, in coordination with coalition/non-U.S. forces partner staff, develop and address requirements

and commitments by each partner. Specific tasks, based upon the guidance and restrictions identified by the COCOM, are assigned to elements of the coalition force most capable of

completing the task. Although the provision of CBRND resources to national forces ultimately resides with their nations, mutual support among partners is planned to complement

partners’ capabilities and to minimize weaknesses. ACSAs between partners enable acquisition and cross-servicing support between the partners. The IA provides for a wide range of

support exchange, including sheltering, medical care, and other support activities. Indigenous forces supporting operations may not be equipped or have access to medical prophylaxis.

The JTF staff, in coordination with partners, determines the need for medical prophylaxis based upon the threat. A determination is made on the provision of medical prophylaxis to

these forces.

³ The JTF staff, in coordination with the COCOM and coalition partner staffs, develops a comprehensive plan for successful achievement of the desired end states. Force

requirements and commitments are obtained from each coalition participant and identified to the JTF by the COCOM. Minimum capability standards for participation and a

certification process covering areas of concern (e.g., training level competence, logistics capabilities, deployment, sustainment, and redeployment readiness, etc.) are established

and applied by all participants. Specific tasks are assigned to elements of the coalition force most capable of completing the task. Although the provision of CBRND equipment to

national forces ultimately resides with their nations, mutual logistics support among coalition partners is planned to complement partners’ capabilities and to minimize weaknesses.

For example, U.S. Marine Corps forces were equipped with lightweight CBRN/TIM IPE by the United Kingdon during Operation Desert Storm. The U.S. installed COLPRO

capabilities in Saudi critical command and control facilities for the same operation. The JTF Commander, JTF staff, and the combined staff monitor, tracks, and assess the

readiness of the joint coalition force.

operations may not be equipped and prepared for CBRND operations. The COCOM staff, in coordination with partners, determines the need for CBRND capabilities of these

forces based upon the threat. A determination is made on the provision of CBRND capabilities and training to these forces.

Capability and Deficiency Assessment Summary

Table 12.6-1 discusses the only capability that currently exists to perform the task to the

designated standard. Procedures exist for the selected provisioning of specific eligible civilians

with protective equipment. Current noncombatant evacuation operations (NEO) plans include the

provisioning of non-mission support civilians (primarily military dependents at HTA fixed-site

locations) with minimal protective equipment generally drawn from mission stocks or obtained

commercially off-the-shelf (COTS). Some government civilians are provided and equipped with

IPE as part of their primary function (e.g., hazardous materials, fire response, readiness flight

(Air Force), and selected others. Deficiencies include inadequate doctrine, policy, procedures,

standards, equipment, prophylaxes, training, exercising, and evaluation for CBRND for eligible

civilians.

Current Capability and Deficiency

JTF HQ taffs plan, stock, equip, and train eligible civilians as necessary and appropriate for

survival within a CBRN/TIM environment, including the full range of CBRN/TIM defense,

including prophylaxis and IPE. The only identified individual capabilities are the existing NEO

procedures addressing primarily military dependents at HTA fixed-site locations that provide for

the provisioning of minimal protective equipment drawn from mission stocks or obtained COTS

and the limited number of eligible civilians provided and equipped with IPE as part of their

primary function. Deficiencies include the lack of a clear definition of eligible civilians;

inadequate doctrine, policy, and procedures addressing CBRND of eligible civilians; the lack of

IPE and medical prophylaxes addressing the variations within the population (e.g., babies, young

children, disabled, tall, short, thin, obese, pregnant, etc.); and the absence of training, exercising,

and evaluation of these personnel. The overall current assessment is “red.”

¹ DOTMLPF is inadequate or nonexistent for protection of eligible civilians within a CBRN/TIM environment.

² Policies and plans do not adequately address the protection of eligible civilians from CBRN/TIM. The definition of “eligible civilians” is not clear. JTF staff does not possess

clear guidance for planning and providing CBRN/TIM protection of eligible civilians.

³ Some government civilians are equivalently equipped as part of their primary function (e.g., hazardous materials, fire response, readiness flight [Air Force], and selected others).

However, most civilians performing essential activities supporting operations are not equipped to survive a CBRN/TIM environment and accomplish their tasks. This statement is

particularly true of contractors. JTF staff does not possess clear guidance for planning and providing CBRN/TIM protection of eligible civilians.

population. JTF staff does not possess clear guidance for planning and providing CBRN/TIM protection of eligible civilians. Protective equipment drawn from mission stocks or

obtained in advance COTS is considered in NEO plans for selected areas.

⁵ Prophylaxis of eligible civilians is not addressed. The issuance of CBRN/TIM prophylaxis to eligible civilians requires review due to questions regarding applicability to the

range of body types, ages, and physical/medical factors inherent within a potential population, as well as possible long-term health issues and legal implications. Some government

civilians may be issued medical prophylactic countermeasures as part of their primary function (e.g., hazardous materials, readiness flight [Air Force]), and selected others).

However, civilians (e.g., general government employees, contractors, dependents, etc.) are not issued prophylaxis. JTF staff does not possess clear guidance for planning and

providing CBRN/TIM protection of eligible civilians.

⁶ Eligible civilians are not generally trained to operate in CBRN/TIM hazards. Some government civilians are trained as part of their primary function (e.g., hazardous materials,

fire response, readiness flight [Air Force], and selected others). However, civilians (e.g., general government employees, contractors, dependents, etc.) generally do not receive

training to survive a CBRN/TIM environment. JTF staff does not possess clear guidance for planning and providing CBRN/TIM protection of eligible civilians.

⁷ Some government civilians are equivalently equipped as part of their primary function (e.g., hazardous materials, fire response, readiness flight [Air Force], and selected others).

However, most civilians performing essential activities supporting operations are not equivalently equipped to their military counterparts. This statement is particularly true of

contractors. JTF staff does not possess clear guidance for planning and providing CBRN/TIM protection of eligible civilians.

⁸ Prophylaxis (CBRN/TIM vaccination) of eligible civilians is not addressed. The administration of CBRN/TIM prophylaxis to eligible civilians requires review due to questions

regarding applicability to the range of body types, ages, and physical/medical factors inherent within a potential population, as well as possible long-term health issues and legal

implications. Selected medical prophylaxis may be administered based upon medical judgment. JTF staff does not possess clear guidance for planning and providing CBRN/TIM

protection of eligible civilians.

⁹ Protective equipment for non-mission support civilians is not generally stocked for the full range of body types, ages, and physical capabilities inherent within a potential

population. JTF staff does not possess clear guidance for planning and providing CBRN/TIM protection of eligible civilians. Protective equipment drawn from mission stocks or

obtained in advance COTS is considered in NEO plans for selected areas.

¹⁰ NEO plans for selected areas include the provisioning of non-mission support civilians with minimal protective equipment; generally drawn from mission stocks or obtained in

advance COTS. However, protective equipment for non-mission support civilians is not generally stocked for the full range of body types, ages, and physical capabilities inherent

within a potential population. Short-notice NEO evacuation operations for other than existing areas prepared in advance for NEO activities, are likely to necessitate the use of

military force assets which may provide inadequate protection for segments of the potential population (e.g., babies, young children, disabled, etc.). JTF staff does not possess clear

guidance for planning and providing CBRN/TIM protection of eligible civilians.

DOTLPF Assessment Summary

This section addresses the deficiencies and suggests potential 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.

Deficiency: Policies and plans do not adequately address the protection of eligible civilians

from CBRN/TIM.

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

civilian personnel and operations for CBRND. Organization: Identify organizational services

and activities supporting the mission performed by civilian personnel and operations.

Training: Establish CBRND training, exercise, and evaluation criteria and programs for

civilian personnel and operations supporting the mission; and conduct CBRND training,

exercises, and evaluations. Leadership: Implement and manage CBRND training, equipping,

and protection of civilian personnel and operations supporting the mission. Personnel:

Civilian personnel and operations supporting the mission/military operations are qualified in

CBRND and capable of performing their responsibilities in a CBRN/TIM environment.

Deficiency: The definition of “eligible civilians” is not clear.

Non-Materiel Solutions: Doctrine: Define eligible civilians supporting the mission/military

operations for CBRND and establish their inclusion in the force within doctrine, policy,

procedures, and TTPs. Organization: Identify organizational services dependent upon

civilians for mission/military operations success. Training: Establish CBRND training,

exercise, and evaluation criteria and programs for eligible civilians supporting the

mission/military operations and conduct CBRND training, exercises, and evaluations.

Leadership: Implement and manage CBRND training, equipping, and protection of eligible

civilians supporting the mission/military operations. Personnel: Personnel meeting the

definition of eligible civilians supporting the mission/military operations are qualified in

CBRND and capable of performing their responsibilities in a CBRN/TIM environment.

Deficiency: JTF staff does not possess clear guidance for planning and providing

CBRN/TIM protection of eligible civilians.
