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.
1.
Deficiency: The current capability is not automated, slowing down the process.
Non-Materiel Solutions: None.
2.
Deficiency: More detailed specific information and checklists useful for time-sensitive
situations are not available.
Non-Materiel Solutions: Doctrine: Develop TTPs to include time-saving procedures and
checklists.
3.
Deficiency: A restoration exercise focused on risk assessment of units, equipment, facilities,
activities or terrain that is contaminated for restoration prioritization and timing has not been
conducted.
Non-Materiel Solutions: Training: Conduct an exercise (or experimentation) that will
produce lessons learned and actionable recommendations.
4.
Deficiency: After unit operational risk assessment is completed, there are no TTPs to help
determine restoration operation priorities.
Non-Materiel Solutions: Doctrine: Develop TTPs that provide guidance on restoration
prioritization and timing.
5.
Deficiency: No doctrine has been developed.
Non-Materiel Solutions: Doctrine: Promulgate doctrine that provides information on
tactical risk assessment of units, equipment, facilities, activities, or terrain that are
contaminated for restoration prioritization and timing.
6.
Deficiency: The linkage of restoration operations and operational risk assessment is not
integrated into leader education.
Non-Materiel Solutions: Leadership: Leader education should provide a command and staff
focus on tactical risk assessment of units, equipment, facilities, activities, or terrain that are
contaminated for restoration prioritization and timing.
17.24.3.2
IMA Assessment Summary
Table 17.24-2 is a possible idea for a materiel approach and a corresponding description of that
idea. There is the possibility of an automated information distribution software and system that
are applicable for conducting tactical risk assessment of units, equipment, facilities, activities, or
terrain that are contaminated for restoration prioritization and timing.

17.25.2.1
Capabilities and Deficiencies Assessment Summary
Table 17.25-1 discusses a capability that currently exists to perform the task to the designated
standard. Any tactical unit staff has a team of operational planners and command and control
specialists and most have CBRN subject matter experts. This team of experts has the skill to
assess the impact of restoration activities on tactical objectives, but there are some deficiencies
that impact on the speed they will be able to operate.
Current Capabilities and Deficiencies
Any tactical unit staff has the ability to assist the unit commander to direct, control, and
coordinate operations of assigned and attached forces and to provide tactical guidance to forces
with contaminated units. Table 17.25-1 lists the overall capabilities and deficiencies associated
with the staff’s ability to assess the impact of restoration activities on tactical objectives. While
the staff has the ability to assess the situation and determine priorities, it is unlikely they will be
able to meet the time requirements without automated assistance and the development of specific
doctrine and TTPs. The overall current assessment is “red.”
Projected Near/Mid-Term Capabilities and Deficiencies
Capability will improve in the near/mid-term as results of the Restoration Operations Advanced
Capability Technology Demonstration are incorporated into DOTLPF and TTPs. The overall
assessment will improve to “yellow.”
Projected Far-Term Capabilities and Deficiencies
The capability will continue to improve in the far-term as additional exercises and experiments
focus on restoration operations. Improvements will be evident in TTPs and DOTLPF. Further,
the fielding of automated systems will improve the time and accuracy of restoration operation
assessments. The overall assessment will improve to “green” in the far term.

Capabilities and Deficiencies Assessment Summary
Table 17.27-1 discusses the capability that currently exists to perform the task to the designated
standard. Any tactical unit and staff that have a salvage capability can perform this task, but there
are some deficiencies that affect the efficiency with which a salvage unit can perform under
contamination conditions.
Current Capabilities and Deficiencies
Any tactical unit and staff with the ability to conduct salvage operations have the ability to
conduct salvage operations to recover critical materiel in a contaminated environment/situation.
Table 17.27-1 lists the overall capabilities and deficiencies associated with the tactical
unit/staff’s ability to conduct salvage operations to recover critical materiel in a contaminated
environment/situation. In particular, specific doctrine and TTPs that address salvage operations
in a chemical, biological, and radiological or nuclear contaminated environment do not exist.
Issues such as planning, personal protective equipment, and decontamination are several aspects
of salvage operations that must be addressed by procedures and doctrine.
Projected Near/Mid-Term Capabilities and Deficiencies
There are currently no projected capabilities being assessed that would increase effectiveness in
conducting and completing this task.

There are currently no projected capabilities being assessed that would increase effectiveness in

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.
1.
Deficiency: Procedures to guide recovery of salvageable contaminated critical materiel do
not exist.
Non-Materiel Solutions: Doctrine: Develop standardized procedures to guide recovery of
salvageable contaminated critical materiel.
2.
Deficiency: There is no specific listing of what can or cannot be decontaminated during
salvage operations.
Non-Materiel Solutions: Doctrine: Develop a listing of what can or cannot be
decontaminated during salvage operations.
3.
Deficiency: There are no TTPs for disposal in conjunction with salvage operations.
Non-Materiel Solutions: Doctrine: Develop TTPs on how to specifically conduct hazardous
disposal in conjunction with salvage operations.
4.
Deficiency: No specific doctrine exists that has been developed through actionable results of
experimentation or lessons learned from exercises.
Non-Materiel Solutions: Doctrine: Develop doctrine on recovery of salvageable
contaminated critical materiel.
5.
Deficiency: This task is not integrated into salvage operation training or exercises.
Non-Materiel Solutions: Training: Integrate this task into unit training/exercises and
develop guidelines for how to do so.

IMA Assessment Summary
The analysis of this task has determined the need for non-materiel solutions only, and therefore
no IMAs are required.

17.28.1.1
Definition
To conduct exploitation operations. A component commander may be directed by the JTF
commander to conduct exploitation operations for the explicit purpose of eliminating the CBRN
weapons or capabilities held by an adversary. Specifically, these include U.S. military operations
across the range of military operations (ROMO). The assigned task of exploitation includes
locating, characterizing, and securing CBRN materiel, weapons, equipment, personnel, and
infrastructure, and developing appropriate forensic evidence. Also, it includes field
decontamination as required.

To conduct disposition or destruction operations. A component or unit commander may be
directed by the JTF commander to conduct disposition or destruction operations for the explicit
purpose of eliminating the CBRN weapons or capabilities held by an adversary. Specifically,
these may include U.S. military operations across the ROMO. The assigned task of disposition or
destruction includes destroying, dismantling, rendering safe, removing, transferring, or otherwise
verifiably disposing of CBRN materiel, weapons, equipment, and infrastructure. It also includes
operations to prevent/reduce the chance for misuse of sensitive materiel.
