EDO(N) Community Status Brief

EDO(N) Program Background EDO(N) Program - established in 1997 Produces officers to serve as RCOH/NEWCON CVN Reactor Officers Provides Engineering Duty Officer community with officers qualified to be Major Program Managers or Major Shore Commanders Retains SWO(N)s for nuclear duty by providing a career path with fewer at-sea requirements Developed in conjunction with SWO(N) career path SWO(N) Community is sole source for EDO(N) accessions Lateral transfer of up to 10 SWO(N)s per YG (Nominal 2) EDO(N) NOIP policy modeled after SWO(N)s

EDO(N) Program Health EDO(N) Community Health Average of 2 SWO(N)s per YG have transferred to EDO(N) community Community strength: 32 EDO(N)s at various phases of career Cadre of ED officers with CVN operational experience EDO(N) RO enhances Reactor Dept in RCOH/NEWCON/IA SY experience with organization/structure/production schedules Provides additional nuclear experience to ED community EDO(N)s fill nuclear related S/Y, planning, acquisition, and design billets

Assistant Reactor Officer Purpose Enhance RO’s focus on the execution of propulsion plant operations, maintenance, and training by: Enforcing the standards, priorities, and departmental philosophy Providing an experienced quality cut on departmental administration Supporting external coordination requirements (TYCOM, RPPY, JTG, etc.) Leverage nuclear expertise of SWO(N) and EDO(N) officers no longer on track to be a Reactor Officer Would otherwise lose nuclear qualifications SWO(N)s not screened for CO Afloat EDO(N)s not selected for continuation and future RO eligibility at 15 YCS maintain eligibility for Nuclear Officer Incentive Pay

Assistant Reactor Officer Selection and Assignment Picked by administrative board SWO(N)s following XO-SM or XO Afloat tours EDO(N)s following unsuccessful second look for continuation Nominally 3-4 officers needed each year Timing of the ARO tour dependent on ARO Billet Availability and the Officer’s career management timing for future statutory and administrative boards If possible, PERS 445 and 424 will work with Officer to ensure DAWIA requirements are completed prior to detailing to ARO tour Must be under orders to an ARO billet by 30 Sept of year following selection 36 month tour Financially incentivized Nuclear COPAY eligibility continues through ARO tour and beyond until reaching 21 YCS or 3 years away from nuclear billet (whichever occurs later)
