1. Joint Task Force Civil Support (JTF-CS) Command Briefing Col Bob Lyles

2. Save Lives, Prevent Injury Provide Temporary Critical Life Support
What is JTF-CS?
A standing Joint Task Force HQ of approximately 160 military and civilian personnel located at Fort Monroe, Virginia
A deployable Command and Control headquarters for DoD units and personnel executing consequence management (CM) operations in response to a CBRNE incident
Source of response plans for essential DoD support to the Lead Federal Agency (LFA)
Mission Statement
JTF Civil Support plans and integrates DoD support to the designated Lead Federal Agency for domestic CBRNE consequence management. When directed by Commander USNORTHCOM, JTF-CS will deploy to the incident site and establish command and control of designated DoD forces to provide military assistance to civil authorities.
Save Lives, Prevent Injury
Provide Temporary Critical Life Support

3. Chemical Biological Radiological Nuclear Explosive Definition of CBRNE
CBRNE is defined as a chemical, biological, radiological, nuclear, or high-yield explosive situation or incident
Incidents include industrial accidents, acts of nature, acts of war, or terrorism
A Weapon of Mass Destruction (WMD) is a CBRNE device or material specifically designed to produce casualties or terror
Chemical

CBRNE Threat Spectrum
CJCSI Specified Tasks M O S T L I K E H D A
As directed by USNORTHCOM, works with the lead agency for CM, FEMA, to develop tailored force CM packages and scenario-based task organizations designed to respond to foreseeable CBRNE situations.

5. AREA OF RESPONSIBILITY Northern Marinas Islands
A Unique Mission
Effective CBRNE response requires a very different set of resources, skills, and experience
-- Situational awareness
-- Pre-planning
-- Pre-identifying appropriate personnel
and organizations
DoD traditionally stands ready to assist state and local authorities in response to natural disasters

JTF-CS provides CBRNE planning, exercise, and response support within the U.S., its territories and possessions

6. Overarching DoD Principles
Consistent with Constitution / Public Law
Unequivocal civilian oversight / accountability
Always in support of Lead Federal Agency (LFA)
Emphasize DoD roles, skills, and structures
Guard / Reserve are key players for Consequence Management (CM)
JTF-CS cannot perform routine law enforcement 7

7. Full Spectrum Responsibility

Disaster Occurs
City requests aid from state
Local first responders react
DHS implements Federal “National” Response Plan
President declares major disaster or emergency
Governor requests Presidential Disaster Declaration through DHS
JTF-CS
responds
(when directed)
Secretary of Defense authorizes DoD support

18. Conclusion
Always in support of a Lead Federal Agency for domestic CBRNE incidents
When directed, JTF-CS deploys to the incident site to establish command and control of assigned DoD forces
Emphasize DoD roles, skills & structures
Forces pre-identified to support CM planning and response
Early situational awareness is essential
In conclusion, I’d like you to take away these key points about the mission of JTF-CS:
Our planning and liaison are continual.
We deploy as a last resort, only after the incident overwhelms the resources available to the local, state and federal authorities and our assistance is requested by the Lead Federal Agency.
As soon as stability is reestablished, DoD forces will return to their home stations.
JTF-CS is ready to save lives, prevent injury, and provide temporary critical life support after a domestic CBRNE incident.
