ROGER WICKER, U.S. SENATOR FROM MISSISSIPPI Senator WICKER. Good morning, one and all. Thank you for your attendance and interest today. Today we will consider the nomina- tion of Vice Admiral Karl Schultz to be promoted to Admiral and to become the 26th Commandant of the U.S. Coast Guard. The Coast Guard has had a tremendous year by all accounts. As our Nation’s smallest armed service, it has repeatedly shown its value to the American people. The Coast Guard yielded record re- sults last year in its mission to combat the flow of illegal narcotics by transnational criminal organizations. In total, the Coast Guard interdicted more than $6.6 billion worth of cocaine and other drugs before they could reach our shores, while apprehending more than 600 smugglers for prosecution. This past fall, we experienced one of the most catastrophic hurri- cane seasons on record. Hurricane Harvey in Texas, Hurricane Irma in the Caribbean and Southeast United States, Hurricane Maria in Puerto Rico, and Hurricane Nate along the Gulf Coast caused an unprecedented $200 billion in damages. This eclipsed the previous record of $159 billion, which we experienced in 2005 from Hurricane Katrina. And yet for every storm that battered our shores, the Coast Guard answered the call, surging personnel from all over the coun- try to provide relief to affected communities. The Coast Guard esti- mates that the heroic actions of their men and women saved more than 11,000 lives. Despite these noteworthy results, there are numerous challenges ahead for the service as it continues to take on more and more re- sponsibility. We are seeing significant increases in vessel traffic in (1) VerDate Nov 24 2008 13:41 Mar 04, 2020 Jkt 000000 PO 00000 Frm 00005 Fmt 6633 Sfmt 6633 S:\GPO\DOCS\39949.TXT JACKIE 2 the Arctic as opening waterways offer new commercial opportuni- ties for the maritime industry. The Coast Guard will be relied upon for search and rescue, fisheries management, and environmental enforcement in these hazardous waters. Currently, the Coast Guard is performing its missions with anti- quated equipment and aging ships that are in constant danger of breaking down. The Coast Guard’s sole heavy icebreaker, the POLAR STAR, was commissioned in 1967 and is a single point of failure for the U.S. presence in the Arctic. Other legacy assets, such as the high endurance cutters and the inland river tenders are more than 40 and 50 years old. The Coast Guard is in the midst of a major recapitalization ef- fort. It is Congress’ responsibility to assist in this effort and to pro- vide the Coast Guard with adequate resources to meet increasing demands. I am pleased to report that the Senate will finally be considering the Coast Guard Authorization Act during this work period. Mem- bers from both sides of the aisle worked to pass this bill through the Committee last June. After more than 10 months, it is well past time that we move forward with this important piece of legis- lation. This bill would provide the Coast Guard with the pro- grammatic authorities necessary to address future challenges. Vice Admiral Karl Schultz is well qualified to lead the Coast Guard during this critical and challenging time. Throughout his 35 years of service, he has proven to be a trustworthy and capable leader. As the Atlantic Area Commander, Vice Admiral Schultz oversees all Coast Guard operations from the Rocky Mountains to the Arabian Gulf. He also serves as Commander, Defense Force East, where he is responsible for providing Coast Guard mission support

UNITED STATES MILITARY LISTINGS Joint Chiefs of Staff Nets High Frequency Global Communications System (HF-GCS) The U.S. Air Force High Frequency (HF) Global Communications System (HF-GCS) is a worldwide network that currently consist of 14 high-power HF stations which provide air/ground HF command and control radio communications between all Department of Defense (DoD) ground agencies, aircraft and ships. Allied military and other aircraft are also provided support in accordance with agreements and international protocols as appropriate. The HF-GCS is not dedicated to any service or command, but supports all authorized users on a traffic precedence basis. On June 1, 1992, the former Global HF System (GHFS) was created by consolidating other U.S. Air Force (USAF) and U.S. Navy (USN) HF networks, including the USAF Global Command and Control System (GCCS), the Navy’s Ship-to-Shore High Command (HICOM) network, and the dedicated Strategic Air Command (SAC) Giant Talk System. The goal of the merger was to develop one worldwide non-dedicated HF network capable of providing Command and Control (C2) HF communications support to all authorized DoD aircraft and ground stations. As of 1 October 2002, the former GHFS network is now known as the HF Global Communications System (HF-GCS).

  • Delays Due to Ice Have Stressed the Supply Chain to the Breaking Point
    ICEBREAKING SERIOUS BUSINESS $1 BILLION AND OVER 5,000 JOBS LOST IN 2019 DUE TO INADEQUATE ICEBREAKING ON THE GREAT LAKES ERIC PEACE Operations and Communications Lake Carriers’ Association report commissioned by the Lake Carriers’ Association found that ice-related delays and cargoes Aleft on the dock during the 2018/19 ice season on the Great Lakes had a tremendous negative impact to the national economy. However, this wasn’t a once-in-a-lifetime event. In 2014 and 2015 there was a combined two-year loss of $1 billion and another 5,800 jobs due to inadequate icebreaking resources. When the shipping season opens, the fleet needs to work efficiently and effectively to move various cargoes of iron ore, limestone, coal, cement and other dry bulk materi- als such as grain, salt and sand. With a shortened season of nine and half months, every shipment is vitally important. Unfortunately, delays due to ice have stressed the supply chain to the breaking point. The definition of success Last year’s ice season was calculated as normal by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration during the extended navigation season—before the Sault Ste. Marie Lock closure on January 15 and after spring breakout—which coincides with the opening of the locks on March 25. Very few, if any, Great Lakes ships are moving during the closed navigation season, as most U.S. carriers Delays due to ice have are investing in the sustainment and upgrades to their fleet. The root of the issue is a lack of icebreaking assets on stressed the supply chain the Great Lakes.
