It is my pleasure to be here today to discuss the U.S. Coast Guard’s global operations, our support to the Department of State (DOS), and the Department of Defense (DoD) Geographic Combatant Commanders, as well as the role we play in the execution of the National Security and National Defense Strategy amidst the resumption of great power competition. The U.S. Coast Guard is a multi-mission, maritime service responsible for the safety, security, and stewardship of the high seas and waters subject to the jurisdiction of the United States. At all times a military service and branch of the U.S. Armed Forces, a federal law enforcement agency, a regulatory body, a first responder, and a member of the U.S. Intelligence Community, the U.S. Coast Guard operates on all seven continents and throughout the homeland, serving a nation whose national security and economic prosperity are inextricably linked to vast maritime interests. The U.S. Coast Guard protects and defends more than 100,000 miles of U.S. coastline and inland waterways, saves thousands of lives per year, and safeguards the world’s largest Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ), encompassing 4.5 million square miles of ocean.

I am pleased to be here to discuss the President’s fiscal year (FY) 2009 budget request for the Coast Guard. First, I thank you for the enduring support you have shown to the men and women of the United States Coast Guard and ask for your full support of the President’s request. The Coast Guard FY 2009 budget request sustains service delivery, continues critical recapitalization efforts and builds capacity in three strategic areas: marine safety, command and control, and intelligence and awareness. We need every dollar the President has requested. I open by sharing my professional views as Commandant on our strategic operating environment and the most immediate challenges facing the service today. These challenges provide an important backdrop for our budget request and the premium our workforce places on growth, pace of recapitalization and emergency sustainment. The Coast Guard delivered historic national results in 2007. We saved over 5,000 lives, removed a record $4.7 billion of cocaine from the global narcotics stream, rescued over 6,000 migrants on the high seas, and co-sponsored one of the largest oil spill exercises ever conducted.

The fire, which occurred several weeks ago, resulted from an unauthorized configuration change to equipment onboard the cutter. Fortunately, no injuries and only minor damage resulted from the mishap. However, the incident should have never occurred and the cost of response and repair never incurred, given that the fire was preventable with proper configuration management. While configuration management is not a new concept, our crews have inherited cutters lacking in documented central configuration control for years. Our modernization initiative, specifically our transformation to a new logistics business model, is driving us all to reassert discipline in our configuration management program and change control processes. Under the new business model, surveys are planned that will establish cutter configuration baselines. The baseline will be managed by a Product Line

Before turning these pages, take a moment — another moment if you already have — to think about the crew of HH- 65C 6505 who gave the ultimate sacrifice during a rescue training mission in Hawaii on September 4, 2008. Think about CDR Tom Nelson and LCDR Andy Wischmeier and PO1 Dave Skimin and PO2 Josh Nichols and their wives and their children.
