Coast Guard Mission Needs Statement Coast Guard Mission Needs Statement January 8, 2016 Fiscal Year 2015 Report to Congress United States Coast Guard This page was intentionally left blank January 8, 2016 Executive Summary As a maritime nation, America’s economic prosperity and national interests are inextricably linked to the sea. In an age of increasing globalization, rapid technological advancements, and growing threats, the Coast Guard remains an indispensable instrument of national security and prosperity. As a military service and branch of the armed forces, federal law enforcement agency, maritime first responder, regulatory agency, humanitarian organization, and member of the intelligence community, the Coast Guard brings a unique blend of authorities, capabilities, and competencies to the defense of the Nation. Over the past 225 years, the Coast Guard’s missions have evolved along with the United States and the world. Today, the Coast Guard ensures the safety, security, and stewardship of our Nation’s maritime domain, protecting more than 100,000 miles of U.S. coastline and inland waterways – and its supporting infrastructure, saving thousands of lives per year, and safeguarding the world’s largest Exclusive Economic Zone. The Service’s 11 missions are both broad and complex, and range from Search and Rescue and Counter Drug Enforcement to Icebreaking and Marine Environmental Protection. While Coast Guard responsibilities are diverse, its multi-mission nature and culture of adaptability provide the Service with the ability to shift rapidly from one mission to another as conditions or national priorities change, ensuring its enduring value to the Nation. To understand the mission needs of the Coast Guard, one must first understand its missions. As such, this document begins by providing an overview of each mission, describing its elements, goals and objectives, and the stakeholders who carry out and benefit from the associated activities. The mission sections also discuss the trends and strategic environment affecting each mission both now and in the future – from the rise of transnational organized crime and cyber threats to resource competition and climate change. These global forces impact all of our activities – driving demand for an increased Coast Guard presence both within the United States and internationally. Finally, the document discusses the Coast Guard’s broad statutory authorities, the enduring capabilities necessary to best use those authorities to carry out its missions, and the robust partnerships leading to greater unity of effort. Importantly, the Mission Needs Statement does not attempt to identify specific assets to meet mission requirements. The pace of technological development is too rapid and fluid to predict the tools that will be available to the Service in the coming decades. Rather, this document focuses on the enduring capabilities that the Coast Guard requires, regardless of the ultimate materiel solution. ii Coast Guard Mission Needs Statement Table of Contents I.

Legislative Language This report responds to the language set forth in the Joint Explanatory Statement, House Report 113­ 481, and Senate Report 113-198, which accompany the Fiscal Year (FY) 2015 Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Appropriations Act (P.L. 114-4) and Section 215 of the Howard Coble Coast Guard and Maritime Transportation Act of 2014 (P.L. 113-281). The Joint Explanatory Statement includes the following: Mission Needs Statement Not later than July 1, 2015, the Commandant shall submit to the Committees a new Mission Needs Statement (MNS), which will be used to inform the out-year CIP. The MNS should assume that the Coast Guard requires the capability to continue to carry out all of its eleven statutory missions. House Report 113-481 includes the following: Mission Needs Statement The Committee directs the Commandant to conduct a new mission needs statement (MNS), to be submitted with the fiscal year 2016 budget, which takes into account the funding proposed in the five-year Capital Investment Plan (CIP) submitted for that fiscal year. The MNS shall describe which missions the Coast Guard will not be able to achieve for any year in which a gap exists between the mission hour targets and projected mission hours for new and legacy assets based on the proposed CIP. Senate Report 113-198 includes the following: Analysis of Mission Requirements To ensure the out-year CIP adequately meets Coast Guard operational needs, the Coast Guard shall conduct an analysis of mission requirements. This analysis should assume that the Coast Guard needs the capability to continue to carry out all of its 11 statutory missions. In this analysis, the Coast Guard should also outline options for acquisition plans that consider reasonable combinations of alternative capabilities of surface assets (including an icebreaker) and air assets to determine the most cost effective method of executing mission needs as determined in the analysis described above. The Howard Coble Coast Guard and Maritime Transportation Act of 2014 includes the following: SEC. 215. MISSION NEED STATEMENT (a) IN GENERAL.—Section 569 of title 14, United States Code, is amended to read as follows: 1 § 569. Mission need statement (a) IN GENERAL.—On the date on which the President submits to Congress a budget for fiscal year 2016 under section 1105 of title 31, on the date on which the President submits to Congress a budget for fiscal year 2019 under such section, and every 4 years thereafter, the Commandant shall submit to the Committee on Transportation and Infrastructure of the House of Representatives and the Committee on Commerce, Science, and Transportation of the Senate an integrated major acquisition mission need statement. (b) DEFINITIONS.—In this section, the following definitions apply: (1) INTEGRATED MAJOR ACQUISITION MISSION NEED STATEMENT.—The term ‘integrated major acquisition mission need statement’ means a document that— (A) identifies current and projected gaps in Coast Guard mission capabilities using mission hour targets; (B) explains how each major acquisition program addresses gaps identified under subparagraph (A) if funded at the levels provided for such program in the most recently submitted capital investment plan; and (C) describes the missions the Coast Guard will not be able to achieve, by fiscal year, for each gap identified under subparagraph (A). (2) MAJOR ACQUISITION PROGRAM.—The term ‘major acquisition program’ has the meaning given that term in section 569a(e). (3) CAPITAL INVESTMENT PLAN.—The term ‘capital investment plan’ means the plan required under section 663(a)(1).’’ 2 II. Introduction and Strategic Context The Coast Guard last updated its MNS in 2004, less than a year and a half after the formation of DHS. The 2004 MNS discussed the role of the Coast Guard and its missions in the post-9/11

    DEPARTMENT OF HOMELAND SECURITY U. S. COAST GUARD STATEMENT OF ADMIRAL THAD W. ALLEN COMMANDANT U. S. COAST GUARD ON THE COAST GUARD BUDGET REQUEST FOR FISCAL YEAR 2008 BEFORE THE SUBCOMMITTEE ON OCEANS, ATMOSPHERE, FISHERIES & COAST GUARD COMMITTEE ON COMMERCE, SCIENCE & TRANSPORTATION U. S. SENATE 18 APRIL 2007 INTRODUCTION Madam Chairman and distinguished members of the subcommittee: Good morning, I am pleased to appear before the Subcommittee today to discuss the President’s fiscal year 2008 budget request for the Coast Guard. Before I begin, I would like to take this opportunity to explain how I view the roles and missions of the Coast Guard, as well as the direction in which I am taking the Service. ROLES AND MISSIONS The Coast Guard is the principal federal service charged with maritime safety, security, and stewardship. The Coast Guard protects the Nation’s vital interests—the safety and security of the Nation’s citizenry, its natural and economic resources, and the territorial integrity of its maritime borders; it operates wherever those interests may be at risk—the navigable waters of the United States, along the Nation’s coasts, and in international waters. These roles and missions have accrued to the Coast Guard over two centuries of service because they serve a collective good and, significantly, a single federal maritime force can most efficiently and effectively accomplish them. More importantly, these roles and missions are converging. The Nation’s response to increasing pressures on the Nation’s waterways and maritime resources and expanding external security threats is having a profound impact on the development of new management regimes for the U.S.

Bradley, April 7, 2006 ©Adams Center, Virginia Military Institute About the interviewer: Cadet Anthony T. Bradley ('07), International Studies Major, History Minor from Queens, NY, will be commissioning in the U.S. Navy, pursuing a career in naval aviation. Bradley: Good day, sir. Today, 7 April 2006, I, Cadet Anthony T. Bradley of the Virginia Military Institute, will be interviewing Captain Lloyd Burger of the United States Coast Guard for the John A. Adams Class of 1971 Center for Military History and Strategic Analysis as part of the requirements for History 391— History of Sea Power in the 20th Century. The captain now lives in Raphine, Virginia and is enjoying his retirement from military service with his family. Thank you for being here sir. Burger: Thank you for inviting me. Bradley: First I would like to give a brief overview of the United States Coast Guard because many people are not aware of its rich history and important mission. Established 4 August 1790, the United States Coast Guard is one of the United States’ five armed services. The first Congress authorized the construction of 10 vessels to enforce tariff and trade laws, prevent smuggling and protect the collection of the federal revenue. Known variously as the Revenue Marines and the Revenue Cutter Service, it expanded in size and responsibilities as the nation grew. These added responsibilities which included humanitarian duties such as aiding mariners in distress and law enforcement functions also continued to expand.

  • Maritime 20 RISK OCT
    Maritime 20 RISK OCT. 26-30,2020 OCT. UIUC Symposium 20 Welcome to the Maritime Risk Symposium 2020 The Critical Infrastructure Resilience Institute (CIRI), a Department of Homeland Security Center of Excellence, is host of the 11th Annual Maritime Risk Symposium (MRS 2020) in collaboration with the National Academy of Sciences. The theme of MRS 2020 is “Maritime Resilience in Black Swan Events.” DHS defines resilient infrastructure systems as the “ability of systems, infrastructures, government, business, communities, and individuals to resist, tolerate, absorb, recover from, prepare for, or adapt to an adverse occurrence that causes harm, destruction, or loss of national significance.” Through presentations, panels and open forums, the symposium will focus on the attributes of resilience to adversarial events of national significance in the maritime domain, using our experience with COVID-19 as a driver for the discussion. The objective is less about the specific impacts COVID-19 had and is having, and more on how that event informs us on resiliency for future global upsets, in terms of what works, what gaps have been exposed, and what research questions ought to be studied as a first step towards enhancing Maritime Resilience. Agenda 26 All times are in Central Time.
