2000-2001 Annual Report 1 The Honorable Bob Taft Governor of Ohio 30th Floor 77 South High Street Columbus, Ohio 43215 Dear Governor Taft, I am pleased to present you with the Adjutant Generals Department annual report for 2000. It provides financial information for the states fiscal year, July 1, 1999, through June 30, 2000, and highlights the departments training year, which extended through September 2000. The department underwent a major restructuring this year, as recommended by a task force which addressed concerns such as enhanced communication, increased tasking and customer satisfaction. The development of two directorates, Joint Op- erations and Public Relations, and the streamlining of state and federal Human Resources were a few significant results of the reorganization. During this reporting period, Ohios Army Guard engineers returned to Nicara- gua to continue recovery efforts from Hurricanes Mitch and Georges, while an- other contingent performed road and bridge construction and repair in Eagle Pass, Texas, to aid Border Patrol agents on the U.S.-Mexico border. The states Air Guard units provided airlift, fighter and aerial refueling support through various Aerospace Expeditionary Force (AEF) commitments, while support units and indi- viduals deployed separately to perform Expeditionary Combat Support contingen- cies (ESC) world-wide. In a joint effort, Air and Army Guardmembers worked New Years Eve for Ohios Y2K prevention efforts, and were prepared to assist the state with commu- nications, transportation and security missions. Nearly 40 guardmembers provided security, traffic control and public affairs support after a tornado destroyed many homes and businesses in the city of Xenia, and 12 members assisted the Ohio Department of Health in the distribution of oral anti-rabies vaccinations to the wild raccoon population in six northeastern counties. Thanks in part to the reinstatement of the 100 percent college tuition benefit, the states Air Guard exceeded its authorized strength goal and the Army Guard sur- passed its ambitious recruitment goal during this fiscal year. Just as your adminis- tration and the General Assembly has committed to the well-being of our organiza- tion, I pledge to you that as we enter the new millennium all the assets of the Adjutant Generals Department will remain dedicated to fulfilling our many obliga- tions to community, state and nation. Sincerely, John H.

  • Ohio Air National Guard Base on Short List for New Cyber Mission
    Nov. 21, 2020 Log# 20-30 For Immediate Release Ohio Air National Guard base on short list for new cyber mission COLUMBUS, Ohio — The Ohio Air National Guard’s 179th Airlift Wing at Mansfield-Lahm Airport in Mansfield, Ohio, is one of two sites selected as possible locations for a new mission. The U.S. Department of Defense notified Gov. Mike DeWine on Nov. 20, 2020, that the U.S. Air Force had selected Mansfield as a candidate location to host an Air National Guard Information Warfare (Cyber) Wing (IWW). “This is exciting news,” said Maj. Gen. John C. Harris Jr., Ohio adjutant general and commander of the Ohio National Guard. “This potential new mission for the men and women of the Ohio Air National Guard would bring in-demand cybersecurity positions to the area. It would position us in the middle of the military’s cutting edge cyber capability and the fight against emerging cyber threats.” The Mansfield site is one of two being considered for the IWW, with the other being Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport in Minnesota. The Air Force is expected to conduct site surveys at each of the two locations. The mission is planned to begin transitioning in 2022. The 179th currently flies the C-130 Hercules transport aircraft on missions across the United States and around the world. In addition, the unit participates in disaster relief efforts and other domestic emergencies as required. There are approximately 900 members at the wing. -30- FOR MORE INFORMATION, CONTACT: Stephanie Beougher, public information officer, at 614-506-3490 or [email protected].

  • California Rare & Endagered Birds
    California brown pelican Pelecanus occidentalis californicus State Endangered 1971 Fully Protected Federal Endangered 1970 General Habitat: The California brown pelican uses a variety of natural and human-created sites, including offshore islands and rocks, sand spits, sand bars, jetties, and piers, for daytime loafing and nocturnal roosting. Preferred nesting sites provide protection from mammalian predators and sufficient elevation to prevent flooding of nests. The pelican builds a nest of sticks on the ground, typically on islands or offshore rocks. Their nesting range extends from West Anacapa Island and Santa Barbara Island in Channel Islands National Park to Islas Los Coronados, immediately south of and offshore from San Diego, and Isla San Martín in Baja California Norte, Mexico. Description: The brown pelican is one of two species of pelican in North America; the other is the white pelican. The California brown pelican is a large, grayish-brown bird with a long, pouched bill. The adult has a white head and dark body, but immature birds are dark with a white belly. The brown pelican weighs up to eight pounds and may have a wingspan of seven feet. Brown pelicans dive from flight to capture surface-schooling marine fishes. Status: The California brown pelican currently nests on West Anacapa Island and Santa Barbara Island in Channel Islands National Park. West Anacapa Island is the largest breeding population of California. In Mexico, the pelicans nest on Islas Los Coronados and Isla San Martín. Historically, the brown pelican colony on Islas Los Coronados was as large as, or larger than, that of recent years on Anacapa Island.

Ohio Army National Guard Wins the OPE Gold Level Achievement of Excellence. The Ohio Partnership for Excellence Board of Trustees on April 28 announced the Ohio Army Guard as a 2010 award recipient. OPE is Ohio‟s Baldrige-based quality program. They partner with organizations using the internationally-recognized Baldrige Criteria for Performance Excellence to assist them to improve their performance and increase effectiveness. OPE‟s primary product is a comprehensive organizational assessment that helps organizational leaders better understand and prioritize key strengths and opportunities for improvement. While the assessment is the foundation, OPE‟s main focus is on organizational learning, resource optimization and improvement. This is the Ohio Army National Guard's second year as a participant in the OPE program. The Army Guard has benefited greatly from its decade long Army Communities of Excellence (ACOE) participation, winning national awards in 2003, 2006, and 2009. Although both programs use the same criteria, OPE provides a very different focus from that of the ACOE program, in that it is non- military and is administered by skilled examiners who are leaders in Ohio communities. The insights already gained have been significant and have greatly enhanced the efficiency and effectiveness of the Army Guard.
