  2. History Repeats Itself Shinyo and Maru-ni : Motorboats with explosives in bow.

  3. Introduction to the Implementation Plan • Overall roadmap • Links security program elements to goals and objectives • Indicates way ahead for education, coordination and communications • Illustrates Defense in Depth and Operations Community Model

  4. Implementation PlanDevelopment Timeline USCG / CBP Strategic Principles OUTCOMES National Small Vessel Security Summit Release of Small Vessel Security Strategy Release of Small Vessel Security Strategy Implementation Plan National Summit Report ACTIVITIES Identification of SV Risk Regional Small Vessel Security Summits 2006 2007 2008 2009 2010 2011 Working Group Development and Maintenance of Small Vessel Security Strategy Implementation Plan Formation of SVS Working Group IP Review & Approval

  5. Goal A: Develop and leverage a strong partnership with the small vessel community and public and private sectors to enhance maritime domain awareness Example: America’s Waterways Watch (AWW 2.0) • AWW - National Citizen Awareness Program; primarily supported through National Response Center and USCG Auxiliary; received DoD Innovative Readiness and Training Funding until 2007. • AWW – 2.0 (Collaborative) • Full circle communications; • Use of social networks (Twitter, Facebook, Google Earth, Vine) • Bring in Citizen Action Network (CAN) • Cooperate with Focus Lens (FL) as intelligence, coordination, domain awareness, assessment tool for determining initiation points for small vessel attacks

  6. Goal B: Enhance maritime security and safety based on a coherent plan with a layered, state-of-the-art approach Elements: • Improved Notice of Arrival (NOA) policies and procedures • New AIS regulations for carriage on commercial vessels 65 feet and longer; tugs of 26 feet and longer with over 600 horsepower; and certain passenger carrying vessels. • Promotion of state participation in the Vessel Identification System. • Improvement of CI/KR planning for small vessel threat • Enhancing Naval Vessel Protection Zones around naval vessels and submarines. • Small Vessel Reporting System (SVRS) – CBP • Proposed Pilot for Small Vessel Security Strategy Implementation Plan

  7. Goal C : Leverage technology to enhance the ability to detect, determine intent, and, when necessary, interdict suspicious small vessels Elements: • Identify WBIED counter-measures. • Develop a range of non-lethal solutions to stop and interdict small vessels. • Standardize warning signage for limited-access areas. • Evaluate the effectiveness of various escort systems in protecting high-value assets. • Conduct a maritime test campaign to determine the effectiveness of commercial off-the-shelf mobile standoff radiation detectors in the maritime domain.

  8. Goal D : Enhance coordination, cooperation, and communications among federal, state, local, tribal, territorial, and international partners Interagency Operation Centers • The Coast Guard has a major acquisition project underway to provide increased capabilities to port partners at all IOCs using $71 million in funding provided in the fiscal years 2008-2010. • Interagency Collaboration: Past two years, USCG/CBP/ICE through an executive level Senior Guidance Team (SGT) facilitated development of IOC Concept of Operations and business processes with our Port Partner stakeholders. The SGT identified and promulgated a series of best practices for component coordination at the local level. • SeaHawk: DHS/USCG assumed operation of DOJ’s former Project SeaHawk (Charleston, South Carolina) on October 1, 2009. It has been a demonstration project that continues to provide baseline metrics for small vessel security implementation and assist in setting IOC capabilities.

  9. Implementation Plan: Moving Forward • DHS Planning Process • Senior Guidance Team (SGT) • ONE - DHS • International Coordination
