  2. What is the CAW? • Navy led organization, established in 1999, with a focus on Multi-Agency response to: • Terrorism and Natural disasters in the Maritime/ Port and CBRNE environment.   This includes the pre-event phase including INTEL build-up through the Emergency Management and Consequence Management phases. • The CAW organization has three major focus areas: • Training and Education • Exercises; including simple to complex Multi-Agency • Technology; including Experimentation and Assessment • CAW events are sponsored by: • DOD • Other Federal Agencies • State and Local governments and private industry.

  3. CAW Locations • The CAW is headquartered at Naval Base Ventura County, Pt. Mugu, California • The CAW has three regional offices located in the Pacific Northwest, the Hawaiian Islands and Northern Virginia.

The primary exercise objectives are to: • Provide agencies the opportunity to exercise plans and procedures, and assess the types of systems needed to guide the prevention, response, and recovery from terrorist events occurring in the NW Region. • Further enhance their understanding of the roles and responsibilities, capabilities and limitations, of other agencies in order to better promote interagency operations within the ICS structure. • Build on lessons learned from previous AWI exercise series, focusing on the enhancement of agency understanding and application of ICS concepts. • The second goal is to meet the exercise requirements provided by the participants during the planning phase. This exercise will be conceived and developed from the bottom up through a series of meetings with interested agencies. The set of participants’ objectives will be the defining elements of the exercise development and will be addressed through the design of scenario events that will provide the required type and level of play.

  9. East Coast Initiative • The CAW has a Congressional HLD/HLS East Coast Initiative for FY 2007 & 2008 (Senators Warner, Webb Collins & Snowe) • The objective is provide multi-agency exercises that would lead to improved communication & coordination between DoD and DHS entities, state and local governments and first responders • We are working with Maine, New Hampshire and Virginia’s homeland security entities, the USCG and other federal agencies, AMSC and National Guard Civil Support Teams
