Interagency Working Group for AA&E and Hazardous Material Security Management

On January 25, 2005, Mr. Fred Schutz of ADUSD (TP) outlined tasks for establishing an interagency working group focused on managing the security and distribution of Arms, Ammunition, and Explosives (AA&E) as well as other hazardous materials. Key tasks include identifying participants, developing a charter, and conducting quarterly meetings to coordinate policy changes and enhance collaboration. Key participants include the OSD, OASD(HD), and DHS, among others. The group's effectiveness hinges on joint DoD and Federal support across various domains, including logistics, safety, and security.
