The Strategy is based upon five key strategic objectives that have been agreed upon as fundamental if Canada is to achieve sustainable resilience to the risks and threats of CBRNE events. They are : 1. Leadership - to guide coordinated policy and program development by all levels of government and contributors that will foster and promote CBRNE resilience; 2. Risk Management - to integrate CBRNE into a consistent all-hazards risk management approach, including robust hazard, vulnerability and risk assessment methodologies; 3. Capability-based planning - to inform policy, program and investment decisions based on the principles of capability-based planning. 4. Effective and interoperable workforce - to build an effective and interoperable workforce that is supported by a modern, dynamic and responsive training infrastructure backed up by appropriate technologies; and 5. Information and knowledge management - to develop effective information, knowledge and intelligence managements systems and mechanisms across all jurisdictions and contributors.

Chemical, Biological, Radiological, Nuclear, and high-yield Explosive (CBRNE) events have the potential to destabilize governments, create conditions that exacerbate violence or promote terrorism. This can trigger global repercussions. These events can quickly overwhelm the infrastructure and capability of the responders, especially in countries that do not have the specialized resources for response like those available in the United States. When a CBRNE incident occurs in a partner nation or other foreign country, the U.S. is often called upon to provide assistance. Interoperability - the ability to work together - among U.S. agencies, foreign governments, and responders involved in the effort is key to an efficient response. The effectiveness of the U.S. response and approach to CBRNE events in partner nations depends on the capability of the U.S. government to provide timely and appropriate assistance and the resilience of the partner nation to a CBRNE event. An All-of-Government Approach to Increase Resilience for International Chemical, Biological, Radiological, Nuclear, and Explosive (CBRNE) Events is the summary of a workshop convened in June 2013 by the National Institute of Standards and Technology and the National Research Council to discuss ways to strengthen the U.S. ability to prepare for and respond to CBRNE events that occur in U.S. partner nations. The workshop brought together diverse experts and stakeholders to identify capabilities that are necessary for responding to an international CBRNE event; discuss best practices and resources needed for improved interoperability of the U.S. and partner nation during response to a CBRNE event; and identify key questions that need to be addressed in follow up activities focused on improving U.S. CBRNE response in partner nations.

The DoD plays a support role in managing Chemical, Biological, Radiological, Nuclear, and High-Yield Explosives (CBRNE) incidents, including providing capabilities needed to save lives, alleviate hardship or suffering, and minimize property damage. This testimony addresses DoD¿s role in CBRNE consequence mgmt. efforts and addresses the extent to which: (1) DoD¿s plans and capabilities are integrated with other fed. gov¿t. plans; (2) DoD has planned for and structured its force to provide CBRNE consequence mgmt. assistance; (3) DoD¿s CBRNE Consequence Mgmt. Response Forces (CCMRF) are prepared to perform their mission; and (4) DoD has funding plans for the CCMRF that are linked to requirements for specialized CBRNE capabilities. Illus.

The United States currently lacks a comprehensive strategy for countering the threat of terrorism involving nuclear, radiological, chemical, and-most glaringly -- biological weapons. Although federal, state, and local governments have made impressive strides to prepare for terrorism involving these weapons, the whole remains less than the sum of the parts. As a result, the United States is now at a crossroads. Although credit must be given where due, the time has come for a cold-eyed assessment and evaluation based on program reviews and other measures of effectiveness. This report offers such an assessment, providing a road map of near- and long-term priorities for senior federal officials to marshal federal, state, local, private sector, and nongovernmental resources for defending the U.S. homeland against chemical, biological, radiological, and nuclear (CBRN) terrorism.

"Understanding Chemical, Biological, Radiological, Nuclear, and Explosives (CBRNE) defense policies is critical in promoting safety to civilian and military personnel in the United States and globally. This thesis first examines a few of the most significant CBRNE policies in history, their place in the world today, and how their creation has impacted society. Utilizing two canonical policy making models– the “linear model” and the “policy stream model”– a range of case studies are analyzed to examine how decision-making behind CBRNE policy compares with other comparable policy domains, particularly non-CBRNE biotechnology innovation. The likelihood of proactivity and the potential influence of foreign affairs across cases were assessed. The results of these studies suggest that, compared with non-CBRNE biotechnology policies, CBRNE policies in the United States are similarly likely to be driven by foreign events (approximately half the time in the cases examined), but they were slightly more likely to be reacting to external events rather than proactively addressing possible risks (43% of CBRNE cases examined were proactive, compared to 50% of biotechnology cases). These suggestive patterns merit further research to test whether they hold over a wider scope of cases."--Abstract.

This multiservice publication is designed for chemical, biological, radiological, and nuclear (CBRN) responders who plan and conduct CBRN consequence management (CM) operations in domestic, foreign, or theater operational environments, to include military installations. Department of Defense (DOD) personnel responding to a CBRN incident may be responsible for CBRN CM and/or crisis planning and may be required to execute plans across the conflict spectrum. This publication provides a reference for planning, resourcing, and executing CBRN CM in support of domestic or foreign agencies responding to a CBRN incident. Specific tactics, techniques, and procedures (TTP) are included in the appendixes. This manual incorporates the joint doctrine elements from Joint Publication (JP) 3-40, Joint Doctrine for Combating Weapons of Mass Destruction; JP 3-41, Chemical, Biological, Radiological, Nuclear, and High-Yield Explosives Consequence Management; and JP 3-11, Joint Doctrine for Operations in Nuclear, Biological, and Chemical Environments, for conducting CBRN CM (foreign and domestic), including planning, preparation, response, and recovery considerations. During operations, this publication is subordinate to current JPs addressing this topic.

"This Manual expands upon the guidance in Air Force Instruction (AFI) 10-2501, Air Force Emergency Management (EM) Program Planning and Operations. It also aligns the Air Force (AF) with Homeland Security Presidential Directive 5 (HSPD-5), the National Incident Management System (NIMS) and the National Response Framework (NRF). This Manual integrates operational approaches to conventional and irregular warfare passive defense and consequence management operations using Chemical, Biological, Radiological, Nuclear, and High Yield Explosive (CBRNE) materials. This Manual provides standards for planning, logistical requirements, emergency response actions, emergency response organizational guidelines, exercises and evaluations, personnel training, detection, identification, warning and notification actions. It establishes responsibilities, procedures and standards for prevention, preparedness, response, recovery and mitigation resulting from conventional or irregular attacks using CBRNE materials. Within the context of this document prevention action which are not referenced in the document are taken throughout preparedness phase of incident management to protect lives and property through the use of intelligence, inspections, vulnerability assessments and improved security methods in order to prevent or lessen the effects of attacks. This Manual includes CBRNE procedures for use both within the continental United States (CONUS) and Outside the Continental United States (OCONUS). Its prescribed planning process helps responders to achieve unity of effort, allocate and use resources effectively and identify shortfalls in their response capabilities. This publication applies to Active Duty, Air Force Reserve, and Air National Guard (ANG) units worldwide"--Pages 1-2.
