Enhancing CB Threat Reduction: DTRA's Strategic Mission

1. S&T Component of the CBDPDr Chuck GallawayDTRA/CBWorldwide Chemical Conference23 Oct 03

2. DTRA's Mission- Reduce the present threat Prepare for future threats We must make the world safer, by reducing the threat of weapons of mass destruction

3. Weapons of mass destruction are the most serious threat to the United States

4. Using a full spectrum of tools to reduce the present threat and prepare for future threats Arms Control: Inspecting threats and stopping them at national borders Threat Reduction: Dismantling the former Soviet nuclear arsenal in place and eliminating Iraqi weapons of mass destruction Technology Development: Developing, testing and fielding offensive and defensive technologies Chemical and Biological Defense: Assuring operations in hostile environments Combat Support: Assessing vulnerabilities, assuring the nuclear deterrent Making the World Safer

5. The CB threat is changing • Warfighter – during conflict • Traditional • Emerging • Expanded to include terrorism • DoD facilities • Homeland Defense

6. USD(AT&L) ADM expanded DTRA's role in CBDP

7. S&T team is an integral member of the CBDP team OSD provides oversight Joint Requirements Office (JRO) • Combatant Commanders • Services Required Capabilities JFOCS Prioritized Needs S&T Gaps Solutions Joint Program Executive Office (JPEO) DTRA/CB S&T Team Mature Technologies

10. DTRA is assisted by "outside" talent • Board of Advisors • Provide advice and recommendations to CB S&T Director • Flag Officers and SES's from JRO, JPEO, and Service S&T communities • Strategic Working Group • Translate higher level strategic guidance for use in S&T program planning • Action officer representatives of BOA members • Capability Managers • Manage all dimensions of S&T program in respective areas • 15 managers support medical, non-medical, and transition divisions

11. CB S&T Execution Team National Labs Services DTRA/CB Industry Universities

12. CBDP is making a large investment in S&T in FY04* Congressional Adds $143.4M S&T Cuts $25.8M CBDP S&T Budget Request $266.6M /($240.8M after cuts) FY04 Approved Budget: $384.2M (9/24/03)

13. Battlespace Management Command & Control; HazardAnalysis; and Modeling andSimulation Training CB Defense is a System of Systems Collective Protection Advanced Filtration Systemsand Equipment, and Sheltersfor Mobile Applications andFixed Sites. Contamination Avoidance Early Warning (Remote andStandoff Detection); PointDetection; Sensor Integration Individual Protection Medical and Non-Medical,Including Respiratory andPercutaneous Protection. CB Contamination Restoration Equipment, Facilities, and AreaDecontamination; Personnel/Patient Decontamination. Medical Surveillance andVeterinary, Prophylaxes, Therapeutics, and Diagnostics

14. S&T Efforts Maintain Robust Tech Base Answer Science Questions Transition Technologies

15. Agent Fate

16. CB S&T will be an integrated program Answer Science Questions

17. Medical S&T Efforts

18. Non-Medical S&T business areas

19. Low-level chemical warfare agent research will support operational risk management decisions Health Effects Inhalation Studies One Product Three Major Thrusts Integration Studies Science-Based Exposure Standards for Deployed Forces Medical portion of this joint medical/non-medical research effort will explore the potential for transient or sustained systemic toxicity of low dose exposure(s) to CWAs and predict human morbidity. • Studies include: • Behavioral and neurological consequences of exposure to CWAs • Conc-Time Profiles • Biomarkers • Route/Species Extrapolation USAMRICD SBCCOM • Detector limits & materiel requirements • How “dirty” is clean enough? • Diagnostics and therapeutics

20. Improving CBDP S&T • Improve alignment of RDT&E with warfighter needs • Provide innovative, timely S&T products • Improvetransition of S&T to advanced development

21. We will transition products out of S&T

22. We conduct high visibility demonstration projects for the warfighter

23. S&T ACTD Acquisition Requirements ACTD Evaluation Process • DTRA, JPEO CB and JRO CBRN Defenseassess ACTD candidate proposals • Evaluation process • Eliminate proposals not suitable for ACTD nomination • Identify proposals which are consistent with CBDP requirements, technology maturation and approach, and can be accommodated in an Acquisition Strategy • Identify those proposals in the initial screening which have issues which must be resolved to either meet ACTD acceptance or result in a decision to eliminate that candidate • Identify Joint Warfighting Exercise/Limited Objective Experiment options DTRA/CB JPEO CBD JRO CBRN Is there an existing requirement or capability need in the CBDP? Assess ACTD Concept Assess technical maturityAssess Risks Is there a supporting acquisition strategy or program in which to transition the ACTD technology?

24. CBRN Unmanned Ground Reconnaissance (CUGR) ACTD

25. We are collaborating and cooperating with others. International Dept of Health and Human Services Multi and Bilateral Agreements rPA Anthrax Vaccine S&T Team BioNet Unconventional Pathogen Countermeasures Dept of Homeland Security DARPA

26. Bottom line • S&T is an integral member of the CBDP team • Building the S&T team • Full community involvement is essential We must get quality products to our warfighters - - - quickly !
