Immediate Response Authority
Immediate Response Authority (IRA): A Federal military commander’s authority temporarily
to employ resources under their control, subject to any supplemental direction provided by
higher headquarters, and provide those resources to save lives, prevent human suffering,
or mitigate great property damage in response to a request for assistance from a civil
authority, under imminently serious conditions when time does not permit approval
from a higher authority within the United States. Immediate response authority does not
permit actions that would subject civilians to the use of military power that is regulatory,
prescriptive, proscriptive, or compulsory. (DoDD 3025.18)
Commander: For DSCA Immediate Response Authority purposes is limited to only those
Commanders formally appointed in writing IAW AR 600-8-20 AND serving in a Command
Billet.
What constitutes a “civil authority”? “Those elected and appointed officers and employees
who constitute the government of the United States, the governments of the 50 states, the
District of Columbia, the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico, United States territories, and political
subdivisions thereof” (Joint Publication 1-02)

Concept of Operations
In the event of a split state strike, the
DCO for RGN VI, along with the
majority of DCE VI, would deploy
to BTR and conduct coordination
with the state of LA and FEMA.
The DCO for RGN X, along with
DCE X, would deploy to Austin
and conduct coordination with the
state of TX and FEMA. The RSV
DCO will coordinate all AE
operations in TX and LA (if
required). The RSV DCO would be
prepared to assist in Austin until
the arrival of the RGN X DCO.
Mission
DCE VI deploys to TX and
LA to conduct C2 IOT

Katrina – Identified need for major improvements in DOD Regional and State pre-
event planning, coordination and preparation with Federal Partners for response to
disasters and catastrophes in the homeland.
One initiative was establishing permanent active-duty Army teams within the ten
Federal Emergency Management Agency regions across the United States.
DCEs are DoD’s forward presence in all 10 FEMA Regions; Tasked with
maintaining situational awareness; interagency planning; building relationships of
trust with State and Federal partners
Defense Coordinating Elements (DCEs) plan for & coordinate DOD capabilities
and requests for DOD assistance in support of a variety of events, including
National Special Security Events, domestic emergencies and other domestic
activities. Integrate DoD support plans in FEMA All Hazards Plans
The DCE's are DOD's first responders in planning for and responding to events to
save lives and protect the American people and their way of life.
Super Storm Sandy showed need for capable coordinated response from DOD to
assist the local, state and federal responders in a disaster.
Background
Defense Coordinating Element (DCE)
UNCLASSIFIED
UNCLASSIFIEDNC JFLCC / USARNORTH 35
• A Dual Status Commander (DSC) is a command and control option
“Usual and customary command and control arrangement”
When Federal and State military forces are employed simultaneously in support of
civil authorities
Governor and SecDef mutually agree that such establishment is necessary and
proper
• DSC is normally a National Guard GO
Must have Title 10 orders from COCOM and State commission
Two separate staff elements to help DSC ensure orders remain
separate/distinct
Joint Task Force – State (JTF-State) manned by T32 or SAD (baseline is 17
personnel)
Joint Support Force – Staff Element (JSF-SE) manned by T10
The Dual-Status Commander
The goal of the DSC concept is to improve unity of effort
and response to domestic emergency/disaster response operations
