THE PEACETIME USE OF THE

ARMED MARITIME SERV1CES TO SERVE SOCIETY

PAGE DETERMINED TO BE UNCLASSIFIED Reviewed by DON/ AA DRMD · JAW EO 13526, Section 3.5 Date: LJAN 0 5 2018

"THE PEACETIME USE OF THE NAVIES TO SERVE THE SOCIETY AND

THE POSSIBILITIES TO DEVELOP AND IMPROVE THESE ACTIVITIES"

1. INTRODUCTION

In their ever-expanding use of the earth's oceans and its resources, the nations of the world establish governmental institutions to regulate and facilitate their maritime

activities. Many countries call on their Navies to carry out these functions. Others rely on a separate Coast Guard, while still others utilize both types of organizations simultaneous!: In the United States, both the Navy and the Coast Guard have had responsibility for peacetime service to the nation and its citizens and for the extension of these services into international waters and to other nations. For the U.S Navy, a part of the U.S. Department of Defense, such services are clearly a colJa\ eral function; the primary mission is, of course, to conduct prompt and sustained combat operations at sea, if required, in defense of the nation and its interests. For ~he 0.S. ~oast Guard, a multi-mission service and part of

t~e U.S. Department of Transportation, peacetime service to

~Qci~ty is central. Consequently, this paper cannot deal only ~ith the responsibilities of the U.S. Navy, but must also

discuss in some detail the activities of the U.S. Coast Guard.

The independent yet interdependent and mutually supportive

/ ~oles of the two service are not unique to the United States, ~ ~nd representatives of other nations will note much that may

oe similar to their own organizations for peacetime maritime service to society.

2

The use of these armed maritime services to serve society

during peacetime can be thought of as falling into two types

of activities: those activities carried out by the operating

forces of the se~v~ces, either as primary or collateral

functions; and those which involve the utilization of support

forces and organizations of the services by civilians as well

as by the military elements for which they are primarily

maintained. In the first category are such activities as

maritime safety, law enforcement, search and rescue, civic

action and disaster relief, icebreaking and other ice

operations, and environmental and pollution control. In the

second category fall the training of civilians in common

skill areas at naval schools, the use by civilian mariners

of naval communications and navigation programs, the use of

naval oceanographic and atmospheric data and facilities, and

the civilian application of military technological research

and development. Naval programs in search and rescue and in

environment and pollution control are covered in some detail

in the companion to this paper, and the role of the Navy in

the underwater environment was explored at length at the

preceding Seapower Symposium in Stockholm. Therefore, while

their most important aspects will be highlighted here, these

topics will not be central to this discussion. Rather, this

paper concentrates on those other, perhaps lesser known,

areas where the U.S. Navy and U.S. Coast Guard can and do

make contributions to peacetime maritime activities.

2. USE OF THE OPERATING FORCES: SAFETY

Safety on the water is a concern of us all, both on our domest

wat erways and in international waters. The United States'

~esporisibility for ensuring maritime safety lies largely with

the U.S. Coast Guard. One of the Coast Guard's key activities

in t~i~ regard is its boating safety program. This program

endeavours to reduce the risk of loss of life, personal injury

and property damage associated with the use of recreational

noats, thereby providing small boat sailors maximum safe use

o~ the fea and the waterways of the United States. The program

3

establishes requirements for safe loading and powering,

flotation for boats, and fuel, electrical, and ventilation system standards. While responsibilities for construction standards rest with manufacturers, the Coast Guard . inspects

craft to ensure conipliance. The Coast Guard also conducts

and sponsors boating safety courses for the public, an additional effective means of reducing boating accidents and

fatalities .

In spite of the construction standards, the availability of information on safety equipment standards, and safe boating courses, some boaters nevertheless operate their craft in an unsafe manner. For these transgressors, strict enforcement of safety laws and regulations is a necessity, and this is the Coast Guard's responsibility. On waters of the United States

where both Federal and State authorities have jurisdiction, State or local authorities enforce the safety requirements.

The technical developments in the boating safety field have until recently emphasized engineering-related problems, such

as fire and explosion avoidance; shock hazard; capsizing and

swamping; construction design; materials deficiencies; and speed and direction control. While this emphasis continues,

research into human factors is being conducted to learn what causes boaters to act and react as they do. Initial findings

indicate that stress caused by noise fatique may be a significant contributor to boating accidents. Research efforts on fatique and on the reduced effectiveness of boaters' responses due to noise are continuing.

Additional elements of U.S. Coast Guard maritime safety programs include the vessel traffic systems in selected U.S. ports and administration of the Rules of the Road and Pilot Ru!~s. Vessel traffic systems are now operational in Puget. ,,_ Sound; San Francisco; Prince William Sound, Alaska; Galveston-

- Hous~on; and New Orleans. The New York vessel traffic system is scheduled to become operational in July 1978. Technical efforts currently planned under the general h~ading of "Yesspl Traffic _ Management Technology" deal with func t ional t-raffic

management development; functional design information; applied traffic management; human factors in management; system

effectiveness parameters; support equipment; surveillance and detection techniques; information data processing; and

communications tec~~iques.

2.1. LAW ENFORCEMENT

Related to the improvement of maritime safety through better

traffic management and education are the programs of maritime

law enforcement. Here again the U.S. Coast Guard has primary

responsibility in U.S. waters, through its port safety and

security program and its enforcement of personnel standards on U.S. commercial vessels. This latter function, of course,

is of direct benefit to the international community in that

it ensures high standards on U.S. vessels wherever they sail.

The objective of the Coast Guard port safety and security program is to safeguard the nation's ports, waterways,

waterfront facilities, and vessels, as well as persons and

property in the vicinity of ports, from either accidental or

intentional destruction, damage or injury. Fifty-four "Captain

of the Port" offices in the United States carry out both port

safety and marine environmental protection programs in their

areas of responsibility by boarding and inspecting vessels

carrying dangerous cargoes, monitoring cargo transfers,

providing vessel traffic services, inspecting waterfront

facilities, and conducting law enforcement operations in

support of other agencies.

The enforcement of personnel standards (a part of the Coast

Guard commercial vessel safety Program) is accomplished by testing the knowledge, experience, and skills of persons

employed aboard United States commercial vessels. Compliance is assured by issuing merchant mariner's documents to seamen

who meet required standards. The documents identify the mariner and his special qualifications. Officers' licenses are issued to those who successfully demonstrate their ability to_ meet higher, more stringent standards. Written examinations are given to determine if a person is qualified to obtain one

s

of these licenses, and periodic renewai is required to insure

that an officer's qualifications are kept current. Acts of misconduct, incompetence or negligence can lead to the

- suspension or revocation of a seaman's document or an

officer's license. .·

The U.S Coast Guard is also responsible for the enforcement

bf statutes, regulations, and international agreements

governing activities in the navigable waters of the United

States and on the high seas. The laws to be enforced deal

with quarantine and neutrality, fish and game protection,

transportation of narcotics, illegal immigration, pollution,

murder, kidnapping, robbery, and numerous other criminal

offenses. The Coast Guard uses aircraft, ships, and boat

patrols to detect, survey, and enforce applicable United

States laws and treaties.

The United States exercises fishery management authority over

a 200-mile fishery conservation zone which went into effect

on 1 March 1977. Under the fishery management scheme,

Governing International Fisheries Agreements and individual

ship permits are required prior to the commencement of fishing

in this zone. Presently the U.S. is a party of eleven

Governing International Fisheries Agreements.

Besides conducting gishery enforcement patrols, the Coast

Guard conducts general law enforcement patrols for preventing, detecting and suppressing illegal acts such as narcotics · smuggling, entry of illegal aliens, and violation of neutrality

laws. General law enforcement patrols are conducted both independently and in conjunction with the Drug Enforcement

· Agency, the Customs Service, and other United States law . ·-enforcement agencies. These operations have resulted in the

increasing number of vessels along with their

Coast Guard's ~urrent operation of the hydrofoil FLAGSTAFF, obtai~ed from the U.S. Navy, seeks the potential for improving the . Coast Guard's cost effectiveness through operating such

l .

t

craft. Other research and development efforts use multi-purpose

Coast Guard resources to tie the various aspects of detection

together into an overall system to satisfy all Coast Guard

programs. Technic~l ~evelopments now being examined includ~ _ ..

satellites, sensor aircraft, improved cameras, lighter-than-air

vehicles, infrared radars and night vision goggles, ship sonar

equipment, and tracking systems.

2.2. SEARCH AND RESCUE

The role of the U.S. Navy and U.S. Coast Guard in rescue

operations in international waters is the subject of the

companion paper to this. Nevertheless, it should be briefly

mentioned here that, in this area above all others, the armed

maritime services of nations have much to contribute to the

peacetime well-being of world society. The U.S. National

Search and Rescue Plan; the search and rescue programs of

the Navy, Coast Guard and other U.S. governmental organization~

and the everyday implementation of these throughout the world

are of great benefit to seafarers. All maritime nations

shoulder this burden, of course, but the wide-ranging forces

of the U.S. Navy and the U.S. Coast Guard give them a global

reach which enables them to respond to requests for assistance

on virtually all the world's sealanes.

2.3. DISASTER RELIEF

Like search and rescue operations, disaster relief and civic action activities are also carried out by the U.S. Navy and Coast Guard, both · domestically and throughout the world.

t~lthougp disaster ~elief ;s f~r them a collateral function, these organizations ~re tharg~d ~ith rendering all feasible

support to local ang ~tate authorities during disasters

occurring in the United States and its territories, with

carrying out s~ch international disaster relief operations

as may be directed by higher authority, and with taking prompt

and immediate action in any event to conduct relief operations

anywhere when time is of the essence and humanitarian

,. ' .

• -·""~.-

7

considerations so require. Their high state of readiness and

tradition of public service make the U.S. armed maritime services well equipped to carry out these tasks. United

States Navy units ~r~ .. normally deployed throughout United · States waters and other parts of the world. In emergency

situations requiring immediate action many of these units can

quickly leave routine functions to aid in disaster relief.

Many of the equipment items the Navy possesses for support

of military operations can be readily adapted for relief

purposes: aircraft, helicopters and tactical engineering

equipment are obvious examples. Even more important are those

supplies stocked to meet the immediate physical needs of

military personnel: food, sleeping equipment, cooking utensils

and water-purification items. Most of these items are ready

for rapid issue and use; many of them are specifically designed

for use in difficult environmental conditions similar to

situations found in disaster areas. Equally important, the

United States Navy can quickly provide the trained and dedicated

manpower necessary to utilize the available equipment and

material.

Specialized teams of medical, salvage, communications,

sanitation and engineering personnel can be made available for deployment into a disaster area. The Naval Mobile Construction

Battalions (the "Seabees") possess equipment and skilled personnel especially useful in conducting emergency operations.

In addition, the Seabees maintain disaster recovery training

departments that provide disaster relief training to other Federal and local agencies.

The Coast Guard's participation in disaster relief operations

is primarily an extension of its search and rescue activities. Of palrticular a·dvantage to the populace is the fact that Coast Guard · search and rescue facilities are capable of responding immediately due to their normal high readiness posture. Because

is often ~he case that Coast Guard facilities immediate United States rescue force during the

<•

• ( > \. .. :.;.·

8

early stages of a disaster until the more numerous forces of the U.S. Navy or other elements can be mobilized. When this occurs, Coast Guard facilities usually return to their normal search and rescue posture .

. . ··· The U.S. Navy's overseas civic action, People-to-People, -and foreign disaster relief programs complement its domestic disaster relief programs. The civic action program uses U.S.

Navy personnel to help foreign navies help themselves through

assistance in mission-related projects. These have included Seabee Mobile Training Teams; Naval Inshore Warfare Teams expert in aquatic skills, demolition and waterway improvements medical specialist advisors; civil engineering advisors; small

craft specialists; and oceanographic experts. As examples of

this type of work, in 1972 and 1973 Underwater Demolition Tearr

("Frogmen") completed two projects important to the economic

in the Western Hemisphere .

The People-to-People program utilizes the mobility and lift capacity of U.S. Navy units to ship donated supplies to areas in need, if space is available. Examples are the 1973 transportation by U.S. Navy vessels of three fire engines donated by the city of Los Angeles to Nicaragua, following the devastating earthquake there, and similar recent ship visits to Pakistan and Indonesia. Overseas disaster relief operations have traditionally been a part of the U.S. Navy's activities. In 1973, in Naples, Italy, U.S. Navy medics from the Sixth Fleet, together with Navy medical personnel stationed in Naples, conducted mass innoculations and stemmed a cholera epidemic that was raging in that city. Through their efforts, over 200,000 people were immunized against the deadly

9

bacteria. Other Navy medical teams have provided disaster

relief to earthquake victims in Peru, Nicaragua, Mexico, and

Morocco, and to flood victims in the Philippines, Tunisia and

Pakistan. They have also trained medical technicians and ~ ' ·.

established medical facilities in developing nations.

In early 1975, crewmen from USS ENTERPRISE (a nuclear­

powered aircraft carrier) and USS CAMDEN (a fast combat

support ship) provided assistance to the island nation of

Mauritius after that country was devastated by a cyclone.

The sailors performed a myriad of tasks, from donating blood

to clearing fallen trees from highways and to restoring

electric power and airport communications. Also, in 1976,

the U.S. Navy conducted an integrated civic action, People­

to-People, and disaster relief operation when it sealifted

a battalion of U.S. Army engineers to aid in post-earthquake

road repair in Guatemala, while at the same time carrying

40,000 pounds of relief supplies and subsequently using Seabee teams to train Guatemalans in the ssembly of

prefabricated metal buildings.

The last area in which the operating forces of the maritime

services directly assist civilian society is in environmental

improvement, control, and assistance programs. Many of these are more properly discussed in the other Forum as essential

to the prevention of disasters at sea, but ice operations,

a U.S. Coast Guard function, merit special mention here. They

provide the capability for meeting the United States'

icebreaking requirements in polar and domestic waters. The program supports logistic resupply efforts and scientific

research in the polar regions, facilitates marine commerce ip the Great Lakes and other iceinfested waters, and provides

icebreaking capabilities to relieve flooding of ice-choked rivers.

3. USE OF SUPPORTING RESOURCES

The preceding paragraphs briefly discuss how Navy and ~oast -Guard operating forces of the United States actively serve society, both at home and overseas. But maritime services have much to offer civilian society besides capitalizing on the readiness and mobility of operating forces. The resources which support these forces can also be employed to assist

the world's seafarers. PAGE DETERMINF.D TO BE UNCLASSIFIED Reviewed by DON/AA DRMD

3.1. TRAINING JAW EO 13526, Section 3.5 Date: dAN 0 5 2018

In opening up their training programs, for example, Navies

can do much to share their expertise with non-military persons,

without degrading their basic national defense responsibilities. As an example, U.S. Navy firefighting schools have long been an excellent source of training for civilian firefighters. Training in firefighting is made available upon request to civilian fire departments, representatives of U.S. maritime and commercial firms, and employees of cities or states. In

a related program, in mid-1975 the Ohio State University began a project examining the possible utilization of U.S.

Defense Department curriculum materials in vocational education. The purpose of the project has been to develop a

system for making military instructional materials available to civilian education programs. The project has involved identification and selection of civilian-related military

_materials, a survey of schools which have used military · ~aterials, and design of a system to make these materials

~· ayailable to civilian schools. The Navy recognizes the value ' .• ·t9 be derived by the nation from civilian adoption and

\ic;jipiques, and has cooperated closely in this project.

on 500 KHz, the international distress frequency. Distress

messages received are answered on 2182 KHz. Information is

then relayed ashore to U.S. communications stations _ by the quickest means available. In the field of navigation, the

,/ , .•

worldwide network ~f systems, also used extensively by the commercial sector, is largely maintained by the U.S. Coast

Guard. The Coast Guard has two aids-to-navigation programs,

involving short-range and radio-navigational aids. The short-range aids program facilitates the safe and expeditious passage of marine traffic in coastal areas, inland waterways,

and harbors, in order to enhance their utility for commercial,

recreational, public, and private users. The radio-navigational aids program assists the safe and expeditious passage of traffic worldwide by providing a continuous, accurate, all­weather position-fixing capability.

These programs provide more than 47,000 fixed and floating marks, radio beacons, and the LORAN-A, LORAN-C, and relatively new OMEGA systems, to assist the mariner. LORAN-C is a long­range low frequency system which is being installed to serve

all coastal zones of the United States and which will in time replace LORAN-A. It covers between 800 and 1200 nautical miles. OMEGA, a very low frequency system, does not have the accuracy

needed in the coastal zone, but does have the advantage that it can provide world-wide service with only 8 transmitting

stations, and is therefore valuable for general navigation on and over the high seas. Its range is between 5000 and 8000 nautical miles.

Recent technical developments in the field of navigation

include automation of formerly manned lighthouses, deployment of large navigation buoys 40 feet in diameter to replace light­

, ' ships and their crews; fast new water buoys which maintain

correct vertical position in swift rivers more e~slli; new class of fast aids-to-navigation boats ~hich \ re

a LORAN-C receiver capable of yielding 25-foot accuracy in

a waterway. Additionally, the U.S. Navy operates the Navy

Navigation Satellite System, known variously as NNSS or

TRANSIT. TRANSIT employs navigation satellites operating in

circular polar orb1ts to provide position information ev~ry two hours and, like LORAN-C and OMEGA, is used commercially.

3.3. ENVIRONMENTAL PROGRAMS .

The U.S. Navy oceanographic support programs and their

applications in the civilian world were discussed at length

at Stockholm three years ago and therefore do not need

repeating here. The Coast Guard's marine science activities

program should, however, be mentioned here as a supporting

pr og r am with international civilian relevance. This program

emphasizes applied oceanography in support of other Coast

Guard programs and missions and, where appropriate, in support

of other United States agencies and scientific organizations.

Activities include the International Ice Patrol; preparation

of sea surface current charts to provide operational support

for the Coast Guard search and rescue and marine environmental

protection programs; cooperation with the U.S. Weather Service

in coastal and high seas meteorological data collection; and

support for the U.S. National Oceanic and Atmospheric

Administration Data Buoy Office in the development of deep

ocean environmental buoys.

Currently there are a number of areas where the Navy is making significant contributions to research and the growth of technology, and which are of interest to all nations

represented at th~s _yymposium. Many have already been mentioned . In addition, several research and development projects have been undertaken for the purpose of improving the means by which environmental factors are sensed and predictions

generated and distributed. These projects are be~ng pursued in coordination or consultation with other elements of the

federal government. They comprise work related to satellites designed to sense environmental factors, and systems to automate the processing and dissemination of the predictions

based on the collected data. The products of these efforts are expected to contribute directly and significantly to the

benefit of the general populace of the world.

The Navy has long been in the forefront of ocean engineering research and development efforts which will lead to the ability of mankind to explore, perform work, and appropriately exploit the vast riches of the sea and the seafloor. These efforts

range from the development of modern integrated systems to support operations of divers from surface platforms down to approximately 140 meters to the development of a system to

recover or salvage objects from far greater depths. The products of these efforts are expected to improve the safety and effectiveness of all men-in-the-sea operations.

4. CONCLUSION

This has been a brief description of the role of the U.S. Navy

and Coast Guard in the peacetime service of society. As can be seen, both services have had much to offer to the civilian community, both domestic and international, and both will continue to be of assistance and support as long as man works

_. and enjoys himself upon the world's waters. Whether through .its operating forces or its supporting resources, a Navy can contribute a great deal to the well being of society without detracting from its primary tasks of national defense, and thereby help ensure improved world prosperfty and peace.

"THE PARTICIPATION.OF THE NAVIES IN RESCUE OPERATIONS AND CATASTROPHE FIGHTING IN INTERNATIONAL WATERS AND THE DEVELOPMENT OF THESE OPERATIONS ESPECIALLY IN THE TECHNICAL FIELD"

The history of the ocean is filled with courageous acts of mariners assisting those in distress at sea. The fact that

sailors must be willing, able, and duty bound to render aid to those in distress at sea has long been recognized by the seagoing nations of the world.

The Convention With Respect to Assistance and Salvage at Sea,

signed at Brussels in 1910, contains the provision that, "Every master is bound, so far as he can do so without serious danger to his vessel, her crew and passengers, to render assistance to everybody, even though an enemy, found at sea in danger of being lost". There are very few Captains or

Masters who have not honored the provisions of the Brussels Convention.

United States Navy regulations, which are issued by the

Secretary of the Navy with the approval of the President of the United States, demand that Commanding Officers render assistance to those in distress. Such assistance has been rendered by U.S. Navy units since the earliest years of the Republic. The Standard Organization of every U.S. Navy unit contains required rescue and assistance bills, which gives the unit the organizational capacity to render prompt and effective aid to those in distress, whether it be due to a minor accident at sea or a disaster.

_ Article 12 of the Convention on the High Seas, done in Geneva

in 1958, " ••• requires every coastal state to promote the ~ establishment and maintenance of an adequate and effectiv~

service and where circumstances so require

3

maintain a state of military readiness to serve the

United States in time of war.

The missions and duties carried out by the U.S. Coast Guard

have serv~d the mari~ers of the world and made a sigrtificant

contribution to the security of lives and vessels at sea. -

The U.S. Coast Guard is an organization with over 40 thousand

military and civilian personnel. Their facilities inclu<le

252 ships of various types, over 1900 boats, . 184 aircraft,

and about 800 shore stations. The majority of Coast Guard

facilities carry out multi-missions and serve more than one

of the U.S. Coast Guard's nine major operating programs.

Societies can achieve benefits through having naval forces

with the capability to respond to disasters and rescue

situations associated with the ocean. But jus~ as important,

the society must have the means to prevent accidents and

disasters. The U.S. Coast Guard helps prevent accidents and

disasters, yet is capable of responding to such incidents

when preventive measures fail.

The U.S. Coast Guard employs multipurpose facilities

strategically located along the coasts and inland waterways

of the United States and in some other nations to carry out

duties specified in United .states law. The U.S. Coast Guard

discharges its responsibilities through a series of operating

programs, three of which directly relate to the problem:

rescue operations, catastrophe fighting and accident

prevention.

The first program is ' the Coast Guard Marine Environmental ' -

Protection program. Its ' purpose is to maintain or improve

trye ~uality of the marine environment; to minimize the damage

c~used by pollutants . discharged into the marine environment

by endeavoring to provide efficient, coordinated, and

effective action in rbsponse to the discharges of oil or hazardous substances into the waters ot the coastal area.

-While the scope of this program does not have a directed

PAGE DETERMINFD TO BE UNCLASSIFIED Reviewed by DON/AA DRMD IAW EO 13526, Section 3.5 Date: JAN 0 5 2018

4

international impact, it is worthy of discussion since it most certainly reduces the probability of a catastrophic spill of oil or hazardous substances into international waters or upon the shores of other nations. The Coast Guard

.. •·'

Marine Environment Protection programs' primary emphasis is on preventing pollution and secondarily deals with response to spills.

Prevention is accomplished through promulgation and enforcement of regulations designed to eliminate pollution from vessels and shore facilities; surveillance of ocean

dumping activities; imposition of civil penalties or, where

appropriate, recommending criminal prosecution for discharges of oil or hazardous substances in a harmful quantity; working through international organizations to achieve higher standard

of pollution control for all classes of vessels; and conductin; pollution patrols to detect violations. To aid in detection some Coast Guard aircraft are equipped with a sensor system which detects, identifies and maps oil spills.

While response to pollution incidents involves minimizing damage by oil or other hazardous substances discharged into

or adjacent to United States coastal waters, this U.S. Coast Guard capability has provided assistance to other nations.

In the United States the party responsible for spills usually undertakes removal. Their progress is monitored by the Coast Guard to insure that appropriate action is carried out. If

the responsible party fails to act properly or can not be immediately identified, the U.S. Government may take over and effect removal. In such case the responsible party is liable, with certain exceptions and limitations, for the cost of removal.

Coordinated United States Government response to pollution incidents is provided through the National Oil and Hazardous Substances Pollution Contingency Plan. The "National Contingency Plan" promulgated under the authority of the Federal Water Pollution Control Act Amendments of 1972

c·-·_

5

(PL 92-500) assigns the U.S. Coast Guard (or the Environmental Protection Agency in designated areas) the responsibility for providing United States federal on-scene coordinators for ~pills in U.S. waters.

The Coast Guard's National Strike Force consisting of 56 highly trained personnel on the Atlantic, Gulf, and Pacific

Coasts of the United States assist the on-scene coordinator on major pollution incidents.

The United States "National Contingency Plan" for pollution

control provides for the establishment of a National Response

Team and several Regional Response Teams consisting of representatives from primary and advisory U.S. Federal Agencies . These teams are mobilized at the request of the on-scene coordinator to provide advice and coordinate the mobilization of Federal Agency assets including required specialized equipments and technical expertise unique to

_that agency.

The U.S. Department of Defense is a primary agency and as such has representation on both National and Regional Teams. As a component of the Department of Defense, the U.S. Navy is often called upon to provide both marine salvage and pollution control assets at the request of the Federal on-scene coordinator. An extensive Navy response organization

developed to deal with Navy in-house emergencies is available for mobilization in non-Navy emergencies under the direction of the Federal On-Scene Coordinator.

At the request of the Federal On-Scene Coordinator or the

National Response Team, U.S. Navy assets may be mobilized on a cost reimbursable basis to combat spills. The U.S. Navy has participated in several major Coast Guard (on-scene coordinator) dire~ted pollution control incidents in recent years.

' Recent technical developments in this field include the Oil . Spill ( ingerprinting System which through forensic analysis

provides the oil identification capability to trace the origin

r ·

ce ....... .-· -

~ · -...,._ i .

6

of a mystery spill regardless of the number of ships in an

area, and whether or not they were fueled in the same depot,

and powered by identical oil suppiies. In addition, national

recognition of the oil fingerprinting capabilities apparently . , .'

has served as a deterrent. Other developments are the Hazard

Assessment Computer System and the Chemical Hazard Response

Information System which seeks to combat and minimize the

dangers of the 900 known hazardous chemicals; and refinement

of oil-water separators, oil containment barriers and clean­

up equipment. A fast current oil removal system and a high

speed delivering system for pollution control are among those

items currently being examined.

The second important Coast Guard program in catastrophe

prevention is the Coast Guard Commercial Vessel Safety program.

Its objective is to prevent marine casualties. This is

accomplished through the administration of United States laws,

the development and enforcement of United States standards,

and implementation of international agreements. Two types of

safety standards are established and enforced: (1) those

concerned with material; (2) those concerned with personnel .

The standards are based on information gathered from four

sources; (1) lessons learned through casualty analysis;

(2) trend predictions and forecasts of advancing technology;

(3) United States legislative requirements; and (4) Coast

Guard participation in international organizations and

conferences.

Coast Guard knowledge and experience in Commercial Vessel

Safety is shared internationally through the Intergovernmental

Maritime Consultative Organization (IMCO), the marine section

of the United Nations. Through IMCO the Coast Guard assists

in the development of international standards for the

prev.ention of marine casual ties.

The enforcement of material standards begins with the

plans for proposed vessels and equipm~nt with existing standards. Coast Guard

in distress. The object of this important program is to minimize loss of life, injury, and property damage by rendering assistance to persons and property on, over, and un~er the

high seas and those ~aters subject to the jurisdiction of the United States.

U.S. Coast Guard and U.S. Navy search and rescue operations

are governed by the National Search and Rescue Plan, which integrates all available U.S. Search and Rescue facilities worldwide into a cooperative network. The plan supports the search and rescue responsibilities agreed to by the

contracting states of the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO). This plan, recognizes the statutory

authority of the U.S. Coast Guard to be responsible for developing, establishing, maintaining, and operating rescue facilities, as well as for safety inspection of merchant vessels and investigation of marine casualties. The U.S. Navy, like other U.S. military organizations, provide search and rescue facilities in support of its own operations, and to

meet civil needs when these needs do not interfere with its

military mission.

The benefits derived by a society from this program are

considerable. In a typical year, the U.S. Coast Guard provides

assistance resulting in savings of property valued at more than 2.8 billion dollars. Of even greater importance, the Coast Guard saved over 4600 lives, assisted over 160,000 other persons in danger in the maritime environment, and

responded to 71,000 calls for help in 1977.

Most Coast Guard facilities, whether they are ships, aircraft, boats, or shore stations, are on standby to respond to calls for a~sistance 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. In addition to having Search and Rescue responsibility in United States -coastal regions, the Coast Guard's responsibility covers ~s aoes the U.S. Navy's vast maritime areas. ~-

District Commander has an operational center functions as a Rescue Coordination Center but

(:•

(::

t·, ... ·

i ·:. \,_ ,

9

also serves as a command and control center for all Coast

Gua~d mission areas. In addition to the primary Coast Guard resources, Rescue Coordination Centers maintain clos~ liaison with the U:S. Navy~ other U.S. national, and international

_ .. agencies. Resources from these agencies and international -assistance have been used on many occasions to augment Coast Guard Search and Rescue efforts. Coast Guird search and rescue

efforts are also assisted by other military "forces of opportunity." The U.S. Navy and Air Force frequently join the Coast Guard in these activities, particularly when the scene of the casualty is far from United States shores. In such

cases because of the limited number of ships and aircraft

whi~h the Coast Guard can deploy, the help of the U.S. Navy

and V.S. Air Force is essential to provide adequate coverage of the area involved. In those areas remote fr0m the United

Sta~es where U.S. military forces have primary search and ' rescue responsibilities, the U.S. Navy plays a leading role.

The teamwork that is exhibited in these joint efforts is out­

standing. Forces of other nations occasionally team up with the U.S. Coast Guard and U.S. Navy on search and rescue cases.

In the Western Hemisphere the U.S. Coast Guard often joins forces with Canada,. Mexico, the Bahamas and other nations

in the Caribbean. The splendid spirit of cooperation and the high degree of professionalism that is exhibited in these cases is always impressive.

Another example of international cooperation is the Automated

Mutual Assistance Vessel gescue System, commonly referred to as AMVER. Merchant vessels of all nation are encouraged to participate in the vol~ntary program, by~ providing sailing

plans upon departure from port and periodic position reports en route to cooperating government and commercial radio stations throughout the world. These radio stations relay messages to the Coast Guard's AMVER center in New York City, ,

· where they are combined with other vessel search and rescue data on file, and entered into a compute~. When a recognized Rescue Center of any nation learns . of an emergency at sea,

•it {~encouraged to obtain a computer-predicted list~ng of

3~

10

ships in the vicinity of the emergency to see which, if any, might be able to provide help. Valuable search and rescue data, such as each ship's radio watch schedule, rescue equipment aboard, and whether there is a doctor onboard is kept on file in the'-'computer and is also printed for each

ship listed. The location of an individual vessel, if participating, may also be obtained by rescue authorities if

her safety is in question. Predicted vessel locations are disclosed only for reasops related to maritime safety.

The U.S. National Search and Rescue School located at

Governors Island, New York is jointly staffed by the U.S. Coast Guard and Air Force. The basic four week course has

been attended by hundreds of Coast Guard personnel; students from the U.S. Navy, U.S. Air Force, and other U.S. agencies;

and by students from 41 nations. The knowledge gained by both

student and instructor is important to the overall international success of the Search and Rescue System for it is "training" that provides the cohesion which insures the necessary standardization, cooperation and awareness that a society must strive for if it is to have an effective search and rescue system.

Technical advances in the Search and Rescue field have brought

about the development of a prototype 30-foot, 340-horsepower surf rescue boat. The self-righting, 10,000 pound boat is designed to withstand a 10 foot plunging surf and travel at speeds up _ to 25 knots. It will soon be tested off the northwest coast of the United States. During 1977, planning was begun for a space program which will use satellites to monitor emergency locator transmitters.

Other technical projects in various states of development are wi~e area illumination lights and sensors which will increase thi capability for detecting a live person in the water during

the vacuum grip towing system; the Computer Planning system which uses wind, sea, current, along with a simulation technique to supply

vital to search efforts as those efforts are

11

occurring; and the Search and Rescue Simulation model where

historical Search and Rescue cases are put through the system

to analyze search and rescue allocation problems.

The preceding catalo'gue of programs emphasizes the degree to which the maritime services' efforts can be directed toward

serving a society's interests upon the seas. In some nations

these functions are assigned to a branch of the Navy. In

others, the Coast Guard function is separate. The people of

the United States are accustomed to the Coast Guard being an independent service closely associated with the U.S. Navy.

From the United States viewpoint, there are definite

advantages in an independent Coast Guard. First, the Coast

Guard is budgeted separately from the Navy. A separate budget

enables it to plan facilities and design equipment for its

basic peacetime functions, including Search and Rescue. While

mindful of the Coast Guard's role as an adjunct to the Navy

in time of war, it can plan primarily for the peacetime

missions which Coast Guard personnel and equipment will

perform. Secondly, because the Coast Guard performs a number

of distinct missions, the net costs of any one mission are

minimal. This is described as a "multimission" approach. For

example, a Coast Guard helicopter that is flying a

surveillance mission inspecting fishing vessels can be

diverted instantly to a se~rch and rescue case. Because the

Coast Guard is a small organization, many of its personnel

are cross-trained to perform a number of functions. A third

advantage in an independent status is that the Coast Guard

can function as a law enforcement agency without involving military officers in civilian affairs. By law, the U.S. Coast

Guard is at all times one of our nation's armed forces. Yet

because of its many peacetime duties, its profile is that of

a humanitarian marine police force. United States citizens,

li~e those of many riations of the world, are leery of

military encroachment in the civilian domain. Yet a Coast Guard can inspect merchant vessels, survey docks, board

f~sping vessels, and perform many other law enforcement tasks without sparking the kind of resentment that might come from

,;:

othef0 armed forces doing the same job.

~ 12

Nearly all of the technical information produced in operating

Coast Guard programs is available in published documents or

in information banks open to the public. The U.S. ~avy's

relationship with tpe U.S. Coast Guard is strong and enduring . . -Technical developments in rescue operations and catastrophe

fighting by both Services is openly transferred to other

U.S. agencies and international forums.

It is no simple matter to effect transfers of rescue and

disaster fighting technology and organization to the

satisfaction of everyone seeking its use. Delays are caused

by developers evaluating results and the modification of

languages to more effectively communicate. One of the greatest

obstacles may be the under-utilization of existing

communications channels.

There can be effective communication when societies recognize

the need to be more responsive to maritime accidents and

disasters and when the need is supported by prevention and

response objectives comprehensive enough to embrace real

and widespread human aspiration. There exist great

opportunities for proventing maritime disasters and accidents

and for improving rescue operations and disaster fighting in

international waters. In the United States, the most serious

consideration is given to the need of sharing accomplishments

with all performers in the fields of disaster prevention,

rescue, and disaster fighting. The U.S. Navy and the U.S.

Coast Guard will continue to respond to maritime casualties

and to transfer preventive measures and their rescue and

disaster fighting developments to those who request and

would benefit from them.

PROPOSAL FOR RECOMMENDATION

Considering that the Council of Delegates of the VIII Inter-Arr.eric:an Naval Conference approved a recom­mendation that the existing Secretariats of all Special­ized Inter-F_-rneri.car• Naval Conferences submit to the Inter-1'..merican Naval Conference Secreta.ria t, within one year, ·all of the Recorr~endations in effect from those Conferences, to permit evaluation of the results of such Specialized Conferences:

There.exists a unanimous consensus that the establish­ment of Perrnan~nt Secretariats for Specialized Conferences with a permanent character and s.i.te, should be deferred for the time being, since to fully justify their creation, it is necessary to effectively ev<.luate_ the results of the different Specialized Conferences.

To this end, the SecrEtariats of the Specialized IANCs will formulate, within one year, the organizational regulations specifying the objectives, tasks, and function­al guide s governing their respective activities. For this purpose, the draft "Statutes for Specialized Inter-Ameri­can Conferences of Directors of Materialn presented by the Delegate cf Peru dur~ng the present Conference, may b~ used as a reference.
