Chapter II - Domestic CBRN CM (4) Considerations: (D) Organizing Considerations: (4) Technical Augmentation and Liaison: CBRN incidents entail operational and force health protection risks. The affected community and federal partners in the response may need technical advice and situational awareness in effects mitigation. (a) Defense Threat Reduction Agency: DTRA provides planning support through deployable teams and real-time technical reachback. This includes expertise in CBRN incident modeling and potential consequences of CBRN incidents, as well as consequence management advisory teams (CMATs) to assist in all phases of CBRN incidents. (b) US Army Medical Research Institute of Infectious Diseases: The USAMRIID representative provides expertise in epidemiology and biological warfare defense. (c) Centers for Disease Control and Prevention: The CDC expert serves as the on-staff augmentation for national level EP and response, the Laboratory Response Network, and Public Health emergency response, and has expertise on the Strategic National Stockpile. (d) 20th Support Command (CBRNE): The 20th Support Command is subordinate to US Army FORSCOM. Its representatives are CBRNE subject matter experts, can serve as liaison to the CJTF, and are knowledgeable of the command's capabilities and units. (e) US Army Medical Research Institute of Chemical Defense: The USAMRICD representative provides an expert in the medical management of chemical casualties. (f) Air Force Technical Applications Center: This center operates and maintains a global network of sensors called the United States Atomic Energy Detection System (USAEDS). Once the USAEDS senses a disturbance underground, underwater, in the atmosphere, or in space, the incident is analyzed for nuclear identification, and findings are reported to SecDef and the President through Headquarters US Air Force. (g) Armed Forces Radiobiology Research Institute (AFRRI): The AFRRI representative provides an expertise in radiological and nuclear warfare defense, response, and treatment for radiological/nuclear casualties.
