• SENSITIVE SECURITY INFORMATION PART VIII-NATIONAL.PRIORITIES IDENTIFY ONE NATIONAL PRIORITY THIS INVESTMENT MOST CLOSELY SUPPORTS: Enhancing Maritime Domain Awareness DESCRIBE HOW,AND THE EXTENT THIS INVESTMENT JUSTIFICATION MEETS ONE OR MORE OF THE NATIONAL PRIORITIES. THE FOLLOWING MUST BE INCLUDED: •HOW THIS INVESTMENT ADDRESSES VULNERABILITIES IDENTIFIED WITHIN AN AREA MARITIME SECURITY PLAN, FACILITY SECURITY PLAN,VESSEL SECURITY PLAN,OR OTHER IDENTIFIED PLAN(S). This project will address several of the national priorities: Protection of soft targets and crowded places. With the continued development of the Port of Everett there will be an increase in the number of people in or around the port.As part of the development there will be venues for larger gatherings such as markets,concert and other events.With the ability of this project to provide real time video coverage of large areas that lack camera infrastructure.We would be able to provide a significant enhancement of the situational awareness leading to better security.This increased situational awareness would increase our ability to detect and prevent a threat to one of the large gatherings in the area of the port. If there was an emergency, natural or man-made,during an event this system would allow a better assessment of damage infrastructure and victims to provide better real time information to the incident commander to allow for the best possible response.This system could also be deployed to the area of the Mukilteo Ferry docks or the new passenger terminal at Pain Field in the event of an emergency.One of the largest gathering of people that we have in the city is the Boeing Production Facility,where over 30,000 employees work.This system would allow us an enhanced ability to respond to an active threat in this vital national infrastructure. Addressing Emerging threats—WMD/UAS The Everett Police Department is part of the Department of Nuclear Detection Small Boat Program.This project will allow us to locate,identify, and interdict small boats that are a potential threat.With the ability to transport this system anywhere in the region it could provide wide area video coverage to assist in the locating of vessels that are transporting hazardous material. If,through the use of the radiation equipment that we currently are using,a potential radiation threat is located this system will allow for remote real time video of the area to provide better information to the incident commander to coordinate the most effective response.This system could also be used to locate and coordinate the arrest of suspect involved in the illegal transportation of nuclear material,as well as provide documentation to assist with the investigation after an incident. With the enhanced camera system that the UAS will be fitted with,combined with the ability to provide mobile video coverage over a larger area,this project will be a useful tool in detecting malicious drones in the area of the port and other critical infrastructure.With the ability to identify and track these potential threatening drones,this system would provide an enhanced level of security at the port and large gatherings. Currently we do not have the capability to track malicious drones other then through ground observations.This system could also be used to locate the operators of these potentially hazardous drones,mitigating further threats. Planning With the combination of the small unmanned aerial system with a standard computer program we would be able to provide scale 3-d diagrams of critical areas around the port in a short amount of time.These diagrams could be used in development of response plans for large gatherings,critical infrastructure,or in a response to any updated threat information.These diagrams could also be used in the risk and disaster resilience planning. Training As a part of this project there will be a 40-hour class that will focus on the Federal Aviation Administration part 107 remote pilot certification, constitutional imitations of the use of small unmanned aircraft, and the operation of small unmanned aircraft systems.This training will be open to other agencies throughout the region.This training will ensure the effective use of small unmanned aircraft as well as provide a foundation for the operational coordination of multiple agencies throughout the region of small unmanned aircraft through joint training.
