**Expressions of Interest (EOI) for**
**Chemical Defense Demonstration Projects** 

**AGENCY :**  Office of Health Affairs, DHS.

**ACTION :**  Notice of Expression of Interest.

**SUMMARY :**  The Chemical Defense Program (CDP), under the Department of Homeland Security Office of Health Affairs (OHA), is seeking Expressions of Interest (EOI) from state, local, tribal, and territorial (SLTT) government agencies to participate in a chemical defense demonstration project relative to a specific venue (e.g., indoor sports stadium, outdoor port facility, convention center). These projects will assist communities in enhancing their preparedness to respond effectively and quickly to a catastrophic chemical event. Using the DHS Form 10088 (9/12) posted on https://www.dhs.gov/publication/eoi-form-cdpdemonstration-project, interested SLTT governmental agencies must submit the completed and signed form to the DHS

OHA CDP.

**DATES :**  Submit the completed and signed DHS Form 10088 (9/12), either electronically or in hard copy, no later than 45 days from the date of the Federal Register Notice.

**ADDRESSES :**  Submissions of DHS Form 10088 (9/12) shall go to the following:

Hardcopy signed original document to Captain Joselito Ignacio Deputy Program Director, Chemical Defense Program Department of Homeland Security/ Office of Health Affairs, 245 Murray Lane SW., Mail Stop: 0315 Washington, DC 20528; or Electronically to Joselito.Ignacio@hq.dhs.gov.

**FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT :**  CAPTAIN JOSELITO IGNACIO, 202–
254–5738 OR joselito.ignacio@ hq.dhs.gov.

**SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION :**  The demonstration projects are based on appropriations found in Public Law 112–74 (Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2012) and Public Law 133–6 (‘‘The Consolidated and Further Continuing Appropriations Act, 2013’’), which call for the Chemical Defense Program of DHS OHA to conduct a competitive
selection of locations and venues to participate in chemical detection demonstration projects. The DHS OHA CDP will initiate, fund and manage the demonstration projects, but in close
coordination with the selected SLTT government agencies and venue operators. The demonstration project will result in, among other things: (a) A review of current community preparedness capabilities as well as gaps protecting from and responding to a catastrophic chemical incident; (b) community and venue-specific risk assessments, based on likely scenarios, to provide information on chemical threats; (c) technology alignment to include review of existing or intended
detect-to-warn or detect-to-treat capabilities in communities; (d) optimizing the communities’ response system through decision analysis and the development of a concept of operations plan that defines common mission, roles, responsibilities and key actions necessary for responding to these events; and (e) exercise evaluation using the Homeland Security Exercise and Evaluation Program (HSEEP) process. Through successful completion of these demonstration projects, the
selected communities will have enhanced preparedness of their emergency management, first responder, and first receiver groups with the knowledge, skills and tools to act swiftly and competently in protecting lives and restoring peace of mind in response to a catastrophic chemical
incident.

As stated, DHS will conduct a competitive selection. A DHS selection panel, led by the DHS OHA CDP, will carefully review the completed and signed DHS Form 10088 (9/12) and rate each submission using weighted criteria on the basis of (a) chemical threat risk (which the DHS Chemical Terrorism Risk Assessments and SLTT government agencies’ input will inform); (b) community interest to host a demonstration project; and (c) reasons given for desiring a demonstration project hosted in this community and specific venue. Numerically sequenced from high to low values, top tiered
communities are then selected to have these projects conducted in their
locations. All communities will receive
notification of the selection results. Once selected, DHS OHA CDP will enter


### 60888 Federal Register / Vol. 78, No. 191 / Wednesday, October 2, 2013 / Notices

into a Memorandum of Agreement with the selected SLTT government agencies to clarify roles and responsibilities.

Selected SLTT government agencies must work cooperatively with DHS OHA CDP with all phases of the demonstration project. Expected activities include (a) participation in all planning meetings on site or via teleconference; (b) establish formal relationships with selected venues’ owners and operators in order for DHS OHA CDP or its designated performers
to have access to all outdoor and indoor spaces; (c) review and provide technical input on any developed guidance documents and plans by DHS OHA CDP or its performers within assigned deadlines and (e) serve as a community conduit with key stakeholders within the selected cities in order to gain input in the demonstration projects (e.g. emergency medical services, fire/ hazmat, hospitals, public health). There are no funds given to the selected SLTT government agencies or venues as part of these demonstration projects, including funds for purchase of equipment.

Authority: Pub. L. 112–74, Pub. L. 133–6.

**SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION :** 
I. Background

In accordance with the Privacy Act of 1974, 5 U.S.C. 552a, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) proposes to update, combine, and reissue the following legacy record systems: Department of Transportation (DOT)/ Office of the Secretary of Transportation (OST) 004 Board for Correction of Military Records (BCMR) System of Records, 65 FR 19551—(April 11, 2000);
and DOT/OST 059—Files for the Board for Correction of Military Records System, BCMR, for the Coast Guard, 65 FR 19557 (April 11, 2000) as a new Department of Homeland Security system of records notice titled, DHS/
ALL—036 Board for Correction of Military Records System of Records. This new SORN is being published by the Department of Homeland Security since the U.S. Coast Guard (USCG) was moved from the Department of Transportation to the Department of Homeland Security. Under 10 U.S.C. 1552, the Board for Correction of Military Records (BCMR) is a board of civilians within the U.S. Department of Homeland Security, Office of the General Counsel, which has authority under 10 U.S.C. 1552, to review and correct the personnel records of current
and former members of the USCG and USCG Reserve. This system of records notice allows the Department to collect
and maintain records submitted and created during the BMCR process.

The BCMR is a forum that allows current and former USCG military personnel or their authorized representatives to apply for correction of their military personnel records. In
order to determine whether the requested correction should be made, the BCMR receives, reviews, and stores applications, arguments, and evidence submitted by applicants and their representatives as well as copies of applicants’ military and, if applicable,
medical records. The BCMR also receives, reviews, and stores advisory opinions and evidence submitted by the USCG for each case; copies of applicable investigations; and correspondence related to the applications. The BCMR retains copies of the decisions issued. The records in this system are used by
the Chair’s staff and members of the Board in determining whether to grant relief to applicants; by the General Counsel and his or her staff in deciding whether to approve, disapprove, or
remand the decisions of the Board. The records are also used by the Coast Guard in preparing its advisory opinions to the Board concerning pending cases and in implementing the Board’s orders.

This new system will be included in DHS’s inventory of record systems.

II. Privacy Act

The Privacy Act embodies fair information practice principles in a statutory framework governing the means by which federal government agencies collect, maintain, use, and
disseminate individuals’ records. The Privacy Act applies to information that is maintained in a ‘‘system of records.’’ A ‘‘system of records’’ is a group of any records under the control of an agency from which information is retrieved by the name of an individual or by some identifying number, symbol, or other identifying particular assigned to the
