Strategic Context

Component Overview

The strategic context presents the performance budget by tying together strategy, budget resource requests, programs, or PPAs, and performance 

measures that gauge the delivery of results to our stakeholders. The U.S. Coast Guard has one primary PPA known as Operations and Support to 

which it’s publically reported measures align. These measures are presented in two measure sets – strategic and management measures – and 

listed under descriptions for the five U.S. Coast Guards mission programs. Strategic measures communicate results delivered for our agency goals 

and are considered our Government Performance and Results Act Modernization Act of 2010 (GPRAMA) measures. Additional management 

measures are displayed to provide a more thorough context of expected performance for the Component related to its budgetary plans. Measure 

tables that do not display previous year’s results are because the measure did not exist at that time.

Maritime Law Enforcement: The Maritime Law Enforcement program preserves America’s jurisdictional rights within our maritime borders. 

The U.S. Coast Guard is the lead federal maritime law enforcement agency for enforcing national and international law on the high seas, outer 

continental shelf, and inward from the U.S. Exclusive Economic Zone to inland navigable waters, including the Great Lakes. The following 

statutory missions contribute to the U.S. Coast Guard’s Maritime Law Enforcement program: Drug Interdiction; Migrant Interdiction; Living 

Marine Resources; and Other Law Enforcement.

Strategic Measures 

Measure: Fishing regulation compliance rate

Description: The U.S. Coast Guard uses the percentage of fishing vessels observed at sea complying with domestic regulations as a measure of the 

Coast Guard's activities and their impact on the health and well-being of U.S. fisheries and marine protected species. This specific measure 

reflects the percent of boardings at sea by the U.S. Coast Guard during which no significant violations of domestic fisheries regulations are 

detected.

Measure: Interdiction rate of foreign fishing vessels violating U.S. waters

Description: This measure reports the percent of detected incursions into the U.S. Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ) by foreign fishing vessels that 

are interdicted by the Coast Guard. Preventing illegal foreign fishing vessels from encroaching on the Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ) is a 

priority for the Coast Guard. Foreign fishing fleets steal a valuable resource, resulting in a total economic loss to the American public. Protecting 

the integrity of the nation’s maritime borders and ensuring the health of U.S. fisheries is a vital part of the Coast Guard mission.

Maritime Response: The Maritime Response program mitigates the consequences of marine casualties and disastrous events. The U.S. Coast 

Guard preparedness efforts ensure incident response and recovery resources are fully ready and capable to minimize impact of disasters to people, 

the environment, and the economy. The following statutory missions contribute to the U.S. Coast Guard’s Maritime Response program: Search 

and Rescue and Marine Environmental Protection.

Strategic Measures

Measure: Percent of people in imminent danger saved in the maritime environment

Description: This is a measure of the percent of people who were in imminent danger on the oceans and other waterways and whose lives were 

saved by U.S Coast Guard. The number of lives lost before and after the U.S Coast Guard is notified and the number of persons missing at the end 

of search operations are factored into this percentage. Several factors hinder successful response including untimely distress notification to the U.S 

Coast Guard, incorrect distress site location reporting, severe weather conditions at the distress site, and distance to the scene.

Measure: Five-year average number of navigational accidents

Description: This measure evaluates the long-term trend of U.S. Coast Guard Waterways Management Program in preventing collisions, allisions 

(vessels striking fixed objects), and groundings.

Fiscal Year: FY 2015 FY 2016 FY 2017 FY 2018 FY 2019 FY 2020

Target: <=2,038 <=1,900 <=1,890 <=1,749 <=1,727 <=1,704

Result: 1,788 1,617 1,475 1,344 TBD TBD

Measure: Percent of time rescue assets are on-scene within 2 hours

Description: Time on scene is calculated from the earliest time a Search and Rescue Unit (SRU) is requested to proceed until the earliest time of 

arrival on scene of an SRU. This includes readiness time, the 30 minutes of preparation time, that provides for underway preps (i.e. engine warmups, underway checklist, risk management evaluation, and mission planning) and the transit time, the 90 minutes from underway to on scene based 

on moderate environmental conditions which allow for operation of the SRUs at their top cruise speeds. To calculate the response times used in the 

measure, the Coast Guard uses the following equation: Time On Scene = First Sortie On Scene Time minus First Resource Requested Time. The 

Coast Guard established the 2-hour On Scene Standard in the 1970's and conducted a full review of the standard in 1992. The standard is based on 

survival expectations in the average weighted water temperatures. The weighting factors into the varying number of incidents occurring 

regionally.

Maritime Security Operations: The Maritime Security Operations program encompasses activities to detect, deter, prevent, disrupt, and recover 

from terrorist attacks and other criminal acts in the maritime domain. It includes the execution of antiterrorism, response, and select recovery 

operations. This program conducts the operational element of the U.S. Coast Guard’s Ports, Waterways, and Coastal Security mission and 

complements the other two elements: the establishment and oversight of maritime security regimes, and maritime domain awareness.

Strategic Measures

Measure: Number of breaches at high-risk maritime facilities

Description: This measure reports the number of security breaches at facilities subject to the Maritime Transportation Security Act (MTSA) where 

no Transportation Security Incident has occurred, but established security measures have been circumvented, eluded or violated. MTSA facilities 

are a high-risk subset of the national waterfront facility population given the nature of their activities and/or the products they handle. As such, 

they pose a greater risk for significant loss of life, environmental damage, or economic disruption if attacked. MTSA regulated facilities constitute 

more than 3,400 high-risk subset of all waterfront facilities. They are facilities that handle certain dangerous cargoes, liquid natural gas, transfer 

oil, hazardous materials in bulk; or receive foreign cargo vessels greater than 100 gross tons, U.S. cargo vessels greater than 100 gross tons 

carrying certain dangerous cargoes, or vessels carrying more than 150 passengers.

Result: --- --- --- 320 TBD TBD

Management Measures 

Measure: Annual Maritime Transportation Security Act (MTSA) Facility compliance rate with Transportation Worker Identification Credential 

(TWIC) regulations

Description: This measure reports the percent of Maritime Transportation Security Act (MTSA) regulated facilities that are found to be in 

compliance with the Transportation Worker Identification Card (TWIC) regulations during U.S. Coast Guard inspections. The Security and 

Accountability for Every (SAFE) Port Act of 2006 requires the U.S. Coast Guard to conduct at least two MTSA security inspections on regulated 

facilities each year; one announced and one unannounced. U.S. Coast Guard Inspectors randomly sample different areas of a facility (admin staff, 

security staff, dock workers, etc.) to check for TWIC compliance by ensuring workers have a valid and current TWIC card. Some infractions can 

be corrected on the spot, e.g., a trucker forgot his TWIC in his truck cab. Depending on the number and severity of TWIC infractions, the 

inspector/Captain of the Port may find the facility not in compliance. Statistical guidelines have been developed based on the size of the facility to 

aid inspectors, and to ensure random sampling.

Measure: Percent reduction of all maritime security risk subject to U.S. Coast Guard influence

Description: This is a risk-based outcome measure that begins with an assessment (by maritime security subject matter experts) of 16 highconsequence maritime terrorist attack scenarios. Threat, vulnerability, and consequence levels are estimated for each scenario, which generates a 

proxy (index) value of "raw risk" that exists in the maritime domain. Next, U.S. Coast Guard interventions (security and response operations, 

regime and awareness activities) for the fiscal year are scored against the scenarios with regard to the decreases in threat, vulnerability and 

consequence that each has been estimated to have afforded. (The analysis then focuses on those areas within the U.S. Coast Guard's roles and 

strategic mandates.) The resulting measure is a proxy measure of performance. Targets for FY11-FY16 have increased relative to FY 2010 due to a 

revised methodology that took effect in FY11.

Result: 58% 44% 49% 52% TBD TBD

Measure: Percent reduction of maritime security risk resulting from U.S. Coast Guard consequence management

Description: This measure indicates the estimated percent of terrorist-related maritime risk reduction due to consequence management, as a 

percent of the risk that U.S. Coast Guard has the ability to impact. This is a risk-based measure that involves the scoring (by maritime security 

subject matter experts) of 16 high-consequence maritime terrorist attack scenarios with respect to threat, vulnerability, and consequence. 

Aggregation of maritime security risk scenarios generates an index of "raw risk" that exists in the maritime domain. U.S. Coast Guard layered 

interventions (both operational and regulatory-based) employed throughout the fiscal year are scored against the attack scenarios with regard to the 

percent consequence after a modeled attack has occurred. The resultant measure shows the reduction in "raw risk" from U.S. Coast Guard 

consequence mitigation efforts alone. Targets for FY11-16 have increased relative to FY10 due to a revised methodology that took effect in FY11.

Measure: Percent reduction of maritime security risk resulting from U.S. Coast Guard efforts to prevent a terrorist entering the U.S. via maritime 

means

Description: This measure is an estimate of the percent of terrorist-related maritime risk reduction of the illegal entry of a terrorist(s) through the 

maritime domain (as a percent of the risk that the U.S. Coast Guard has the ability to impact). This is a risk-based measure that involves the 

scoring (by maritime security subject matter experts) with respect to threat, vulnerability and consequence of the illegal entry of a terrorist(s) into 

the U.S. with intent and capability to carry out terror attacks within the United States where vessels en route from foreign countries are used as a 

means of conveyance. Such scoring generates an index of "raw risk" that exists in the maritime domain. Next, U.S. Coast Guard incremental 

interventions (awareness, operational and regulatory-based) that have taken place throughout the fiscal year are scored with regard to the 

effectiveness each has been estimated to have afforded. Targets for FY11-16 have increased due to a revised methodology that takes effect in 

FY11.

Measure: Percent reduction of maritime security risk resulting from U.S. Coast Guard efforts to prevent a weapon of mass destruction from 

entering the United States via maritime means

Description: This measure is an estimate of the percent of terrorist-related maritime risk reduction of the illegal entry of a Weapon of Mass 

Destruction (WMD)/materials into the United States through the maritime domain (as a percent of the risk that the U.S. Coast Guard has the ability 

to impact). This is a risk-based measure that involves the scoring (by maritime security subject matter experts) with respect to threat, vulnerability 

and consequence of the illegal entry of a WMD/materials into the United States to support ongoing terrorist operations where vessels enroute from 

foreign countries are used as a means of conveyance. Scoring generates an index of "raw risk" that exists in the maritime domain. U.S. Coast 

Guard incremental interventions (awareness, operational and regulatory-based) that have taken place throughout the fiscal year are scored with 

regard to the effectiveness that each has been estimated to have afforded. Targets for FY11-16 have increased relative to FY 2010 due to a revised 

methodology.

Maritime Transportation Systems Management: The Marine Transportation System Management program ensures a safe, secure, efficient and 

environmentally sound waterways system. The U.S. Coast Guard minimizes disruptions to maritime commerce by assessing and mitigating risks 

to safe navigation and by providing waterways restoration capabilities after extreme weather events, marine accidents, or terrorist incidents. The 

U.S. Coast Guard works in concert with other federal agencies, state and local governments, marine industries, maritime associations, and the 

international community to optimize balanced use of the Nation’s marine transportation system. The following statutory missions contribute to 

the U.S. Coast Guard’s Marine Transportation System Management program: Aids to Navigation and Ice Operations.

Strategic Measures

Measure: Availability of maritime navigation aids

Description: This measure indicates the hours that short-range federal Aids to Navigation are available. The aid availability rate is based on an 

international measurement standard established by the International Association of Marine Aids to Navigation and Lighthouse Authorities (IALA) 

(Recommendation O-130) in December 2004. A short-range Aid to Navigation is counted as not being available from the initial time a 

discrepancy is reported until the time the discrepancy is corrected.

Measure: Percent of time high priority waterways in the Great Lakes and along the eastern seaboard are open during ice season

Description: This measure is the percent of time Tier One Waterways, in the Great Lakes and along the eastern seaboard, are open to vessel 

transits during the icebreaking season as a percentage of the total. Tier One Waterways are those connecting waterways of the Marine 

Transportation System that waterways managers at Coast Guard District commands determine are highest-priority due to geographical location or 

importance of cargo to public health and safety.

*In FY 2019, USCG is transitioning to the DHS Common Appropriations Structure (CAS). FY 2017 and FY 2018 data reflect funding levels for legacy appropriations. Conversion to CAS results in the consolidation of legacy EC&R, RT, and MERHCF appropriations and 

acquisition personnel funding into O&S.

Component Budget Overview

For the FY2020 President’s Budget, the U.S. Coast Guard (USCG) requests $11.3B in total gross budget authority. This represents a decrease of 

$311.8M from the FY 2019 President’s Budget.

The Coast Guard is the only branch of the U.S. Armed Forces within the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and the principal Federal agency 

responsible for maritime safety, security, and environmental stewardship in U.S. ports and inland waterways, along more than 95,000 miles of U.S. 

coastline, throughout the 4.5 million square miles of U.S. Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ), and on the high seas. A military service, law 

enforcement agency, first responder during natural disasters, and member of the U.S. Intelligence Community, the Coast Guard supports DOD 

Combatant Commanders on all seven continents, secures our maritime borders, combats transnational criminal organizations, and safeguards the $4.6 

trillion U.S. maritime economy. The Service leverages an expansive array of military, interagency, international, and industrial relationships to 

maximize strategic effect and support DHS and National priorities.
Department of Homeland Security U.S. Coast Guard

USCG - 17

The FY 2020 Budget Request sustains the most critical Coast Guard operations and continues the Service’s highest priority recapitalization efforts 

for cutters, boats, aircraft, systems, and infrastructure. The Budget includes 50,849 positions; 49,216 FTE; and funding for all 11 statutory Coast 

Guard missions. In FY 2020, the Coast Guard continues to efficiently allocate budgetary resources to optimize performance across all Coast Guard 

mission programs and activities.

FY 2020 funding supports construction of the third Offshore Patrol Cutter (OPC) and Long Lead Time Material (LLTM) for the fourth and fifth. 

Furthermore, the Budget continues efforts on the Polar Security Cutter (PSC) program to meet growing demands in the Polar Regions, as well as 

continues the service-life extension of the POLAR STAR, the Nation’s only heavy icebreaker in service. In addition to surface recapitalization 

efforts, FY 2020 funding continues sustainment and conversion work on in-service fixed and rotary wing aircraft, including missionization of the C27J aircraft received from the Air Force, and investment in Small Unmanned Aircraft Systems (sUAS), which have proven to be highly effective in 

the Western Hemisphere transit zone.

The FY 2020 Budget Request resources the Coast Guard to conduct today’s highest priority operations in support of national objectives. In 2020, the 

Coast Guard will accept delivery of more capable, modernized assets, including one National Security Cutter, crew for the first OPC, five Fast 

Response Cutters, and one HC-130J aircraft – the Budget provides the resources to operate and maintain these new assets. The Budget Request also 

makes significant investments to improve the readiness of the workforce, in the cybersecurity domain, and to combat Transnational Criminal 

Organizations (TCOs).

Reports

Environmental Compliance and Restoration (EC&R) Project Backlog Impact

The information presented below fulfills the directive in Senate Report 114-68 accompanying the Fiscal Year (FY) 2016 Department of Homeland 

Security Appropriations Act (P.L. 114-113): 

“The Coast Guard is directed to include in its annual budget justification a listing of the activities projected to be funded by the amount requested 

under this heading and an updated backlog report for Environmental Compliance and Restoration projects, with an explanation of how the 

amount requested will impact this documented backlog.”

The Coast Guard's prioritized listing of projects eligible for EC&R funding is reflective of the Coast Guard’s review of current EC&R requirements 

and both completion and consolidation of projects. This list contains 185 projects with an estimated total cost of $154.1M. Estimated costs include 

restoration work to be accomplished in various stages (i.e., investigation work, site remediation work, and long term management) and to be executed 

across several years (e.g., long term management can potentially extend out to 30 years or more). The following table provides a detailed listing of 

potential future EC&R priority projects. The list is adjusted as new information from complete assessments and project risk prioritization becomes 

available.

FY 2020 EC&R funding of $13.5M continues long term monitoring at 7 sites, begins or continues investigation/remediation site work at 24 sites, and 

displays a commitment to ongoing identification, investigation, cleanup, and long-term management of contamination from hazardous substances and 

pollutants for Coast Guard systems, buildings, structures, and assets.

*In FY 2019, USCG transitioned to the DHS Common Appropriations Structure (CAS). FY 2018 data reflects funding levels for legacy appropriations. FY 2020 data reflects the transfer of EC&R and MERHCFC out of O&S back into stand-alone appropriations.

The Operations and Support (O&S) appropriation funds the Coast Guard’s roles and responsibilities as the principal Federal agency in the maritime 

domain providing for the safety, security, and stewardship of U.S. resources for the Nation.

The O&S appropriation funds the annualization of prior-year funding, economic adjustments, and operating and maintenance funding for new and 

existing Coast Guard Programs, Projects, and Activities (PPAs). The O&S request directly funds all 11 statutory Coast Guard missions and other 

Service activities in support of the Department of Homeland Security and National priorities. Of the funding, $24.5M is derived from the Oil Spill 

Liability Trust Fund as authorized by the Oil Pollution Act of 1990 (33 USC § 2701-2761).

The O&S request includes increases for the annualization of FY 2019 initiatives; the FY 2019 military pay increase of 2.6%; the FY 2020 military 

pay increase of 3.1%; military and civilian personnel allowances and benefits; operational adjustments; the operation, maintenance, and crewing of 

systems, vessels, aircraft, and shore facilities delivered via the Coast Guard’s acquisition programs (i.e., Shore Facilities, Fast Response Cutter 

(FRC), Offshore Patrol Cutter (OPC), National Security Cutter (NSC), C-27J aircraft, and HC-130J aircraft); and the training, operation, and 

administration of the Coast Guard Reserve Program, including training, equipping, and ensuring the readiness of the Coast Guard Reserve workforce 
U.S. Coast Guard Operations and Support

USCG-O&S-5

to augment active duty Coast Guard forces during times of crisis, domestically or worldwide. The O&S request also funds initiatives that begin to 

address the erosion of readiness and invest in key national strategic homeland security priorities, including cybersecurity and efforts to combat 

transnational criminal organizations (TCOs). The O&S request includes decreases to continue the focus on the most critical frontline operations in 

FY 2020. The O&S request includes decreases for: termination of one-time costs; annualization of prior-year initiative reductions; operational 

adjustments; and cutter decommissioning’s.

Within the O&S appropriation are seven PPAs:

Military Pay and Allowances: The Military Pay and Allowances PPA funds expenses related to compensation and benefits for active duty military 

personnel.

Civilian Pay and Benefits: The Civilian Pay and Benefits PPA funds expenses related to compensation and entitlements for Federal civilian 

employees.

Training and Recruiting: The Training and Recruiting PPA provides funding for the Coast Guard’s basic and advanced professional training and 

education programs. Additionally, it funds the operation and maintenance of the eight national Coast Guard training centers, the Coast Guard 

Academy, nine regional training centers, and all Coast Guard recruiting centers.

Operating Funds and Unit Level Maintenance: The Operating Funds and Unit Level Maintenance PPA provides funds for units, facilities, and 

activities that are under the direct operational and administrative control of the Coast Guard’s Headquarters, Atlantic Area Commander, and Pacific 

Area Commander.

Centrally Managed Accounts: The Centrally Managed Accounts PPA funds services provided across the entire Coast Guard.

Intermediate and Depot Level Maintenance: The Intermediate and Depot Level Maintenance PPA funds the Coast Guard’s depot level 

maintenance for the Service’s vessels, aircraft, and shore facilities. This PPA also funds maintenance and support of enterprise IT software systems, 

enterprise communication/network services, standard workstations, the Coast Guard Data Network (CGOne), cybersecurity, satellite and data 

communications, and other Coast Guard-wide Command, Control, Communication, Computer, and Information Technology (C4IT) systems.

Reserve Training: The Reserve Training PPA funds the training, operation, and administration of the Coast Guard Reserve Program and ensures the

readiness of a 7,000 member Coast Guard Reserve, which provides units with personnel to augment active duty Coast Guard forces during times of 

crisis, domestically or worldwide.

Funding for EC&R and MERHCFC is requested in stand-alone appropriations for the FY 2020 President’s Budget via a transfer out of the O&S 

appropriation and into stand-alone appropriations. In the FY 2019 President’s Budget, funding for EC&R and MERHCFC was requested and 

displayed as PPAs in the O&S appropriation.

Transfer 2 – Transfer to MERHCFC from O&S/MERHCFC for CAS Transition: Transfers FY 2019 base funding out of O&S into the 

MERHCFC appropriation to reflect changes to the proposed CAS transition from FY 2019. The FY 2019 Consolidated Appropriations Act removed 

MERHCFC from O&S due to existing appropriations law (e.g., P.L. 108-375, the 2005 Defense Appropriations Act) which provides authority to pay 

on an annual basis. The FY 2020 President’s Budget submission incorporates this change.

Program Change 1 – Accession Point and TRACEN Instructor Increase:

Description

The FY 2020 request includes an increase of 19 positions, 10 FTE, and $2.1M. This funding adds instructors and administrative staff at accession 

sources and technical training schools. The O&S base for this program is 1,758 positions and $188.0M.

Justification

The request funds additional instructors and Company Commanders to meet the recruiting goals projected for FY 2020. Additional Officer Candidate 

School (OCS) instructors allow a total throughput of 395 students, an increase of 40 students per year needed to fill current personnel gaps. 

Additional Company Commanders at Training Center (TRACEN) Cape May, New Jersey meets the anticipated throughput of 3,800 recruits 

annually. The request also addresses instructor gaps at “A” and “C” schools and additional staffing partially closes current gap while ensuring the 

required quality of training. 

Performance

The Service has fallen behind in its ability to adequately train new personnel in basic and advanced qualifications. This request ensures new 

personnel are available to fill gaps in highly technical specialties and reduces current backlogs in advanced training courses.

Program Change 2 – Acquisition Support Personnel:

Description

The FY 2020 request includes an increase of 60 positions, 32 FTE, and $5.5M. This request provides funding to increase the Coast Guard’s 
U.S. Coast Guard Operations and Support

USCG-O&S-22

professional acquisition workforce. This increase is required to oversee and support Procurement, Construction, & Improvement (PC&I) programs. 

The primary activities include project management, financial management, support services, training, and workforce certification. The base for this 

program is 1,006 positions, 881 FTE, and $127.0M.

Justification

This request funds compensation, benefits, and related costs for personnel who perform work on Coast Guard PC&I initiatives. Coast Guard 

acquisition programs rely on an appropriate level of government acquisition professionals with the competencies and capacity to manage acquisitions 

in accordance with Coast Guard and DHS policies, while meeting additional requirements established in the Chief Financial Officer Act, ClingerCohen Act, DHS certification level requirements, and OMB Circular A-76.

Performance

Investment in capital assets requires a professional acquisition workforce to ensure proper execution of appropriated funds. The initiative includes 

staffing for, but is not all inclusive of, Offshore Patrol Cutter (OPC) and Polar Security Cutter (PSC), 47' motor life boat service life extension 

project, Waterways Commerce Cutter (WCC), electronic health records acquisition, Command, Control, Communication, Computer, Cyber, and 

Intelligence (C5I) personnel, and construction specialists to execute shore infrastructure projects.

Program Change 3 – Administrative Program Reduction:

Description

The FY 2020 request includes a reduction of 1 position, 1 FTE, and $582,000. This request eliminates the Decision Lens software contract and 

personnel associated with managing the program. The base for this program is 1 position, 1 FTE, and $582,000.

Justification

The Coast Guard will end the Decision Lens contract. Decision Lens software previously had been used for project prioritization.

Performance

The reduction will not impact performance. Decision Lens was redundant of other decision-making resources used by the Coast Guard.

Program Change 4 – Aircraft FAA Compliance & Obsolete Equipment Replacement:

Description

The FY 2020 request includes an increase of 0 positions, 0 FTE, and $22.2M. The request provides funding to continue upgrades and associated 

equipment to ensure HC-130J and HC-144 aircraft comply with Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) FY 2020 requirements. Funding also 

supports integration, testing, and fielding of Automatic Dependent Surveillance-Broadcast (ADS-B) capability on all aircraft to comply with FAA

2020 requirements. This multi-year maintenance and obsolete equipment replacement program will be conducted in conjunction with planned depot 

maintenance for the HC-144s and with a Joint Users Group, including partners from all U.S. Government HC-130J users. The O&S base for this 

program is 0 positions, 0 FTE, and $0.0M. All previous years’ budget requests were one-time funds; this is the final year for FAA Compliance 
U.S. Coast Guard Operations and Support

USCG-O&S-23

funding.

Justification

14 U.S.C. Part 91 mandates that all users of the national airspace system have ADS-B capability by January 1, 2020; this is required to continue 

flight operations in the national airspace system. 

Performance

Failure to fund this initiative may result in airspace denial, directly impacting the ability of all air assets to conduct operations across all Coast Guard 

and DHS missions. With this funding, aircraft will be allowed to access to the national airspace system, ensuring no degradation of operational 

mission execution across the Coast Guard. The Coast Guard will be included in DHS’s submission for a FAA accommodation waiver in alignment 

with DOD’s request.

Program Change 5 – Aviation Enhancements in Transit Zones:

Description

The FY 2020 request includes an increase of 17 positions, 9 FTE, and $1.5M. This request funds additional precision marksmen and boat crews

needed to increase armed helicopter capacity. The base for this program is 44 positions, 42 FTE, and $4.4M. 

Justification

The Helicopter Interdiction Squadron (HITRON) will receive a 13th aircraft in FY 2020. These personnel are required to fully utilize the 13th aircraft 

and increase capacity from current 1,460 days deployed to future target of 1,825 days deployed. In FY 2017, cutters deployed to the Eastern Pacific 

(EPAC) with HITRON helicopters achieved an average 6.8 illicit drug seizures per patrol; cutters deployed to EPAC without HITRON helicopters 

only achieved an average 2.9 illicit drug seizures per patrol.

Performance

Coast Guard helicopters are DHS’s only shipboard deployable authorized use of force package and trained precision marksmen are a key element 

against transnational criminal organizations in the maritime transit zones. HITRON helicopters are one of the primary Coast Guard assets used by 

Joint Task Force-West (JTF-W) and Joint Task Force-East (JTF-E) in carrying out operational missions.

Program Change 6 – Aviation Life Support Equipment Centralization:

Description

The FY 2020 request includes an increase of 1 position, 1 FTE, and a decrease of $49,000. This efficiency centralizes all rotary-wing aviation life 

safety and support equipment such as flight helmets, thermal undergarments, and wet and dry suits, into one central inventory control point at the 

Coast Guard’s Aviation Logistics Center (ALC) in Elizabeth City, North Carolina. The base for this program is 0 positions, 0 FTE, and $1.9M.

Justification

Centralization and consolidation of life safety and support parts and equipment yields personnel and contracting efficiencies resulting in overall 
U.S. Coast Guard Operations and Support

USCG-O&S-24

savings and reduces burden on the operational units.

Performance

Access to the inventory of aviation life safety equipment will improve while reducing the burden of resource acquisition on operational units.

Program Change 7 – C-27J Aircraft Support Follow-On:

Description

The FY 2020 request includes an increase of 4 positions, 3 FTE, and $592,000. This request supports sustainment and depot level overhaul activities 

and training personnel for the C-27J fleet. The base for this program is 0 positions, 0 FTE, and $0.0M.

Justification

The National Defense Authorization Act of 2014 authorized the transfer of fourteen C-27J aircraft from the U.S. Air Force to the Department of 

Homeland Security (U.S. Coast Guard). The C-27J will complement the medium range surveillance (MRS) fleet of HC-144 aircraft for at least the 

next 25 years. 

Performance

The C-27J Spartan has been integrated into the Coast Guard’s medium range surveillance aircraft fleet alongside the HC-144 Ocean Sentry. Six C27J aircraft have been operationalized to replace HC-130H long range surveillance aircraft. This request keeps the C-27J program on schedule for 

transition to sustainment. 

Program Change 8 – Counter TCO Initiative:

Description

This request provides funding for 48 positions, 26 FTE, at a cost of $6.5M, to expand the Coast Guard’s capacity to execute a multi-layered approach 

in the Western Hemisphere maritime transit zone, dismantle Transnational Criminal Organizations (TCOs), and secure our Nation’s borders from

illicit smuggling of all kinds. This request provides enhanced interdiction capabilities, including: Document and Media Exploitation and Biometric 

collection; engagement and capacity building with partner nations through the Coast Guard’s Mobile Training Branch; increased participation in the 

Panama Express (PANEX) Organized Crime Drug Enforcement Task Force (OCDETF) Strike Force, which aims to identify, disrupt, and dismantle 

TCOs involved in large-scale drug trafficking, money laundering, and related activities; and increased organic intelligence production and analysis 

capacity.

Justification

Instability and violence in Central America continues to threaten our Nation’s security. To combat this threat, the Coast Guard employs robust 

surveillance, interdiction, prosecution, and intelligence capabilities as part of a layered approach 1,500 miles south of the Southern Border. This 

offensive posture disrupts TCOs where they are most vulnerable – at sea – and thwarts TCO-driven illicit maritime movements to prevent 

exploitation of our Southern Border. The Coast Guard’s drug interdiction efforts increase stability in Central America, which quells illegal migration 

to the United States’ land border. 
U.S. Coast Guard Operations and Support

USCG-O&S-25

Performance

Building the capability to target and collect intelligence, and support interdiction to combat TCOs, the Coast Guard can continue to build and 

leverage vital relationships with partner nations’ law enforcement networks. These efforts increase interdictions, reduce violence, and stabilize 

Central American governments, resulting in decreased illegal migration at the land border. In addition, the Coast Guard will increase international 

training capacity to allow Central American and other Western Hemisphere partners to improve their maritime governance and the rule of law. 

Program Change 9 – Cutter Underway Connectivity:

Description

The FY 2020 request includes an increase of 0 positions, 0 FTE, and $302,000. The request addresses existing Commercial Satellite Communication 

(COMSATCOM) network connectivity limitations for cutters. The base for this program is 1 position, 1 FTE, and $1.4M.

Justification

Underway connectivity airtime usage has increased since the installation of modern Information Technology and communications equipment. Time 

sensitive systems patching to address cyber threats have significantly increased the demand for cutter network connectivity while underway.

Description

The FY 2020 request includes an increase of 75 positions, 38 FTE, and $16.2M. The request provides an information technology framework and 

platform to establish a consolidated user interface primarily for Command Centers. Interface focus is on timely and efficient access to operational and 

mission support data. This request also includes critical positions to mature the cybersecurity defense program. The base for this program is 64

positions, 64 FTE, and $4.5M.

Justification

Current architecture restricts the ability to display disparate data without frequent system switching. The time delay and segmented data display 

impact time critical operations. Additionally, moving beyond initial operating capability for the Coast Guard cybersecurity defense program is a key 

enabler of other operations. 

Performance

Mission success is dependent on efficiently processing and exchanging information. Direct impact spans such missions as search and rescue and 

interdiction operations. Initial efforts will focus on increased efficiency between operator and data retrieval and the optimization of network 
U.S. Coast Guard Operations and Support

USCG-O&S-26

bandwidth. Appreciable gains in bandwidth utilization are expected through tailored delivery of data to end users, largely eliminating user interaction 

with heavy demand applications. Additionally, a mature Cyber Protection Team is critical to the defense of the Coast Guard data network and the 

defensive posture of the Marine Transportation System. 

Program Change 11 – Decommission One High Endurance Cutter (WHEC):

Description

The FY 2020 request includes a decrease of 184 positions, 92 FTE, and $9.3M. The request decommissions one legacy High Endurance Cutter 

(WHEC). The base for this program is 184 positions, 184 FTE, and $21.3M.

Justification

The remaining WHEC fleet is operating well beyond its design service life and is increasingly costly to maintain and operate. Following this 

decommissioning, there are two WHECs remaining in the operational fleet.

Performance

The reduction will not impact performance. The WHEC fleet is being replaced by more capable National Security Cutters (NSCs), which are 

exceeding performance expectations. 

Program Change 12 – Decommission Three 110-Foot Patrol Boats:

Description

The FY 2020 request includes a decrease of 54 positions, 27 FTE, and $2.6M. The request decommissions three 110-foot Island Class patrol boats. 

The base for this program is 54 positions, 54 FTE, and $6.6M.

Justification

The 110-foot patrol boat fleet is beyond its projected 20-year service life and is increasingly costly to maintain and operate. Following these 

decommissionings, there are eleven 110-foot patrol boats in the domestic operational fleet.

Performance

The reduction will not impact performance. The 110-foot patrol boats are being replaced by the more capable Fast Response Cutters (FRCs).

Program Change 13 – Eliminate Joint Maritime Test Facility Support Personnel:

Description

The FY 2020 Budget includes a reduction of 4 positions, 4 FTE, and $0.4M for the Joint Maritime Test Facility (JMTF). The base for the program is 

4 positions, 4 FTE, and $0.4M. 
U.S. Coast Guard Operations and Support

USCG-O&S-27

Justification

The JMTF is a joint Navy and Coast Guard facility located on Sand Island in Mobile, Alabama. The facility is primarily a large-scale marine in-situ 

burn test platform used to conduct research and analysis of alternative methods for removing pollutants through burning. In-situ burning is the 

process of removing or otherwise mitigating surface pollutants (e.g., oil and other lighter-than-water products) by burning. Beginning in FY 2018, the 

Naval Research Laboratory stopped providing resources or other support to operate the JMTF. Previously, the Navy provided more than two-thirds of 

the total cost to operate the facility. The Coast Guard is unable to provide the full amount necessary to operate and maintain the facility.

Performance

The Coast Guard will use alternative means of exploring and testing marine pollutant removal capabilities with existing resources, including the 

Coast Guard Research and Development Center, to ensure no degradation in performance.

Program Change 14 – Enhancing Reserve Workforce Retention:

The FY 2020 request includes an increase of 0 positions, 0 FTE, and $2.7M. The request provides funding to support Tuition Assistance for the 

drilling Reserve workforce. The base for this program is 0 positions, 0 FTE, and $0.0M.

Justification

The Coast Guard’s Reserve workforce is authorized the use of Tuition Assistance to advance the professional development of its members. This 

funding provides parity with the DOD Reserve workforce by providing educational benefits to the entire Reserve workforce, not just members on 

Active Duty orders.

Performance

The increase will enhance personnel readiness for a Reserve force that provides mission-ready personnel to augment active duty Coast Guard forces 

during times of crisis, domestically or worldwide. Additionally, this initiative is critical to recruiting and retaining as the Coast Guard seeks to close 

the Reserve workforce gap.

Program Change 15 – Fast Response Cutter (FRC) Follow-On:

Description

The FY 2020 request includes an increase of 181 positions, 112 FTE, and $24.3M. The request funds personnel and Operations and Maintenance

• FRC O&M for Hulls 37-41: Provides O&M for FRC Hulls to be homeported in Galveston, Texas; Key West, Florida; and Apra Harbor, Guam.

• FRC Crews for Hulls 39-43: Provides crews for FRC Hulls to be homeported in Key West, Florida and Apra Harbor, Guam.
U.S. Coast Guard Operations and Support

USCG-O&S-28

• FRC Follow-On Support for Hulls 39-43: Provides personnel for shore-side support of FRC Hulls 39-43 to be homeported in Key West, Florida 

and Apra Harbor, Guam.

Justification

The FRC is the replacement for the 110-foot Island Class patrol boat that is past its designed service life. This request begins funding operation and 

maintenance of newly delivered FRCs.

Performance

The FRC is more capable than the 110-foot patrol boat with advanced electronics and enhanced operational capabilities. This funding improves and 

expands the Coast Guard’s capability to secure the U.S. border and approaches, disrupt and dismantle transnational criminal organizations and other 

illicit actors, prevent unlawful immigration, and enhance national preparedness. 

Program Change 16 – HC-130J Aircraft Follow-On:

Description

The FY 2020 request includes an increase of 40 positions, 37 FTE, and $8.1M. The request funds personnel, operation and maintenance, and support 

for the twelfth HC-130J aircraft. The request also funds an increase of mission system instructors at the Aviation Training Center (ATC) in Mobile, 

Alabama. The base for this program is 0 positions, 0 FTE, and $0.0M.

Justification

The request supports Air Station Kodiak’s transition from the HC-130H to the HC-130J. Fleet transitions require additional instructors at ATC to 

train aircrews to operate and maintain mission systems associated with HC-130J.

Performance

The HC-130J provides increased aircraft capability with reduced maintenance costs compared to the HC-130H. Fleet transition to the new integrated 

sensor and mission system package provides increased search, surveillance, detection, and communication capabilities but requires additional 

training for operators to fully utilize the capabilities of the system. 

Program Change 17 – Human Capital and Support Infrastructure:

Description

The FY 2020 request includes an increase of 31 positions, 22 FTE, and $16.8M. Coast Guard missions, and support of those missions, drive human 

capital and support infrastructure requirements. This funding provides improvements to enterprise-wide support, including the transition to electronic 

health records (EHR). The request also funds training and support to the Coast Guard Reserve. The base for this program is 0 positions, 0 FTE, and 

$0.0M with the exception of support for the Reserve force, for which the base is 416 positions, 409 FTE, and $117.7M.

Justification

Coast Guard clinics continue to utilize paper records for personal medical record keeping. The Coast Guard’s transition to the Military Health System 
U.S. Coast Guard Operations and Support

USCG-O&S-29

(MHS) Genesis software architecture, the same core EHR system utilized by Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) and Department of Defense

(DOD), will provide electronic health records and interagency capability with VA and DOD systems. Additionally, this request implements the FY 

2015 NDAA mandate to establish a Credentialing, Certification, and Licensure (CCL) program for service members. Finally, the request ensures 

annual Reserve force training requirements are met. Failure to maintain an adequate Reserve force in garrison negatively impacts the Coast Guard’s 

ability to respond to surge operational requirements for contingency response.

Performance

Investments in human capital and support infrastructure address the erosion of readiness of the workforce and meet the needs to the total mission 

ready workforce, including active duty, Reserve, and civilian personnel.

Program Change 18 – Increase Counterintelligence Infrastructure:

Description

The FY 2020 request includes an increase of 5 positions, 3 FTE, and $1.1M. The request increases the Technical Surveillance Countermeasures 

(TSCM) team baseline as part of the larger DHS-wide strategy to expand the current ability to identify, deceive, exploit, or disrupt the efforts of 

Foreign Intelligence Entities (FIE) using technical means to gather intelligence. Teams of personnel will travel to likely targeted locations with 

specialized equipment that locate FIE technical means. The base for this program is 2 positions, 2 FTE, and $19.7M.

Justification

The Coast Guard does not have the capacity to provide surveys for potentially affected spaces. The additional personnel and equipment will improve 

the Coast Guard’s ability to defend against FIE collection. This is part of the DHS-wide strategy to build the Department’s ability to identify and 

disrupt FIE intelligence gathering.

Performance

The Coast Guard’s single TSCM team currently in operation can provide 15 scheduled surveys in potentially impacted spaces, due to the amount of 

ad hoc requests responded to per year. The additional positions will allow the Coast Guard to triple TSCM survey capacity. 

Program Change 19 – Increase Counterintelligence Personnel and Mission Support:

Description

The FY 2020 request includes an increase of 1 position, 0 FTE, and $71,000. The request increases counterintelligence personnel by one analyst 

dedicated to cybersecurity counterintelligence threats. The base for this program is 2 positions, 2 FTE, and $19.7M.

Justification

The Coast Guard and other DHS components have been the targets of infiltration and suspected theft of policies, plans, and proprietary documents by 

foreign entities using the cyber domain. This is a part of a larger DHS-wide strategy to build the Department’s ability to educate potential targets of 

these activities, as well as detect potential incidents of infiltration and provide descriptions of these incidents to the DHS Counterintelligence 
U.S. Coast Guard Operations and Support

USCG-O&S-30

Directorate for further action. 

Performance

The addition of personnel increases the ability to recognize, detect specific cyber threats related to Foreign Intelligence Entities (FIE) 

counterintelligence activities, and provide information to facilitate a response to threats through a unified effort across the Department.

Program Change 20 – Information Technology Streamlining:

Description

The FY 2020 request includes an increase of 46 positions, 24 FTE, and a decrease of $3.7M. The request realizes savings through the planned 

disestablishment of the Differential Global Positioning System (DGPS) and enterprise server consolidations. The personnel increase is achieved 

through the Command, Control, Communications, Computers, and Information Technology (C4IT) Service Center insourcing, replacing contractors 

with government FTE. The base for this program is 0 positions, 0 FTE, and $6.5M.

Justification

Efficiencies and consolidation efforts provide an architecture with improved configuration management, better availability, and adherence to security 

requirements for lower costs.

Performance

There will be no reduction in performance as this initiative sheds outdated, underutilized, and costly platforms to ensure the continued and expanded 

use of critical IT platforms such as remote access and mobility applications. 

Program Change 21 – MILSATCOM Obsolete Equipment Replacement:

The FY 2020 request includes an increase of 0 positions, 0 FTE, and $6.9M. The request continues the Mobile User Objective System (MUOS) 

integration on assets with existing Military Satellite Communications (MILSATCOM) Ultra High Frequency (UHF) communication capabilities. 

MILSATCOM provides a reliable means of communication in theater, disaster areas, and remote latitudes, interoperability with DOD, and also 

permits consistent data exchange for maritime domain awareness (MDA) and law enforcement missions. The base for this program is 0 positions, 0 

FTE, and $9.3M.

Justification

The existing MILSATCOM UHF follow-on system is beyond its service life and is experiencing system degradation and performance issues. 

Obsolete equipment on all aircraft and surface assets more than 110-feet in length, as well as shore command and control facilities, must be replaced.

Performance

Operational assets that do not integrate to MUOS will lose MILSATCOM UHF communication capabilities in theater, in disaster areas, and in 

remote latitudes, including loss of interoperability with DOD. By the end of CY 2024, MILSATCOM UHF equipment (e.g., satellites) will become 
U.S. Coast Guard Operations and Support

USCG-O&S-31

obsolete in that the equipment will cease to exist.

Program Change 22 – Maritime Safety, Security, and Commerce:

Description

The FY 2020 request includes an increase of 27 positions, 20 FTE, and $6.2M. The request provides funding and personnel to strengthen the Coast 

Guard’s marine safety program through improved marine inspector training, establishment of a third party oversight and auditing program, expansion 

of the marine inspector workforce, and improved accession opportunities for marine inspectors. 

Justification

Following reviews of the tragic loss of the commercial vessel EL FARO, the maritime community considered a number of safety protocols, 

inspection standards, and regulatory oversight initiatives. National Transportation Safety Board and Coast Guard investigations of the incident 

identified areas for improvement and provided recommendations to prevent a similar incident from occurring. The enhancements targeted through 

this request primarily address those concerns. 

Performance

The increase of marine inspectors and modernization of training are the initial steps to address capability gaps identified in the findings of the EL 

FARO investigation. Further, the request funds the expansion of the Maritime Academy Graduate program, augmenting the marine inspector 

workforce with credentialed mariners. Finally, this request provides funding for personnel and operating costs to establish a third-party oversight

program to improve oversight of third-party inspectors who perform work on the Coast Guard’s behalf for the commercial vessel fleet.

Program Change 23 – National Security Cutter (NSC) Follow-On:

Description

The FY 2020 request includes an increase of 199 positions, 110 FTE, and $14.4M. The request funds personnel for the crew of the ninth National 

Security Cutter (NSC), shore-side maintenance teams to conduct vessel, electronics systems and weapons maintenance, as well as tactical cryptologic 

deployers operating and maintaining the tactical cryptologic systems on NSCs, which will be homeported in Charleston, South Carolina. The base for

Justification

The NSC is replacing the legacy High Endurance Cutter (WHEC), which is beyond its designed service life. This request begins funding operation 

and maintenance of newly produced NSCs.

Performance

The NSC is more capable than the WHEC with advanced electronics, cryptological, communications, and operational capabilities. This funding 

improves and expands the Coast Guard’s capability to secure the U.S. border and approaches, disrupt and dismantle transnational criminal 

organizations and other illicit actors, prevent unlawful immigration, and enhance national preparedness. 
U.S. Coast Guard Operations and Support

USCG-O&S-32

Program Change 24 – Offshore Patrol Cutter (OPC) Follow-On:

Description

The FY 2020 request includes an increase of 52 positions, 31 FTE, and $6.2M. The request funds personnel for a portion of the crew of the first 

Offshore Patrol Cutter (OPC) to be homeported in Los Angeles/Long Beach, California, shore-side personnel to develop operational doctrine and 

qualification standards for the new class of cutter, and shore-side personnel to staff the shore-side maintenance team to conduct vessel, electronics 

systems, and weapons maintenance. The base for this program is 0 positions, 0 FTE, and $0.0M.

Justification

The OPC is replacing the legacy Medium Endurance Cutters (WMEC), which are beyond their designed service lives. This request begins funding 

crew and shore-side maintenance personnel for newly produced OPCs.

Performance

The OPC is more capable than the WMEC with advanced electronics, communications, and operational capabilities. This funding improves and 

expands the Coast Guard’s capability to secure the U.S. border and approaches, disrupt and dismantle transnational criminal organizations and other 

illicit actors, prevent unlawful immigration, and enhance national preparedness.

Program Change 25 – Rescue & Survival and Training Equipment Refresh:

Description

The FY 2020 request includes an increase of 0 positions, 0 FTE, and $6.3M. The request increases funds to purchase and replace personal protective 

equipment for Coast Guard operational personnel and upgrades training equipment at the Aviation Technical Training Center (ATTC) in Elizabeth 

City, North Carolina.

is critical to ensuring that Coast Guard members are protected from unnecessary harm while performing missions.
U.S. Coast Guard Operations and Support

USCG-O&S-33

Program Change 26 – Restoring Depot Readiness:

Description

The FY 2020 request includes an increase of 0 positions, 0 FTE, and $10.0M to begin to restore readiness. This request helps to begin to restore 

vessel and aircraft readiness and address critical infrastructure technology (IT) maintenance and inventory backlogs. Years under the Non-Defense 

Budget Control Act (BCA) caps have forced the Service to defer maintenance on the surface and aviation fleets and IT to fund critical frontline 

operations. Further, as assets age, addressing equipment and system obsolescence becomes more challenging and costly. Maintaining an adequate 

inventory of replacement parts becomes increasingly expensive each year purchasing is delayed.

Justification

This funding directly impacts the execution of Coast Guard missions through the readiness of its surface and aviation fleet. Without funding, 

maintenance backlogs and inventory shortfalls will continue to increase. In the last two years, the Coast Guard has lost the equivalent of three years’ 

worth of major cutter operational days and 14 MH-65Cs due to unplanned maintenance and lack of spare parts inventory. Deferring maintenance 

accelerates the materiel degradation of vessels and aircraft already operating well beyond their planned service lives, decreases readiness to complete 

missions, erodes operational effectiveness when planned maintenance turns into unplanned maintenance during an operational period, and increases 

operational-risk. Additionally, this request funds necessary IT network infrastructure maintenance (e.g., computers, hardware, servers, routers, 

switches, etc.) and costs, which support mission essential systems necessary for the Coast Guard to operate, defend and maintain the Coast Guard’s 

portion of the DOD Information Network (DODIN). These upgrades are needed to maintain compliance with DOD cybersecurity requirements and 

effectively execute Coast Guard missions. 

Performance

This funding restocks critical spare parts inventories at the surface and aviation logistics centers to reduce the number of lost operational days caused 

by unplanned maintenance. As the legacy surface and aviation fleets continue to operate, maintaining these assets has become increasingly 

expensive. Without this funding, the Coast Guard will continue to incur lost operational hours due to unplanned maintenance. With adequate depot 

maintenance relief, the Coast Guard can begin to address the erosion of readiness that has resulted from lost buying power due to BCA caps.

Program Change 27 – Shore Facility Follow-On:

Description

The FY 2020 request includes an increase of 6 positions, 4 FTE, and $5.3M. The request funds the operation and maintenance of recapitalized shore 

facilities scheduled for completion prior to and during 2020. This funding request is necessary for energy, utility services, and routine repairs. The 

request also includes funding for maintenance and repairs (e.g., preventive and emergency maintenance, scheduled inspections, etc.) anticipated 

throughout the life of each new Coast Guard facility. The base for this program is 0 positions, 0 FTE, and $0.0M.

The request provides the resources required to operate and maintain new and improved facilities completed under the following Procurement, 

Construction, and Improvement (PC&I) projects:
U.S. Coast Guard Operations and Support

USCG-O&S-34

• Coast Guard Yard Drydock Facilities;

• Sector Field Office Galveston Fast Response Cutter Homeport Facilities;

PPA Level I Description 

The Military Pay and Allowances PPA funds expenses related to compensation and benefits for active duty military personnel. This PPA includes 

pay, allowances, employer’s share of the Federal Insurance Contribution Act (FICA), Social Security credits, and other expenses associated with 

compensating military personnel. Costs related to compensation are calculated by using the Coast Guard’s Standard Personnel Cost (SPC) tables. 

These tables are updated annually and provide a detailed calculation for each position (e.g., rank/rate and location in the United States or outside of 

the country). Medical costs and permanent change of station (PCS) expenses are calculated based on actuarial factors and historic precedent. The FY 

2020 Budget includes a 3.1% pay increase for military personnel.

The Coast Guard was founded as a military, multi-mission, maritime service. Active duty military personnel ensure the Service remains agile, 

adaptable, and ready to serve the Nation’s maritime interests across a range of dynamic operational environments. As members of one of the Nation’s 

five Armed Forces and the only military service within the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), Coast Guard military personnel conduct 

missions that protect the public and U.S. interests in the Nation’s inland waters, ports, waterways, coastal regions, territorial seas, and on the high 

seas.

As part of the FY 2020 transition to DHS Common Appropriation Structure (CAS), all personnel costs for Research & Development (R&D) were 

transferred from the R&D appropriation to the O&S appropriation.

Explanation of Pay Cost Driver

Military Pay: Military and Allowances includes salary, benefits, and housing allowances for military personnel. The FTE change includes the

annualization of FY 2019 initiatives and FY 2020 initiatives, including follow-on requirements for new assets delivered via the Coast Guard’s 

acquisition programs (e.g., FRC, OPC, NSC, and HC-130J), increases in the cybersecurity and marine safety workforce, and the transfer of R&D 

personnel into O&S as part of the FY 2020 CAS transition. The FTE change also reflects decreases due to scheduled asset decommissionings in FY 

2020 (e.g., WHEC and WPBs). The rate increase was primarily a result of the FY 2019 military pay raise of 2.6%, the FY 2020 military pay raise of 

3.1%, and an increase to military personnel basic allowance for housing (BAH).

Other Costs: This includes service expenses for military personnel, including reimbursable detail for Navy chaplains and special reimbursements for 

Auxiliarists.

Explanation of Non Pay Cost Drivers 

Military Health Care: The request is derived from actuarial projections of medical costs to support military personnel. This reflects cost changes 

that affect all FTE. The increase is primarily driven by the Electronic Health Records Acquisition funds request.

Permanent Change of Station: The request is refined from historical analysis of costs associated with moving military personnel between duty 

stations. 

Other Costs: The request reflects miscellaneous military support costs, including leased housing and initial uniform clothing allotments for new 

recruits.

PPA Level I Description 

The Civilian Pay and Benefits PPA funds expenses related to compensation and entitlements for Federal civilian employees. The workforce is 

composed of General Schedule (GS) personnel, Administrative Law (AL) Judges, Senior Executive Service (SES) personnel, personnel whose 

salaries are Administratively Determined (AD) (e.g., Coast Guard Academy civilian faculty members), Wage Grade (WG) positions employed in 

industrial operations, and “Non-Ceiling” (NC) employees (e.g., cooperative education students, student aides, and Federal junior fellows). The FY 

2020 Budget also includes funding for retirement contributions for the Federal Employee Retirement System (FERS).

Civilian personnel are an integral part of the Coast Guard and vital to execution of its statutory missions. The Coast Guard continues to complement 

its military workforce by recruiting diverse, well-educated, and dedicated civilians needed to meet current and future demands.

As part of the FY 2020 transition to DHS Common Appropriation Structure (CAS), all personnel costs for Research & Development (R&D) were 

transferred from the R&D appropriation to the O&S appropriation.

Explanation of Pay Cost Drivers

Civilian Pay and Allowances: Civilian Pay and Allowances includes salary, benefits, awards, overtime, and other personnel compensation for 

civilian personnel. The FTE change reflects the annualization of FY 2019 initiatives, and FY 2020 initiatives, including the transfer of R&D 

personnel to O&S, acquisition support personnel, human capital investments, cybersecurity and IT infrastructure enhancements, and Counter 

Transnational Criminal Organization (TCO) initiatives; and decreases due to efficiencies. The rate increase of civilian pay was driven by the increase 

for the Federal Employee Retirement System benefits (2.3% for most employees; 3.3% for law enforcement personnel). 

Other Costs: This includes civilian special personal services payments and benefits to civilian personnel who incur a civilian salary reduction when 

activated by the Reserve component.

Explanation of Non Pay Cost Drivers

Training and Education: Funding supports formal training, including temporary duty entitlements (e.g., per diem) and travel costs for military and 

civilian personnel. The change is primarily driven by the implementation of Credentialing, Certification, and Licensing (CCL) requirements outlined 

in the 2015 NDAA to establish a credentialing and licensing program for service members. The change also reflects both one-time and recurring 

training costs associated with bringing new assets (e.g., NSC, OPC, FRC, and HC-130J) into service, including training requirements for the crews 

and support personnel. 

Recruiting and Training Centers: Funding supports the operating and maintenance expenses for Coast Guard training and recruiting centers. It also 

includes funding for tuition, formal training, and associated costs. The change is primarily driven by NSC and FRC follow-on funding for training as 

well as the increase of instructors at accession points and “A” and “C” schools provided at Coast Guard training centers.

Total – Non Pay Cost Drivers $897,171 $907,894 $927,674 $19,780

Explanation of Non Pay Cost Drivers

Area Commands: The request funds all units, facilities, and activities that are under the direct operational control of the Coast Guard’s Atlantic and 

Pacific Area Commanders. This change reflects the follow-on funding for the ninth NSC in Atlantic Area as well as the annualization of FY 2019 

initiatives, the initial crew for the first OPC, and the decommissioning of one WHEC in Pacific Area.

District Area Commands: The request funds all units, facilities, and activities that are under the direct operational control of the Coast Guard’s 

District Commanders. The increase is primarily driven by follow-on funding for the FRC and HC-130J aircraft. The decrease reflects the 

centralization of funds associated with the Aviation Life Support Equipment Efficiency and the annualization of HC-130H decommissionings in FY 

2019.

Headquarters: The request funds Coast Guard Headquarters and centralized activities, which support field operations. The change reflects increases 

for follow-on funding to facilitate the efficient execution and oversight of NSC, OPC, and FRC operations, including shore facility follow-on for new 

assets, classified terminals for cybersecurity teams, the marine inspector workforce redesign contract support, rescue & survival equipment to be 

distributed to field units, and counter transnational criminal organization initiatives (e.g., support for FRCs and Digital Media Exploitation terminal 

recapitalization).

Logistics and Service Centers: The request funds all units, facilities, and activities under the direct control of Coast Guard Operational 

Commanders. The change is primarily driven by the costs for modernization of marine inspector training, consolidation of funding for the Aviation 

Life Support Equipment Efficiency, and follow-on funding for the FRC, OPC, and NSC.

Working Capital Fund: The request funds the Coast Guard’s contribution to the DHS Working Capital Fund (WCF). In addition, the change 

reflects the net decreases to WCF bills, including transfers to the DHS Chief Information Officer (CIO) and DHS Chief Procurement Officer (CPO). 

Other Costs: The request funds centrally managed services provided to the entire Coast Guard, such as GSA rent (other than St. Elizabeths, which is 

paid out of the Working Capital Fund) and ammunition replenishment. The change is primarily driven by GSA rent increases and the transfer of RDC 

rent into O&S appropriation to align with DHS CAS.

PPA Level I Description 

The Intermediate and Depot Level Maintenance PPA funds the Coast Guard’s depot level maintenance for the Service’s vessels, aircraft, and shore 

facilities. This PPA also funds maintenance and support of enterprise IT software systems, enterprise communication/network services, standard 

workstations, the Coast Guard Data Network (CGOne), cybersecurity, satellite and data communications, and other Coast Guard-wide Command, 

Control, Communication, Computer, and Information Technology (C4IT) systems. The Coast Guard maintains its vessels, aircraft, shore 

infrastructure, and C4IT systems using a blend of organic maintenance and repair infrastructure, and contracted maintenance activities. 

A mature project planning and execution program exists within the Coast Guard to provide routine organizational level and depot level maintenance. 

Where expertise or infrastructure does not exist organically within the Service, the Coast Guard uses contracted resources to provide the requisite 

maintenance support.

Total – Non Pay Cost Drivers $1,415,217 $1,442,048 $1,478,270 $36,222

Explanation of Non Pay Cost Drivers

Aeronautical Depot Level Maintenance: The request funds the Coast Guard’s depot level maintenance for the Service’s aircraft using a blend of 

organic maintenance and repair infrastructure and contracted maintenance activities. The change is primarily driven by the continued effort to address 

aircraft Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) compliance requirements and replacement of obsolete aircraft equipment, as well as funding to begin 

to address the spare parts shortfall in the aviation fleet. The overall decrease includes the reduction of one-time FY 2019 costs associated with FAA 

compliance requirements and replacement of obsolete equipment.

Electronics Maintenance: The request funds the Coast Guard’s depot level maintenance for the Service’s C4IT systems using a blend of organic 

maintenance and repair infrastructure and contracted maintenance activities. The change is primarily driven by increased airtime for cutter underway 

connectivity, Mobile User Objective System (MUOS) integration with existing Military Satellite Communications (MILSATCOM) Ultra High 

Frequency (UHF) communications capabilities, and information display improvements to Coast Guard Command Centers. The change also includes 

increases for electronics depot maintenance requirements driven by cybersecurity enhancements for the Common IT Platform, classified terminals for 

the cybersecurity workforce, follow-on funding for FRCs, and decreases associated with IT efficiencies. 

Civil/Ocean Engineering and Shore Facilities Depot Level Maintenance: The request funds the Coast Guard’s depot level maintenance for the 

Service’s shore infrastructure using a blend of organic maintenance and repair infrastructure and contracted maintenance activities. The change is 

primarily driven by follow-on funding to maintain and operate recapitalized shore facilities in support of operational assets delivered in FY 2020.

Vessel Depot Level Maintenance: The request funds the Coast Guard’s depot level maintenance for the Service’s vessels using a blend of organic 

maintenance and repair infrastructure and contracted maintenance activities. The change is primarily driven by follow-on funding for the 

annualization of FY 2019 NSC follow-on and FRC follow-on and follow-on funding for the current FRC request, as well as funding to begin to 

address the spare parts shortfall in the surface fleet causing a backlog of deferred maintenance due to lack of spare parts inventory.

PPA Level I Description 

The Reserve Training PPA funds the training, operation, and administration of the Coast Guard Reserve Program and ensures the readiness of a 

7,000-member Coast Guard Reserve, which provides mission-ready personnel to augment active duty Coast Guard forces during times of crisis, 

domestically or worldwide.

Coast Guard Reserve Forces provide qualified and trained personnel for active duty operations in support of a contingency event, conflict, national 

emergency, or natural and man-made disasters. Reservists maintain their readiness through mobilization and training exercises alongside regular, 

active duty Coast Guard members during routine and emergency operations. Reservists continue to serve as a cost-effective surge force to enhance 

the Nation’s resilience to disasters.

The FY2019 President’s Budget transferred Reserve Training from a stand-alone appropriation to a PPA under O&S as part of the CAS transition. It 

was a stand-alone appropriation in the FY 2018 Omnibus Appropriations Act.

*The Coast Guard is transitioning to the Procurement, Construction, and Improvements appropriation in FY 2019 from the former Acquisitions, Construction, and Improvements appropriation. Funding amounts in this and all other tables are presented using the new budget 

structure.

The U.S. Coast Guard’s Procurement, Construction and Improvements (PC&I) appropriation provides for the acquisition, procurement, construction, 

rebuilding, and improvement of vessels, aircraft, shore facilities and military housing, aids to navigation systems and facilities, and command, 

control, communications and computer systems and related equipment. 

Funds appropriated for PC&I are managed by Coast Guard acquisition project managers who oversee these projects and apply best practices, in 

accordance with the Coast Guard’s Major Systems Acquisition Manual (MSAM), applicable Department of Homeland Security (DHS) management 

directives, and DHS’s Financial Management Policy Manual, to optimize the return on recapitalization investments. Through processes documented 

in the MSAM, acquisition managers follow a continuum of activities ranging from pre-acquisition concept development to deployment and 

sustainment. Activities and documentation produced throughout the acquisition lifecycle inform budget requests and budget-related project activities.

The FY 2020 Budget includes $1.2B. The following is the funding for each Program, Project, and Activity (PPA) within the PC&I appropriation: 

• Vessels - $792.2M;

• Aircraft - $199.6M;

• Other Acquisition Programs - $69.3M; and

• Shore Facilities and Aids to Navigation - $173.6M.

PPA Description

The Vessels PPA provides funding to recapitalize and/or make capital improvements to Coast Guard cutters and boats. With many of the Coast 

Guard’s surface assets operating beyond their design service life; recapitalization and sustainment projects are critical to ensuring continued mission 

effectiveness and readiness of the fleet. The FY 2020 Budget continues efforts that will lead to construction of the first Polar Security Cutter (PSC); 

funds construction of the third Offshore Patrol Cutter (OPC); supports Survey and Design for emerging life-cycle event driven maintenance on 

cutters and boats; funds continued work towards potential solutions for the aging Inland River and Construction Tender fleets; and continues the 

National Security Cutter (NSC), Fast Response Cutter (FRC), Cutter Boats, and sustainment programs on schedule. The Coast Guard fleet of cutters 

and boats supported by this PPA collectively perform all 11 statutory Coast Guard missions in the offshore, coastal, and inland operational areas. 

The Coast Guard’s future fleet is replacing the aging High and Medium Endurance Cutters, Island Class Patrol Boats, Inland River and Construction 

Tenders, and legacy Heavy Polar Icebreakers. These modern assets will provide improved endurance, speed, sea-keeping, surveillance, icebreaking 

capabilities, and persistent presence in the offshore area of responsibility.

Survey and Design - Vessels and Boats N/A Non-Major Procurement Non-IT No $4,500 $500 $500

Investment Description

This investment funds multi-year engineering survey and design work in direct support of emerging In-Service Vessel Sustainment (ISVS) projects. 

Preliminary survey and design work is essential to properly plan and scope sustainment availabilities, such as Midlife Maintenance Availabilities 

(MMA), Mission Effectiveness Projects (MEP), and Service Life Extension Projects (SLEP). As in-service vessels continue to age, this program 

conducts detailed hull condition surveys, along with engineering design work useful in identifying and planning future projects. FY 2020 funding

supports initiatives related to conducting a MMA on CGC HEALY (Medium Icebreaker), CGC MACKINAW (Great Lakes Icebreaker), and the 175-foot 

Coastal Buoy Tenders (WLM). 

Justification

CGC HEALY serves as a platform for supporting missions primarily in the Arctic region, including search and rescue, ship escort, environmental 

protection, enforcement of laws and treaties, and Arctic research. CGC MACKINAW serves as the Coast Guard’s most capable icebreaking platform 

on the Great Lakes in addition to conducting maintenance of aids to navigation, law enforcement, search and rescue, and marine environmental 

protection. The 175-foot Coastal Buoy Tenders support maintenance of aids to navigation, law enforcement, ice operations, search and rescue, and 

marine environmental protection in areas that are otherwise inaccessible by other assets. 

Funds requested will be used to assess potential options based on inspections of hull, mechanical, weapons, and electrical systems and subsystems. 

Specifically, assessments will evaluate system suitability for possible future sustainment projects.

47-foot MLB SLEP NO24-000006384 2 Procurement Non-IT Yes $0 $5,250 $6,600

Investment Description

This investment supports program management activities and continues Service Life Extension Project (SLEP) efforts on the 47-foot Motor Life 

Boats (MLBs). 

Justification

The fleet of 47-foot MLBs, constructed from 1997 to 2003 and designed for a 25-year service life (2022-2028), have several critical systems 

becoming obsolete and difficult to support. Engineering evaluations identified the propulsion system (engines, reduction gears, and the integrated 

control system) and a variety of mission-specific equipment, as requiring recapitalization. Repairs and updates to these systems and components will 

prevent loss of operational readiness, stabilize maintenance costs, and extend the service life of the MLBs by 20 years.

FY 2018 Key Milestone Events 

• Completed engineering and pre-Request for Proposal (RFP) preparations on the 47-foot MLB SLEP.

FY 2019 Planned Key Milestone Events 

• Release the RFP and award the 47-foot MLB SLEP contract.

• Complete detail engineering design and start work on the first 47-foot MLB going through SLEP.

FY 2020 Planned Key Milestone Events 

• Continue engineering and production work on the 47-foot MLB SLEP.

• Initiate an operational assessment on the MLB SLEP first article.

U.S. Coast Guard Procurement, Construction, and Improvements

USCG – PC&I - 25

Justification

The In-Service Vessel Sustainment (ISVS) program provides program management and logistics support for life-cycle event vessel repair 

availabilities including MMAs and SLEPs on existing Coast Guard vessels. The investments listed above include vessel availabilities completed at 

the Coast Guard Yard.

MMAs ensure in-service vessels continue to meet their design service life through the recapitalization of hull, mechanical, electrical (HM&E) and 

electronic systems that have been identified as the highest contributors to maintenance costs and operational availability degradation. SLEPs increase 

in-service vessels service life without significantly modifying capabilities. Funding will support the following projects:

• 225-foot Ocean Going Buoy Tenders (WLBs): This class was placed in service in 1996 and was designed to meet a 30-year service life. 

Achieving that service life is predicated upon a mid-life availability to address obsolescence of select engineering systems. The ongoing WLB 

MMA includes a stability assessment; electrical load analysis; upgrades to the machinery control system, controllable pitch propeller system, and 

HVAC systems; topside preservation; overhauls of deck equipment and weight handling gear; and crew habitability updates to meet current 

standards. The MMA is planned for all 16 WLBs.

• 270-foot Medium Endurance Cutters (WMECs): This class began entering service in 1983 and underwent a MEP to address operational readiness 

degradation. FY 2020 funds support project planning, system evaluation and engineering analysis, and procurement for long lead time materials

(LLTM) and deep insurance spares. The SLEP is planned for up to nine WMECs.

FY 2018 Key Milestone Events 

• Completed production work on the fifth and sixth 140-foot WTGB SLEP and begin the seventh and eighth.

• Completed Phase 4 production work for EAGLE SLEP.

• Completed production work on the third 225-foot WLB MMA and begin production on the fifth and sixth.

• Began analyze/select phase documentation for the 270-foot WMEC SLEP.

FY 2019 Planned Key Milestone Events 

• Complete production work on the seventh and eighth 140-foot WTGB SLEP and begin production on the ninth.

• Complete production work on the fourth, fifth and sixth 225-foot WLBs MMA and begin production on the seventh.

National Security Cutter N024-000006369 1 Procurement Non-IT Yes $1,241,000 $65,000 $60,000

Investment Description

This investment supports Post Delivery Activities (PDA) for the seventh through eleventh NSCs that are necessary to make these cutters ready for 

operations, as well as class-wide activities which include Test and Evaluation, program execution and support, and program close-out support to 

ensure an adequate and complete basis of technical and logistical material and information for full transition to sustainment.

Justification

These Legend Class NSCs are replacing the legacy High Endurance Cutters (WHECs), built between 1967 and 1972. Compared to WHECs, the 

NSCs provide increased endurance, intelligence, and maritime domain awareness capability in the offshore environment and better integration with 

Department of Defense operations. The NSC, along with the OPC, will comprise the Coast Guard’s offshore response capability for the next 40 

years, and is an essential element of DHS’s layered security posture. 

NSC missions are primarily focused on drug interdiction, fisheries enforcement, and defense readiness. NSCs also perform search and rescue; ports, 

waterways and coastal security; migrant interdiction; and serve as mobile command and control platforms for surge operations. Completion of the 

NSC program will improve long-term capacity and capability in the execution of long-range and extended Coast Guard mission assignments 

offshore.

will similarly operate in the coastal zone. FRC missions include: search and rescue; migrant interdiction; living marine resource enforcement; drug 

interdiction; and ports, waterways and coastal security. FRCs provide enhanced capabilities over the 110-foot Island Class patrol boats including 

improved C4ISR capability and interoperability; stern launch and recovery (through sea state 4) of a 40-knot, 7-meter Over-the-Horizon cutter boat; a 

remotely-operated, gyro-stabilized MK38 Mod 2/3 25mm main gun; improved sea keeping; and enhanced crew habitability.

Other capabilities include: 

• Shipboard migrant interdiction evolutions, including detection, tracking, interdiction, embarkation and disembarkation, administrative processing, 

and retention onboard; 

• Patrolling areas where suspected illegal migrant, drug, or fisheries activities may occur, and dispatching boarding teams to suspect vessels and 

subsequently escorting them to their final disposition; 

• Searching for, locating, and recovering distressed mariners, providing medical assistance or evacuation, and providing safe transport; and

• Controlling damage to distressed vessels and other property, providing dewatering equipment and mechanical assistance, and towing disabled 

vessels.

Cutter Boats N/A Non-Major Procurement Non-IT No $1,000 $5,000 $4,300

Investment Description

This investment supports the acquisition, development and management of production, delivery and warranty support for multi-mission cutter boats 

on NSCs, OPCs, FRCs, and support for in-service boat replacement. The boat acquisition program management office (PMO) provides centralized 

technical and acquisition support and expertise for both cutter boats and station response boats. Current active boat acquisition programs include 

Cutter Boat-Large, Over-The-Horizon (OTH), Long Range Interceptor (LRI), and Response Boat-Small.

Justification

The boat acquisition PMO ensures commonality across the operational community by supporting procurement of boats throughout the Coast Guard 

for use on newly acquired assets, as well as replacement boats for stations and in-service cutters. Given the expiration schedule of existing acquisition 

contracts, the PMO will initiate new contracts to develop the next generation of the OTH and LRI in order to align with cutter delivery schedules. 

The OTH is deployed on the NSC, FRC, legacy polar icebreakers, and WMEC, and will be the cutter boat for the OPC. The OTH is a single-engine, 

open-cabin boat that operates beyond sight of the parent cutter (over-the-horizon) to deploy boarding parties to pursue and interdict targets of interest, 

and perform search and rescue operations. 

The LRI is deployed on the NSC. The LRI is a dual-engine, enclosed-cabin boat that operates beyond sight of the parent cutter (over-the-horizon) 

with enhanced crew protection/comfort, greater storage capacity for longer duration missions, and increased capability for passenger and cargo 

transport.

Polar Security Cutter N024-000006381 1 Procurement Non-IT Yes $19,000 $750,000 $35,000

Investment Description

This investment supports program management and production activities associated with the Detail Design and Construction contract. Specifically, 

this funding supports the following: program management office support; logistics planning; cyber-security planning; system integration test 

planning, C4ISR support, project resident office support, Navy reimbursable technical support, and production activities.

Justification

To support national interests in the Polar Regions and provide assured surface presence in those ice-impacted waters, the Coast Guard is 

recapitalizing its heavy polar icebreaking fleet. The Program is pursuing efficient, timely, and cost-effective solutions towards this objective to 

manage and limit acquisition risks, optimize operational effectiveness, and minimize life-cycle costs. 

The Program entered the “Need” phase at Acquisition Decision Event (ADE-0) in July 2012, and transitioned to the “Analyze/Select” phase (ADE-1) 

in June 2014. In July 2016, the Coast Guard established an Integrated Program Office with the Navy to continue efforts to accelerate the construction 

timeline and leverage the expertise and best practices from shipbuilding programs in both services. Based on this collaboration and lessons learned by 

the Navy, the Program completed Industry Studies in 2018 to identify solutions to minimize cost, schedule, production, and technology risks. 

Industry Studies focused on leveraging industry perspectives, existing vessel designs, and use of mature technology, which informed the iterative 

development of the Polar Security Cutter system specification. In February 2018, the Program entered the “Obtain” phase (ADE-2A/B) and released 

a Request for Proposal (RFP) in March 2018 to award a contract for Detail Design & Construction in FY 2019.

Waterways Commerce Cutter N024-000006386 1 Procurement Non-IT Yes $26,100 $5,000 $2,500

Investment Description

The Waterways Commerce Cutter program will evaluate materiel and non-materiel options to replace the capabilities provided by the current fleet of 

inland tenders and barges commissioned between 1944 and 1990. The current fleet is comprised of 75-foot, 100-foot, and 160-foot Inland 

Construction Tenders; 65-foot and 100-foot Inland Buoy Tenders; and 65-foot and 75-foot River Buoy Tenders that collectively average over 55

years in age. Funding supports Program Management Office activities to evaluate replacement of this vital capability, including the potential for 

commercial services and alternative crewing options, as well as recapitalization alternatives.

Justification

These platforms that serve the Nation’s inland waterways and western rivers provide vital services to the Marine Transportation System, and have an 

important role in the movement of commerce by maintaining structures, beacons and buoys in the First, Fifth, Seventh, Eighth, Ninth, Thirteenth and 

Seventeenth Coast Guard Districts. In 2014 alone, approximately 600 million tons of cargo, worth an estimated $230B, moved through the Marine 

Transportation System in the inland waterways and western rivers. Mariners and the shipping industry depend on fixed and floating Aids to 

Navigation to safely navigate these waters and prevent accidents that could have significant environmental and/or economic impacts. 

In addition to age concerns and the associated equipment obsolescence issues, the legacy fleet presents other sustainment challenges, including 

hazardous materials as a result of the use of asbestos and lead paint during construction of these over 50 year old assets. Outdated technology and 

vessel designs have led to crew safety concerns, maintenance cost increases, and non-compliance with environmental regulations. Finally, the 

vessels’ configuration does not allow the assignment of mixed gender crews in accordance with the Coast Guard’s workforce goals.

Investment Description

This investment supports a multi-year SLEP for POLAR STAR, including program management activities, materials purchases, and the start of 

SLEP production work.

Justification

The Coast Guard’s two heavy polar icebreakers are over 43 years old and are well past their designed service life. Currently only one heavy polar 

icebreaker is in active service (POLAR STAR) with the other vessel (POLAR SEA) in an inactive status serving to provide specialty parts to help 

sustain POLAR STAR. To ensure POLAR STAR can continue to meet and support national interests in the Polar Regions and provide assured 

surface presence in those ice-impacted waters, the Coast Guard needs to maintain POLAR STAR’s ability to perform these missions while 

recapitalizing the heavy polar icebreaking fleet. Accordingly, this SLEP is intended to extend POLAR STAR’s service life so that it remains 

operational until delivery of the second new Polar Security Cutter.

PPA Description

The Aircraft PPA provides funding for recapitalization and sustainment of the Coast Guard’s fleet of fixed and rotary-wing aircraft.

The Coast Guard’s fleet of fixed and rotary-wing aircraft supported within this program collectively performs all Coast Guard missions in the 

offshore, coastal, and inland areas of responsibility. The land-based fixed-wing aircraft include the HC-144, HC-130H/J and HC-27J aircraft. The 

Coast Guard’s fleet of HC-144s and HC-27Js provide medium-range surveillance (MRS) fixed-wing capability. The Coast Guard’s fleet of existing 

HC-130Hs and HC-130Js provide long-range surveillance (LRS) fixed-wing capability. Each of these fixed-wing aircraft enables the Coast Guard to 

conduct airborne surveillance, detection, classification, and identification of vessels and other aircraft. 

The Coast Guard’s fleet of rotary-wing aircraft includes the MH-60 and MH-65 helicopters. The MH-60 is a medium-range recovery (MRR)

helicopter and the MH-65 is a short-range recovery (SRR) helicopter. Both aircraft are deployed from land-based air stations; the MH-65 is also 

deployed routinely aboard the Coast Guard’s fleet of NSCs, WHECs, and WMECs. Similarly, the Coast Guard will continue outfitting NSCs with

small Unmanned Aircraft Systems (sUAS) to fulfill unmanned air surveillance capability requirements.

PPA Description

The Other Acquisition Programs PPA includes funding to support initial acquisition, development, construction, or improvement of any end-use

system, hardware, software or equipment costing over $250,000, or $10M total project cost. In FY 2020, funding will also support continued 

progress on build-out of Command, Control, Communications, Computers, Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance (C4ISR) systems; CGLogistics Information Management System (CG-LIMS); and emerging Cyber and Enterprise Mission Platform projects. This PPA also provides 

funding for Program Oversight and Management (PO&M).

The Coast Guard leverages its C4ISR capability to effectively execute a broad mission set in immensely challenging operating environments. Assets

are able to receive, evaluate and act upon information obtained through the systems supported in this program. The C4ISR acquisition provides 

standardized capability to major cutters and aircraft, facilitating interoperability and information sharing inside and outside the Coast Guard. The CGLIMS acquisition replaces, modernizes and unifies redundant and obsolete logistics systems with a consolidated, centralized, and integrated IT

database system with enhanced configuration management, supply support, and improved financial accountability. The Cyber and Enterprise Mission 

Platform projects support replacement of the obsolete Maritime Security Risk Analysis Model (MSRAM) with a web-based application, start 

recapitalization of MILSATCOM capabilities at shore stations with the Mobile User Objective System (MUOS), and begin transition to a network 

infrastructure that supports operations in a secure mobile environment. PO&M is critical for oversight and efficient execution of Coast Guard’s 

acquisition programs.

Cyber and Enterprise Mission Platform - - Procurement IT - - - $14,200

Investment Description

This investment supports program management activities in support of the Enterprise Mission Platform (EMP); delivering operational and mission 

support capabilities for Command and Control, Communications, Computer, Cyber, and Intelligence (C5I). 

Justification

Cyber and EMP funding provides program management and logistics support for C5I capabilities spanning all Information Technology (IT) 

portfolios, including IT infrastructure, communications, cyber, navigation, and domain awareness. The following projects will be supported with FY 

2020 funding: 

• Mobile User Objective System (MUOS): This project starts recapitalization of the 40 existing MILSATCOM Ultra High Frequency (UHF) 

communication capabilities on Coast Guard shore installations with MUOS. Concurrently, an O&S effort is underway to recapitalize the aviation 

and afloat segments of MUOS. MILSATCOM provides a reliable means of communication in theater, disaster areas, remote latitudes, etc., and 

also permits consistent data exchange for maritime domain awareness (MDA) and DHS law enforcement missions. The existing MILSATCOM 

UHF system is beyond end of life and is beginning to experience system degradation. The system will be non-functional by 2024 and will be 

replaced by MUOS. Any assets that do not have MUOS will lose this capability entirely. 

• Maritime Security Risk Analysis Model (MSRAM): This is a highly customized suite of risk tools developed in 2006. System hardware and 

software recapitalization will restore system capacity while transitioning functionality into a web based application. Meeting current 

cybersecurity standards and eliminating vulnerabilities is a key component of this effort. The funding required in FY 2020 is sufficient to 

complete this recapitalization effort; no additional out-year funding is anticipated. 

• Mobility 2.0: This project begins the transition to a network infrastructure that supports the ability to operate in a secure mobile environment. 

Efforts will focus on both hardware and software to include upgrades to the Marine Information for Safety and Law Enforcement (MISLE) 
Procurement, Construction, and Improvements Other Acquisition Programs - PPA

USCG – PC&I - 94

application. As currently architected, MISLE hampers the ability of field personnel to operate in a secure mobile environment. The existing 

MISLE software prevents the merging of duplicate vessel and facility files, and was designed prior to established standards for delivering data on 

a mobile platform.

Construction Description

This program supports shore facility infrastructure modifications, upgrades, new construction, and real property and land acquisition associated with 

homeporting new or modified cutters, boats, and aircraft. Funding in FY 2020 will complete the following facility upgrades and infrastructure 

improvements: 

• $25.0M (estimated) to complete improvements to support the OPC and FRC homeport at Kodiak, AK: The homeport will accommodate two 

OPCs and maintenance on up to three FRCs. The funding will complete the homeport buildout in Kodiak, which was supported by funding in FY 

2017, FY 2018, and requested in FY 2019. Funding will provide shore-side facilities and a cutter maintenance building. Kodiak is essential to the 

overall operational force lay-down and needs to be modified in order to accommodate the OPCs and FRCs. FY 2020 funding provides facilities to 

meet asset delivery schedules and threshold requirements of the OPC and FRC including operational needs, crewing status, and maintenance 

schedules. 

• $47.0M (estimated) for waterfront, shore-side facility, utilities, and associated base infrastructure improvements to support the FRC homeport at 

Boston, MA: The homeport will accommodate threshold requirements for six FRCs. The funding will support the design and construction of 

homeport facility additions, improvements, and renovations; improvements such as electrical and shore-tie upgrades; dredging to accommodate 

deeper drafts where necessary; structural improvements to the piers and wharfs to accommodate larger loads; relocation and/or incorporation of 

existing operational and support functions, both waterfront and shore side, for proximity and constructability; and shore-side facilities for storage, 

maintenance, and other in-port activities associated with the arrival of the new FRCs. 

• $20.6M (estimated) for waterfront, shore-side facility, utilities, and associated base infrastructure improvements to support the FRC homeport at 

Sitka, AK: The funding will support the design and construction of homeport facilities and waterfront structures including maintenance facilities, 

piers, and floating docks; improvements such as electrical and shore-tie upgrades; and dredging to accommodate deeper drafts where necessary. 
U.S. Coast Guard Procurement, Construction, and Improvements

USCG – PC&I - 106

FY 2020 funding provides facilities to meet hybrid maintenance model threshold requirements for one FRC including shore-tie requirements, 

operational needs, crewing, and maintenance schedules.

• $22.5M for waterfront, shore-side facility, utilities, and associated base infrastructure improvements to support the FRC Recurring Depot 

Availability Program (RDAP) at the Coast Guard Yard in Baltimore, MD: This funding will support design and construction of waterfront and 

shore-side infrastructure to enable the CG Yard to perform depot maintenance on FRCs. The infrastructure will consist of piers and waterfront 

improvements to support travel lift operations and construction of a facility capable of supporting industrial maintenance activities. The CG Yard 

has built, repaired, and renovated cutters and boats since 1899, and is the Coast Guard’s only major maintenance facility for surface assets. This 

funding will enable the Coast Guard to initiate an organic depot level maintenance program, reducing dependence on contracted maintenance.

• $1.5M (estimated) to provide program support and engineering, environmental, real property, and feasibility studies for future-year facilities 

projects covered under this acquisition program: FY 2020 funding is necessary to establish a five-year window of planning documents in order to 

properly budget for force location decisions in association with future asset deliveries; more effectively integrate siting decisions for different 

classes of cutters and aircraft over the long-term planning horizon; and cover any support contracts necessary to maintain the day-to-day 

functions, oversight, support, and management of this appropriation.

Justification

This program supports shore facility infrastructure modifications, upgrades, new construction, and real property and land acquisition associated with 

homeporting new or modified cutters, boats, and aircraft. The program also supports infrastructure modifications, upgrades, and new construction to 

provide logistics, maintenance, and training support for new or modified cutters, boats, and aircraft.

The U.S. Coast Guard’s Research and Development (R&D) appropriation sustains critical mission capabilities through applied research, 

development, testing, and evaluation (RDT&E) programs. Several R&D programs include partnerships with the Department of Homeland Security 

(DHS), the Department of Defense (DOD), universities, and other Federal and private research organizations. 

The R&D program is comprised of the Office of RDT&E at Coast Guard Headquarters in Washington, D.C. and the Research and Development 

Center (RDC) at New London, Connecticut. The RDC is the Coast Guard’s sole facility performing applied R&D experimentation and 

demonstrations. R&D activities sustain program infrastructure and core capabilities, knowledge, skills, experience, and facilities to give the Coast 

Guard a strong evidence-based foundation for operational and capital investment decision-making. These activities include formulation and oversight 

of cooperative agreements with relevant professionals in the public and private sectors, such as University Affiliated Research Centers (UARC) and 

Federally Funded Research & Development Centers (FFRDC). The cooperative agreements promote collaboration and leverage expertise to further 

develop techniques, methods, hardware, and systems that directly contribute to increasing productivity and effectiveness of Coast Guard mission 

execution.

The FY 2020 Budget includes necessary resources to develop technologies and systems that improve operational presence and response, as well as 

perform technology assessments to inform the early stages of the acquisition process. Of the funding, $0.5M is derived from the Oil Spill Liability 

Trust Fund as authorized by the Oil Pollution Act of 1990 (33 USC § 2701-2761).

Program Change 1 - Eliminate Joint Maritime Test Facility Support:

Description

The FY 2020 Budget includes a reduction of $0.1M for the Joint Maritime Test Facility (JMTF). The base for the program is $0.1M for the in-situ 

burning research. 

Justification

The JMTF is a joint Navy and Coast Guard facility located on Sand Island in Mobile, Alabama. The facility is primarily a large-scale marine in-situ 

burn test platform used to conduct research and analysis of alternative methods for removing pollutants through burning. In-situ burning is the 

process of removing or otherwise mitigating surface pollutants (e.g., oil and other lighter-than-water products) by burning. Beginning in FY 2018, the 

Naval Research Laboratory stopped providing resources or other support to operate the JMTF. Previously, the Navy provided more than two-thirds of 

the total cost to operate the facility. The Coast Guard is unable to provide the full amount necessary to operate and maintain the facility.

Performance

The Coast Guard will continue to use alternative means of exploring and testing marine pollutant removal capabilities with existing resources, 

including the Coast Guard Research and Development Center, to ensure no degradation in performance.

The Medicare-Eligible Retiree Health Care Fund Contribution (MERHCFC) funds accrual of the Coast Guard’s military Medicare-eligible health 

benefit contribution to the Department of Defense (DOD) Medicare-Eligible Retiree Health Care Fund. Contributions are for future Medicare-eligible 

retirees, as well as retiree dependents and their potential survivors. The authority for the Coast Guard to make this payment on an annual basis is 

provided in P.L. 108-375, the 2005 Defense Appropriations Act. The Coast Guard’s annual budget estimate is calculated by multiplying the projected 

average force strength by DOD actuary projected normal cost rates for active duty and reserve personnel. While this expenditure requires no annual 

action by Congress, it is scored as discretionary spending. The FY 2019 President’s Budget requested MERHCFC base funding under O&S as part of 

the Common Appropriation Structure (CAS) transition. As part of the Coast Guard’s transition to CAS in FY 2019, MERHCFC was included as a 

PPA in O&S. However, due to existing appropriations language provided in P.L. 108-375, the 2005 Defense Appropriations Act, which provides 

authority to pay on an annual basis, MERHCFC was removed from O&S and displayed as a stand-alone appropriation in the amended FY 2019 

President’s Budget. The FY 2020 President’s Budget was updated to incorporate this change from the FY 2019 President’s Budget display.

The Boat Safety program aims to minimize loss of life, personal injury, property damage, and environmental impact associated with the use of 

recreational boats. The program directly supports the Coast Guard’s Maritime Prevention Program by promoting the safe and enjoyable use of public 

U.S. waterways. 

Boat Safety activities include: overseeing manufacturer compliance with Coast Guard regulations; making grants to states and national non-profit 

boating safety organizations; conducting surveys to measure recreational boating activity; continuing the “Boat Responsibly” national outreach and 

awareness initiative; promulgating safety regulations; and measuring life jacket wear rates, including the effectiveness of voluntary and mandatory 

efforts to increase life jacket usage. 

In its role as the designated National Recreational Boating Safety Program Coordinator, the Coast Guard is charged with managing dedicated user fee 

funding provided from the Sport Fish Restoration and Boating Trust Fund to support the National Recreational Boating Safety Program. Under the 

provisions of the Sportfishing and Recreational Boating Safety Act of 2005 (Subtitle A, Title X, P.L. 109-59), the Coast Guard receives a percentage 

distribution of total trust fund receipts from the preceding fiscal year (i.e., FY 2020 funding will be a percentage of FY 2019 trust fund receipts). The 

FY 2020 President’s Budget request includes an adjustment-to-base for trust fund receipts. Funds are available until expended, but are limited in 

purpose and amount in accordance with existing statute.

The Maritime Oil Spill Program operates under the authority of Title I of the Oil Pollution Act of 1990 (OPA), as amended, which provides for the 

use of the Oil Spill Liability Trust Fund (OSLTF) to pay for Federal response to oil spills and claims for uncompensated removal costs and damages 

resulting from such spills. The Maritime Oil Spill Program directly supports the Coast Guard’s Marine Environment Protection mission and Maritime 

Response Program.

In Section seven of Executive Order 12777, the President delegated management responsibility of the OSLTF to the Secretary of the Department in 

which the Coast Guard is operating. Upon re-delegation by the Secretary, the Commandant of the Coast Guard delegated responsibility to the 

National Pollution Funds Center (NPFC), which oversees the OSLTF.

The NPFC:

• Provides funding for Federal removal actions in response to a discharge or a substantial threat of discharge of oil to navigable waters of the 

United States.

• Compensates claimants for OPA removal costs or damages.

• Provides funding to natural resource trustees for Natural Resource Damage Assessments (NRDA). 

• Administers the OSLTF.
