Yellow means go-NSAW urges personnel to carpool

By Whitney Anderson NSAW Public Affairs Office Finding a spot to park on the Washington Navy Yard after 8 a.m. is almost unheard of, but what if you had a reserved parking space waiting for you every morning? With the New Year ushering in the start of the new Naval Support Activity Washington traffic code, NSAW officials are urging personnel to make use of the carpooling option, thus ensuring a reserved space to park on base before 9:30 a.m.

The carpooling option gives personnel a chance to commute to work as a group, basing itself on the fact the Navy yard has a three person to one parking space ratio. As an added benefit, fewer drivers on the road mean a more eco-friendly commute to work each day for carpoolers.

Shawnise Young, supervisor of the WNY Visitor Control Center, said the option was provided to individuals working on the yard for their convenience, and when used properly can produce positive results for both personnel and command officials.

“The carpool passes are for any government seated person here on NSA Washington’s installation, and it’s slated out for three individuals who currently possess white parking placards,” said Young. “Those three individuals will turn in their separate parking placards and they will be issued one carpool permit to use between the three of them to park in designated spaces.”

Young said the three individuals would be required to come to the visitor’s center as a group with each individual providing their separate vehicle information in order for all three names to be registered to the one carpool permit.

“The information they’d need is license, registration, proof of insurance, and a copy of their SF 50 form showing they are a seated employee here on the installation,” said Young.

“The primary person will be the first person listed in the database and then the other two names will follow, this will show that all three individuals are registered to that one carpool pass.”

Young said installation officials have already started painting the designated carpool spac-

es yellow, with the designated time frame of space reservation allotted.

“The yellow carpool spaces are designated for the individuals from 5:30 a.m.until 9:30 a.m., after which time the spaces will open up for general individual parking,” said Young.

Young said although the new traffic policy won’t roll out until Jan. 1, she and her office have already taken the steps needed to have the permits available for personnel interested in obtaining a carpool pass now.

“No one has started to come in for it yet, they’ve just been asking information because it won’t be effective until January 1st, but I’ve let my staff know and we are ready to start handing them out to personnel interested,” said Young.

Young noted one thing personnel have to look forward to with registering for a carpool permit is the ability to arrive to work a bit later while still having a space to park.

“The advantage would be they’ll have an assigned parking space; parking is limited here on the base and the more people that drive, the less spaces there are, so if people are carpooling that eliminates so many people having to drive in individually,” said Young.

Another major advantage and incentive for people to use the carpooling option is a potential monetary gain for those offering to make their vehicle available to pedestrian base workers and a safe ride to work for employees who normally commute by mass transit with no additional charge to them.

People who want to run a carpool stand to benefit by encouraging their passengers to turn in their white placards and sign up for the mass transit benefit program. Riders can then pay the carpooler for gas and vehicle maintenance by using the government funds already allotted to them through the MTB program to help the driver offset the cost of driving in while still benefiting through having a guaranteed ride onto the installation.

Chief Michael McKinney, Naval District Washington’s chief of police, also noted that the advantage of carpooling far surpassed that of just convenience for base personnel, stating that safety during the winter months should also be a determining factor for individuals to carpool instead of driving onto the base sep-

“I think a lot of people should take advantage of the carpool situation; if you have a group of workers who can meet in a parking lot before coming to work and take turns driving in then a lot of the issue [of safety] would be solved, people would arrive and leave work together,” said McKinney.

Answering the questions on traffic policy-Q & A with command From Naval Support Activity Washington Public Affairs Office In last week’s Waterline, NSAW introduced the new traffic policy recently signed that is intended to alleviate traffic and parking congestion on the Washington Navy Yard. The announcement of the new policy generated a lot of important questions from the employees on the yard. The following are questions we’ve received with the responses provided by the command.

Q: Are contractors allowed to park on base?

A: Beginning Jan. 1, 2016 contractors generally will not be allowed to park on the base. Exceptions include some food service, custodial and maintenance contractors.

Please refer to paragraph 1e(1)(g) of Chapter 3, which states: “Proof that the contractor works onboard NSAW as a construction, maintenance, food service, custodial, or public works department contractor. No other contractors are permitted to receive parking placards.”

The NSAW Traffic Code contains a provision that the only contractors permitted to obtain parking placards are those who support the installation and tenants in construction, maintenance, food service, and custodial positions.

It’s important to remember that, while we don’t often think of it this way, parking spaces are real estate that costs the government money — that real estate is intended for use in providing a service to government employees (civilian and military). While NSAW values the support contractors provide to our tenants’ missions, general government policy is that contractors should not provide mission ESSENTIAL capabilities and contracting companies should also be covering the labor costs for their employees. Therefore, if there’s enough parking to go around, allowing contractors to use that real estate isn’t a big issue. But, if parking is in short supply, NSAW’s policy is that the parking resources should be provided to government employees first.

Q: Can I request a waiver to allow a contractor to park on base?

A: NSAW understands that there are contractors outside of that narrowly defined group who provide important services to the installation and our tenants. In those cases, NSAW is willing to consider waiver requests from tenant commands. Assuming we experience success in removing cars from the installation who do not belong here (e.g. people who use “free” Navy Yard parking to leave their car enroute to other workplaces in southeast D.C.), we will seek to provide parking services to as many contractors as possible without adversely impacting government employees.

NOTE: Individual requests will not be honored, but NSAW will accept memos for consideration signed “by direction” from a commander or director.

Q: How many people do I need in my car every day to get a yellow parking space?

A: Membership needs to be 3 or more. The intent of the instruction is to have three people use one vehicle to access the base. It is NOT our intent to force the vehicle to always have three occupants.

Q: How will you ensure those who receive

Exceptions include some food service, custodial and maintenance contractors. a yellow placard for carpool spaces are not dishonest?

A: Some unscrupulous person who wants to use a yellow space will not be able to recruit two transit riders to join them on their pass. If they did, we would identify the transit riders and those folks would either have to get off the carpool pass or surrender their Metro Benefit.

Q: Why add new ideas and rules if the real problem has been enforcement for the current policy? Couldn’t we immediately start enforcing to see how effective the current policy would be before moving on to more drastic action?

A: NSAWINST 5560.1B addresses a variety of issues that rendered the previously existing policy ineffective. First, and most basically, the old policy was reliant on enforcement via DoD decals that are no longer funded or authorized for use. Overall, our intent was to create conditions that support additional use of mass transit AND provide meaningful, responsible enforcement mechanisms that enhance service for those who are unable to take advantage of public transport. For example, we are now allowing personnel who turn in their placards for Transit Benefits to receive 5x passes per month from the VCC. This is authorized under the MTBP, but was never authorized by this command. Penalties under the old policy were not providing enough of a deterrent to change behavior in a way that enhanced compliance with the policy. The new Traffic Code also incorporates assistance provided by the DC U.S. Attorney’s Office, which is common on bases throughout CONUS, but until now has never existed at WNY. Q: Will I be required to display my parking pass to enter the installation?

A: Yes, police officers at the gate will not allow your vehicle access to the yard without properly displaying your parking placard.

NDW Commemorates Pearl Harbor during a Wreath Laying Ceremony

By Petty Officer 1st Class Pedro A. Rodriguez NDW Public Affairs Office Naval District Washington hosted a wreath laying ceremony at the U.S. Navy Memorial in Washington, D.C., Dec. 7, to commemorate the 74th Anniversary of the attack on Pearl Harbor.

The ceremony honored the victims and survivors of the December 1941 attack by the Japanese during World War II. Among the guests, was Pearl Harbor Survivor Mr. Frank Yanick, the sole survivor of the crew of the USS Phoenix (CL-46).Yanick was 19 years old when the attack happened, he described running through the ship, and the smoke, getting through the hatches and ripping off his graduation ring – directing fire through the smoke that billowed from the sinking ships in the harbor.

“The commemoration is important for America to be alert,” said Yanick. “We got caught unguarded and unprepared at Pearl Harbor and the big thing is to be alert to fight any foe coming in.”

Guest speaker Rear Adm. Alma M. Grocki,

World War II. “Remembering Pearl Harbor is more than remembering the fates of the Sailors and Marines on that day, it’s also about the soldiers, sailors, Marines, and airmen stationed on every ship and every shore command in Hawaii; it’s about honoring the Pearl Harbor survivors like Mr. Yanick here today who was on the USS Phoenix, who continued to serving and fighting.” said Grocki. “It is also about the civilians who lived under martial law and the ordinary citizens who supported the armed forces on the home front, with everything from victory gardens to buying bonds. Remembering Pearl Harbor is about American resilience and being prepared.”

Commandant, Naval District Washington Rear Adm. Yancy Lindsey along with Grocki proceeded placed a wreath at the stature of the Lone Sailor to commemorate the event. A bugler played taps culminating the ceremony.

Following the ceremony, guests proceeded to the Navy Memorial Historical Society with Yanick to speak about his experiences and share his memories of that day.

Navy Oceanography releases new operating concept

By Brian Leshak Office of the Oceanographer of the Navy Oceanographer of the Navy Rear Adm. Tim Gallaudet released Naval Oceanography’s new operating concept during the Navy’s Flag Officer &Senior Executive Symposium held Nov. 4-5, at the Washington Navy Yard.

Naval Oceanography provides environmental information that naval and joint forces use to operate more safely and effectively, and make better decisions faster than an adversary.

The new operating concept uses the Tasking, Collection, Processing, Exploitation and Analysis and Dissemination cycle, employed

by Navy and information dominance forces to generate improved battlespace awareness.

“The TCPED cycle describes our process – from prediction to implementation – as we continue to ensure the Navy navigates the high seas safely and effectively, and out-maneuvers our adversaries,” said Gallaudet. “With respect to Naval Oceanography, we use the TCPED cycle to provide the warfighter with a deep understanding of the physical environment necessary to make decisions.”

In the TCPED cycle, tasking originates with Gallaudet, who as commander of the Naval Meteorology and Oceanography Command/ Task Group 80.7, is responsible for directing subordinate units to perform the collection phase of the cycle. During the collection phase, unmanned systems, buoys, survey

ships, satellites, and observations from surface ships and aircraft are used to collect data that helps paint an oceanographic, atmospheric and celestial picture. Once the data is collected it is then ingested in Naval Oceanography’s production centers where high performance supercomputers process the data turning it into models that yield actionable information.

During the fourth phase, exploitation and analysis, Naval Oceanography experts determine how the modeled environment will impact the Fleet’s sensors, weapons, platforms and its people. That information is then disseminated to the staffs of forward deployed commander’s staffs to better enable their decisions on setting execution timelines, allocating assets and platforms, and selecting course and speed.

“Naval Oceanography has always supported our forward-deployed personnel with meteorological and oceanographic information like this, but organizing and processing the data in the TCPED cycle ensures our information is streamlined and able to be consumed more efficiently.”

TCPED is an information dominance process primarily used for intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance. As a member of the ID force, Naval Oceanography tailors the process to its physical battlespace awareness mission and focuses on dissemination and decision making.

Gallaudet also leads the Office of the Oceanographer of the Navy. His dual responsibilities enable him to provide Naval expertise on is-

Defense Secretary Ash Carter announced his Women in Service Review during a press brief at the Pentagon, Dec. 3. Beginning in January 2016, all military occupations and positions will be open to women without exception.

Carter opens all military occupations, positions to women

By Cheryl Pellerin DOD News, Defense Media Activity Defense Secretary Ash Carter announced that beginning in January 2016, all military occupations and positions will be open to women, without exception.

For the first time in U.S. military history, as long as they qualify and meet specific standards, the secretary said women will be able to contribute to the Defense Department mission with no barriers at all in their way.

“They’ll be allowed to drive tanks, fire mortars and lead infantry soldiers into combat,” Carter added. “They’ll be able to serve as Army Rangers and Green Berets, Navy SEALs, Marine Corps infantry, Air Force parajumpers, and everything else that was previously open only to men.”

Harnessing women’s skills, perspectives Even more importantly, he said, the military services will be better able to harness the skills and perspectives that talented women have to offer.

Despite real progress in recent decades and lately, opening more than 111,000 positions to women across the services, Carter said that about 10 percent of military positions – nearly 220,000 total – have remained closed to women.

These included infantry, armor, reconnais-

sance, and some special operations units, the secretary said.

Over the past three years, he added, senior civilian and military leaders across the Army, Navy, Air Force, Marine Corps and Special Operations Command have studied the integration of women into these positions.

“Last month I received their recommendations [and] the data, studies and surveys on which they were based regarding whether any of those remaining positions warrant a continued exemption from being opened to women,” Carter said, noting that the Army, Navy, Air Force and U.S. Special Operations Command said none of the positions warranted exemptions.

The Marine Corps asked for a partial exemption in areas that included infantry, machine gunner, fire support reconnaissance and others, he added, “[but] we are a joint force and I have decided to make a decision which applies to the entire force.”

Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Marine Corps Gen. Joseph F. Dunford Jr. was the Marine Corps commandant at the time, and Carter said that he and Dunford have discussed the issue many times.

“I just met with him and the other chiefs and service secretaries today, and he will be a full part of implementation,” Carter added, noting that he believes the issues raised by the Marine Corps can and will be addressed in implementation.

Departmental memorandum In a memorandum to the secretaries of all military departments and others, Carter directed the military services to open all military occupational specialties to women 30 days from today – a waiting period required by law – and by that date to provide updated implementation plans for integrating women into the positions now open to them.

Carter said Deputy Defense Secretary Bob Work and Vice Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Air Force Gen. Paul Selva will oversee the decision’s short-term implementation, ensure there are no unintended consequences to the joint force, and periodically update Carter and Dunford.

Women will be fully integrated into combat roles deliberately and methodically, the secretary said, using seven guidelines.

Seven Guidelines 1. Implementation will be pursued with the objective of improved force effectiveness.

2. Leaders must assign tasks and jobs throughout the force based on ability, not gender.

3. Equal opportunity likely will not mean equal participation by men and women in all specialties, and there will be no quotas.

4. Studies conducted by the services and SOCOM indicate that on average there are physical and other differences between men and women, and implementation will take

this into account.

5. The department will address the fact that some surveys suggest that some service members, men and women, will perceive that integration could damage combat effectiveness.

6. Particularly in the specialties that are newly open to women, survey data and the judgment of service leaders indicate that the performance of small teams is important.

7. The United States and some of its closest friends and allies are committed to having militaries that include men and women, but not all nations share this perspective.

Integrating women in all military jobs Implementation won’t happen overnight, Carter said.

“Fully integrating women into all military positions will make the U.S. armed forces better and stronger but there will be problems to fix and challenges to overcome,” he said. “We shouldn’t diminish that.”

The military has long prided itself on being a meritocracy, where those who serve are judged only on what they have to offer to help defend the country, Carter said.

“That’s why we have the finest fighting force the world has ever known,” he added, “and it’s one other way we will strive to ensure that the force of the future remains so, long into the future.”

New Navy OPSEC app released to sailors and DON personnel

By Petty Officer 2nd Class David R. Finley Jr. U.S. 10th Fleet Public Affairs Office The Navy released its new mobile Operations Security app designed to make annual training requirements more accessible to sailors Dec. 3.

The Naval OPSEC Support Team from Navy Information Operations Command Norfolk, worked closely with Navy Education and Training Center, Sea Warrior Program and TRACEN Technologies to develop the app.

Sailors can not only complete required training on the OPSEC app, but also access related resources and policies.

“Practicing OPSEC and understanding the OPSEC process will facilitate protecting critical information,” said Jim Magdalenski, director of the Naval OPSEC Support Team. “If shared or not protected, we leave this information vulnerable to adversary collection and aggregation, which could result in actions taken against us and ultimately result in mission failure, or even worse, loss of life.”

Military family members play an active role in OPSEC and are responsible for protecting unclassified critical information.

“One of the biggest benefits for this particular app is that family members can also access the information and complete the training, if they desire,” said Magdalenski. “Family members

play a vital role in protecting critical information, and also are the groups most frequently requesting OPSEC training briefs.”

The app gives sailors an alternative to completing their required GMT. Upon completing the training, sailors and Department of the Navy civilians will be given instruction on how to automatically update their electronic training jackets. Updates occur within two days.

“OPSEC Officers will have all the appropriate reference material at their fingertips to enhance their ship or shore command programs,” said Magdalenski. “The ultimate goal is persistent training and educating for sailors, civilians, and family on OPSEC, ultimately enhancing the readiness of the Navy.”

The OPSEC app features: * Policy/Guidance: Includes joint, DOD, Navy, and Marine Corps policies; Navy tactics, techniques, and procedures; Marine Corps “Warfighting” publication; and handbooks. * Training: Features links to three computer-based training modules, as well as information on courses offered by the Naval OPSEC Support Team Norfolk and other OPSEC agencies. This includes “Uncle Sam’s OPSEC”, a 14-section GMT video-based course designed to educate service members and their families on vulnerabilities and risks associated with sharing too much information, particularly on social media sites and via mobile devices. * Products: Includes training videos/links on a multitude of OPSEC topics, training briefs, smart cards that provide synthesized information and best practices at a quick glance, and brochures and posters to assist OPSEC program managers. * Assessments: Features information and resources to assist OPSEC program managers on how to conduct OPSEC assessments at their command. A step-by-step guide, briefing tools,

assessment checklists, sample questionnaires, and instructions are included. * Favorites/FAQs: Highlight parts of the app the user finds most valuable. The Frequently Asked Questions module addresses some of the most common and prevalent OPSEC issues affecting DON personnel today, like spear phishing, social engineering, and computer hacking.

The Naval OPSEC Support Team, located at Navy Information Operations Command Norfolk, provides command OPSEC program development, awareness resources, assessment assistance, guidance and support training that promotes an understanding of OPSEC among both active duty and dependent personnel. The NOST supports these programs worldwide through a one-stop website for reach-back support to improve capabilities that strengthen war fighting effectiveness.

To find the free Navy OPSEC app, search “Naval OPSEC” in the app stores or your web browser.

Navy Information Operations Command Norfolk serves as the Navy’s Center of Excellence for Information Operations.

NIOC Norfolk advances Information Operations war fighting capabilities for Naval and Joint Forces by providing operationally focused training and planning support; developing doctrine, tactics, techniques, and procedures; advocating requirements in support of future effects-based warfare; and managing functional data for Information Operations.

U.S. Fleet Cyber Command serves as the Navy component command to U.S. Strategic Command and U.S. Cyber Command, and the Navy’s Service Cryptologic Component commander under the National Security Agency/Central Security Service.
