  1. DIVISION 10 MSEP U.S. Coast Guard Auxiliary Marine Safety and Environmental Protection Flotilla 10-20 July 8, 2004

  2. DIVISION 10 MSEP • What We Do… • Our primary mission is to support the Marine Safety and Environmental Protection programs of the United States Coast Guard and to train and support members of the Coast Guard Auxiliary who join in this effort.

  3. DIVISION 10 MSEP • Ways in which we do this…. • Conduct Harbor Safety Patrols • Educate boaters on clean boating practices • Prepare Emergency Response plans • Port Safety and Security • Spill Reconnaissance • Provide auxiliary support to Coast Guard environmental outreach programs

  4. DIVISION 10 MSEP • Why we do this in Division 10…. • New York is the largest commercial port on East Coast • Over 200 regulated facilities • 5000 container mover per day • All 9 Hazardous classifications in our AOR. • Environmentally fragile areas (CFR 33) • July 1st IMO rules into effect. • Special Events (COTP directives) Fleet Week , RNC

  5. DIVISION 10 MSEP Explanation of Maritime Security (MARSEC) Levels The Coast Guard has developed a three-tiered system of Maritime Security (MARSEC) Levels consistent with the Department of Homeland Security's Homeland Security Advisory System (HSAS). The international maritime community is also using a three-tiered alert system that is consistent with the MARSEC levels used by the Coast Guard. MARSEC Levels were designed to provide a means to easily communicate pre-planned scalable responses to increased threat levels. MARSEC Levels will be set commensurate with the Homeland Security Alert System. Because of the unique nature of the maritime industry, the HSAS threat conditions and MARSEC Levels will align closely, though they will not directly correlate: MARSEC Level 1 applies when HSAS Threat Conditions Green, Blue, and Yellow are set. MARSEC Level 2 corresponds to HSAS Threat Condition Orange. MARSEC Level 3 Corresponds to HSAS Threat Condition Red

  6. DIVISION 10 MSEP • Area Maritime Security Plan (AMS) • Effective July 1, 2004 an elevated MARSEC level will trigger a specific action point from theAMS Planfor the Port of NY/NJ. The AMS Plan provides a comprehensive framework for the security of vessels, ports, and facilities located in the port area. The development of an AMS plan is mandated under the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR 33) and is under the responsibility of the COTP. The country’s maritime transportation system is considered vulnerable and any disruption to this system could be devastating to our economy. The AMS Plans focuses on (a) Probable threats and (b) Vulnerability at facilities and vessels in the port area. The AMS Plan prevention goals focus on three main areas: • Loss of Life • Environmental Disaster • Transportation System Disruption • The Division 10 MSEP program assisted in the development of the Infrastructure section of the New York AMS Plan.

  7. DIVISION 10 MSEP International Ship and Port Security Code (ISPS Code) Effective July 1, 2004 the U.N’s International Maritime Organization will be enforcing the new ISPS Code, which is a set of rules for ports and vessels to adhere to aimed at preventing terrorist attacks. The Coast Guard will be enforcing these rules under the Maritime Transportation Security Act. Vessels calling at the Port of NY/NJ will be required to provide the Coast Guard with a notice of arrival 96 hours before arrival. The vessel will be checked to insure it has a valid International Ship Security Certificate (ISSC). The ISSC confirms to the Coast Guard that the vessel has an approved security plan and conducts regular anti-terror drills. As a vessel makes its first call at the port after July 1, the Coast Guard inspection teams will board to make sure that crews are carrying out ISPS implementation plans. Failure to implement can result in a variety of control actions including denial of port entry. Port facilities and terminals in the Port of NY/NJ must also have security plans in place that correspond to the AMS Plan for the port and have been approved by the COTP. Failure to do so could result in the facility being shut down.

  8. DIVISION 10 MSEP MSEP is not a stand alone program. Its success is through the coordination and involvement with other flotilla missions. Vessel Examinations: Good Mate Program & Operation Waterway Watch Public Education: Sea Partners, Good Mate Programs & Waterway Watch Operations: Emergency Response Planning and Harbor Safety Patrols Marine Dealer Visits: National Clean Boating Campaign & Waterway Watch

  9. DIVISION 10 MSEP TRIDENT PROGRAM In June 2003 ten Auxiliary Performance Qualification (PQ) standards were established specifically for Auxiliarists and will enable Auxiliary personnel to more fully support Coast Guard Marine Safety Units in their missions
