Abstract:
ABSTRACT The efficiency of an oil spill response operation depends very much on the response commander's knowledge, experience, and possibilities of analyzing and reviewing the situation. Decisions must be made quickly and under great pressure. All officers in the Swedish Coast Guard (CG) have the same basic training in response preparedness. During service they will utilize their knowledge on board in real operations and in exercises (local, regional, national, and international). Through different senior courses, some of them will be authorized to be on-scene commanders and finally response commanders. The possibilities for training response commanders under “real” conditions are limited. Weak points in the organization, decision procedures, command centers, and such are usually found during actual operations, however. The Swedish Coast Guard has decided on a strategy to train the response commander and his staff in their normal workplaces, with their normal tools, and with the people they are used to working with. To accomplish this, the Coast Guard has developed a portable computerized exercise support system providing the command with necessary data and images to run an exercise.

Abstract:
In this paper, we present our collaborative work with the U.S. Coast Guard’s Ninth District and Atlantic Area Commands, in which we develop a visual analytics system to analyze historic response operations and assess the potential risks in the maritime environment associated with the hypothetical allocation of Coast Guard resources. The system includes linked views and interactive displays that enable the analysis of trends, patterns, and anomalies among the U.S. Coast Guard search and rescue (SAR) operations and their associated sorties. Our system allows users to determine the change in risks associated with closing certain stations in terms of response time and potential lives and property lost. It also allows users to determine which stations are best suited to assuming control of the operations previously handled by the closed station. We provide maritime risk assessment tools that allow analysts to explore Coast Guard coverage for SAR operations and identify regions of high risk. The system also enables a thorough assessment of all SAR operations conducted by each Coast Guard station in the Great Lakes region. Our system demonstrates the effectiveness of visual analytics in analyzing risk within the maritime domain and is currently being used by analysts at the Coast Guard Atlantic Area.

Abstract:
The average cocaine seizure rate of coast guard operations in the Colombian Pacific can be improved. To enhance this indicator, detection and interdiction must be improved. Therefore, the option of using an offshore platform with better detection means, and several Rapid Reasponse Units (RRUs) stationed offshore, is being analyzed. As a result, offshore platforms are neither feasible nor viable due to the depth of the sea floor (> 2 km), but SWATH platforms can be used. The parametric design of two SWATHs is performed and an operational evaluation is made of the different current units and SWATHs. The operational evaluation of the different current units and the proposed SWATHs is carried out and contrasted with their acquisition and life cycle cost, showing that the SWATHs have a better efficiency/cost ratio. Therefore, they can be considered as an alternative to improve the efficiency of cocaine seizures and other coast guard operations.

Abstract:
Passenger-carrying submersibles have been certified by the Coast Guard for operations in the United States Virgin Islands, Hawaii, and Guam. Although subject to the Coast Guard small passenger vessel regulations, 46 CFR Subchapter T, submersibles are not specifically addressed in the regulations. The Coast Guard does have a background in submersible safety based on past efforts to regulate industrial and research submersibles and interaction with the American Bureau of Shipping (ABS), which has been classing submersibles for many years and has classed all passenger submersibles to date. The certification process developed for these unique vessels evolved during the certification of Atlantis III, the first U.S. passenger submersible. Several designers, builders, and operators have entered the market and the business is steadily expanding into new areas of operation worldwide. The Coast Guard has initiated two major studies by the Department of Transportation and the National Research Council to ensure that this new maritime business is carefully analyzed for the safety of passengers and crew.

Abstract:
AbstractAfter Hurricane Katrina struck the Gulf Coast of the United States on 29 August 2005, it became obvious that the country was facing an enormous national emergency. With local resources overwhelmed, governors across the US responded by deploying thousands of National Guard soldiers and airmen. The National Guard has responded to domestic disasters due to natural hazards since its inception, but an event with the magnitude of Hurricane Katrina was unprecedented. The deployment of >900 Army National Guard soldiers to St. Bernard Parish, Louisiana in the aftermath of the Hurricane was studied to present some of the operational issues involved with providing medical support for this type of operation. In doing so, the authors attempt to address some of the larger issues of how the National Guard can be incor- porated into domestic disaster response efforts. A number of unforeseen issues with regards to medical operations, medical supply, communication, preventive medicine, legal issues, and interactions with civilians were encoun- tered and are reviewed. A better understanding of the National Guard and how it can be utilized more effectively in future disaster response operations can be developed.

Abstract:
ABSTRACT On February 3, 1998, a Quality Partnership Agreement was signed between the United States Coast Guard and the Spill Control Association of America (SCAA). The partnership was expanded on July 16, 1998 to include the Association of Petroleum Industry Cooperative Managers (APICOM). The three groups agreed that the objectives for this partnership are to improve the effectiveness of oil spill response operations and to further sound risk management during these operations. Through this partnership, the private sector response community and the Coast Guard will have an opportunity to develop a program of structured, informal, and cooperative processes that will examine issues that could be improved upon to maximize marine safety and environmental protection. This paper will discuss the history of spill response over the last 30 years in order to frame the current relationship between the Coast Guard and the response industry. In particular, issues of mutual concern to the Coast Guard, SCAA and APICOM that may be studied through the partnership will be introduced.

Abstract:
The Coast Guard has developed several systems to measure the performance of its engineering and logistics organizations. The development of these measures is based upon the need to show where and how the organization meets the American taxpayer’s needs. The use of multivariable regressions and determining the statistical distributions of the variables will show the adequacy of the measures and processes currently used. They will also determine a better way to measure the performance of the Coast Guard Small Boat Fleet. This research will analyze the 47 Motor Life Boat and 25 Response Boat-Small data from fiscal year 2011 to 2013. The focus will be on improving the measure used by the engineering and systems managers of the Coast Guard to manage assets and resources, as well as making recommendations on how to improve the processes involved in managing a robust engineering and logistics system.

Abstract:
U.S. Coast Guard leaders have received feedback concerning gaps in performance management of the Marine Inspection Program (MIP) from maritime industry stakeholders, Department of Homeland Security representatives, and internal agents over the past decade. The purpose of this case study was to explore strategies to improve performance in the U.S. Coast Guard MIP. Data were gathered through a review of documentation pertinent to marine inspection (i.e., policy, requirements, analyses, reports, and job aids) and 13 semistructured interviews with personnel from 3 distinct organizational levels. Study participants represented civilian and active duty personnel from all geographical U.S. Coast Guard districts, as well as tactical, strategic, and policy levels of the MIP. The conceptual framework of the study was Fusch and Gillespie's human competence model. Data analysis was based on coding of words, phrases, and sentences from multiple sources of data to identify recurring themes through methodological triangulation. The thematic analysis of the study data revealed themes that included lack of mission clarity, limited information management resources, differences in skills and knowledge management among inspectors, and unclear requirements for selecting a marine inspector. The study framework provided a basis for additional performance management research in government entities. The recommendations from this study may lead to social change through improved U.S. Coast Guard marine inspection services, which could result in greater safety, reduced pollution, and fewer security risks in the navigable waterways of the United States.

Abstract:
The effective use of information can enable a public agency to better serve the taxpayers, or provide a crucial strategic advantage for a private sector firm. Present U. S. Coast Guard information systems do not provide information to all potential users as effectively as they could. They suffer from several shortcomings: (1) Poor connectivity, resulting in an awkward, torturous information flow which frequently does not provide information to people who need it; (2) Significant overlap in content, resulting in increased workload and frustration for field personnel who enter data and data inconsistencies between applications; and (3) poor user interface designs, resulting in a situation where although information may be accessible to a user, it is difficult to retrieve and therefore not gotten. Cross-functional systems, based on a robust information architecture, offer the potential to dramatically improve information flow and availability within an organization. In the Coast Guard, the flow of operational information can be greatly improved by developing a cross-functional Operations Information System (OIS). Developing such a system is critical to continued effectives service to the public, but may require changes in the ways in which systems are developed and funded.

Abstract:
Thesis (S.M. in System Design and Management)--Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Engineering Systems Division, 2010.<br>Cataloged from PDF version of thesis.<br>Includes bibliographical references (p. 110-113).<br>Within any major United States Coast Guard cutter acquisition project, developing the operational requirements in the early phases of acquisition is difficult as the complexity of the system is not easily understood until the detailed design is completed. This can lead to requirements that are too broad or analysis efforts strategically focused on sections that are not at high risk to future design efforts or within sections that are decoupled from the major design parameters. This is often experienced when analysis studies are conducted independently and not evaluated from a total systems perspective. In order to improve the requirements generation methodology within United States Coast Guard acquisition, this thesis introduces a process focused Operational Requirements Framework. This framework synthesizes program, sponsor, and technical authority requirements a generic framework that focuses on a high-level systems engineering viewpoint to ensure that all requirements processes and their interactions are understood simultaneously. Within this framework, stakeholder analysis, operations and missions, and the design effects of "ilities" and interfaces are added to enhance the requirements development process. These new processes provide a better understanding of how the operational requirements meet value for all stakeholders and how the interaction of these requirements over the life cycle affects the acquisition project. This thesis also establishes a methodology, adapted from Responsive Systems Comparison (RSC), and practical application of this methodology in a current Coast Guard acquisition project. This 5-process method provides a diverse group of stakeholders key insight into the overall interaction of value, design variables, and contextual life cycle changes and their impact to the overall project. This can improve the coordination of the operational requirements generation and provide prioritization into analysis work necessary to establish a total systems approach towards requirements generation.<br>by Douglas M.

碩士<br>僑光科技大學<br>企業管理研究所<br>102<br>The chapter of beginning strategy In the Art of War mentioned: “War is the big issue in national affairs; it tells the difference between life and death, the way of survival, and mustn’t be neglected …” Therefore, having considered the easiness of tension with other countries and cross-strait military relations, the alternation of defense strategy, and tightness of budget, ROC Ministry of National Defense initiated Jing-shie, Jing-jin, and Jing-tsuei in 1996, 2004, and 2011 respectively. Although its target was to construct a better, cheaper, and stronger modern defense forces for Taiwan, following the three streamlining projects and the postponement of all-voluntary systems to 2017, the problem of over-supplied personnel emerged. Before the constitution law is amended, all the enlisted men should fulfill the tasks empowered by constitutional law to serve the country. With respect to the continuous reduction of conscription duration and the adjustment of ration of constriction and voluntary forces, Taiwan established “Executive Yuan’s committee of initiative for alternative conscription forces implementation “in March, 1998, soon after that, the associated laws and procedure were put in place. The Executive Yuan announced that the programming of alternative conscription forces should follow the three principles: 1. it mustn’t affect the supply of conscription forces; 2. it will not reduce the quality of conscription forces; 3. it does not work against the fairness of conscription duty based on national security. The conscription forces began to implement on May 2000, so far there are 54 branches to be allocated, 1300 units to be serviced, and 26,941 alternative enlisted are available. It has been 14 years since the alternative conscription forces were implemented, and there are different kinds of opinion from various aspects. In light of the allocation list of alternative conscription forces announced by Executive Yuan, it can be seen that there are alternative police force enlisted men allocated to the department of Coast Guard; therefore this study aims to target on the alternative police force enlisted men served in the Department of Coast Guards, by means of literature research to explore the mindset of alternative police forces enlisted men. Finally, this paper will pinpoint the short coming of the system and proposed strategy to improve; which are expected to be referenced by related institute to amend the system, yield alternative conscription force to develop well, and allow the conscription system to cease perfectly.

碩士<br>國立臺灣海洋大學<br>海洋法律研究所<br>94<br>Abstract With the time progressing, it is the international social trend that human rights surges upward. People’s request to the utilization of law has evolved up to now from passively anticipating that laws have to conform to the trends at that time, to questioning the contents of the law, and actively inspecting the quality and the standard of the law enforcement institution’s performance. From the 535th solution released by the grand justice, we can see how important people think of their individual rights, especially to the limitation or prohibition of their rights. However, the law enforcement workers should face them more carefully and rigorously in order to maintain the law enforcement image and people’s right. For the seacoast defense patrol bureau, it is the sole institution in our country that responsible for law enforcement at sea areas. Its law enforcement scope includes waters, the territorial sea, the contigous zone, the exclusive economical zone, the continental shelf and the high seas. It is the institution that has the power of law enforcement both nationally and internationally. The laws carried out by it have to conform to not only the national condition and the anticipation of the society, but also the jurisdiction rights that the international law of the sea gives to the nations. It is not just shouting out the slogans. Based on this, when we cry out that our nation is a marine nation that has democratic government and ruled by laws, we must have laws that conform to the authority of the institution in order to walk into the forests of advanced countries, maintain the benefits of our country, and fulfill the spirit of laws. Facing the anticipation of our society and the national laws, learning from the progress of US, Japan, South Korea, and referring to the novelty of the standards, the suggestion, and methods developed by the international organization’s joint pledges and agreements, we must have the ability of introspection. The ability is carried out by revising and formulating the laws related to the tasks of the coast guard institution. Therefore, we can create laws that give the coast guard institution power to apprehend smugglers, arrest sneaking people, maintain fishery resources, protect sea environment, and rescue people on the sea. Thus our nation can keep pace with the international advanced nations in respect of the formulation of the law system.

Abstract:
This chapter discusses how, instead of establishing a top-down command and control structure, the Coast Guard — from the top brass down to the on-scene rank and file — allowed for the organic, needs-driven, decentralized response that played an enormous role in the ultimate success of the waterborne evacuation. This approach, in turn, allowed mariners to take direct action, applying their workaday skills to singular circumstances, without being stifled by red tape. No one had foreseen the sudden need for evacuating a huge swath of Manhattan Island. Yet as terrorized people continued to flee to the waterfront, more and more boats turned up to rescue them. As greater numbers of vessels and evacuees amassed along the shoreline, streamlining operations became the biggest challenge. The only solution was to get organized, and that organization was implemented in large part by Lieutenant Michael Day and the pilots operating aboard the New York, which continued its barrier patrol. Their efforts were made easier by the relationships that both the Coast Guard and the Sandy Hook Pilots had with the New York harbor community.

Abstract:
This chapter assesses the overwhelming task of building up Coast Guard security operations after the 9/11 attacks. A decade and a half later, the new captain of the port, Captain Michael Day said that the current culture of vigilance combined with an even stronger “unity of purpose and effort” than that which he extolled in 2001 have created a far safer port. Today's security systems are much more integrated across agencies than they were before. These important, although somewhat intangible, differences between then and now have also been reinforced by the very tangible reality of infrastructure. The Port of New York and New Jersey has received what Day called the “enabling mechanism of fairly robust port security grants.” Not only does the Coast Guard have better tools and equipment, it also has better systems in place for addressing security issues with a multiagency approach. And now, for the first time, there is an actual maritime evacuation plan.

Abstract:
Chapter 4 investigates Dutch, English, and French smugglers who traded with Venezuelan subjects. Historians know very little about the social composition and trading methods of early modern smugglers. An in-depth analysis of hundreds of cases finds that these enigmatic figures came mostly from foreign colonies close to Venezuela including Curaҫao, Martinique, and Jamaica, but also from farther afield, in some cases. Most traders were part of small, multinational, multilingual, and multiracial crews. Although they were outsiders to Venezuela, these contrabandists maintained close contacts on shore who influenced how they conducted business. Smugglers were savvy and adaptable to local market conditions, customs, languages, and coast guard operations. Particularly important to the strategic intelligence of smugglers were Sephardic Jewish trading networks well versed in Iberian cultural traditions. Such contacts produced a smuggler’s craft that combined deception, force, bribery, and Spanish judicial savvy. At times the historical record indicates the presence of more elaborate and wealthy merchant conglomerates. Yet illicit exchange in the early modern maritime world offered egalitarian and entrepreneurial opportunities for small-time captains willing to trade on their own account. Counterbalancing potential profits were the inherent hazards of coastal violence, wartime privateering, coastguard patrols, exile, and forced labor.

Abstract:
The United States Coast Guard is responsible for completing all of its statutory missions in U.S. waters surrounding Alaska. In the past, patrols in these waters have been limited to areas outside of the seasonal sea ice boundary, plus one or two icebreaker patrols per year. Recently, due to reduced sea ice areal coverage and the associated increases in commercial activity, demands for a Coast Guard presence in the Alaskan Arctic have increased significantly. In addition to ongoing efforts to increase the size of the icebreaker fleet, these demands have caused the U.S. Coast Guard to operate non-ice-strengthened cutters in areas where sea ice could be encountered, and to evaluate the capabilities of these cutters to operate in ice. This paper presents results of engineering studies completed over the past several years to evaluate the capabilities of current and future cutters for operations in ice and cold temperatures. These studies, which are also applicable to naval combatants, include: (1) definition of sea ice characteristics variations with season and geographic location; (2) evaluation of the ice-transiting capabilities of non-ice-strengthened hull structures; (3) analysis of potential increases in safe operating areas for different levels of ice strengthening; (4) evaluation of the capabilities of existing rudders, propellers, struts and shafting to withstand ice impacts; (5) assessment of possible cold temperature operating issues for deck equipment; and (6) analysis of the capabilities of HVAC, electrical and seawater systems to operate in cold air and water temperatures. Findings for each of these studies are discussed and results are presented. In addition, lessons learned from actual operations are included where appropriate. Finally, recommendations are offered for future class-specific engineering evaluations and operating considerations when non-ice-strengthened vessels are assigned to operating areas where sea-ice and cold temperatures may be encountered.

Abstract:
The Manned Underwater Vehicles industry has evolved since the launch of DSV ALVIN in 1964 and the establishment of tourist passenger submersibles in the 1980’s and 1990’s. The emergence of the tourist passenger submersible sector in 1993 prompted the US Coast Guard to regulate commercial marine operations in the interest of public safety through NVIC 5-93. The rules were designed specifically for submersibles selling seats to members of the general public. To ensure public safety, the USCG helped define safeguards for those participants. Submersibles owned by the government, research institutions and corporations; or submersibles used for purposes other than selling rides to members of the general public, were not wholly addressed because growth in that sector was unforeseen. Almost 25 years after its release, the industry is regulated across all sectors of MUV operations by definitions established for the operation of a narrow segment of the industry, the tourism submersibles. However, construction over the past 23 years is 18% tourism submersibles, 8% government and 7% research. The remaining 67% of vessels, fall into an “other” category which does not have adequate definition. This white papers proposes that the Marine Technology Society committee on Manned Underwater Vehicles conduct a study for an updated Manned Underwater Vehicle Operations Safety Guideline with broad participation of the MUV stakeholders; International MUV industry members, Marine Technology Society, ASME PVHO, ABS, DNVGL, US Coast Guard and Navy. The challenge is to find the correct balance of regulatory control and commercial freedom to promote commercial growth while having a robust regulatory framework to manage the various concepts.

Full text
Abstract:
The stern boat deployment system was investigated to evaluate the capability of launching and recovering RHIB via the stern ramp. The main parameters to launch and recover RHIB were tested at the design stage. The combined hydrodynamic effect of the stern wake and the water jet flow made it difficult to maintain the maneuvering and seakeeping ability of RHIB approaching to the stern ramp. The safe recovery course was proposed to maintain the directional control of RHIB and to reduce the combined hydrodynamic effect in the transom zone. To evaluate the feasibility of RHIB recovery, the stern sill depth was measured in various conditions and the ramp availability time was obtained. Also, the experimental PTO test was performed by the number of successive launching and recovering operations.

Abstract:
The shipbuilding industry is approaching a historic crossroads. The demand for new and more capable ships is surging while a wave of retirements and operational obsolescence will place enormous challenges on shipbuilders around the world. However, recent performance setbacks in the form of protracted delays in delivery of new ships that were over budget and not compliant with essential requirements clearly confirmed that the industry must do better. At the same time, increased fleet operations are placing significant pressure on fleet maintenance budgets to achieve expected fleet availability metrics within the bounds of available resources. The challenges that these conditions are placing on the shipbuilding industry prompted a group of industry and government leaders in the USA to have the first Global Shipbuilding Executive Summit in 2010 that was jointly sponsored by the American Society of Naval Engineers and Siemens PLM Software. Based on the view that Public Private Partnerships are best suited to deal with such broad systematic issues, a group of like-minded leaders came together to focus on solutions to the top shipbuilding industries challenges. The summit began with introductory comments by prominent shipbuilding leaders from both the USA and Europe. The European perspective was a very important and challenging viewpoint on how leading shipyards are addressing similar challenges and moreover competing in the export market for high performance vessels. Then close to 100 executives spent several hours developing a set of specific recommendations to improve industry performance and productivity.

Abstract:
Failures of machinery and systems aboard towing vessels can have devastating consequences to the vessel, its crew, other vessels and their crews, shoreside populations and facilities, cargoes, marine transportation systems, commerce, and the environment. This paper presents a comprehensive methodology for implementing Risk-Based Maintenance and Inspections of towing vessel machinery and systems. Utilizing incident data from the United States Coast Guard (USCG) and other relevant industry information, the authors apply the principles set forth in ANSI/API Recommended Practice 580, Risk-based Inspection [1], as a guideline. Relatively straightforward to implement, the methodology presented in this paper is expected to improve towing vessel safety, reduce potential dangers associated with towing operations, and provide favorable risk/benefit reward to vessel owners.

Abstract:
Two regulations have been promulgated to prevent the transfer of non-indigenous species between marine habitats of the world: the 2004 IMO Ballast Water Management Convention, and the 2012 US Coast Guard Standards for Living Organisms in Ships’ Ballast Water Discharged in US Waters. These regulations will apply to more than 60,000 vessels that carry ballast water between various worldwide ports, including smaller vessels that operate in a variety of applications such as towing and offshore support. This paper will define the regulations and review their applicability to smaller vessels, examine the merits and risks of each ballast water treatment technology, provide information on the relative impact of treatment systems to small vessel operations, and identify potential alternatives to onboard treatment.

Full text
Abstract:
Environmentally clean and green energy is becoming increasingly a requirement of electric power delivery systems. The focus on energy security and terrorism makes an indigenous, sustainable and distributed energy resource increasingly attractive. Distributed wind power has been shown to be a good and economic means for generating clean power in good wind sites, even on an intermittent basis. However, the best wind sites are located offshore where deeper water makes current large bladed windmills uneconomic. A low cost and patently unique modular wind power technology, designated a Wind Amplified Rotor Platform (WARP™) system technology, has been investigated which projects attractive technical and economic benefits when tension leg deployed in deeper water sites where big rotor windmills are impractical. Under marine offshore use these designated e-Sea WARP™ units may include integral gas turbines or fuel cells. The latter may cogenerate with WARP windpower generated hydrogen fuel stored in onboard buoyancy tanks to supply ondemand electric energy which may be shown to be under $.02/kWhr to under $.04/kWhr. Electrical loads from electric utilities, military facilities or on-board naval operations may be serviced. Large environmental, economic, and strategic benefits may be realized by use of this technology for commercial and/or naval/coast guard sentry operations. In essence, e-Sea WARP™ systems may provide sustainable ultra-clean on-demand electricity to onboard naval systems or to nearby energy demand centers on shore by submarine cable from normally excellent wind sites miles from shore at sea.
