3. DEFINITIONS. See Glossary.
4. POLICY. It is DoD policy that:
a. This Directive shall be implemented consistent with national security objectives and military readiness.
b. Unless expressly stated otherwise, the provisions of this Directive should not be construed to rescind any existing authorities of the Heads of DoD Components, commanders, and/or responsible DoD civilians to provide DSCA in accordance with existing laws, DoD issuances, and Secretary of Defense-approved orders.
c. DSCA is initiated by a request for DoD assistance from civil authorities or qualifying entities or is authorized by the President or Secretary of Defense.
d. All requests for DSCA shall be written, and shall include a commitment to reimburse the Department of Defense in accordance with sections 5121, et. seq., of Reference (f) (also known as "The Stafford Act"), section 1535 of title 31, U.S.C. (also known as "The Economy Act" (Reference (y))), or other authorities except requests for support for immediate response, and mutual or automatic aid, in accordance with paragraphs 4.g. and 4.m. of this section. Unless approval authority is otherwise delegated by the Secretary of Defense, all DSCA requests shall
DoDD 3025.18, December 29, 2010
#65532;#65532;Change 1, 09/21/2012 3
be submitted to the office of the Executive Secretary of the Department of Defense. For assistance provided according to paragraph 4.g. of this section, civil authorities shall be informed that oral requests for assistance in an emergency must be followed by a written request that includes an offer to reimburse the Department of Defense at the earliest available opportunity. States also must reimburse the United States Treasury in accordance with section 9701 of Reference (y). Support may be provided on a non-reimbursable basis only if required by law or if both authorized by law and approved by the appropriate DoD official.
e. All requests from civil authorities and qualifying entities for assistance shall be evaluated for:
(1) Legality (compliance with laws).
(2) Lethality (potential use of lethal force by or against DoD Forces).
(3) Risk (safety of DoD Forces).
(4) Cost (including the source of funding and the effect on the DoD budget).
(5) Appropriateness (whether providing the requested support is in the interest of the Department).
(6) Readiness (impact on the Department of Defense's ability to perform its other primary missions).
f. DSCA plans shall be compatible with Reference (i); the National Incident Management System (Reference (z)); all contingency plans for operations in the locations listed in paragraph 1.d. above the signature of this Directive; and any other national plans (approved by the President or Secretary of Defense) or DoD issuances governing DSCA operations. DSCA planning will consider command and control options that will emphasize unity of effort, and authorize direct liaison if authorized by the Secretary of Defense.
g. Federal military commanders, Heads of DoD Components, and/or responsible DoD civilian officials (hereafter referred to collectively as "DoD officials") have IMMEDIATE RESPONSE AUTHORITY as described in this Directive. In response to a request for assistance from a civil authority, under imminently serious conditions and if time does not permit approval from higher authority, DoD officials may provide an immediate response by temporarily employing the resources under their control, subject to any supplemental direction provided by higher headquarters, to save lives, prevent human suffering, or mitigate great property damage within the United States. Immediate response authority does not permit actions that would subject civilians to the use of military power that is regulatory, prescriptive, proscriptive, or compulsory.
(1) The DoD official directing a response under immediate response authority shall immediately notify the National Joint Operations and Intelligence Center (NJOIC), through the
Change 1, 09/21/2012 4
DoDD 3025.18, December 29, 2010
chain of command, of the details of the response. The NJOIC will inform appropriate DoD Components, including the geographic Combatant Command.
(2) An immediate response shall end when the necessity giving rise to the response is no longer present (e.g., when there are sufficient resources available from State, local, and other Federal agencies to respond adequately and that agency or department has initiated response activities) or when the initiating DoD official or a higher authority directs an end to the response. The DoD official directing a response under immediate response authority shall reassess whether there remains a necessity for the Department of Defense to respond under this authority as soon as practicable but, if immediate response activities have not yet ended, not later than 72 hours after the request for assistance was received.
(3) Support provided under immediate response authority should be provided on a cost- reimbursable basis, where appropriate or legally required, but will not be delayed or denied based on the inability or unwillingness of the requester to make a commitment to reimburse the Department of Defense.
h. The authority of State officials is recognized to direct a State immediate response using National Guard personnel under State command and control (including personnel in a title 32, U.S.C. (Reference (e)) (hereafter referred to as "Title 32") status) in accordance with State law, but National Guard personnel will not be placed in or extended in Title 32 status to conduct State immediate response activities.
i. Federal military commanders are provided EMERGENCY AUTHORITY under this Directive. Federal military forces shall not be used to quell civil disturbances unless specifically authorized by the President in accordance with applicable law (e.g., chapter 15 of Reference (d)) or permitted under emergency authority, as described below (see DoDD 3025.12 (Reference (j)) and DoDD 5525.5 (Reference (c))). In these circumstances, those Federal military commanders have the authority, in extraordinary emergency circumstances where prior authorization by the President is impossible and duly constituted local authorities are unable to control the situation, to engage temporarily in activities that are necessary to quell large-scale, unexpected civil disturbances because:
(1) Such activities are necessary to prevent significant loss of life or wanton destruction of property and are necessary to restore governmental function and public order; or,
(2) When duly constituted Federal, State, or local authorities are unable or decline to provide adequate protection for Federal property or Federal governmental functions. Federal action, including the use of Federal military forces, is authorized when necessary to protect the Federal property or functions.
j. Except for immediate response and emergency authority as described in paragraphs 4.g. and 4.i. of this section, only the Secretary of Defense may approve requests from civil authorities or qualifying entities for Federal military support for:
Change 1, 09/21/2012 5
DoDD 3025.18, December 29, 2010
(1) Defense assistance in responding to civil disturbances (requires Presidential authorization) in accordance with Reference (j).
(2) Defense response to CBRNE events (see DoDI 2000.18 (Reference (aa))).
(3) Defense assistance to civilian law enforcement organizations, except as authorized in Reference (c).
(4) Assistance in responding with assets with potential for lethality. This support includes loans of arms; vessels or aircraft; or ammunition. It also includes assistance under section 382 of Reference (d) and section 831 of title 18, U.S.C. (Reference (ab)); all support to counterterrorism operations; and all support to civilian law enforcement authorities in situations where a confrontation between civilian law enforcement and civilian individuals or groups is reasonably anticipated.
k. Federal military forces employed for DSCA activities shall remain under Federal military command and control at all times.
l. Special event support to a qualifying entity shall be treated as DSCA.
m. All requests for DSCA mutual and automatic aid via the DoD Fire and Emergency Services programs shall be in accordance with Reference (g).
n. DSCA is a total force mission (see DoDD 1200.17 (Reference (ac))).
o. No DoD unmanned aircraft systems (UAS) will be used for DSCA operations, including support to Federal, State, local, and tribal government organizations, unless expressly approved by the Secretary of Defense. Use of armed UAS for DSCA operations is not authorized. (See References (p), (q), (r), and (s))
p. Direct liaison between DoD Components and the States should occur only when time does not permit compliance with paragraph 13.a. in Enclosure 2 of this Directive. In each such instance, the Chief, National Guard Bureau, will be informed of the direct liaison.

    In summation, the military can give you a parking ticket for an expired meter.

    I think it says the Military can do anything they want once the locals call them in. Departure from what America once was to the new Amerika.

    You can think anything you want.

    This is old news, has already been discussed, and if you are going to be selective in what you choose to believe in the document because it suits your agenda, that says more about you than it does the DOD.

    Try Googling ICS.



    Discussed where? GD? I don't go there remember? Why don't you go back there and stay there? I don't need your needless rudeness. Go pick an argument with someone who cares.

    Ummmm, no, in this forum.

    It's not news, it's four years old.

    Even if in General Discussion, you can still read posts there.

    As far as I know, Politics has not become "Waco's Playhouse", despite appearances to the contrary.

    And if you don't actually read your own posts, or even do the minimum of research about them, why complain when someone else does ?



    What exactly is your point? The information is 4 year old? So all this time later it's somehow not relevant? look, unless the plan has been rescinded, it's still valid and still connected to what is going on in this country.

    I don't think it matters who is subjugated to who. I read english and it says the military may be called into civil issues. That's what I got out of it.

    Absolute power corrupts Absolutely ! Lets say a region/state like Crimea or Texas wants to Dissolve it's self from The/a Union and become a Nation/State.

    Guess what! Even if the voters passed a referendum to succeeded legally they would be invaded by The US Federal Government troops! That's what it means,who cares if the info is four years old or one hundred years!

    Go read about the Civil War and remember Might makes right and not voters or political ideas of what is right!

    Mao Tse-tung from Red China is right! Political[:o)] power comes out of an end of a barrel of a gun! Wake up your a pawn for the Elite to bring in a NWO for the whole world!

    Just look at Walmart and it's method of owning the world of retail! Even the communist like it! [:D] All hail the Corporations of The NWO with all forms of governments,central bankers and Elite Rich!
