Number Title Date Status ATP 3-11.47 contains detailed tactical doctrine and TTP and sets the foundation for the tactical employment of the CERFP and HRF. The CERFP and HRF can be pre-positioned, or they can respond to an incident using existing organic transportation and Army National Guard/Air National Guard units that are in 32 USC status. These units are trained and equipped to integrate under the National Incident Management System in support of an incident commander. The CERFP supports the incident commander by planning and exercising mission command, casualty search and extraction, ambulatory and nonambulatory mass casualty decontamination, emergency medical triage and patient stabilization, and fatality search and recovery. The HRF supports the incident commander by planning, mission command, security operations and, if applicable, CERFP operations. Army-Only Publications The USACBRNS is the U.S. Army proponent for four tactical-level, Army-only publications. ATP 3-11.24 Technical Chemical, Biological, Radiological, Nuclear, and High-Yield Explosives (CBRNE) Force Employment 6 May 14 Current. ATP 3-11.24 describes how CBRNE forces support combatant commanders through every phase of operations conducted in-theater and in the homeland. This is important in educating those who are outside the CBRN community with regard to the true capabilities of the technical CBRNE force. The appendixes include information about specific technical CBRNE force missions, organizations, capabilities, and employment considerations. ATP 3-11.50 Battlefield Obscuration 15 May 14 Current. ATP 3-11.50 provides TTP to plan obscuration operations and employ obscurants during, or in support of, unified land military operations at the tactical through operational levels of war. ATP 3-90.40 Combined Arms Countering Weapons of Mass Destruction TBD Under development. ATP 3-90.40 will provide tactical-level commanders, staffs, and key agencies with a primary reference for planning, synchronizing, integrating, and executing combined arms countering weapons of mass destruction. Technical Manuals The USACBRNS is the proponent and approving authority for two TMs. TM 3-11.32 MCRP 10-10E.5 NTRP 311.25 AFTTP 3-2.56 Multi-Service Reference for Chemical, Biological, Radiological, and Nuclear (CBRN) Warning, Reporting, and Hazard Prediction Procedures TBD Under development. Will be published 1st quarter FY 17. TM 3-11.32 will provide reference material for CBRN warning messages, incident reporting, and hazard prediction procedures. TM 3-11.42 MCWP 3-38.1 NTTP 3-11.36 AFTTP 3-2.82 Multi-Service Tactics, Techniques, and Procedures for Installation Emergency Management 23 Jun 14 Current. TM 3-11.42 addresses the installation commander's response to an incident that takes place on an installation. The scope of this revision has been expanded from CBRN defense to all-hazards installation emergency management, which includes the management of CBRN events. The publication defines the roles of DOD installation commanders and staffs and provides the TTP associated with installation planning and preparedness for, response to, and recovery from all hazards in order to save lives, protect property, and sustain mission readiness. TM 3-11.91 MCRP 3-37.1B NTRP 3-11.32 AFTTP 3-2.55 Chemical, Biological, Radiological, and Nuclear Threats and Hazards TBD Under development. Will revise and supersede FM 3-11.9 and FM 3-11.11. TM 3-11.91 will serve as a one-stop shop for information to help understand the CBRN environment. It will include the technical aspects of CBRN threats and hazards, including information about the chemistry of homemade explosives. In addition to the technical information on CBRN threats and hazards, it will also include basic educational information and cover the "so what" and the field behavior of CBRN hazards (including riot control agents and herbicides). The appendixes will contain scientific CBRN data, and the centerpiece of the manual will be the CBRN threats and hazards diagram. Winter 2016 57 "Doctrine is indispensable to an Army. Doctrine provides a military organization with a common philosophy, a common language, a common purpose, and a unity of effort."
