System Operational Environment Table 10. Performance Parameters
1 Introduction The U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP), based upon operational needs, has an immediate requirement to inspect vehicles for illegal contraband including narcotics and terrorist weapons. Because of the volume of vehicles flowing through the Ports of Entry, a system that allows vehicles to be driven through the system by the vehicle’s driver and with vehicle occupants still inside is required. The Non Intrusive Inspection (NII) Program Mission Needs Statement (MNS) and Integrated NII Preliminary CONOPS provides the Pre-Primary and secondary scanning use cases for the Passenger Vehicle scanning system used to derive the functional and performance requirements documented herein. The use cases and requirements were further refined with input from CBP Officers and insights gained from the Pre-Primary POV Screening System (P3S) Marketing Research Report. This FRD documents the functional and performance requirements for three categories of low energy drive through NII Type Systems: Type 1. Pre/Post primary Passenger vehicle scanning system; Type 2. Secondary Passenger vehicle scanning system; Type 3. Bus/Truck Tractor Semi Trailer scanning system.
CBP’s Office of Field Operations (OFO) secures the orderly flow of people and goods into and out of the U.S., while facilitating legitimate trade and travel. The purpose of these systems is to enable CBP to perform effective and efficient Non-Intrusive Inspection of conveyances, including passenger occupied vehicles and Buses to detect contraband such as illicit drugs, terrorist weapons, and currency. These systems will be used for inspection of smaller vehicles such as privately owned vehicles (POV) including cars, sport utility vehicles, pickup trucks, motorcycles, commercial vans, dual-rear wheeled trucks, and towed trailers and larger vehicles like buses, recreational vehicles, buses, and truck tractors with empty semitrailers and trailers. Each system shall be capable of providing a NII image with the quality identified within the performance requirements in section 4.2.0.1 of this FRD to aid CBP personnel in identifying anomalies (potential contraband) within the conveyance. In addition, CBP Officers safeguard U.S. agriculture from harmful animal, fruit, and vegetable diseases and foreign invasive pest species not currently in the US.
Mission Needs Statement (MNS) Gaps This FRD is derived from the operational analysis, the Integrated NII Preliminary POV CONOPS, the MNS, and Market Research. Below in Table 2 NII Mission Needs Statement Gaps are the NII Gaps addressed by the System.
Table 2 NII Mission Needs Statement Gaps # Gap Description Type
3 Data Networking and Integration
In tandem with #1 and #2, establish a system architecture framework, with interface standards, common data and standard interfaces, and connectivity requirements to support networking and integration of current and future sensors and incremental software improvements.
Material
# Gap Description Type
4 Primary NII Image Scanning Capability / Capacity
Currently, NII image scanning is largely a secondary or targeted inspection process. Various operational vectors, including land border Privately Owned Vehicle (POV), truck cargo, seaports, mail, express consignment cargo, and air freight, do not perform NII scanning on a large percentage of incoming traffic / containers.
The NII Program must identify and employ new, more efficient technology systems and associated CONOPs, which can offer an opportunity to greatly increase scan rates in these vectors without increasing wait times.
Material
11 Aging and Obsolete NII Equipment
Many fielded systems, approximately 27 percent of large-scale and 35 percent of small-scale NII systems, are in need of lifecycle replacement as they have exceeded the vendor defined service life or are already functionally obsolete.
Material
15 Chemical, Biological, and Explosive Detection Equipment
There is a lack of NII equipment capacity and capability to detect chemical, biological, and explosive threats and hazards.
Additionally, the infrastructure and physical space at many POEs is insufficient to deploy and operate CBE detection systems.
Material Facilities
System Constraints
a. Only active systems with generated X-Ray sources will be considered.
b. Per ANSI 43.17, potential radiation dose to vehicle occupants that exceeds 25 µrem per scan shall not be considered. 4.3.1.4
c. Any wireless communication, including Bluetooth that cannot be disabled by Administrator level operators, will not be considered. (Based on DHS 4300A Sensitive Systems Handbook)
d. Passenger vehicle scanning systems
1. Type 1 and 2 systems: Pre-Primary, Post Primary and Secondary Passenger Vehicle
Scanning Systems tunnel shall be no less than 9 ft. high x 9 ft. wide. 4.2.2.1
2. Type 1 systems: Pre-Primary, Post Primary Passenger Vehicle Scanning Systems footprint area for a single lane shall not exceed 14 ft. (T)/ 12 ft. (O) width x 20 ft. (T) / 14 ft. (O) length. Error! Reference source not found. and 4.2.2.2.1 Note: the system includes scanning sensors, sensor support, cameras, and electronics and any shielding walls inherent to the design to meet 4.2.2.6.1. Ancillary equipment in section 4.2.1, 4.2.3, 4.2.4 and USS in section 4.2.5 is excluded from this requirement.
3. Type 2 systems: Secondary Passenger Vehicle Scanning Systems footprint area shall not exceed 24 (T) 16 (O) feet wide by 24 (T) 20 (O) feet long, and 15 (T) feet high.
4.2.2.3
e. Type 3 systems: Bus/Truck low energy systems
1. Bus/Truck low energy systems shall tunnel shall be no less than 14 ft 6 in (T) 15 ft
(O) high x 12 ft (T) wide. 4.2.2.6
2. Bus/Truck low energy systems footprint shall not exceed 29 (T) 20 (O) ft wide by 27 (T) 22 (O) ft long, and 21 ft 6 in (T) high. 4.2.2.7
2 Configurations CBP requires three types of low energy drive through portals; Type 1. Portals with a limited footprint to support high traffic volume scanning in pre/post primary passenger vehicle operations; Type 2. Portals with a larger footprint and top down and side views to support secondary passenger vehicle operations;
and Type 3. Portals to accommodate Bus and Truck/Semi-Trailer scanning operations. Each of these types of portals must be configured to meet the variation in Land Port of Entry (LPOE) operational requirements. CBP POEs range from small (one to two lanes) to large (over 34 lanes) and require systems capable of being configured to meet the needs of the port. Larger LPOEs will require automated systems integrated with the CBP network and information systems to efficiently scan high volumes of traffic. The pre/post primary system must be capable initially of supporting a non-integrated CBP network post- primary CONOPS, with the eventual goal of an integrated CBP nework pre-primary CONOPS. Control stations may be single operator workstations networked with a single portal for a small port or multiple portals multiplexed to multiple workstations in a large port to facilitate a high passenger vehicle throughput. The final configuration is a pre-primary system integrated with Radiation Detection Equipment (RDE) and CBP Land Border Integration (LBI) systems. These configurations will be implemented incrementally. Requirements for specific types of portals are specifically designated for the type of portal. The initial baseline configuration for all portal types will be a post-primary configuration on a private network, isolated from the CBP network. Type 1 configuration one
(1) is a pre-primary system, integrated with the CBP network and the Land Border Integration (LBI) interface. Type 2 and Type 3 configuration one (1) are secondary systems integrated with the CBP network. Configuration two (2) includes Type 1, 2, and 3, systems integrated with RDE Alarms. This document includes the requirements for types of systems and all configurations. Requirements for specific types of systems are annotated with the type, requirements for a specific configuration are annotated with a (1) following the requirement. Requirements without an annotation are the baseline post primary configuration.
3 Passenger Vehicle Scanning System Use Cases The Passenger Vehicle Scanning System will be used in a post-primary CONOPS and it introduces a new CBP CONOPS. The post-primary CONOPs provides an additional inspection tool that can be used to augment physical inspections. The new pre-primary CONOPS utilizes technology to scan passenger vehicles prior to arriving at the Primary booth providing the Primary Officer with an additional decision aid. This new CONOPS will be performing scanning and adjudicating activities prior to the passenger vehicle arriving at the primary point of inspection into the United States. Primary point of inspection may vary based on where the CBP officers start their inspection. This drive through CONOPS will increase throughput enabling a higher scanning percentage of vehicles entering the U.S. and thereby increasing the probability of detecting illegal contraband entering the country to deter smuggling via passenger vehicles. The operational description (see Figure 1 Passenger Vehicle Scanning System - Perform Operations Use Cases) includes the use cases described below. Stakeholders or actors for the use cases are described in Table 3 Passenger Vehicle Scanning System - Stakeholders.

Inspection Use Case Summary
The use case describes POE CBP operations when scanning inbound passenger vehicles at a land border crossing. Steps on CBP systems external to the Passenger Vehicle Scanning System are included to provide context to the operation and to identify interfaces to CBP systems.
Pre-Condition
1) The System is ready for operation
2) A vehicle is arriving at Port of Entry
Post Condition
1) The vehicle is cleared and proceeds to exit, or is referred for secondary inspection
2) The Data Store (DS) sends the Image Data Set (IDS) to the Analyst Human Machine Interface (HMI)
Stakeholders
Passenger Vehicle and its Occupants
Steps
1) This use case begins when the System confirms the vehicle is not oversized prior to the vehicle proceeding.
2) If the vehicle chooses to OPT out of scanning, then the vehicle proceeds to the OPT out lane.
Extend: Opt Out Lane Processing Use Case
3) The System’s Pre-Primary License Plate Reader (LPR) captures the front License Plate (LP) and system image of the subject vehicle. (Note: not all vehicles are required to have front license plates. In addition, front license plates may be placed off to the side.)
4) The Traffic Control Indicator signals the subject vehicle to enter the passenger vehicle lane.
5) The Traffic Control Indicator signals any following vehicles to stop until the portal is clear to proceed.
6) The System captures drivers and passenger(s) RFID(1).
7) The vehicle advances through the passenger vehicle lane and triggers a presence sensor.
8) The presence sensor activates vehicle scanning and starts capturing undercarriage USS imagery (when deployed).
9) The vehicle’s movement through the system portal is captured on undercarriage imagery from the entrance to the exit of the tunnel. (option)
10) The subject vehicle continues to move through the passenger vehicle lane at approximately 5 mph.
11) If the subject vehicle advances at a speed that could potentially expose vehicle occupants to radiation dose above 25 µrem per scan, the system stops scanning.
12) If scan stops due to a slow speed (step 11), then the IDS is annotated that the “scan stopped due to slow speed.”
13) When the System detects the end of the subject vehicle:
a) System stops scanning
b) System stops capturing undercarriage imagery (option)
c) System’s LPR captures the rear LP
14) If the System detects the next conveyance within 5ft of previous vehicle, then treat that conveyance as a trailer to the previous vehicle and process it as another vehicle. The scan will be a single scan, but annotated as a trailer.
15) The subject vehicle proceeds to next available Primary Lane. (1)
16) When the subject vehicle clears Portal, the Traffic Control Indicator signals the next vehicle to enter System Screening Portal.
17) System Screening Portal sends the IDS to Data Store (DS).
18) The DS stores Image Data Set (IDS) (see Table 4 Image Data Set (IDS) Content) and adds to the IDS list of LP numbers.
19) This use case ends when the DS sends the IDS to the system HMIs.
Control Center Analysis Use Case Summary The use case describes Port of Entry (POE) CBP operations when the Command Center Analyst is analyzing and adjudicating the inbound vehicles IDS at a land border crossing. In periods when the Command Center is closed due to low traffic volumes, this use case would be performed at the HMI in secondary, vs the command center. Steps on CBP systems external to the Passenger Vehicle Scanning System are included to provide context to the operation and to identify interfaces to CBP systems.
Pre-Condition
1) Passenger Vehicle Inspection Use Case has occurred
2) The list of IDS LPs are being displayed on the control center HMI(s)
Post Condition
1) The IDS is annotated with suspect or non-suspect
2) The LP, RFID, and adjudication are passed to the LBI system
Stakeholders
Command Center Analyst, Primary Officer, Secondary Officer, Passenger Vehicle and its Occupants
Steps
1) This use case begins when the Command Center Analyst picks the next IDS available from the IDS List.
2) The HMI IDS list displays “Under Review” status when the IDS is being analyzed that will timeout after 60 seconds of inactivity and return to IDS List.
3) The IDS is unavailable for other users to open or make edits when in “Under Review” status.
4) If an RDE alarms on the vehicle, the alarm is provided on the HMI. (2)
5) The Analyst reviews and adjudicates the vehicle IDS.
6) The Analyst selects the IDS status on the HMI as “Non-Suspect” or “Suspect.”
7) If “Non-Suspect” is selected, then the DS updates the IDS record as “Non-Suspect.”
8) If “Suspect” is selected, then the DS updates the IDS record as “Suspect.”
The Scanning System passes the IDS record to CBP Land Border Integration (LBI) network. (1)
(Note: Steps 9 -17 are performed by the Land Border Integration system (LBI) in a pre-primary configuration when the system is integrated with LBI and are only provided here for information purposes.)
9) The subject vehicle approaches the Primary Lane. (1)
10) The Primary LPR (Land Border Integration) (LBI) captures the front LP of the subject vehicle and the RFID if available in the Primary Lane. (1)
11) The LBI matches the LP or RFID with the scanning IDS record. (1)
12) If a match is not found, the Simplified Arrival Vehicle (SAV) indicates “no match found” and the Primary Officer calls up list of adjudicated but not matched queue on SAV to manually locate the record using a thumbnail picture of the vehicle and license plate.
13) The Primary SAV displays the subject vehicle LP and IDS status as “Suspect,” or “Non- Suspect”. (1)
14) The Primary Officer reviews the vehicle LP and IDS status, conducts interviews with vehicle occupants, inspects necessary documentation, adds notes as necessary, and determines to “Release” or “Refer” in the SAV application. (1)
15) If the vehicle IDS status is “Suspect,” then the Primary Officer selects the “Refer” option in the SAV and sends subject vehicle to Secondary. Note: The Primary Officer must select “Refer” because the vehicle cannot be released until secondary inspection occurs. (1)
16) If the vehicle status is “Non-Suspect” and the Primary Officer determines to “Release” the vehicle, then the Primary Officer selects the “Release” option in the SAV and releases the subject vehicle to exit. (1) Proceed to step 26.
17) If the subject vehicle status is “Non-Suspect” but the Primary Officer determines to “Refer” the vehicle, then the Primary Officer selects the “Refer” option in the SAV and sends subject vehicle to Secondary. (1)
18) The system DS updates the IDS record with the vehicle IDS status. This ends the use case.
Secondary Use Case Summary The use case describes the operation for Type 2 and 3 portals supporting secondary inspection operations when a vehicle has been referred for inspection. Steps on CBP systems external to the Passenger Vehicle Scanning System are included to provide context to the operation and to identify interfaces to CBP systems.
Pre-Condition
1) Passenger Vehicle Control Center Use Case has occurred
2) The Secondary Portal is operating
Post Condition
1) The IDS is annotated with suspect or non-suspect
2) The IDP is documented in the system.
Stakeholders
Secondary Officer, vehicle
Steps
1) This use case begins when the vehicle approaches secondary.
2) The System’s License Plate Reader (LPR) captures the front License Plate (LP) and vehicle image of the subject vehicle. (Note: not all vehicles are required to have front license plates. In addition, front license plates may be placed off to the side.)
3) The Traffic Control Indicator signals the subject vehicle to enter the scanning system.
4) The Traffic control Indicator signals any following vehicles to stop, until the proceeding vehicle has cleared the portal.
5) The vehicle advances through the system and triggers a presence sensor.
6) The presence sensor activates vehicle scanning and starts capturing undercarriage imagery.
7) The vehicle’s movement through the portal is captured from the entrance to the exit of the tunnel.
8) The subject vehicle continues to move through the lane at approximately 5 mph.
9) If the subject vehicle advances at a speed that could potentially expose vehicle occupants to radiation dose above 25 µrem per scan, system stops scanning.
10) If scan stops due to a slow speed (step 9), then the IDS is annotated that the “scan stopped due to slow speed.”
11) When the system detects the end of the subject vehicle:
12) System stops scanning.
13) System stops capturing undercarriage imagery.
14) If the system detects the next conveyance within 5ft of previous vehicle, then treat that conveyance as a trailer to previous vehicle and process it as another vehicle. The scan will be a single scan, but annotated as a trailer.
15) System Screening Portal sends the IDS to Data Store (DS).
16) The DS stores Integrated Data Package (IDS) (see Table 4 Image Data Set (IDS) Content) and adds to the IDS list of secondary LP numbers.
17) The Analyst picks the next IDS available from the secondary IDS list.
18) The Analyst opens the Type 2 secondary image.
19) The Analyst reviews and adjudicates the system IDS.
20) The Analyst selects the IDS status on the HMI as “Non-Suspect” or “Suspect.”
21) If “Non-Suspect” is selected, then the DS updates the IDS record as “Non-Suspect.”
22) If “Suspect” is selected, then the DS updates the IDS record as “Suspect.”
23) If “Suspect is selected, the Secondary Officer prints the IDS for reference during the physical inspection.
24) The Secondary Officer conducts inspection of the subject vehicle based on the Analyst’s annotations and images in the IDS. Note: Inspection may include additional NII systems, K9s, physical inspection, and interviews.
25) The Secondary Officer adds findings and updates status if a “Seizure” is made.
26) The system Data Store updates the IDS record based on the Secondary Officer’s findings.
27) The Data Store stores other non seizure records for 30 days.
28) The Data Store overwrites files greater than 30 days old.
29) This use case ends when adverse action is initiated or vehicle is released.
4 Requirements Requirements are specified using the command imperative “shall.” A requirement statement may contain a (T), an (O), (Future), or just the single requirement statement. The descriptions are as follows:
Threshold (T): The minimum level of operational performance that the Government will accept. A threshold requirement is identified by “(T)” after the requirement.
Objective (O): A level of performance that significantly improves mission performance, safety, or supportability beyond that of the threshold value. An objective requirement represents the desired yield for system performance identified by “(O)” after the requirement. Note: Objective values are not required, but provide guidance to the Contractor with respect to areas where increased capability is of interest to the Government.
Future: Currently the system does not need to meet the requirement. It will not be verified. However, design and build should not restrict or inhibit these future interfaces and integration expansions.
