14.10.1.1. (Added) 21SW activities that provide host unit responsibilities for flightline operations will establish a CDDAR program IAW AFI21-101. Aircraft recovery procedures must be tailored specifically by each host base in order to address capabilities unique to its location.

These procedures must be developed and collaborated jointly with all applicable host and tenant units and published in an Installation Publication or supplement to AFI21-101.

14.10.1.2. (Added) 21 SW/CC will:

14.10.1.2.1. (Added) Implement policy, plans and agreements to ensure compliance with established recovery programs.

14.10.1.2.2. (Added) Provide personnel/equipment/funds required to perform CDDAR operations. This includes funds to pay for any overtime that may be incurred by other DoD organizations such as Air Force Reserve personnel or contracted operations.

14.10.1.2.3. (Added) Maintain overall responsibility for recovery of host/tenant crashed, damaged, or disabled aircraft.

14.10.1.2.4. (Added) 21 CONS will provide contracting support for specialized equipment as necessary to support aircraft recovery operations, to include GSUs where 21 CONS provides support.

14.11.1. (Added) 21SW units that service or maintain aircraft (such as transient alert activities) will develop a Dropped Object Prevention (DOP) program IAW AFI-21-101. A wing DOP monitor will be appointed by the WG/CV.

14.11.1.1. (Added) Units will appoint a local DOP monitor to provide training requirements as outlined in AFI21-101.
