INSTALLATION RANDOM ANTITERRORISM MEASURES (RAMs) PROGRAM

A2.1. Random Antiterrorism Measures (RAMs) are an integral component to the overall AT program and offers commanders an alternative to full implementation of higher FPCONs. RAMs should be designed to be visible and portray a robust security posture making it difficult for terrorist to discern security patterns or routines for planning or surveillance purposes. They are developed from higher FPCON measures and other site specific measures.

A2.2. DoDI 2000.16, DoD AT Standards and DoD O-2000.12-H, DoD AT Handbook, requires all units including tenant and transient units to participate in the RAM program. Implemented by the Installation Commander, the base RAM program is for the base populace to perform in addition to measures conducted by the installation security forces. Although anybody can conduct RAMs, ATOs/UATOs are responsible to ensure they are accomplished, recorded and reported the Installation ATO monthly.

A2.3. AFI 10-245, Antiterrorism (AT), requires a minimum of three RAMs daily. The EAFB AT Plan sets three RAMs a day for FPCON Normal, five for Alpha, seven for Bravo and ten for Charlie. RAMs are generated and distributed quarterly by the AT Office and sent to unit ATOs. UATOs then either conduct the RAMs themselves or further distribute them to the personnel who will conduct them. In the event of an FPCON change mid-month or implementation of increased RAMs, the AT Office produces and distributes additional RAMs to UATOs.

A2.4. The current EAFB RAM Program states every unit will conduct RAMs on a minimum number of facilities they own (# provided by the AT Office). This number changes monthly. UATOs and commanders can choose to conduct RAMs at more of their facilities at their discretion. RAMs conducted are annotated on a RAM worksheet and sent to the AT Office at the end of the month for tracking and analyzing. Units that do not conduct 24 hr operations are not currently required to conduct RAMs while personnel are off-duty. Other 24 hr organizations fulfill the AFI requirement for weekend and holiday RAMs.

A2.5. Most RAMs are conducted for 30 minutes, while a couple, like conducting a status check of senior leadership, only takes a few minutes. Discrepancies should be reported to the unit commander immediately. Questions regarding Edwards RAM Program can be directed to the AT office at 277-4009.
