2. Desired facility (determined by Contractor with assistance from the 82nd CST as necessary) will be located in the training vicinity identified or local area of 80 mile radius of the training incident and must be adequate enough to exercise the entire response of the CST and meet the training objectives.

3. Each exercise will commence NLT 0700 hours on the exercise training day and will conclude when all phases of the CST operational deployment and IC objectives have been completed or the timeline from the venue/facility management has been exhausted (approximately 12 – 18 hour operational period).

Exact start time will be confidential until commencement (Alert/Notification) of the exercise. 82nd CST will be alerted/notified of exercise start via SD National Guard Joint Operations Center.

4. Exercise will be a free-flowing, full-scale CBRNE response with CST actions driven by the exercise scenario and contractor intelligence/injects.

5. Exercise will be designed to create an environment for the Unit’s Commander to accurately measure the team’s training and proficiency levels.

6. Any laboratory scenes utilized for training should include fully functional lab ware/apparatuses with the exception of any materials, products, or processes deemed illegal by the State of South Dakota, specific facility management team, or the Federal Government.

7. Laboratory scenarios should have any of the following: lab-grade or improvised glassware, hot plates, cooling/heating baths, centrifuge, pipettes, condensers, diffusers, incubators, and/or any other lab item/process deemed necessary by the Contractor; with the exception of any item deemed illegal by the State of South Dakota, facility management, or the Federal Government. (82nd may have access to some of these items).

8. It is the responsibility of the Contractor to receive prior approval from the facility management team of the ‘target’ location/venue, in order to utilize materials or products for simulation during this scenario.

9. The training lane will provide an environment to successfully evaluate the twelve (12) Civil Support Team Mission Essential Tasks during a realistic CBRNE scenario with sophisticated training aids and simulators in order to challenge the CSTs detection and analytical capabilities.

10. The exercise should involve one (1) or more civilian first responder or emergency operations agencies in order to test the cooperation, communication, and coordination of a multi-agency response to a CBRNE, man-made, or natural event/incident/disaster in which the CST would be involved.

Contractors will not contact local agencies without approval of CST trusted agent.

*CST must be able to pick up ‘readings’ while utilizing their organic detection and monitoring devices from stimulants/simulants in order to create a ‘real’ scenario and assist in creating the common operational picture.

**Simply giving verbal readings/numbers throughout the duration of exercises is not sufficient to test and/or provide confidence in the CST CBRNE equipment.

Contractor will provide: Items No: 0010-0030

1. Design of the exercise to meet objectives set by the 82nd Civil Support Team.

2. Each exercise will be designed for an operational period of 12-18 hours of response activity in order to allow the 82nd CST adequate time to employ all aspects of a response; Alert & Notification, Movement from predetermined staging areas in the vicinity of the incident location, PMT/Hot Zone verification, Site Characterization Monitoring & Detection (2-4 entries in order exhaust/stress the CST future plans process and/or personnel; will be negotiated based on CST Commander input, objectives, and outcomes), Sample Retrieval and Analysis, and Re-deployment. Decontamination operations will take place between each down range entry operation along with team briefings and debriefings.

4. Contractor will provide and utilize a staff that is adequate to assist in facilitating a safe and successful scenario as well as providing adequate feedback to all sections of the CST. Contractor will identify in their quote the number of staff, staff positions and duties of staff they will provide for the individual lanes.

5. Development of a written exercise plan and evaluation. The written evaluation format is not specified and is left to the discretion of the vendor. The 82nd CST relies heavily on written feedback and a fully honest evaluation that is quantifiable and can be used as a learning tool to implement change or improvements into the process of the 82nd CSTs incident response. The use of the Army UTL 0300627- 35 will be a very good guide for evaluation.

6. Facilitation of an exercise Hot Wash/After Action Review (AAR) at the conclusion of the operational period/exercise that gives brief observations of CST performance in all phases of the operation as well as Contractor OC/T observations, improvements, and sustained best practices.

7. A written AAR delivered to the 82nd CST no later than 21 days after completion of the exercise in order to utilize feedback for process improvement, best practices, SOP revisions, and TPE preparations.

10. Contractor will facilitate adequate exercise planning meeting(s) to determine CST objectives and venue for the full-scale FTX. At a minimum, one face to face coordination meeting will occur approximately 4 weeks prior to the scheduled exercise lanes at the training location identified.

Additional planning meeting(s) may be conducted via video-teleconference, conference phone call or other means available in order to provide effective and efficient planning in lieu of fiscal and/or time constraints.

13. All Monitoring/Testing equipment necessary for successful completion within the scope of the exercise will be provided and utilized by the 82nd CST.
