AFRCC-USCG Support
• AFRCC is envisioning an exchange program between the USCG Districts and the AFRCC
• One USAF Officer or enlisted would work at a USCG District RCC for 1-2 years. That expertise would be brought back to the AFRCC to enhance our capability and understanding of USCG SAR.
• USCG would reciprocate with the exchange and that person would take back the experience of working at the AFRCC.
• This program would enhance and educate both the USAF and USCG SAR communities.
13
AFRCC Education
• Site Visits:
• AFRCC is beginning an increased education process for our controllers with visits to:
• ARTCC / FSS• USCG District RCCs• State EOCs / JOCs• Regional Conferences and Exercises• Other agencies AFRCC works with . . .
14
Communications
• AFRCC is receiving two dedicated phone lines into the console for communications.
• Current issues are when base loses communications, AFRCC loses communications.
• With new lines, AFRCC will not be affected by line loss.
• Direct lines from Richmond, VA to AFRCC for web-based SAR program.
15
ISSUES
• IHDB – Activation Reasons• USMCC should provide better guidance on what they are wanting
in that block of the IHDB
• Appreciate the feedback and support from USMCC on our lack of a program to support the FTP framework
