Chemical and Biological Protective Shelter

Benefits

Four CBPSs linked together at FOT in Ft. Drum, NY (above)

Onboard primary and backup power generators Digital touch-screen-operated control system Compatible with JCAD, ACADA, or M8A1 chemical agent detectors Environmentally controlled sustained operation (constant temperature) Fabric shelter resistant to chem/bio agents for up to 5

exposures/decontaminations Systems are capable of being linked together to form complexes of

protected, environmentally controlled medical operations Dual-use system that can support response to natural disasters in the

homeland and also as a command and control center

Summary

The chemical and biological threat is real - Iran, Libya, Syria. The National Guard needs dual-use medical WMD gear with flexibility to

respond to natural disasters. The National Capital Region (NCR) states (to include Maryland) are on the record requesting this equipment.

Industry has made $9 million in investments to prepare for CBPS production. Over 11 states support this program impacting 157 employees directly to include small business, woman owned, and veteran owned.

Industry is in production. To date, Smiths has delivered 38 systems. The need is great for this system and we are ramping up production. Production will be gapped in August 2014.
