Chapter IV IV-4 JP 3-28 maintenance of military weapons systems, subsystems, and components or parts, to meet US military requirements. The DIB Sector-Specific Plan, developed in collaboration with industry and government security partners, provides sector-level critical infrastructure and key resources protection guidance. The DIB partnership consists of the DOD components and more than 100,000 DIB companies and their subcontractors, who perform under contract to DOD, and companies providing incidental materials and services to DOD, as well as government-owned/contractor-operated and government-owned/government- operated facilities. DIB companies include domestic and foreign entities, with production assets located in many countries. Contrary to common belief, the DIB sector does not include commercial infrastructure, such as communications, transportation, power, and other utilities. These commercial infrastructure assets are addressed by other sector- specific agencies. b. NG CIP teams assess industrial sites and critical USG infrastructure for vulnerabilities to attack. These teams support DOD and DHS by conducting vulnerability assessments of prioritized DIB and DHS sites. The NG has three CIP teams located in the states of Colorado, New York, and West Virginia; additionally, DHS has 18 CIP assessment teams. See DODD 3020.40, Mission Assurance (MA), and DODI 3020.45, DOD Instruction for Defense Critical Infrastructure Program (DCIP) Management, for additional information on roles and responsibilities for DOD components to assure DOD’s critical assets and infrastructures are identified and managed. 11. Postal Services During postal work stoppages or natural disasters and disruption of mail service on a national, regional, or local basis, DOD may be required to provide assistance pursuant to Title 39, USC, Section 411. This may take the form of materials, supplies, equipment, services, and personnel sufficient to permit the US Postal Service to safeguard, process, and deliver the mail in those areas in which normal mail service has been impaired. Legal authority for the employment of military resources to reestablish and maintain essential postal service is found in Title 39, USC, Section 411. DOD provides postal augmentation under an interdepartmental transfer of services. The declaration of a national emergency is a sufficient condition for the selective mobilization of RC forces to support the US Postal Service. 12. Explosive Ordnance Disposal Considerations a. DOD EOD personnel may provide immediate response for EOD support in support of civilian authorities, when requested, IAW DODD 3025.18, Defense Support of Civil Authorities (DSCA), and the military munitions rule. b. Explosives or munitions emergency response may include actions and assistance to civil authorities, when requested, in the mitigation, rendering safe, and disposal of suspected or detected UXO, damaged or deteriorated explosives or munitions, IEDs, other potentially explosive material or devices, or other potentially harmful military chemical
