Program Plan
Department of Homeland Security - Acquisitions, Construction, and Improvement Recovery Plan
Updated 05/20/2009
Objectives
Program Purpose
The $98,000,000 will fund shore facilities, aids to navigation, priority procurements and costs to repair, renovate, assess or improve vessels.
$88,000,000 of the appropriation will be used for the construction, renovation, and repair of vital shore facilities that support Coast Guard sector operations and housing.
$10,000,000 of the appropriation will address the Coast Guard's 378’ High Endurance Cutter (WHEC) fleet Engineering Changes (EC).
Public Benefits
The shore facilities funded in the ARRA will create or retain an estimated 180 private sector jobs and enable the Coast Guard to better execute its statutory missions. The number of private sector jobs is based upon Coast Guard Engineering experience in executing similar past projects. The Coast Guard conducted a thorough review of current and past project documentation to estimate the number of jobs to be created or retained.
Repair and replacement of this equipment will improve reliability of these critical ship support systems and extend useful life of these cutters, ensuring the 378' WHECs are available to conduct their intended missions of Search and Rescue, Marine Safety, Drug Interdiction, Living Marine Resource Enforcement, and Defense Readiness.
Measures
The measures have been revised to enrich the performance metrics for Recovery targets. In some instances, targets will not be available until additional baseline data has been collected.

7. HIGH Endurance Cutter (WHEC) Engineering Changes
Projects:
1. Station Coos Bay, OR
Description: The project will provide covered moorings for Coast Guard small boats.
Execution Strategy: This project will be accomplished via a firm fixed price contract. The design and build contract will be subject to full and open competition.
2. Coast Guard Cutter (CGC) Sycamore - Cordova, AK Housing. Description: The project will complete the final phase of a housing project to construct 26 housing units.
Execution Strategy: This project is the fourth phase of an existing contract. An option will be exercised by the Coast Guard to complete the final phase of the project.
3. Station Neah Bay, WA
Description: The project will provide covered moorings for Coast Guard small boats. Execution Strategy: This project will be accomplished via a firm fixed price contract. The design and build contract will be subject to full and open competition.
4. Support Center Elizabeth City, NC

7. High Endurance Cutter (WHEC) Engineering Changes:
These projects will address engineering changes (EC)for the WHEC 378' fleet. These ECs include the top mechanical and electrical system mission degraders and are required to improve existing capabilities and extend useful life of these cutters. They also address auxiliary support systems, safety, and environmental issues.
Review Process
The Shore and Surface Programs will follow established procedures to closely monitor and evaluate the use of the ARRA funds to ensure projects are kept on schedule, and that the accountability objectives of the law are followed. In addition, procedures have been established to allow for the immediate identification and resolution of project related problems or low performance.
Cost and Performance Plan
Internal USCG Transparency:
Project managers will provide a weekly report to Coast Guard program offices that include all the requirements of the ARRA Act as prescribed in Section 1512 of the Act and OMB Memorandum M-09-10.
The weekly reports will include the following:
1. The name of each activity
2. A description of the activity
3. An evaluation of the completion status of the activity
4. An estimate of the number of jobs created and the number of jobs retained by the Contractor during the month to conduct the project’s activities
5. The total cost of each activity, fund obligations or commitments, and balance remaining to complete the activity
Accountability:
The Coast Guard’s Shore and Surface Programs has assigned licensed professional engineers or qualified project managers to each project. The programs developed spend plans that reflect the ARRA funds which will be obligated during FY09 and FY10, and will be obligated before September 30, 2010 to complete eight shore infrastructure projects and accomplish six Engineering Changes on the WHEC 378’ cutter class. The obligation and expenditures will be managed by the project manager and Coast Guard staff. Project managers will ensure each construction phase will be completed on time and as scheduled via the Project Actions and Milestones (POAM) process. This process is described in detail within the Coast Guard Commandant Instruction M11010.14 Shore Facilities Project Development manual (SFPDM). Specifically, Figure 1.2 of this manual shows the AC&I Shore Construction Strategic Calendar.
More specific and current information will be provided through weekly updates from project managers and included in the spend plan and milestone submissions.
Energy Efficiency Spending Plans
Shore AC&I projects are design/build contracts, so the Shore Infrastructure program will meet the sustainability requirements via the contract whenever applicable. However, specific sustainability information will not be available until the "design" phase of each contract is well underway and/or complete.
