APPENDIX I
THREAT CONDITIONS (THREATCONs)
I-1. INTRODUCTION. Information and warnings of terrorist activity against installations and personnel of USFK components and subordinate commands will normally be received from U.S. intelligence or security authorities. Information may also come from local police forces, it may be received directly by a command or an agency as a threat or warning from a terrorist organization, or it may be in the form of an attack on a U.S. installation or on U.S. personnel. THREATCONs are DOD approved terms and definitions describing progressive levels of a terrorist threat to USFK facilities and personnel
I-2. AIM. This appendix outlines common THREATCONs for USFK components and subordinate commands to use in force protection and combating terrorism. Appropriate measures to be implemented during each threat condition and implementation criteria are also included.
I-3. DECLARATION OF TERRORIST THREATCON AND IMPLEMENTATION OF MEASURES. Declaration of a Korea-wide THREATCON remains the responsibility of Commander, USFK. The Chief of Staff, USFK will make the decision to change a THREATCON based on recommendations by Force Protection Executive Council (FPEC). Component commands, subordinate commands, and separate agencies within USFK will be advised by the most expeditious means (through CC-Seoul, JPIC, etc) whenever the THREATCON is changed. This is not intended to infringe upon the responsibility and authority of the on-scene commander to initiate whatever action is deemed appropriate for the security of the command. Subordinate commanders may declare a higher THREATCON for their installations/activities as needed, however, they may not declare a THREATCON level lower than the USFK THREATCON.
I-4. WEAPONS AND AMMUNITION. Local orders will include specific instructions on issuing weapons and live ammunition. These orders must comply with existing USFK policies and regulations.
I-5. THREAT ASSESSMENT GUIDELINES. These guidelines apply only to the assessment of terrorist threat against U.S. or DOD interests. These general guidelines provide for uniform implementation of security alert conditions.
a. Assessment factors are defined as follows:
(1) Existence. Applies when a terrorist group is present in an area of concern. Group need not have posed a threat to U.S. or DOD interest in the past.
(2) Capability. Applies when a terrorist group has the ability to carry out an operation against U.S. interests in areas of concern. This includes resources such as intelligence, mobility, personnel, and so forth.
(3) History. Applies when a group’s history of terrorist acts and behavior reflect an anti-U.S. stand or include previous attacks against U.S. interests.
(4) Trends. Applies if the group has, over the past year, displayed significant terrorist activity that appears to be continuing or increasing. Activity need not have been violent; that is, terrorist attack against U.S. or DOD interests could be rhetorical or threatening utterances or statements. This factor could be flexible I it is apparent that the group’s activity cycle is longer or shorter than one year.
(5) Targeting. Applies is there are known plans or confirmed intentions of a terrorist group to target U.S. or DOD interests. Targeting can be either specific or nonspecific. If targeting is not against U.S. or DOD interests, this factor should not be considered.
b. Combinations of positive answers to questions of applicability of any or all of the above assessment factors, as defined, will produce a threat level of either low, medium, high, or imminent.
(1) Low (THREATCON ALPHA). Factors of existence and capability must be present.
(2) Medium (THREATCON BRAVO). Factors of existence and capability must be present; history or trends should also be present. Current targeting of U.S. or DOD interests will not be present.
(3) High (THREATCON CHARLIE). Factors of existence, capability, trends, and U.S. or DOD targeting (not immediate, nonspecific) must be present. History may also be present.
(4) Imminent (THREATCON DELTA). Factors of group existence, capability, immediate/specific targeting of U.S. or DOD interests, and trends must be present. History is not required but could be present. (Assessment of imminent is rare.)

APPENDIX L
SHIPBOARD THREATCON MEASURES
1. Measures outlined below are for use aboard vessels and serve two purposes. First, the crew is alerted, additional watches are created, and security is increased. Second, these measures display the ship's resolve to prepare for and counter the threat. These actions convey to anyone observing the ship's activities the ship is a prepared, an undesirable target, and the terrorist(s) should look elsewhere for a vulnerable target. The measures outlined below do not account for local conditions and regulations or current threat intelligence: The ship's command must maintain flexibility. As threat conditions change, the ship's crew must be prepared to take actions to counter the threat. When necessary, additional measures must be taken immediately. The simple solution to THREATCON CHARLIE or DELTA is to get underway, but this may not always be an option.
a. THREATCON ALPHA (see Appendix I for definition).
(1) Measure 1. Brief crew on the threat, ship security, and security precautions to be taken while ashore.

(8) Coordinate pier and fleet landing security with collocated forces and local authorities. Identify anticipated needs for mutual support (security personnel, boats, and equipment) and define methods of activation and communication.
(9) Measure 9. Tighten shipboard and pier access control procedures. Positively identify all personnel entering pier and fleet landing area---no exceptions..
(10) Measure 10. Consistent with local rules, regulations, and SOFA, establish unloading zone(s) on the pier away from the ship.
(11) Measure 11. Deploy barriers to keep vehicles away from the ship. Barriers may be ship's vehicles, equipment, or items available locally.

High threat areas for travel security. Those terrorist-threatened areas identified by either the Assistant Secretary of Defense for Special Operations/Low Intensity Conflict (ASD/SO/LIC) Memorandum (Subject: Travel Security), the International Threat Analysis Center (ITAC) Monthly Intelligence Summary (MITS), or by the commander responsible for the area concerned.
