The information in this section was developed by U.S. Department of Energy planners to meet Nuclear Weapon Accident Incident Exercise 2014 objectives. This information will drive play at the National level to achieve broader National Exercise Program Capstone Exercise 2014 objectives. The information below is provided as an overview of the scenario ground truth for this event. The detailed nuclear weapons accident scenario ground truth information is for official use only and can be found in the National Exercise Program CAPSTONE Exercise 2014 Scenario Ground Truth For Official Use Only Annex.
5.1 Initiating Event
At 7:00 a.m. local time, a government convoy transporting nuclear weapons travels westbound at 65 miles per hour along a mostly rural section of I-70. The convoy includes three fully loaded Secure Government Transports and requisite escorts. Meanwhile, a tanker truck carrying 3,500 gallons of diesel fuel heads eastward on I-70, traveling toward the Secure Government Transports convoy at 65 mph. The front left tire of the tanker ruptures suddenly as it nears the government convoy. The drowsy tanker driver over-corrects and drives over the median into the westbound highway lane. The tanker strikes the lead transport vehicle’s catwalk—the platform in-between the cab and the trailer—causing the Secure Government Transport to tumble to the right off of the highway. The SGT lands on its tires after completely rolling over once, and the tanker ends up abutting the transport on the side of the road. The force of the impact causes the tanker to crack and begin leaking diesel onto the side of the highway where it pools around both vehicles and catches fire. Flames rapidly engulf the tanker and the transport. The transport’s driver is feared dead. Meanwhile, the driver of the tanker lies face down on the right side of the westbound lanes; he suffered severe trauma and burns after being ejected from the truck cab and landing near the raging fire. Three civilian vehicles are also caught up in the accident. A van with one driver and five passengers swerves to avoid the colliding trucks, but flips and rolls down the embankment. It lands adjacent to the growing fire surrounding the transport. The five passengers are injured and the van’s driver is killed. Additionally, a sedan with only one driver traveling in the eastbound lane reacts to the accident, rear ending a second sedan carrying three persons, including the driver and one child. The second sedan (with passengers) spins out of control and comes to rest after hitting vegetation on the side of the eastbound road. The second sedan’s driver and front passenger cry out in pain, as does the child in the back seat. The first sedan’s driver appears unharmed.

CYBER OPERATIONS
The cyber attacks in the exercise scenario will be against U.S. Department of Defense assets only and were primarily developed to meet Ardent Sentry 2014 exercise objectives. The results and reporting of these attacks will be visible to the broader National Exercise Program Capstone Exercise 2014 audience.
6.1 Cyber Operations
The Cyber operations Joint Master Scenario Events List and other exercise injects will be developed, maintained, and delivered using the Secret Internet Protocol Router Network with “placeholder events” in unclassified JOINT MASTER SCENARIO EVENTS LIST for visibility. If you have questions on cyber operations contact the appropriate North American Aerospace Defense Command –Northern Command White Cell Controller; the number can be found in the Control Cell Phonebook. Background information to support cyber play: The U.S. Northern Command mission of Defense Support to Civil Authorities has led to increased activity by some anti-government organizations. Currently, the most vocal organization is Free Americans against Socialist Tyranny; using social media, they advertise anti-U.S. rhetoric focusing on the Department of Defense as well as to recruit like-minded individuals to join their “cause”. While some Free Americans against Socialist Tyranny members are capable of conducting adverse cyber operations, the greatest threat is current government employees sympathetic to their cause. It is believed that there are employees within US Northern Command, U.S. Air Force, U.S. Army, National Guard, and Defense Information Systems Agency that may support Free Americans against Socialist Tyranny doctrine based on individual comments on social media sites. Free Americans against Socialist Tyranny sympathizers may include both former and current members of the military with training on satellite communications, computer network defense, network operations, as well as military command and control. Recent reductions in force and early separation requirements have raised concern for disgruntled military and Department of Defense civilians. Based on the possible insider threat, the below capabilities could be compromised or targeted during military operations:


Critical commercial and Department of Defense Information Networks communications infrastructure, especially concentration points or nodes, to amplify confusion and “decapitate the enemy control”.


The North American Aerospace Defense Command –Northern Command networks and information technology infrastructure that support command operations


Critical infrastructure and single points of failure within the affected region


U.S. Northern Command plans and responses to events such as those for Defense Support to Civil Authorities response


Means of communications to other agencies. Mark these communications means for later attack, exploitation, and deception or denial of use. It is believed Free Americans against Socialist Tyranny members share their techniques through social media, public accounts as well as networks. Cyber security assessments indicate there is

Scenario Ground Truth 126 TRUSTED AGENTS ONLY
not currently a threat “nexus” to the North American Aerospace Defense Command –Northern Command enclaves or mission systems. It should be noted that any illegal activity is the responsibility of the Federal Bureau of Investigation and other law enforcement agencies. Additionally, this targeting affects personnel using the Network Effects Emulation System. Cyber security assessments do, however, indicate the possibility that North American Aerospace Defense Command –Northern Command personnel sympathetic to Free Americans against Socialist Tyranny have targeted "pre-selected systems" on the North American Aerospace Defense Command –Northern Command Non-classified Internet Protocol Router and SIPR Secret Internet Protocol Router Network enclaves. Some cyber activities will be visible to all participants via the “WNN” or Social Media SIMDECK sites. These activities will include accusations that the government is responsible for the Alaska earthquake and a “hacktivist” manifesto.

Re: DHS FEMA National Exercise Program Capstone Exercise 2014 Scenario Ground Truth
Taken together, these efforts afford National Exercise Program Capstone Exercise 2014 participants an environment to examine the four Principals’ Objectives, coordinate national-level play across the selected exercises, and implement a common national-level and whole community evaluation process. National Exercise Program component events include: Alaska Shield 2014, Ardent Sentry 2014, Nuclear Weapon Accident Incident Exercise 2014, Eagle Horizon 2014, and Silver Phoenix 2014. Table 1 provides a timeline for National Exercise Program Capstone Exercise 2014.

Focus:
Alaska Shield 2014 commemorates the anniversary of the 9.2-magnitude 1964 Great Alaskan Earthquake, and replicates the earthquakes and corresponding tsunami effects, which resulted in significant damage and affected the Pacific Northwest. The exercise will emphasize disaster operations with the first portion of the exercise focusing on the collective ability to share information among local, state, tribal, federal, and other whole community officials; achieve common and accurate situational awareness; and communicate meaningful risk information to the public. As the exercise progresses, focus shifts to unified coordination essential to identifying short- and long-term recovery considerations.
3.5.2 Ardent Sentry 2014


Type:
Full-scale

Duration:
Seven days

Date:
Thursday, March 27, to Wednesday, April 2, 2014

Location:
