All - Pls keep close hold.
NEPA team,
Pls see below. I participated in a conference call this morning about the Sec Def's directive to have the Army
support DHS and DHHS with the construction of two facilities for the two Departments to conduct their migrant
housing/detention operations. The initial concept where the Army would just allow the use of the land and DHS and
DHHS would make their arrangements to have the facilities constructed is no longer the case. Under the current
plan, the Army will construct the two camps and once constructed DHS and DHHS will begin operations. We need
to conduct a review to determine what level of NEPA would be required based on the proposed action and what
would be the best method of execution.  Parcel's # 2 and # 3 in the attachment are the sites that could be used for the
DHS and DHHS camps.  Parcel #1 is not Ft. Bliss' preference, but if that parcel requires less NEPA work, the camps
may end up going there instead. As of this morning, the plan calls for AMC's LOGCAP to do the site prep and setup
the camps with all the required facilities.

Subject: support to DHS and DHHS (UNCLASSIFIED)
CLASSIFICATION: UNCLASSIFIED
Team, Fort Bliss has been issued a BPT mission from HQDA to provide support of Department of Health and
Human Services’ (DHHS) Unaccompanied Children (UAC) and Department of Homeland Security’s (DHS) Family
Relocation Centers (FRC).
Scope and timeline is as follows:
- IOC NLT 31 AUG 18 to provide DHHS support for 1,000 UACs. Incremental build up to 7,500 bed spaces (FOC).
- IOC NLT 10 AUG 18 to provide DHS support for 2,000 FRCs. Incremental build up to 4,000 bed spaces (FOC).
Similar to what occurred in 2016, when we supported DHHS at Dona Ana, there will be extensive coordination
between the two agencies, our higher headquarters, and our installation. To that end, I have been directed by
Garrison leadership to establish a core support team for the installation ISO this operation.
Right now, I see that team consisting of representatives from the following activities (feel free to make
recommendations for additions to the core team).
DPTMS CUOPS
DPTMS Protections
G33, 1AD
DPW (environmental, utilities, access to site monitor gate and facilities) DES (Physical Security, FESD and LE)

the primary provider for the site establishment) PAO
I need each agencies primary POC(s) name, email and contact information provided back to me NLT COB
Wednesday, 27 Jun 18.
There is a site survey tentatively scheduled for this coming Friday, 29 Jun 18. Once I finalize that, I will ask that
your representatives be made available to participate. Plan on meeting internally one hour prior to the arrival of the
survey team so I can provide your representatives an overview of the operation and set conditions for a seamless site
survey.
WebEOC will be the primary knowledge sharing platform for this operation. We will let you know when it is up and
operational.
Due to the short time line to get to IOC, there are a lot of different agencies outside of Fort Bliss that have been, or
will soon start trying to direct coordinate with your offices. To avoid friction, gaps, and potential disconnects, all
coordination activity will flow in and out of DPTMS operations (rm 2027, 1AD HQs). If an agency reaches out to
you directly, then in your response, cc me and (b) (6)
, so we can track the action. Not saying
DIRLAUTH is not authorized (it absolutely is), just need you to keep my ops in the information loop, so we in turn
can keep the Garrison Commander and Senior Commander informed (no surprises). To this end, we will implement
daily BUBs in rm 2027 in the near future.
Request you keep the details of this event close hold as it is currently a BPT mission, not an assigned mission ISO of
a HQDA EXORD (we do expect that in the next 48 hours).
