This publication provides guidance in accordance with Department of Defense Directive (DoDD) 2060.1, Implementation of, and Compliance with, Arms Control Agreem ents, Department of Defense Instruction (DoDI) 2060.03, Application of the National Security Exclusion to the Agreements Between the USA and the IAEA for the Application of Safeguards in the US, and Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Instruction (CJCSI), Chemical Weapons Convention Implementation and Compliance Policy Guidance 2030.01D. This instruction is consistent with AFPD 13-5, Air Force Nuclear Enterprise and Air Force priorities for the Nuclear Enterprise. This publication incorporates the Chemi cal Weapons Convention Base Assistance Team (BAT) Concept of Operation (CONOPs). It applies at USAF-controlled facilities, geographically separated units, and government owned-contractor operated (GOCO) facilities.
This instruction has been revised in order to comply with direction from the Secretary of the Air Force to consolidate, eliminate, and reduce publications and requires a complete review. This revision modifies language to reflect current New START implementation activities; combines AFI 16-608, AFI 16-605, and AFI 16-609 into one document; modifies and updates office titles and symbols to reflect reorganization within AF/A10; and updates roles and responsibilities for each Air Force organization responsible for implementing and complying with arms control agreements. References to the Deputy Chief of Staff, Operations, Plans and Requirements (AF/A3/5) were updated to the Deputy Chief of Staff, Strategic Deterrence and Nuclear Integration (AF/A10). Similarly, references to the Strategic Plans and Policy Division (AF/A5XP) and the Strategic Stability and Countering Weapons of Mass Destruction Division (AF/A10S) were both updated to the Policy and Strategy Division (AF/A10P). Former references to the Strategic Stability and Countering Weapons of Mass Destruction Division (AF/A10S) have also been updated to Policy and Strategy Division (AF/A10P)
Publications state their own changes on page 1 — behind a PDF the official host will not serve to a search engine. This is that section, verbatim. It describes the edition above, not every historical change.
Records in this branch carrying the same series and number — interim changes, guidance memoranda, and unit supplements. A copy stamped with one of these is a different document from the base publication.
