For example, at the request of Rep. Bill Shuster (R-Pa.), SEC
presented an overview and demonstration in January 2012 on how
JUMPS provides real-time border security and situational awareness
on land and at sea. Shuster, a member of the House Armed Services
Committee, requested information about JUMPS capabilities and
support to Homeland Security and other homeland scenarios.
Shuster was also briefed about JUMPS foreign military sales with
Azerbaijan and expressed interest in using JUMPS as a possible
railroad security solution for the Department of Transportation.

“Thank-you guys for the superb work - it is awesome and is of
great benefit to us,” said NTSB Representative Gary Helmer.
Army Programs of Record
SEC generated a training manual/material for the Radio
Display Operator’s Position system. These documents
were essential in training personnel from the Harbormaster
Command and Control Center on system use. Because
of this forward thinking, U.S. Army Program Manager
Command Posts Systems and Integration funded SEC
to participate on the Integrated Project Team providing
systems engineering and training expertise from design to
fielding and conduct RDOP Training for eight Harbormaster
Active and Reserve Units.

OCONUS, Support
In 2011, SEC supported Program Executive Office for
Command, Control and Communications - Tactical Special
Project Office and SPAWAR San Diego on an effort with
the European Command to perform systems engineering,
facilities upgrades, sensor and communications network
installation, and training that provided the Azerbaijan Navy
with upgraded security capabilities for the Caspian Sea.
SEC coordinated the relocation of all JUMPS equipment
installed previously at the Command and Control Center
to an interim location while preserving its operability and
sustainability. SEC also designed, tested and installed a
wireless network comprised of phones at more than 34
locations; a paging system and very high frequency radio
integration with associated training for both the Azerbaijan
Navy and Air Force.
Hazardous Material Cleanup
SEC provided assistance to the USCG/
NTSB monitoring an oil spill in April
of 2012 at the Paulsboro, New Jersey
refinery and for the December 2012
train derailment and subsequent vinyl
chloride leak in Paulsboro, N.J.
For the Paulsboro Refinery oil spill SEC
provided a remote site to monitor an
emergency containment area holding
approximately 157,000 barrels (6.6
million gallons) of spilled oil, giving them
24/7 coverage due to its renewable
energy capability, said Caswell. Since
JUMPS remote sensor node’s GPS,
weather, AIS and camera sensors
are powered by a windmill and solar
panels, it allowed safe positioning close
to the containment area for effective
monitoring. SEC reconfigured the
remote site to provide the video stream
directly to the USCG/NTSB command
center collocated with the refinery’s
command center.
JUMPS is yet another example of
CECOM SEC’s continual dedication
to produce high quality, innovative,
cost-effective solutions supporting our
national security at home and abroad,
said Caswell.
