On April 18th thru May 5th, 2017, state, local, and federal organizations alike are planning for Operation Gotham Shield 2017 — a major nuclear detonation drill in the New York-New Jersey area, along with the U.S.-Canadian border. During this exercise, 4 nuclear devices, 2 of which are rendered “safe” during the U.S. Department of Defense (DOD) Vital Archer Exercise, and one successful 10kt detonation in the NYC/NJ area, along with one smaller detonation on the U.S./Canadian border are to take place.
Among the organizations involved are:
- U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) - U.S. Department of Defense (DOD) - U.S. Domestic Nuclear Detection Office (DNDO) - U.S. Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) - U.S. Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) - U.S. Northern Command (NORTHCOM) - State of New Jersey Office of Emergency Management - State of New York Office of Emergency Management - City of New York Office of Emergency Management
Along with many others… Operation Gotham Shield will also include other simultaneous drills and exercises:
- Vital Archer: The annual U.S. Department of Defense (DOD) exercise aligned to the counterterrorism response operations, including weapons of mass destruction, outside the contiguous United States
- Vibrant Response: U.S. Northern Command’s (USNORTHCOM) annual field training exercise for chemical, biological, radiological, nuclear, and high-yield explosive consequence management forces designed to improve their ability to respond to catastrophic incidents
