Specifications include, but are not limited to: The Joint Base San Antonio (JBSA) Utility Resilience Study and Report will study community energy and water infrastructures that serve and support the missions of the JBSA – Lackland Air Force Base (AFB), JBSA – Fort Sam Houston, and Port San Antonio. The study will provide the community with recommendations for action and funding opportunities to support projects that promote the mission resilience of JBSA and Port San Antonio, as well as the community. The overall objective of the JBSA Utility Resilience Report, Phase I is to support the long-term resilience and sustainability of missions on JBSA-Fort Sam Houston, JBSA-Lackland AFB, Port San Antonio, Kelly Field, and the surrounding communities. The community impact aspect will place particular emphasis on the critical role Port San Antonio plays in supporting the cybersecurity missions at JBSA-Lackland AFB, backup energy needs for critical water/wastewater infrastructure in the wake of Winter Storm Uri, and the joint-use runway of Kelly Field. An assessment of energy infrastructure, including electrical generation and distribution, backup and alternative energy sources (including backup energy for critical water/wastewater facilities,) natural gas infrastructure, critical loads supporting military missions, community safety and health, and industrial capacity, and communications infrastructure supporting energy industrial controls will be conducted in terms of screening threats, risks, and vulnerabilities (either natural or man-made) in order to identify and prioritize areas of concern that should be the subject of further study and evaluation. Specific focus will be applied to various hazard scenarios including long duration utility outages, cyber and physical attack, and, to the extent possible, projections of impacts on future mission growth for both the military and community.
