THE ACTIVE COMPONENT (ADOS-AC) CEILING

(series)
B. Financial Resource Management Manual (FRMM), COMDTINST M7100.3
(series)
C. Reserve Policy Manual, COMDTINST MlO0l.28 (series)
1. This ALCOAST announces the FY22 long-term Active Duty for
Operational Support (ADOS) caps as well as designated Cap
Managers.
2. In accordance with REF (A), ADOS is defined as full-time
duty of a temporary nature under 10 U.S.C. § 12301(d) for
purposes other than training. Long-term ADOS is defined as
any period of ADOS that exceeds 180 consecutive days in
duration. Short-term ADOS is defined as any period of ADOS
that is 180 consecutive days or less in duration. REF (A)
further defines the purpose of ADOS as providing the necessary
skilled manpower to temporarily support existing or emerging
requirements of the Coast Guard Active Component (AC).
3. For internal control purposes, a ceiling is maintained on
long-term ADOS-AC to manage the funding and full-time equivalent
(FTE} associated with reserve personnel voluntarily ordered to
active duty. One FTE is equivalent to one reservist on active
duty for one year. In FY22, the total ceiling for long-term
ADOS-AC will be capped at 100 FTE. Sponsoring units are required
to reimburse the HQ centrally managed account for the associated
salary and benefits for each reservist in accordance with paragraph
10 below. Additionally, travel and Permanent Change of Station
(PCS) entitlements associated with the ADOS-AC period are the
financial responsibility of the sponsoring unit.
4. The ability to resource long-term ADOS may vary from year to
year based on the criteria of paragraph 3 of this ALCOAST. Units
with long-term personnel resource needs should consider other
resources from within their base, or developing an on-budget
resource proposal to meet their requirement.
5. Exemptions: The following types of ADOS-AC are exempt from
the FY22 ceiling and allocations described in this message.
    a. Short-term ADOS-AC: Short-term orders must not exceed
180 days total whether as a single set of orders or consecutive
sets of orders. Consecutive short-term orders must have a break
of 31 days or more between each set of orders, unless a waiver
has been authorized in accordance with REF (A).
    b. Enduring Overseas Missions (EOM): Reservists recalled to
long-term ADOS-AC for these operations are supported by funding
specific to those missions. Contact your appropriate Area Title
10 manager or COMDT (CG-ODO) with questions pertaining to EOM
allocations.
    c. Extended Active Duty (EAD): Reservists recalled to active
duty to fill an active duty position on the Personnel Allowance
List (PAL) enter into an EAD contract with the Coast Guard. This
process is managed by Office of Strategic Workforce Planning and
HR Analytics, COMDT (CG-126) and CG Personnel Service Center (CG
PSC-OPM and CG PSC-EPM).
    d. Reimbursable positions: Programs that recall reservists for
long-term ADOS to fill a reimbursable position must follow
established reimbursable billet procedures. Procedures are

Procedures/forms/AllItems.aspx

POC: Ms. Rochita Jackson, COMDT (CG-835).
    e. Other Coast Guard appropriations: Any ADOS-AC funded
from an appropriation other than the Operations and Support
(O&S) appropriation must be approved by COMDT (CG-831) prior
to issuance of orders.
6. FY22 ADOS-AC ceiling: Atlantic Area, Pacific Area, COMDT
(CG-DCMS), COMDT (CG-DCO), and COMDT (CG-8) must stay within
their allocated ADOS-AC ceiling, which is listed in paragraph
8 of this ALCOAST. Resource Advisory staffs are authorized to
further distribute all or a portion of their allocation to
subordinate units.
7. Upon ADOS-AC ceiling approval, Cap Managers must provide
required data to COMDT (CG-832) for long-term ADOS position
creation. Cap Managers must also provide ADOS position requirements
to CG PSC-RPM for solicitation. Once a candidate has been identified
and approved for assignment, CG PSC-RPM will process the PCS
assignment of the reservist to the long-term, temporary ADOS
position and provide relevant information to the member's command/
Servicing Personnel Office for completion of ADOS orders IAW
long-term, non-contingency ADOS assignment processes. Per REF (A),
there are limitations and requirements for members who accumulate
over 14 years of total active duty service. Please see paragraph
10d(l)(e)(l-3) of REF (A) for these restrictions and the associated
waiver process. Commands are advised that funding reservists who
complete over 18 years total active duty service and reach retirement
sanctuary under 10 U.S.C. § 12686 become the financial responsibility
of the unit that recalled them on orders when they passed through the
sanctuary gate until the reservist reaches regular retirement (i.e.,
20 years active duty). Once a reservist reaches sanctuary, they
obtain regular retirement.

    a. Atlantic Area: 20 long-term ADOS positions. POC: LT Michael

9. Funding: Sponsoring units must provide the accounting line

through the cap managers. After orders have been executed,
COMDT (CG-832) will transfer funds from the identified accounts.
