Program: Administration

Function

Although the primary mission of the Guard is federally oriented, the U.S. Constitution provides for control of these units at the state level. Even so, in the overall program, 97% of all Guard expenditures are from federal funds, and the remaining 3% is from the state.

The Adjutant General is the top military advisor to the Governor, and oversees the day-to-day operations of the Army and Air National Guard in conformance with state statutes and federal regulations. Because of the statewide location of Army Guard units possessing special equipment, they are available for state missions for civil defense, natural disaster, civil disturbance, and large-scale emergency situations at the call of the Governor.

The doctors, nurses, and trained medical technicians of the Utah Army and Air National Guard provide invaluable emergency backup capabilities for natural and accidental disasters of large proportions.

The Administration Division of the National Guard is the coordinating arm between state and federal programs. The state funded portion of the administrative staff has five full-time equivalents. Those employees are located at the Draper headquarters.

Program: Armory Maintenance

Function

The National Guard facilities within the State of Utah serve many different community oriented functions; protective and responsive service training needs functions; local, state and federal disaster command center functions; as well as troop family readiness assistance centers during times of deployment of our service men and women.

In total the Utah Army National Guard facilities are located in 25 communities strategically placed throughout the state. These facilities include armories, maintenance shops, warehouses and 466 building structures located at the Camp Williams strategic training site. The Utah Air National Guard installation located on the east quadrant of the Salt Lake International Airport includes 53 buildings incorporating 135 acres. Francis Peak has 3 buildings on a 5 acre parcel of land. Many of the armory maintenance personnel are part-time employees.

The National Guard has been proactive in acquiring new facilities and upgrading older facilities to meet the future mission needs of the National Guard. During the last 12 months the National Guard has renovated the following armories; Logan, Beaver, Ogden, and Cedar City. During FY 2013 the second phase of the $26 million TASS complex and the $16 million Bachelor Enlisted Quarters will start the construction phase.

The Utah Army National Guard continues to make energy and natural resource management one of its top priorities to reduce energy consumption and meet the ever increasing cost of electricity and natural gas. Additionally, we are very proactive in aligning our efforts with the mandates identified in the Energy Independence and Security Act (EISA), Presidential Executive Order and the Governors Executive Order. Over the past year we have completed $2.5 million in energy projects at the Camp Williams Training Site, Draper HQ Building and the West Jordan Armory/Aviation Facilities. These projects include chiller plant improvements, boiler replacement, HVAC retrofits, lighting improvements and water conservation upgrades and solar implementation. These improvements will help reduce an ever growing maintenance backlog and begin reducing energy use immediately.
