Context 
------- 
 
3. (U) The two sides established the CDWG in August 2006 in 
response to the October 2005 Security Consultative Document, 
&U.S.-Japan Alliance: Transformation and Realignment for the 
Future.8 One section of this document identified the 
importance of improving bilateral and defense cooperation in 
response to attacks by weapons of mass destruction (WMD), 
including disposal and decontamination of WMD. 
 
Proceedings 
----------- 
 
4. (U) The Plenary began with a presentation of the After 
Action Report from a CBRN Tabletop Exercise conducted at the 
Japan Air Self Defense Forces Staff College in January 2007. 
The exercise identified policy, operational and capability 
shortfalls in bilateral CBRN defense response, and 
highlighted specific issues for the CDWG to address.  The two 
sides jointly developed a 2007-2008 Work Plan based on the 
exercise results. 
 
5. (U) Highlights of the Work Plan include: a Decontamination 
Seminar in June 2007, a bilateral capability assessment 
conducted throughout 2007, Japanese observation at a Foreign 
Consequence Management Tabletop Exercise conducted for USFJ 
in October 2007, a Medical Response Seminar in October 2007, 
and ongoing meetings of R&D experts.  The next CDWG Plenary 
is scheduled for April 2008 in Washington, at which the two 
sides will present research and development collaboration 
projects. 
 
6. (SBU) The Plenary also featured intelligence briefings by 
each side on the assessed CBRN threat to Japan and globally. 
The two sides presented updates on each of the key events 
highlighted in the Work Plan, and stressed the importance of 
coordinated strategic communications regarding CBRN defense. 
The U.S. side briefed the concept of a Joint Information 
Center, a centralized communications hub that ensures 
information flow in the event of a catastrophic incident. 
Both sides emphasized the importance of close cooperation 
between the military and civilian agencies, and urged 
continued active participation of the relevant Japanese 
agencies and ministries.  The plenary concluded with formal 
adoption of the Work Plan. 
 
Side Discussion--------------- 
 
7. (SBU) During a side discussion Mr. Douglas raised the 
importance of Japan,s contribution to the Proliferation 
Security Initiative (PSI), and thanked his Japanese 
counterparts for their offer to host the next major PSI 
exercise in October.  MOD officials indicated it will be 
difficult to solicit Japanese Coast Guard support because of 
the Coast Guard,s concerns about maintaining good 
relationships with its South Korean and Chinese counterparts. 
 MOD officials, however, reiterated their support for the 
exercise. 
 
8. (U) DASD Douglas has cleared this cable.
