Long-term ADOS-AC authorized by CG-8 for a given fiscal year as part of the annual ceiling. Fiscal year ADOS-AC ceilings were announced by REF B. b. Long-term ADOS-AC authorized by CG-8 in support of an approved reimbursable agreement. c. Long-term ADOS-RC authorized by CG-R82. 2. The long-term non-contingency ADOS assignment process mirrors the established permanent change of station (PCS) assignment process and is managed within Direct Access. Procedures for long-term non-contingency ADOS are outlined below. a. ADOS requestor responsibilities: (1) The ADOS requestor acquires funding from CG-8 per REF B. IAW REF A, the sponsoring unit or program is responsible for all ADOS costs, such as pay and benefits, travel and per diem, and permanent change of station (PCS) transfer costs (when applicable). Per REF B, requestors must work with their respective ADOS cap managers to request ADOS position creation from CG-8 and submit the approved and funded ADOS requirements to PSC-RPM-2. A valid position number is critical to the ADOS request, as it ensures that funding has been approved by CG-8 for ADOS-AC or by CG-R82 for ADOS-RC. ADOS requestors are required to contact their ADOS cap manager, as identified in REF B. (2) Once funding and position number(s) are acquired, the unit may submit a “Long-term Non-Contingency ADOS Request for Personnel Support” form to: ARL-SMB-LTNon-ContingencyADOS(at)uscg.mil. ADOS cap managers may submit this information on the requestor’s behalf. Allow a minimum of 75 days in advance of the requested start date for sufficient processing. The form is available on the PSC RPM-2 website: https://www.dcms.uscg.mil/Our-Organization/ Assistant-Commandant-for-Human-Resources-CG-1/Personnel-Service-Center-PSC/ Reserve-Personnel-Management-PSC-RPM/RPM-2/ADOS-Management/. (3) If the same non-contingency, non-reimbursable ADOS requirement will exist for three consecutive years, then the sponsoring unit or program shall submit a waiver request to CG-R to continue resourcing the requirement as outlined in article 10.c. of REF A. (4) The sponsoring unit or program must completely exhaust all alternatives to filling an ADOS requirement prior to submitting a waiver request for a reservist they elect as a by-name-candidate who requires a waiver (e.g., 16/18 years active duty, age 60, etc.) IAW article 10.c. of REF A. b. ADOS applicant responsibilities: (1) All applicants, including those currently on long-term non- contingency ADOS, shall follow this application guidance. (2) Interested applicants shall apply for ADOS positions in Direct Access Mobilization System. (3) ADOS applicants must comply with the requirements outlined in article 10.d. of REF A, to include obtaining any waiver approvals (e.g., 16/18 years active duty, age 60, etc.) within the required timeframe. (4) All applicants must obtain Command approval via Direct Access Mobilization System prior to being considered for long-term non-contingency ADOS.

(6) IAW with article 10.h. of REF A, reservists on long-term ADOS must compete for assignment to a permanent position on PAL as part of the deactivation process. Reservists who fail to compete will be released from active duty to the Individual Ready Reserve (IRR) until successfully competing for an assignment to a permanent reserve position on PAL. (7) Reserve members, particularly officers, must carefully weigh long- term career considerations, including potential impact on SELRES assignments, against short-term benefits of performing ADOS, and are encouraged to contact their AO for assignment guidance. c.

(2) Input position data, position requirements, and unit POC information into Direct Access Mobilization System.
