THREATCON DELTA: Implementation applies in immediate area where a threat attack has occurred or when intelligence indicates terrorist action in a specific location is likely. Implementation of THREATCON DELTA normally occurs for only limited periods of time over specified, localized areas. The decision to implement a particular THREATCON is a command decision. It is based on an assessment of the terrorist threat, vulnerability of personnel or facilities, criticality of personnel or facilities, availability of security resources, impact on operations and morale, damage control considerations, international relations and the potential for U.S. government actions to trigger a terrorist response.
