SERDP Structure:

SERDP is managed by a Council of 12 members -- the Executive Director (non-voting), 6 representatives from DoD, 3 from DOE, 1 from EPA, and 1 from Coast Guard -- with a senior representative from DoD and DOE alternating annually as the Council Chair.

The Executive Director manages the day-to-day aspects of the Program. To assist the Council and the Executive Director, SERDP relies on its Executive Working Group (EWG) and the SERDP Technical Committee (STC) for each focus area.  The current  SERDP Council and EWG members are listed below. SERDP also solicits the advice of a Scientific Advisory Board (SAB), which is mandated by law to review all proposals requesting $1M or more for any one year.  In practice, the SAB has reviewed SERDP proposals requesting in excess of $900K and all new start projects.
