Powering Maritime Dominance: A Conversation with ADM William Houston, USN

Please join the CSIS Defense and Security Department (DSD) and the U.S. Naval Institute (USNI) on Wednesday, April 22 from 10:00 a.m. to 11:00 a.m. for a Maritime Security Dialogue event featuring Admiral William J. Houston, USN, Director, Naval Nuclear Propulsion Program, Department of the Navy/Department of Energy. Admiral Houston will sit down with Dr. Seth G. Jones, president, CSIS Defense and Security Department, to discuss the state of the nuclear-powered fleet and what the Navy requires from the industrial base to meet both U.S. and AUKUS demands. Rear Admiral Raymond A. Spicer, USN (Ret.), chief executive officer and publisher, U.S. Naval Institute, will offer opening remarks. The Maritime Security Dialogue series brings together CSIS and the U.S. Naval Institute, two of the nation's most respected non-partisan institutions. The series highlights the unique challenges facing the Navy, Marine Corps, and Coast Guard from national level maritime policy to naval concept development and program design. Given budgetary challenges, technological opportunities, and ongoing strategic adjustments, the nature and employment of U.S. maritime forces are likely to undergo significant change over the next ten to fifteen years. The Maritime Security Dialogue provides an unmatched forum for discussion of these issues with the nation's maritime leaders. --------------------------------------------- A nonpartisan institution, CSIS is the top national security think tank in the world.
