PROCEDURES FOR THE HANDLING OF CHALICE MATERIAL
Project AQUA TONE has now been renamed Project CHALICE. The
following procedures apply to the handling of CHALICE material (maps,
correspondence, graphs, etc.) which is originated outside of the office of
the Special Assistant to the Director for Planning and Development:
1. CHAL log numbers will be assigned to all material containing
substantive CHALICE information. These numbers may be obtained from
DPS/DCI RI (Extension 8079). A white 3"x5" card listing Addressee, Date,
Classification, Originator, Subject and distribution (by copy number) will
be forwarded to DPS/DCI RI for their records.
2. Official File Copy for CHALICE material. The originator is responsi-
ble for maintaining the official (yellow) file copy for CHALICE material. At
periodic intervals the originating office should review its yellow chrono file
(the official files copies). If it is felt that these documents will not be needed
for ready reference, arrangements may be made through the DPS/DCI Security
Office (extension 2548) to transfer these files for permanent storage. The
originator is responsible for the accountability of the each document he
prepares and is thereby responsible for obtaining document and courier receipts.
All CHALICE material is handled on a Top Secret, handcarry basis. This
material may not be passed through any registries. Originator should call
DPS/DCI RI (Extension 8079) for courier pick-up and delivery service.
3. Cover Sheets. Cover sheets will be used for all CHALICE correspond-
ence and CHALICE-classified material. (See sample cover sheet attached.)
4. CHALICE material may be passed to only those individuals who have
been specifically cleared for Project CHALICE. If there is any doubt regard-
ing an addressee's clearance status, call DPS/DCI Security Office (extension
2548).
5. All CHALICE material will be indicated as such by the use of a
rubber stamp on Cover Sheet and first page of document or other material.
