SUL L" kJ er P80MOO772A00030 Approved For Release 2005/08/03 ? CIA-RDPOOM00772A000300010057-5 The Director of Central Intelligence Intelligence Community Staff DCI/IC-78/3863 8 June 1978 MEMORANDUM FOR: NFIP Program Managers 25X1 Deputy tote DCI for Resource Management SUBJECT: Spring Review Results 1. The purpose of this memorandum is to provide you my impression of the major points which emerged during the 2 June OMB Spring Review session with the President, the Secretary of Defense and the DCI. 2. During the OMB presentation to the President, it was pointed out that the systems mix on which the OMB level was based was presented as an example only--that it was the DCI's province to develop and analyze the various mix options for Presidential consideration. The President agreed. 25X1 3. No individual program decisions were made at the meeting. The President asked the DCI to consider the OMB recommended FY 1980 NFIP level- as a base figure. The President also agreed to entertain NI-recommended programs above the level in the course of budget preparation. 4. The meeting served as a useful stage-setting as we proceed into program review and then budget formulation. I believe we have been given the flexibility we need to formulate the overall program which best serves the national need without arbitrary adherence to a particular dollar level.

C. 20505 7 June 1978 The Honorable James T. McIntyre, Jr. Director, Office of Management and Budget Executive Office Building Washington, D.C. 20503 Dear Jim: This is to confirm my understanding of the President's decision Friday on the NFIP budget guidance. Although your presentation contained illustrative changes from my proposed program, we agreed that no decisions were made to include or exclude any program items. We also agreed to treat your recommended funding level as the baseline for the FY 80 budget submission. I therefore will submit a budget that pays special attention to justifying, in terms of intelligence benefit to be derived, any proposals for funding above a ZBB cutoff line at that level.
