SUBJECT . Memorandum from Director, Office of
Emergency Planning (OEP) to Heads of
Agencies Having Civil Emergency Pre-
paredness Responsibilities dated
17 April 1972 (ER 72-2192)
1. Referent memorandum requests CIA concurrence and/or
comments and recommendations on a revision of OEP planning documents
entitled Emergency Documents for Contingencies Short of a Plan D
Situation. These plans have no direct bearing on CIA emergency
planning programs as the Agency is not given specific emergency
responsibilities in the Presidential Emergency Action Documents.
Although we received this as a matter of courtesy and information,
we are expected to provide our concurrence.
2. Attached is our reply for the Executive Director's
signature. For your information, our 1971 response to referent
plans was signed by Col. White (copy attached). I suggest you for-
ward this one to Mr. Colby for his signature to maintain precedent
of our earlier responses.

MEMORANDUM FOR HEADS OF DEPARTMENTS AND AGENCIES
HAVING CIVIL EMERGENCY PREPAREDNESS RESPONSIBILITIES
I request your review and comment on the enclosed Clearance
Draft of "Documents for Contingencies (Other Than a Plan D
Situation) which Justify Application of Emergency measures
on a National Scale."
As indicated in the Foreword and Introduction, these are
draft documents for consideration, adaptation and use in a
wide range of national emergencies other than the sudden,
crippling nuclear attack for which Federal Emergency Plan D
provides the necessary emergency documents.
These draft documents were developed by a subcommittee of
the Interagency Emergency Preparedness Committee. That
group recommended that they be issued as planning documents
in order to:
1. Identify departments and agencies with re-
sponsibility for maintaining the documents in
readiness;
2. Obtain a prior review of the documents to
assure continued applicability and to consider
possible additions; and
3. Provide guidance for agencies responsible
for plans and arrangements should these docu-
ments be issued in time of emergency.
Further information or assistance on these draft documents
can be obtained from Mr. E. J. Quindlen, Assistant Director
for Government Preparedness, 395-5694. A copy of this
correspondence is being sent to your Defense Coordinator.
I will appreciate receiving the results of your review on
or beforA May 26_, 1972.
