DIRECTOR OF CENTRAL INTELLIGENCE
Technology Transfer Intelligence Committee
TTIC-C-090 (Revised)
16 December 1982
1. As per our earlier discussions, attached are some materials
detailing what the costs to the Intelligence Community Staff would be in
FY 1984 and the following years if the IC Staff became the administrative
home of the staff of the Technology Transfer Intelligence Committee.
2. Similar costs are now being covered by other elements of the
Intelligence Community, of course, and particularly by the Intelligence
Directorate of the Central Intelligence Agency. The TTIC staff now resides
in the Office of the CIA/DDI: Three slots earlier were transferred by the
CIA/DDO, and several slots have been made available by the DDI. Slotting
problems remain, however, and several of the senior positions in the staff
are now carried in various "development complements." In addition, the
staff includes three "non-reimbursable detailees" (FBI, DoD, and CIA/DDO),
and we understand slots would have to be found for these people if the
TTIC staff moved into the IC Staff.
3. You should be aware that there are special costs expected to
be incurred during the FY 1983. For example, the TTIC staff is "scheduled"
to move from Key to Ames Building in February/March 1983, and some costs
(e.g., for furniture and the like) will be associated with that move.
Further, considerable overtime now is being expended to load a Community
data base for TTIC/COMEX. That will continue all of FY 1983 but is
expected to be completed in mid-FY 1984 (and the attached materials
reflect this smaller amount). In addition xpect to receive some
additional equipment (e.g., CRT) in 1983. 1
4. We are prepared, of course, to discuss these projected costs
with you at your convenience. rI

TTIC Secretariat FY 1984 Program
I. The mission of the Technology Transfer Intelligence Committee (TTIC)
is to serve as the focal point within the Intelligence Community on all
technology transfer issues. The Committee coordinates Community activities
and is the principal source of intelligence support for those US Government
entities charged with the responsibility for policy and action on technology
transfer issues. It works with other Intelligence Community committees and
appropriate agencies to ensure that intelligence information collected on
technology transfer is consistent with the DCI's priorities and guidance and
meets the needs of Community production organizations.
The TTIC has two subcommittees - the Committee on Exchanges (COMEX) and
the Export Control Subcommittee (EXCON). COMEX ensures coordination of
Intelligence Community interests in US Government official exchanges and
bilateral cooperative agreements, in other exchange arrangements, and in
commercial visits and other related activities. It is concerned with
technology transfer and intelligence implications of the programs and
itineraries of visitors from the USSR, Eastern Europe, China and other
countries as appropriate.
EXCON, also under the general guidance of the-TTIC, ensures coordination
of Intelligence Community interests related to export control issues. It is
concerned with the technical data/technology transfer and intelligence
implications of proposed sales and apparent trade diversions of US origin and
other Western technology to destinations which are "proscribed" for national
security reasons or countries whose interests may be inimical to the security
of the United States and its allies.
The TTIC Secretariat accomplishes the day-to-day work of the Committee
and the two Subcommittees, drawing on the technical expertise of Community
analysts. It also supports the myriad of working groups created to do special
tasks (e.g., collection guidance working group, data base working group,
counterintelligence analytical support working group, China study group, etc.)

25X1
NOTE: At the end of FY 83, the Secretariat still will have only 6
slots. Four professionals, including the three managers, are being carried on
various developmental complements. Three others are non-reimbursable detailee
(1 from DDO, 1 from Army and 1 from FBI). Also, for the purpose of this
exercise, the two part-time clerks we have now are being shown as one
full-time slot, a change we hope to make in late FY 83 or early FY 84. In
FY 85 we will need a part-time clerk to help maintain the manual files, a
function being performed by the overtime crew when loading the automated
system.
Overtime
A large overtime crew (20 people) is involved in loading the COMEX
automated data base. We hope that this task will be completed by
mid-CY 1984. We anticipate needing some overtime after 1984 to handle
priority projects on a timely basis. Also, because we are just developing the
EXCON automated data base(s), we are not sure if we will be able to load both
COMEX and EXCON data bases on a real-time basis without resorting to overtime.
Consultants
Funds are required to support a TTIC/COMEX Advisory Panel of
academicians. This Panel, to be formed in FY 83, will consist of 15
individuals and will meet twice a year. It is anticipated that selected
individuals will be invited in for private consultations between meetings.
Such a group was recommended by the Panel on Scientific Communication and
National Security to the National Academy of Sciences. Its purpose is to
facilitate more effective communications between the universities and the
appropriate federal agencies regarding scientific exchanges.

III. Non Personal Services
Travel/Transportation - Persons (TDY Domestic)
Fulfilling the TTIC mission requires that the TTIC Staff travel with the
Committee and Subcommittees to national laboratories, such as, Lawrence
Livermore National Laboratory, and the Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory,
and to high technology firms throughout the United States. Such trips expose
members and staff to the latest technologies and allow them to interact with
individuals who host foreign scientists or who sell technology to
foreigners. Other domestic trips are required to educate groups around the
country about the "technology transfer threat." Only COMEX will likely
sponsor a trip in FY 83 (it took place in October 1982). The increase in
FY 84 is to allow Secretariat personnel to participate in TTIC-and
EXCON-sponsored trips in addition to one sponsored by COMEX.
Travel/Transportation - Persons (TDY Foreign)
These funds provide for four trips annually, primarily to educate our
allies about the technology loss threat from visitors from Communist countries
and to help them establish COMEX-like and EXCON-like mechanisms to lessen the
threat. Also, some travel may be required in support of the US COCOM
delegation and to participate in NATO-sponsored technology transfer forums.
Travel - Other - General
A large amount of Washington metropolitan travel is required of the TTIC
Secretariat. Funds are needed for POV and public transportation
reimbursements.
GSA Repair - Real Property
We have no requirements in this category at this time for FY 84 and
beyond. The Secretariat is scheduled to move from the Key Building to Ames
Building during the first half of FY 83. Costs of renovations, if required,
at Ames and new furniture requirements will be borne by the DDI.
Equipment Rental
In FY 83 this category includes MAG two typewriters, one NBI dual unit
system, and a Xerox 4000 copier. In FY 84 funds are included for the addition
of another NBI terminal, Diablo printer, and option packages.
Equipment Purchase
FY 83 funds are for an additional Delta 5000 terminal. FY 84 funds are
for the acquisition of a terminal to access the Defense Technical Information
Center automated data base. FY 85 funds are for another Delta 5000 terminal.

floppy discs) associated with word processors.
External Training
Training funds required to stay abreast of technological developments and
to manage more effectively the TTIC Secretariat.
External Analysis
These funds are for contractual support (to begin in FY 83) to run two
major technology transfer seminars per year involving top government,
industry, and academic personnel. Included is the cost of publishing the
results of each seminar.
