Dear Jack :
Senator Paul Laxalt, Chairman of the Appropriations Sub-
co-;.,-.ittee on Military Construction, has written to me seeking
a study of the United States' Command, Control, Communica-
tic s, and Intelligence (C31)systems. 'I would appreciate
your considering whether OTA is able to do the study as out-
lined by Senator Laxalt and-under the conditions he set. If _
OTA can do the study, prepare.a proposal for consideration by
the Technology Assessment Board.
This subject is of great importance, so I request that
.the assessment be given'high priority. Please report as soon
as possible on the impact the study will have on OTA's budget
and its ability to take on additional assessments in the
coming fiscal year.
With best wishes,
TEVENS
Chairman
