M RAM M FOR THE RECORD:
SUBJECT: Meeting with
Building Planning Staff
PPB Contact with the 25X1 A9a
1. In the course of an introductory discussion of PPB/Building
Planning Staff (BPS) relationships noted that he was 25X1 A9a
the PPB coordinator for the support offices. He functions as a
catalyst in pulling office projections together and will assist the
BPS in meeting the Agency Program Call time schedule. He noted that
in the case of planning for a new building we should be particularly
attuned to politically timing our requests for A&E funds, and for
approval of the building and the related funds. His office, in col-
laboration with OLC, can help in judging the propitious time for making
a desired presentation.
2. The Program Call for FY 1972 will be released to the offices
late in 1969. Responses must be submitted to PPB by 1 March 1970.
It is due in the Bureau of the Budget (BoB) by 30 June. Questions
will be sent back to the Agency by BoB along with a fiscal ceiling
by August. The Agency must return to BoB with the CIA budget by
30 September. From 30 September to 1 December meetings are held
with BoB to reconcile misunderstandings, clarify information, and
further justify Agency requirements. (On 1 December 1969 the Agency
will receive its final FY 71 budget allotment). During the first
week of December the DCI may appeal to the BoB or if he chooses may
go directly to the President with an appeal for a greater allocation.
Congressional Budget preparatory work is carried on with congressional
coamiittees between 1 January and 1 February. Then the final budget
is submitted to Congress during the first week of February.
3? noted that requests in late 1968 and earlier
for the establishment of a Building Planning Staff were not acted
upon and that commencing at this late date will make it very difficult
to complete the research and background analysis necessary to the
submission of items such as ME projections by 1 March 1970. He
concurs that if the item is placed in the budget as of 1 March
some leeway might be granted for the insertion of refinements and
additional supporting detail after 1 March but in sufficient time
to be included in the 30 June submission to BoB.
