Action Requested: This memorandum requests that you continue authorization for the home-to-work use of four official vehicles by selected Office of Security personnel in accordance with Headquarters Regulation STAT STAT STAT 2. Basic Data: Headquarters Regulation) , (authorizes the STAT home-to-work use of Government-owned vehicles wnhen the Deputy Direc- tor for Administration determines that official duties of personnel warrant such use. For several years (with a relatively brief interruption) selected personnel of the Office of Security have been authorized to use Government-owned vehicles in commuting between home and work. As discussed in more detail below, such use has been warranted by the official duties and responsibilities of the individuals involved. The officers authorized home-to-work use of these vehicles are: Director of Security Chief, Physical Security Division Chief, Headquarters Security Branch Security Support Division (SSD) Duty Officer Periodically the Office of Security reviews this issue to validate that continuation of this practice and authorization is warranted. The last review of this issue was made in December 1980 resulting in a determination on 7 January 1981 by the Deputy Direc- tor for Administration that the practice was warranted.

Staff Position: Continuation of the practice of home- to-work use of Government-owned vehicles by the incumbents of the above-cited positions has once again been reviewed by this Office. This up-to-date review has reinforced the justification for con- tinuing the practice. The Director of Security is responsible for the physical protection of Agency facilities. He carries out this responsibility through the Chief, Physical Security Division and the Chief, Head- quarters Security Branch. All of these officers are on constant alert to handle emergency situations that occur with reference to the several Agency facilities in the Metropolitan Washington area. These officers are required to respond to such emergencies and must at all times have available transportation for this purpose. When crises arise their response cannot be dependent upon availabili- ty of public transportation nor exigencies of personal vehicle needs. More importantly, the Director of Security, the Chief, Physical Security Division, and the Chief, Headquarters Security Branch in carrying out their facility protection responsibilities are called upon to make frequent. inspections of Agency facilities during nonduty hours (both nights and weekends). Their capability of carrying out these responsibilities and duties is enhanced to the point of virtual need by the ready availability of a Government vehicle equipped with emergency radio equipment on the security com- munications net. The SSD Duty Officer (a roster-type assignment) is respon- sible for handling operational support and personnel security emer- gencies outside of normal duty hours. This emergency responsibility also requires an instant alert capability with ready accessibility to official transportation on the security emergency radio net. The types of emergencies involved in this function and the effectiveness of the response at times would not permit dependence on public trans- portation nor exigencies of personal vehicle availability. The temper of the times reflects that the threat level to Agency installations in the Washington area remains high. Operational support and employee emergency activities also continue with great frequency. The evidence continues to support the home-to-work use of Government-owned vehicles by the Director of Security, the Chief, Physical Security Division, the Chief, Headquarters Security Branch, and the SSD Duty Officer so that these individuals may carry out their official duties in timely fashion and effectively outside of normal duty hours.

Recommendation: It is requested that you continue the authorization for the home-to-work use of Government-owned vehicles by the Director of Security, the Chief, Physical Security Division, the Chief, Headquarters Security Branch, and the SSD Duty Officer in accordance with the provisions of Headquarters Regulation Attachment Reference Deputy Director for Administration Date Distribution: Original - Return to D/Security 1 - DDA 1 - DDA Registry Sanitized Copy Approved for Release 2010/05/17: CIA-RDP87S00869R000200080005-2 Sanitized Copy Approved for Release 2010/05/17: CIA-RDP87SO0869R000200080005-2 Sanitized Copy Approved for Release 2010/05/17: CIA-RDP87SO0869R000200080005-2
