MEMORANDUM FOR: Director of Central Intelligence
VIA: Deputy Director of Central Intelligence
Director, n e igence Community Staff
SUBJECT: FY 1982 Authorization Appeal
1. We are preparing your appeal to the authorization conference on the
FY 1982 NFIP budget request. The purpose of this memorandum is t vise you
of the status and to give you a preview of the expected outcome. 25X1
2. Status: We have received submissions from the Program Managers and
are assembling a draft that should be ready for your review by Thursday,
2 July. Community coordination following your review is likely ~?-~~ a fairly
simple matter since there is nothing contentious in the appeal. I I 25X1
3. Content:
? a. The appeal will argue for the budget request approved by the
President. In those instances when Congress had added resources
unilaterally, we are respectfully declining them. Program Managers
generally argue against cuts but tend to accept demurely unsolicited adds.
25X1
b. The appeal will consist of a covering letter for your signature
and a set of one page attachments prepared in the format which we have
used for several years and which the committees have come to expect. The
covering letter is designed to impart a sense of priority to selected
items. This year, the items of highest priority are the money for the
I land restoration of the cut proposed 25X1
in ULA"s external analysis Tun ding. Other programmatic cuts we expect to
mention in the covering letter are the HPSCI's proposal to reduce CCP's
processing equipment procurement and IC Staff manpower. 25X1
c. We will r Tonal money proposed for
additional manpower that goes 25X1
acquisition of anrup
beyond the Presid uest in v r programs, additional funds for
backup launch vehicles (already elimin ices

d. At the request of OMB, the letter will address some of the
legislative provisions (DIA executive service, the cryptologic reserve,
grants to colleges and universities, and CIA overseas benefits) assuming
we receive and agree with OMB's arguments. Finally, we will request
relief from some of the deadlines imposed for reports or studies and
clarification of what is requested on others.
4. The conference has not yet been scheduled. Most staff members do not
expect it to take place until after the summer recess. The HPSCI and SSCI
staffs appear to be satisfied with the schedule we have proposed for the
appeal. They have asked for informal discussions prior to our final appeal and
have already been given a reconciliation spread sheet with which to work. Once
signed, ll provide courtesy copies of the appeal to the HAC and SAC
staffs
5. We do not expect major problems with the appeal. There is very little
at risk, in fact, and we believe we can make a strong case against the one or
two proposed cuts that really matter.
