Approved for Release: 2024/08/16 C06789943 � SECKB9-- 1 1 OCT 1989 MEMORANDUM FOR: See Distribution FROM: Frederick A. Turco DO/Chief of Operations for Counterterrorism _SUBJECT: Community Counterterrorism Duties REFERENCE: NIC #00954/1-89, dated 19 September 1989 1. With the_transfer to the Counterterrorist Center of Community responsibilities previously belonging to the NIO/CT, I wish to describe how we are organizing the job in CTC. We have created a Community Coordination Group (CCG) within CTC to handle Community business. It will be comprised of an SIS (SES) level chief, a senior assistant (GS-15), a junior assistant (GS-12-14), and an executive secretary. We also anticipate the need to hire one other assistant to help define and administer Community database business. 2. Pending selection of a chief of the Community Coordination Group I have assigned my Deputy, Karl Ruyle, the task of fulfilling CTC's Community responsibilities. He has scheduled a meeting of the Interagency Intelligence Committee on Terrorism for 23 October. The CCG represents a significant augmentation of resources devoted to Community business which, I believe, will be able to build on the fine record of the NIC. ---WARNING NOTICE--- INTELLIGENCE SOURCES AND METHODS INVOLVED SECRET Approved for Release: 2024/08/16 C06789943 . � r Approved for Release: 2024/08/16 C06789943 SECRET SUBJECT: Community Counterterrorism Duties Distribution: � DDCI C/NIC NI/A? � NIO/EA NIO/ECON NIO/EUR NIO/FD/A NIO/GPF NIO/LA N/O/NESA NIO/S&T NIO/SP NI/USSR NIO/W DDO ADDO C/A?
