MEMORANDUM FOR: National Foreign Intelligence Board
SUBJECT: Post-NFIB Action on Nuclear Terrorism Papers
1. The NFIB Representatives met on 4 March 1982 under the
auspices of Special Assistant for Nuclear
Proliferation Intelligence, to discuss the NFIB review of the two
memorandums for holders of
Acquisition of Nuclear Weapons
or Materials by Foreign Terrorist Groups for Use Against the United
States." The purpose was to identify and propose remedial action
on national intelligence collection, analysis, or production
problems raised by the papers. ..
2. The following observations and proposals were discussed:
--Intelligence authorities and analysts need to
be kept informed of the actions and policies
of the DoD and military/operational units regarding
storage of nuclear weapons so that these can be
taken into account in any follow-on assessments
and projections of terrorist threats.
--The availability of information about nuclear
weapons storage sites should be
assessed more closely in terms of the kinds
of details terrorists might wish to have before
taking action against such sites.
--The preparation of updated and detailed scenarios
of potential terrorist actions (as previewed in
the memorandums for holders) might be considered in
conjunction with future co=,and-post and other
exercises designed to test US reactions.
