Subcommittee on Defense
The Honorable William J. Casey
Director of Central Intelligence
Central Intelligence Agency
Washington, D. C. 20505
Dear Director Casey:
This is to inform you of a recent security upgrade which will
greatly increase the protection of our intelligence and intelligence
related information. As recommended in your letter of July 9, 1982,
we have completed modification of a vault-type room for the storage
of this material.
Because the Committee still lacks secure communications,
however, I request the installation of a secure phone system at the
earliest possible time. Specifics on the telephone type and loca-
tion can be worked at the staff level with Susan Shekmar on 224-7206.
This telephone will enhance Committee security and facilitate the
timely exchange of information required during the appropriations
process.
I appreciate the continued support of the Intelligence Community
and its efforts to provide the best possible protection of the
Committee's classified information.
With best wishes,
Approved For Release 2008/04/03: CIA-RDP91 B001 35R000500910015-2
