However, in the last few years increased demand for department and agency sites, in the face of reduced availability, has created serious conflicts that could lead to their being compromised. Therefore, in National Security Decision Directive (NSDD) 306, the President has assigned me the responsibility of establishing a national repository for ERS information, along with a central approval and coordinating mechanism for locating, acquiring, and maintaining sites. (TS)' In preparing for this responsibility, I would like to elicit your assistance in establishing a broad base of criteria for the procedures that will be used to collect, archive, and deconflict ERS. This will be accomplished utilizing the Contingency Planning for the President (CPP) process described in NSDD 237. I have directed Colonel Charles Krulak, Chairman of the CPP Steering Group, to establish a subordinate interagency working group under the direction of the CPP Steering Group to assist me in developing a viable and fully coordinated ERS program.

(TS) Colonel Krulak will be contacting those individuals who previously identified themselves as their agency point of contact for ERS coordination (attachment). The first meeting of the group will be held in early June. (TS) JAMES C.
