STEERING GROUP ON MONITORING STRATEGIC ARMS LIMITATIONS
14 APR 1976
MEMORANDUM FOR: Director of Central Intelligence
FROM : Edward W. Proctor
Acting Chairman
USIB Steering Group on Monitoring
Strategic Arms Limitations
SUBJECT Report of USIB SALT Steering Group
on Soviet Dismantling and Destruction
of Older ICBM Launchers .
1. The attached memorandum was prepared by the
SALT Monitoring Working Group and approved by the USIB
Steering Group on Monitoring Strategic Arms Limitations.
It reports that the Soviets are failing to meet their
obligations to dismantle and destroy older ICBM launchers
as they are replaced by new SLBM launchers on nuclear
submarines in accordance with procedures agreed in the
Standing Consultative Commission. Specifically, there
are which are not completely
dismantled according to procedures. Dismantling should
have been completed by about 1 March 1976.
2. As you know, information on this subject has
been given only limited distribution in the memorandums
of 3 March and 6 April 1976. Since all members of the
SALT Verification Panel are aware that the subject has
now been raised with the Soviets, however, I recommend
that they, as well as the Chairman of the Verification
Panel, receive copies of this report.
