PY-92 Appropriations Act directs that program efforts be directed/divided between foreign assessment; basic and applied research; and operational activities. Funding history: FY 86-89 - total of $6.35M (Army); FY-90 - $0; FY-91 - $2M; FY- 92 -- $2M; FY-93 - $0 (all by congressional adds). FY-94 budget request: $0. Does not include DIA,s costs for direct personnel support to the program. (S) Execen: Majority of funding (75%) is executed through SAIC to support a Menlo Park-based research effort. The monitoring effort is a collaborative effort between the contractor and DIA personnel, but could be performed by DIA alone. DIA support consists of ten personnel, including three e?operational personnel." (U) HJl_J,.Jntprgst: Main supporters have been Sen. Cohen (R- ME) (ardent supporter); Sen. Poll (D-RI) (also strong supporter); and Sen. Glenn (D-OH). Sen. Inouye .(D-HI) is reputed to be supportive as well. (U) Atjtives 1. (U) No change; finish spending the Congressional appropriation. 2. (U) Reduce the effort to monitoring only - i.e., terminate the SAIC research effort. 3. (U) Terminate the program.
