SUBACT: NRO Staff Reorganisation

•

For several months we have been working on a reorganization of the

NRO Staff in connection with reorganisations of .the Headquarters elements

in the Department of Defense as directed by the President. The purpose of

the reorganization is to reduce the number.of organisational elements,

reduce the number of people as ? jned to Headquarters functions, and to

improve the operation of tho tail.Sxaff.

The policy-making element of the NRO shall be the Director, Rational

Reconnaissance Office, with the advice of the NRO Management Council.

The DNRO will chair the Council whose members shall be the Deputy Director

SRO, the Director of the NRO Staff, and the Directors of Programs A, B,

and C. The Council shall meet at least four times a year and will formulate

the programs and policies of the NRO.

% •

The PRO Staff will comprise three major elements:

I. The Directorate of Liaison and Administration will serve as

the staff interface on policy and administration matters between the SRO

and other members of the Executive Department (e.g., NASA, NSC, and ACDA),

provide administrative support for the NRO headquarters, and assist the

DNRO with security policy, procedures, and practices. The Directorate will

oversee the management of all secure communications for the NRP. The

Directorate will also serve as the focal point for the NRO on all public

information matters.

2. The Directorate of Programs and Budget will assist the DNRO

in formulating fiscal guidance to the Program Offices, developing the NRP

budget and implementing the fiscal program of the NRP. They will maintain

interface with the Congress and programming and budgeting elements of the

Executive Department.
