NOTE FOR GENERAL KULPA

SUBJECT: Talking Paper for the PFIAB Study

Here is a Talking Paper for Mr.

cussing the future of the NRP on July 23.,

Hal Wheeler and Jim Blankenship all concur as

it is now written.

I cannot stress enough the importance of Mr. Plummer

devoting sufficient time in thinking through his remarks.

His appearance before the Panel probably will have the major

bearing on the outcome of the Panel's findings. The determinations of the Panel will set the pattern for the management of satellite reconnaissance for the nelikipeveral years

and it is important that Mr. Plummer unaritihds this. I

suggest that we have at least a two-hour session with

Mr. Plummer before his appearance. I have discussed this

paper with Lionel Olmer at the PFIAB and he believes that

it covers forthrightly the areas of primary interest to the

Panel. I understand also that John Clarke desires to set a

session between Colby, Hall, Allen and Plummer to discuss

the PFIAB Study prior to the principals individually making

theii appearances. If this occurs, we should make sure that

we see Mr. Plummer before hand.

MEMORANDUM FOR MR. PLUMMER

slOs. ,410

SUBJECT: Study of the NRP

For your information, Admiral Anderson's letter of

implementation for the PFIAB study of the NRP is at the

right. Dr. Baker will probably be working on the study

with Dr. Land and two others. We are informally providing to the PFIAB at their request a listing of contractors within the NRO management and industry structure.

We have ascertained that Dr. McLucas' copy of Admiral

Anderson's letter is in his office and no normal Air Force

staffing is planned as of this time.

Although the Board desires to consult with as many

individuals as possible about the NRP, there are relatively

few individuals who possess a keen insight regarding the

management problems.

We are planning a briefing for you to use when the

ad hoc panel desires our input. We suggest that it would

also be useful for you to consider having an informal

luncheon conversation with Admiral Anderson in order to

ascertain his perspective.
