NISCINST 3120.1A BOARDS, GROUPS, AND COMMITTEES 300. BOARDS, GROUPS, AND COMMITTEES A board, group, or committee is an assembly of persons formally organized under a president, chairman, or senior member to deliberate and evaluate a problem or situation and make recommendations to proper authorities for its solution or improvement; sit as a judicial body; or sit for other purposes as Girected in the order establishing the board or committee. They are policy working groups and should not normally be assigned functions requiring supervision or direction. Officers and, in some cases, enlisted personnel and civilian employees are assigned to boards and committees as a collateral duty by the Commanding Officer or Executive Officer, and notification of such assignments will normally be effected by publication in a NISC notice. Any limits or special conditions governing the performance of the duties assigned will normally be set forth in a formal letter to members of the board or committee. 301. AWARDS BOARD The Awards Board will be responsible for assisting the Commanding Officer in evaluation of recommendations for awards to personnel serving under his jurisdiction and to ensure compliance with all directives of higher authority pertaining to all awards. In addition, the Awards Board is responsible to the Commanding Officer for implementing a system (within the guidelines of higher authority) to recommend approval or disapproval and amounts of awards to be paid by the Navy Incentive Awards Program. a. The board will be composed of two or more officers designated by the Commanding Officer, one of whom will be disignated as the incentive awards officer. b. The Awards Board will be responsible for: (1) Inquiring into and analyzing all recommendations for formal or informal awards which originate onboard NISC or which the Commanding Officer is required to review.

Conduct such further investigations of the matters referred to the board as may be necessary to obtain a fair and impartial appraisal covering all phases of the matter to the end that a comprehensive, accurate, and unbiased report on the matter can be made to the Commanding Officer or to higher authority for any action that may be requirec. by the circumstances of the case. Reference: JAG Manual. 303. NFIB COMMITTEES AND WORKING GROUP MEMBERS Members of UFIB committees, sub-committees and working groups are selected because of their experience ami expertise to represent the Navy as well as NISC. They are representatives of all naval intelligence, i.e., NISC, NIC, etc., during their meetings and will act as the point of contact between Navy elements and other members of their respective committees. The DNI requires that positions taken by ONI members on UFIB groups be identified for him and members of his staff as rapidly as possible following committee meetings. A minimum number of NISC personnel should normally attend a DCI sponsored meeting. In this regard, NISC personnel who: a- Attend committee meetings as principals will provide a short Memorandum for the Record (MFR) after each meeting which summarizes the topics discussed, actions assigned and taken, etc. ‘This MFR will be addressed to the DNI, 3-2
NISCINST 3120.14 attention OP-009Z ari OP-00942. When appropriate, the MFR will provide recommendations to which DNI can concur/non-concur or request that the member inmeet with him to discuss the issue. MFRs will be concurrently Gistributed to: (1) the Commanding Offier, Executive Officer, and Technical Director: (2) to appropriate department heads; and (3) to COMNAVINTOCOM. MFRs may, in some cases, be used to forward only the minutes of the committee meeting. Keep the chain of command informed: b. Attend sub-committees/working groups as principals will provide a MFR to the applicable Navy committee member (or sub-committee member as appropriate), who will determine whether it should be further routed to the DNI/009Z. MFRs will be distributed simultaneously to cognizant department heads. Members amd alternates are responsible for keeping their department heads aware of the action/deliberations of their various committees/sub-committees and for obtaining their preliminary approval for all member actions and tasking resulting from participation in committee/sub-committee deliberations. Members/alternates are not expected to be either the authority or to have the answer to all issues addressed by a committee/sub-committee/working group. In cases where they are not the expert, they should defer action and bring in other Navy assets as required to address the particular tonic at hand. Following all coordination, deliberation and guidance, the member's position will be provided to the committee/sub-committee as representing the position of his principal, the Director of Naval Intelligence. Members will not take on significant tasking without first determining the impact on naval intelligence assets. No major tasks/issues will be taken on by NISC personnel without the approval of the Commanding Officer. If accepted, tasking will be done by the member through established channels amd fully supported by NISC assets. Other naval intelligence assets should elso be tasked for support as required. 304. CONTRACT AND EXECUTION REVIEW BOARD The use of external assistance to support intelligence production has grown significantly over the last few years. At the same time the guidance, from both a legal and procedural perspective, has become increasingly complex and restrictive. Present policies discourage the use c* sole source procurement. Although there are numerous difficulties associated with competitive procurements, significant improvements of our position can be made by targeting specific ongoing tasks for competition. Since past contracting information is important for projections and the identification of problem areas, this command must also collect, analyze and maintain adequate records. To ensure awareness of Department of the Navy contracting policies and promote the use of competition for external assistance procurements, the Contract and Execution Review Board (CERB) was established. The Technical Director is the Chairman of the Board. Other members may be appointed as necessary. All purchase requests for external assistance, including the 3-3
NISCINST 3120.1A transfer of funds to government laboratories, shall be reviewed by the Board prior to submission to the Commanding Officer or transfer of fumis. All sources of funds, both programmed and reimbursable, are inclided. 305. SCIENTIFIC AND TECHNICAL INTELLIGENCE DATA RASE ADVISORY GROUP The command currently has a myriad of in-house data bases that are used to support the intelligence analytical and production process. Included are the Multi-User Intelligence Data Acquisition System (MIDAS), the Central Electromagnetic Data Library (CEDL), the command Position Data Base (CPDB), and various acoustic, imagery and management data bases. The utility, currency, interoperability of and resources devoted to these data bases varies widely. The command also has long-standing or potential requirements to provide scientific and technical data base inputs in support of Naval Intelligence Processing System (NIPS), the TACTICAL Flag Command Center (TFOC), the Ocean Surveillance Information System (OSIS), and the Naval Warfare Integrated Simlation System (NWISS). Ideally, analysts should input scientific and technical information only one time ani the information could then be used by all consumers, both internal and external to the command. The Scientific and Technical Intelligence Data Base Advisory Groun, chaired by NISC-OOW and composed of members from NISC-000, NISC-50, and NISC-30, is established to correct data base deficiencies, sort out conflicting data base requirements, and provide the senior decision-making levels within the command with recommended courses of action relative to data base management. The Advisory Group will meet as necessary, but at least quarterly. All departments will support the Advisory Group with briefings and back-up material as required. 306. NISC BENEFIT ASSOCIATION The NISC Benefit Association (NBA) is established as a non-profit organization to maintain a benevolent, social and recreational organization for the benefit of its members. The NBA will hold annual elections for officers (president, vice-president, secretary and treasurer). These elected officials shall transact all NRA business, and make and amend rules ani regulations concerning the use of NBA monies. Membership is composed of every NISC employee. Revenue for NBA activities is derived from profits realized fram designated beverage machines located within the command. 307. EQUAL EMPLOYMENT OPPORTUNITY (EEO) COMMITTEE The Equal Employment Opportunity Committee acts as an advisory groun to the Commanding Officer in all matters relating to the functions assigned to the committee. The committee membership will be in so far as possible, representative of the minority, majority, male, female, age, haniicapped, and grade level distribution of NISC employees. Department and staff element heads, in collaboration with the committee chairperson, will ensure that their committee appointees satisfy this distribution criteria.

NISCINST 3120.1A CHAPTER 4 re TASKING AND PRODUCTION 400. CONCEPT OF NISC PRODUCTS The concept of NISC's production effort is to provide the highest quality intelligence products to consumers in accordance with the following four-echelon plan: First Echelon Weekly Wire (Part I), ACINT Newsletter Second Echelon Periodicals - NAVSTIR, CNO Point Papers, Missile Matrix, Briefings Third Echelon NITs, NITAs, FMERs, BIIRs Fourth Echelon Scheduled DIA Products, NWPs, Threat Assessments First Echelon products are intended as the initial notification to consumers of new developments. Second Echelon products (except for the NAVSTIR), are to be succint, comprehensive updates of threat characteristics. The NAVSTIR provides the vehicle for initial dissemination of photographs/graphics. Third Echelon products provide for the dissemination of Navy assessments and technical/analytical observations, normally on a non-recurring basis. Fourth Echelon products serve as comprehensive reference documents which should incorporate, when appropriate, information previously disseminated in other echelon products. The Production Review Coordinator, under the guidance of the Production Review Group (PRG), will provide oversight to this effort. Recommendations for new products should be submitted to the PRG through the Production Review Coordinator prior to commencing draft production. 401. OVERALL PRODUCTION GUIDELINES a- NISC routinely produces Weekly Wires and publications or substantive intelligence which require interdepartmental input and coordination. Comprehensive research and, in many cases, detailed analysis of a scientific and technical nature is often required. In order to foster interdepartmental cooperation and coordination, it is NISC policy that when a support analyst has contributed 20% or more of the analysis and text, he/she shall be considered a co-author. It is the responsibility of the lead department to ensure that support analysts receive recognition for their contributions. b. Scientific and technical intelligence products of this command oonsist of various studies, trend analyses, reports, handbooks, and periodicals designed to satisfy consumer requirements for intelligence on foreign developments of naval interest. The Defense Intelligence Agency levies the tasks for most of these products, sets mutually agreed upon deadlines, and determines the format and review procedures to be followed during the production process. c. NISC-60 and the responsible production department should ensure that NISC products contain both U.S. and metric units of measure, change bars where appropriate, validation date and statements on nonrecurring hard copy products, distribution lists, tabs as required, and three-ring binder holes (for Second and Third Echelon products.) Products should be stapled or bound

By completing that form, Pargraph 2.a. enables the analyst to submit the reasons for his non-disclosure recommendation, and paragraph 2.b. removes the requirement for the analyst to make determinations for which he is not adequately informed. Numerous exchange agreements, quid Pro quo arrangements, etc., exist which are unknown at the NISC analytics! level. By checking the item as releasable, the disclosure decision becomes a NIC-03/CNO-OP-009P responsibility. No further inquiries need be directed to the originating analyst. Paragraph 4 enables the analyst to make his own recommendation. (9) Submission: Items for the SECRET version and codeword supplements (if any) of the Weekly Wire Part I, prepared in accordance with the format for Weekly Wire submissions, will be submitted to NISC-OCOW prior to close of business each Friday. Each line department is expected to submit Weekly Wire articles each week. In addition, NISC-OOW will periodically initiate inter-departmentai tasking apprising line departments of significant topics meriting Weekly Wire articles. (10) Preparation: Upon receipt of proposed Weekly Wire articles, NISC-OOW will conduct editorial review and revision to ensure the completeness of content, quality of analytical presentation, uniformity of format and consistency of style required to ensure excellence for the Weekly Wire. A draft of each article will be prepared in accordance with this instruction. Copies of these articles will be provided to each department head, the Technical Director, the Operations Officer, ami the Consolidated Security Office by 0900 each Tuesday. Any further actions concerning articles which are directed as a result of a Staff Meeting must be accomplished directly following the meeting in order that the Weekly Wire can be prepared for release. (11) Release: The final message version of the Weekly Wire Part I and supplements will be prepared by NISC-OOW as prescribed by the Department of the Navy Telecommunications Users Manual (NTP-3(E)) and by the communications organizations to which they will be submitted for transmission. The final copies will be submitted to NISC-OOW, the Technical Director and Executive Officer for review in time to reach the Commanding Officer for release by 1600 each Wednesday. In the absence of the Command ing Officer the Executive Officer or his designee will release the message. (12) Addressee List: The addressee list of the Weekly Wire constitutes Address Indicator Groups (AIG) 157, 176 and 6853. NISC-OOW is responsible for all administrative management actions necessary to ensure the accuracy and appropriate use of the AIG's. The following actions will be taken by NISC-OOW as required by and in accordance with Department of the Navy Telecommunications Users Manual (NTP-3(E)): (1) periodic reivew of AIGs 157, 176 and 6853 to confirm a continuing requirement and current address composition; (2) preparation of modifications, cancellations or recapitulations of AIGs 157, 176 and 6853.

(3) Assessment ~- the body of the paper which includes relevant background and/or descriptive information, evidence and judgments yielding the assessment, supportive graph}. «vl tabular material, and conclusions. (4) Implications . «cements of the significance of the assessment in terms of the expected results, both immediate and far reaching, based upon the conclusion of the assessments. b. Topics for the NITA may be indicated by the DNI, COMNAVINTCOM, or they may be generated within NISC. 4-10
NISCINST 3120.1A c. Any department may initiate a NITA, but that department then assumes responsibility for NITA preparation and coordination. The general procedures for preparing a NITA includes: (1) Establishment of tasking need and notification of Production Review Coordinator. (2) Approval of inputs (preliminary or final) by Department Head. (3) Edit by NISC-60. (4) Obtain chop from appropriate NISC departments. (5) NISC-OOW review to ensure that the assessment complies with NISC position and NITA format. (6) Preparation of camera copy by NISC-60. (7) Review of camera copy by NISC-OOA, the Executive Officer, and review and approval by the Commanding Officer. (8) Print amd disseminate NITA. dad. Action: All departments are enjoined to become familiar with and adhere to the guidelines established. The Production Review Coordinator should be contacted for resolution of procedural problems. 402.5 NAVAL INTELLIGENCE TECHNICAL SUMMARY (NITS) a. The NITS provide an informal means of disseminating discrete analyses or bodies of technical data - generally of interest to only a limited number of customers. Subjects range from handbooks and data ampendiums to briefing notes. NITS are products of analyst initiative amd credit for authorship is noted on the cover. However, there will be no acknowledgement that contractor assistance was involved. b NITS may be produced on a non-shceduled basis by a Department with editorial/composition/layout assistance from NISC-60. The format is flexible depending largely upon the nature of the material contained. As a minimum the following sections will be included: Preface Table of Contents Lists of Tables and Illustrations (If any) Executive Summary (not included when text is less than 20 pages) Text Appendices (If any) Distribution List 4-11
NISCINST 3120.1A 7 3 NQV 1985 A Bibliography may be included after the Appendices if a description of source materials will support the text and not alter the classification of the finished product. c. Distribution Lists will be generated internally ard will te tailored to the subject matter on a case-by-case basis. d. NISC policy regarding disclaimers is as follows: {1) A disclaimer is not necessary. (2) If a disclaimer is included it shall be worded along the following lines: "The data contained herein and any conclusions drawn are those of the authors. The intent of publishing these data in the format of a Navy Intelligence Technical Summary is to stimulate further exchange of ideas between the authors and other interested parties. All comments and recommendations should be addressed to: Commanding Officer, Naval Intelligence Support Center, 4301 Suitland Road, Washington, DC 203905140, Attn: (name or NISC POC amd mail code). e. Due to possible inter-departmental overlap, draft oopies of NITS should be given widest internal review as required. 402.6 BASIC IMAGERY INTERPRETATION REPORT (BIIR) a. NISC produces BIIRs in conformance with the Navy's responsibilities for third-phase imagery exploitation under the National Tasking Plan (NTP). BIIRs are detailed, imagery-derived reports on foreign submarines, surface ships, sensors, air and weapons platforms, as well as construction yards and major operational facilities. Each report is generally done by a sole author who is given a credit line at the beginning of the report. b. NISC-70 produces from seven to ten BIIRs in a typical year. BIIRs generall contain the following: Preface Data Block Abstract Table of Contents Table of Illustrations Introduction Basic Description Construction Chronology Reference Data Editorial/compostion/layout assistance is provided by NISC-60. Due to the broad range of disciplines involved the BIIR is reviewed by all Departments prior to publication. c. NISC-70 prepares the distribution list for the BIIRs to include OPNAV elements, the Navy Laboratories and major afloat commands. 4-12
NISCINST 3120.1A 402.7 SCHEDULED DIA PRODUCTS The following paragraphs set forth guidelines to be used in the S&T production program to ensure that standard procedures are followed. a. Prior to the beginning of each fiscal year, DIA submits a proposed annual S&T intelligence production schedule to the Military Services for review and comment. Based on an appraisal of resources available for the coming fiscal year, as compared with tasks assigned and anticipated, the Services respond to the proposed schedule with recommended modifications. Subsequently, a firm schedule is promulgated by DIA for implementation by tle Service S&T intelligence production agencies. This schedule delineates those tasks for which NISC is prime producer as well as those of other agencies which are to receive NISC support. b. Upon receipt of the annual S&T intelligence production schedule by this command, the Production and Tasking Division (NISC-0001) will, after consultation with all departments and the Commanding Officer, and if necessary, DIA, promulgate a detailed listing of tasks to be accomplished by each department and the production milestones to be met. The department with primary production responsibility will be designated on the basis of assigned missions amd functions. However, the Office of Naval Warfare Capabilities (NISC-OOW) will review all products, except NITs, for consistency and adequacy of command position. (1) Preparation of manuscript: (a) The primary (lead) department will appoint a project monitor for each production task assigned on the schedule. This individual will be responsible, umer the department head, for those functions of the production cycle which involve all coordination and integration steps (beginning with the preparation of internal tasking and external data calls), tie assembly of the integrated draft, routing for review and chop, am final incorporation of all required changes. At the time that the draft is sent to DIA for review, a proposed distribution list and required DIA Form 447 will be prepared and submitted to NISC-0001. Close liaison will be effected with the departmental editor and the DIA sub-element monitor at the beginning of the draft assembly process. The project monitor will be required to coordinate amd know at all times the status of each assigned task until it leaves the lead department for publication. The project monitor will advise NISC-0001 of the anticipated draft delivery date to DIA so that suitable notation may be made in the Weekly Wire, Part 2, forty-five days in advance of delivery. (b) Questions concerning editorial and printing procedures, for purpose of stanfardization and adherence to DIAM 75-1, will be adjudicated by the Technical Services Department (NISC-60) through the editorial staff collocated in each department. The editorial staff will be responsible for the editorial arts aspect of a publication while the technical content will be the primary department's responsiblity. The technical editor will he responsible for editing and/or re-writing the manuscript so as to achieve effective communication with the intended audience and for the final review of the camera copy prior to its release from the department. The editorial assistant will be responsible to the editors for format guidance of typists 4-13
NISCINST 3120.1A engaged in the publication's effort, word processor run-off, ard simultaneous insertion of illustrations ami captions, and the production of camera copy. The training of typists engaged in the operation of the Center's word processors will be the responsibility of NISC-60. (c) All products will be typed in proper format using command word processing equipment, preferably WANG. The clerical personnel will be under the supervision of NISC-60. Camera copy will be composed and layed out by NISC~60 using inputs furnished by the departmental editorial assistants. In those cases where it is necessary to use external assistance for the production of camera ready copy, the contract for the work performance will be administered by NISC-60 and shall require, as part of the deliverable item, that the manuscript be provided in a magnetic medium suitable for storage amd retrieval in the NISC automated text editing system. The number of copies to be printed will ke verified by NISC-60 prior to printing. (d) Acquisition, maintenance, repair and modification of word processing equipment used by NISC-60 in the production of NISC publications will be the joint responsibility of NISC-60 and the Management Information Division (NISC-0003). (2) Departments will submit completed draft products to NISC-0001 who will forward them to DIA (Df) for review and approval in accordance with the provisions of Chapter 9 of DIAM 75-1. Prior to DIA review, the draft product will be submitted for command review, covered by NISC Publications Routing Sheet. Responsibility for determining the inter~departmental chop list rests with the primary department. As a minimum, all contributing departments, CSO and NISC-OOW will be placed on the review/chop list. Upon incorporation of DIA's comments, as appropriate, the product will be forwarded to NISC-60 for camera copy preparation, printing and Gissemination. When page numbers have been established, the project monitor will prepare and submit to NISC-0001 a DIA Form 118 (Releasability Statement) for forwarding to DIA. An Abstract of Significant Production form for the product will also be submitted at this time for inclusion in the NAVSTIR. (2) Review and approval: (a) For purposes of DIA review, S&T intelligence publications are placed in one of two groups: 1. Group I products must be submitted formally to DIA (DT-3) for review and approval by sub-element monitors. =» Group II products must be reviewed by DIA but are published with departmental (Service) approval. (b) Responsibility for approval of Group II products has been delegated to the Commanding Officer. This demands that the highest standards of quality control be maintained in producing a fully coordinated and integrated product which reflects the command position. (c) Due dates established in the approval production schedule may be changed only through official correspondence between NISC-0001 and DIA. NISC-60 must participate in any production slippage in order to minimize impact on the approved production schedule. Revisions to the annual 4-14
NISCINST 3120.1A Production schedule must be supported in detail. Generally, the only acceptable rationaie for a slippage is significant changes in available resources, or unprogrammed quick-response (crisis) requirements. (a) To ensure coordination, departments will designate a production coordinator whose functions will include close liaison with the Production and Tasking Division (NISC-000]1). Production meetings will be held as required between departmental coordinators and NISC-0001 to review the status of products, determine whether the production milestones are being met as scheduled, and to recommend remedial action as appropriate. (3) Project control status of production: (a) As updates to the Catalog of Approved Scientific and Technical Intelligence Tasks (CAST) are received, the Production and Tasking Division (NISC-0001) will issue project numbers to each task requiring primary or support action by NISC. (b) Upon promulgation of the annual S&T Intelligence Production Schedule, NISC~-0001 will assign appropriate point work orders indicating the primary department and due dates for submission of the draft manuscript. Tasks involving NISC support to another agency will have only the basic continuing number entered in the system indicating the support to be provided. Print dates for publications will conform to the DIA scheduled dissemination date. (c) When internal support is required, an Inter-departmental Support Task (IST) providing details of support and due dates required by the primary department will be forwarded by the department. c. Action: To ensure that production deadlines are met ani that quality control is maintained, NISC departments, with NISC-0001 assistance, will develop management procedures to provide for: (1) Realistic assessment of production resources available to meet annual schedule requirements. (2) A reflection of this assessment in responding to proposed DIA schedules. (3) Continuous review of each product, in coordination with DIA monitors, to determine the extent of change or update required ani the most efficient production technique or format to employ in maintaining the product. Recommendations for the cancellation of redundant, obsolete or minimal interest publications will also be ononsidered. (4) Identification of production problem areas and the application of timely remedial measu:‘es to prevent production slippages. 402.8 NAVY TACTICAL WARFARE PUBLICATIONS (NWP) a. NWP-O assigns production responsibility for the NWP-12 Series of publications to the Director of Naval Intelligence. NISC specific requirements include the following: 4-15

NISCINST, 4120.18 boo reud 403. AD HOC PRODUCTION The Production and Tasking Division (NISC-Q00l) is the focal point for processing ad hoc taskings. These taskings are received from NIC via Production Tasking Forms or directly from various activities by messages, correspondence, memos and telephone. If NISC is an info addressee on an action message or correspondence, NISC-0001 will assign anticipatory action prior to receiving NIC tasking. Upon receipt of a request, NISC-000i asigns action to a staff/department, indicates supporting department(s), and asigns the due date. NISC-OOOl will assign the project number and other basic data required by the IRMS. A specific due date is assigned to all projects. A continuing due date may also be assigned to large scale projects in which NISC provides support to the consumer as data are received and analyzed, for which no specific milestones are established or required; however, these continuing numbers should be kept to a minimum. The due date appearing on the project task sheet is the date by which the completed response must be mailed or transmitted. Any changes to the assigned due date must be approved by NISsc-000. . Unless otherwise advised, the action department will forward the requested information directly to the originator. The action department. retains responsibility for maintaining an "Audit-Trail" on all tasking until the finished product is enroute. a. Due Date Assignment: The following guidelines are used by NISC-O0O1 for assignment of due dates: (1) Originator requests specific due date - NISC-0001 will retard internal due date to provide for mail delivery in time to meet originator's due date as follows: ORIGINATOR NISC DUE DATE* OPNAV/NIC/CBN/Other X minus one working day Washington Area Commands East Coast Commands X minus two working days West Coast Commands X minus three working days EUR/Hawaii/WESTPAC Commands X minus four working days *Originator's requested due date = X (2) Originator's request passed via message ~ if no specific due date requested, NISC-O00l will assign NISC due date in accordance with the message precedence as follows: PRECEDENCE NISC DUE DATE Immediate Same day Priority Three working days Rout ing Ten working days 4-22
NISCINST 3120.14 To 84 1985 (3) On correspondence other than messages, if originator does not request specific due date - NISC-OOO1 will ‘consult with department to establish reasonable NISC due date or 10 working days from receipt of correspondence, as specified by DNI Instruction 5216.2D may be assigned for task completion. (4) As a general rule, NISC-COOl will avoid assigning a due date falling on Friday to any project requiring a message or letter response to the originator. b. Extensions of Due Dates: Departments are required to make every effort to complete the required action by the originator's requested due date. No due dates on tasks originating outside NISC will be slipped unless the originator is formally notified via message, letter, telephone, or memo as appropriate of NISC's inability to perform the task by the date requested and the new estimated completion date provided. (1) Message Request: In the event that action cannot be completed by the assigned date, an interim reply will be made. When an interim reply is made, a new due date will be provided. The interim reply should be prepared and transmitted not later than the originator's requested due date. (2) Correspondence: If the task cannot be completed by the requested date, departments/staff will negotiate a revised due date directly with the requestor. (Reference: NAVINTCOMINST 3890.1B) (3) NISC-00O will not normally approve extension of the originator's requested due date without some indication that an interim response has been made, is being prepared, or is not required. c. Chop List for Responses: It is the responsibility of the department /staff originating the response to coordinate the product with other appropriate department/staff elements. d. Closing Out Assigned Tasks: It is the responsibility of the action department/staff elements to expeditiously close out all tasks assigned a NISC project number upon their completion. The procedures outlined below should be adhered to in order to maintain an accurate status of all NISC projects: (1) Completed Tasking: Action departments submit IRMS project completion forms as soon as possible. The serial number, DIG, TCS, or other identifying number along with the date transmitted/mailed will be noted on the IRMS completion form. (2) Cancelled Tasking: In the event a tasking is cancelled, department/staff elements are required to submit an IRMS Form 2 for approval giving specific justification/details including persons contacted and dates. e. Assignment of Priorities: NISC~O0Ol will review each quick response tasking upon its receipt, determine its urgency, amd assign a recommended priority in accordance with the following: "A" (Urgent) - These projects are of the highest priority. 4-23
NISCINST 3120.1A Le Nay 1985 "B" (Priority) - These projects essential to national/Navy operational and planning requirements. “C" (Routine) ~ These projects substantially improve existing information and/or Navy effectiveness, and are to be expedited consistent with efficient employment of personnel and facilities. "H" (Hard) ~- These projects must meet the assigned due date to the time criticality of the request. "H" priorities which cannot be satisfied in the time allotted will be brought to the personal attention of NISC-000 prior to negotiating a revised due date. “Blank" - No priority assigned. 404. CONFERENCES AND MEETINGS a. This section promulgates procedures for the use of commam conference facilities. It covers those facilities designated as the Large Conference Room, Medium Conference Room, Small Conference Room, and Management Information Center (MIC). b. The following procedures will be followed for the scheduling and use of NISC conference facilities: (1) The schedule for the Large and Small Conference Rooms and the MIC is controlled by the Production and Tasking Branch (NISC-0001B). Conference facilities will be scheduled by date and time period on a first come, first served basis. Pre-emption of the schedule will occur only at the direction of the Commanding Officer. NISC-0001B should be notified of cancellations in a timely manner. As the MIC is designed to support the management element of NISC, it will normally be available only to the Commanding Officer, Executive Officer, Technical Director, and Department/Staff Element Heads. (2) The Large, Medium, and Sma}l Conference Rooms ard the MIC are certified for all~source briefings and discussions. The outer door to the Large/Small Conference Room complex will be secured whenever properly cleared personnel are not present in the complex. Access to the complex can be obtained by contacting NISC outside security. It is the responsibility of the individual or department scheduling a conference facility to ensure that all persons in attendance are properly cleared for the material being briefed or discussed. (3) Individuals or departments scheduling the Large/Small Conference facilities are responsible for setting up the desired seating arrangement and returning the rooms to the standard configuration after use as shown in figures 4-4 and 4-5. All trash (coffee cups, soda cans, etc.) will be placed in the trash receptacles provided. (4) Vugraph, carousel 35MM slide, and 16MM motion picture projectors are available for use in each conference room. Individuals or departments scheduling the facilities are responsible for providing their own projection equipment operators (remote controls for the carousel 35MM projectors are available). The projection equipment is pre-set for optimum performance, and 4-24
NISCINST 3120.14 Lo NAV 1985 will not be removed from the pre-set position. Unqualified personnel will not attempt to repair or replace inoperable equipment. The number to call to obtain the services of a qualified technician will be clearly posted in each projection room. c. The following responsibilities are assigned to the departments/staff elements indicated for the operation and maintenance of the NISC conference facilities covered by this section: (1) NISC-0001B - provide general oversight of ami schedule the designated facilities. (2) NISC-60 - provide routine on-board maintenance of the projection equipment. Arrange for outside repair of equipment which is beyond the capability of on-board maintenance personnel to perform. Maintain adequate spares to ensure that the designed projection capability is maintained at all times. (3) NISC-OSP - provide for routine cleaning of the conference facilities by GSA personnel on a daily basis, and special cleaning (rugs, drapes, etc.) as required. Prepare and monitor work requests for alterations/repairs to conference facilities other than projection equipment as required. 404.1. COORDINATION OF AND REPRESENTATION AT NISC BRIEFINGS a. NISC is frequently tasked to present briefings to high-level audiences for whom more than one NISC department is required to provide an input or briefer. A single senior NISC representative may ke appointed for each such briefing. NISC-000 will coordinate the dry run, attend the presentation to ensure that the naval intelligence position is clearly defined, coordinate any follow-up action required, and provide a complete debrief to the Commanding Officer and others, as appropriate. This requirement also exists for the department head in cases where an analyst or analysts from a single department is briefing a high-level auidence outside the Naval Intelligence Command. b. “High-level audience" should be construed to mean that which includes flag rank or civilian equivalent attendees. Awliences which meet this criterion are CEB, CEP, DDR&E, OPNAV and CNM flag officers, fleet CINCs, Service War Colleges, etc. This list is not all inclusive and requirements for provision of a command representative will be levied on a case-by-case basis. c. Concurrent with the dry run, a senior NISC representative will be assigned to attend briefings meeting the criteria outlined above. This representative may be the Commanding Officer, Executive Officer, Technical Director, department heads or deputies, or other 05/06 officers, as assigned. The assigned representative will attend all pre-briefs and the presentation itself and provide any required follow-up and debrief DNI/DDNI and the Commanding Officer, as required. All requests for “high-level briefings" will be coordinated with the Commanding Officer. 4-25
NISCINST 3120.1A qe wey 1985 405. GRAPHIC, PHOTOGRAPHIC, AND LITHOGRAPHIC/MJLTIPLE COPY SUPPORT a. Background: Capabilities available in NISC include the preparation of graphic materials for briefings, publication illustration, or other purposes, photographic support in all phases of still photograpy including processing, printing, actual camera work, and lithographic/electrostatic printing and copying services. The Technical Services Department (NISC-60) provides these services through Publications Division (NISC-65) and Photographics Division (NISC-64). While the capacity of these divisions is not unlimited, the capabilities of the technical personnel assigned permit accomplishment of a wide variety of services to NISC and other government agencies, as may be directed. b. Discussion: Effective dissemination of intelligence data frequent ly requires the inclusion of graphic illustrations, photographs, and combinations of these forms of material in publications or use of these materials in combination with textual information in vugraph or 35mm transparency form for briefings. The provision of such materials, from conception to final product, can be only as effective as the input materials. While technical services are available to transpose data and ideas into concrete visual aids and mterials, the personnel involved in the production of the final products seldom are capable or knowledgeable enough to “fill in the gaps" which might exist in originally-submitted materials. The originator must accept total responsibility for accuracy, currency, ani relevancy of the final graphic, photographic, or published materials. The information which follows is intended as a guide to originators of requests for graphic/reprographic services. It is not all-inclusive; close liaison with the technicians involved in the production of final materials is a necessity and is actively encouraged. c. Submission of Requests: All graphic/photographics requests are accepted directly by the Division/Branch involved in their production, with the provision that the requestor must provide the NISC Project Tasking Number for the project for which the materials are being requested. If materials requested are for a purpose/project for which no number has been assigned, requestors shall be required to request accomplishment of work via NISC Operations Department. NISC Operations Department will prepare required tasking paperwork, assigning a project number and overall task priority within NISC. The job request should be directed as follows: (1) Graphics Support - Graphics Section, Publications Division (NISC-65) : (a) Includes: vugraph preparation, original illustrations, preparation of graphic matter for publication, graphic design. (b) Requests for assistance in location of appropriate photos or illustrations, etc., should be directed to the Graphic coordinators, NISC-65. (2) Photographic Support - Photographic Services Branch (NISC-641): (a) Includes: photographic work of all types, classified SECRET or below. 4-26
NTSCINST 3120.1A (b) Requestor will fill out standard Photographic Job Requests at the Production Control Desk of the Branch, with assistance if required from the Production Control Personnel. (3) Special Photographic Support - Special Photographic Techniques Branch (NISC-642): (a) Includes all types of photographic work classified TOP SECRET or requiring special compartmentation. (b) Provides video recording of intelligence documentat ion. (c) Requestors will fill out Standard Photographic Job Orders as indicated above. (4) Lithographic/Electrostatic Print ing/Mult iple copy service and support services are provided through the Lithographics Branch ( NISC-643). (a) NISC-65 personnel are available as required to assist in determination of proper methods of preparation of materials for submission for reproduction by offset presses. Requestors are urged to contact the Printing 4 Specialist (NISC-65A) before final preparation of materials for reproduction. | eed . Typed roughs of materials requested. 2. Overlay sheets on all photographs to be annotated. 3. Suggested/desired layouts ani colors (if required) should be noted. 4. Maximum image area 7 1/2 x 9 1/2 inches. a. Minimize textual information - increase legibility when projected. b. Keep layouts simple - visibility and legibility enhanced. c. Use "key words" vice phrases wherever possible. da. Specify color only when it is necessary to provide emphasis which cannot be supplied in other ways. DO NOT USE COLOR ONLY TO PROVIDE COLOR. 5. Requests for production with less than three working days time will be “Xerox" reproductions, with diminished quality when compared to photographic reproduction, and NO COLOR CAPABILITY. (b) Drawings and photographs for publication illustration: 1. Submit request direct to the Graphics Coordinator (NISC-65) . 4-27
NISCINST 3120.1A 1c Nav 1985 2. Provide specific information concerning illustration desired. (c) Original artwork, drawings, or design work: 1. Submit requests direct to Graphics Section (NISC-65). 2. No drawings provided larger than 20 x 24, to permit future micrographic reproduction/filing. 3. Be as specific as possible, including provision of "rough" sketches. (5) Photographic Services (apply to NISC-641 andj NISC-642) equally): (a) Request only work that has a true, valid purpose. (b) Review all requests to ensure that all requested photographs to be printed are of adequate quality to be of use as final products; eliminate fuzzy, grossly over - or under-exposed views, duplicate views, “might need someday” views. (c) Reduce required numbers of prints to minimum essential; however, request total numbers on original request - resubmission tends to overload the system unnecessarily. (ad) Photographs intended for publication by NISC should not be color; when requesting copies or prints from negatives for this purpose, specify black-and-white. (e) Whe materials are submitted for direct reproduction as 35mm slides, they should not exceed 11 x 14 inches. If textual materials are included and a typewriter is used to prepare the original, the original image area should not exceed 4 x 6 inches, to maintain legibility of the information when projected. Avoid “over wordiness" - use key words/phrases, maximum line count of 16 per frame. (When the format is “vertical” - if horizontal, 13 lines maximum). , (i) Be as specific as possible in preparing the job requests - particularly when several different requirements are to be met in the course of accomplishing one request. (3) If questions exist as to feasibility, practicality, or proper materials to be requested for a job, contact NISC-64 prior to preparing final original materials or requests for photography. 406. INFORMATION RESOURCE MANAGEMENT SYSTEM The NISC Information Resource Management System (IRMS) is the primary vehicle used to provide the Commanding Officer and component departments/staff elements with management level data on key areas of concern. Successful implementation of IRMS, as outlined in reference (a), is critically dependent on strict adherence to standardized operating procedures. 4-28
NISCINST 3120.14 TS NOV 1985 a. Responsibilities. (1) The Operations Department. The Operations Officer (NISC-000) will serve as the IRMS Production Control Manager (PCM) as defined in references (b) andi (c). As such, he serves as the command focal point for the acceptance, validation, and scheduling of all tasking received by the command. Consequently, it is imperative that departments/staff elements accept no tasking without the knowledge of the PCM. In accomplishing the Production Control responsibilities, the Operations Department will: (a) Provide formal notification of tasking to action/support offices, via the IRMS network, within one working day of receipt. Asa general rule, action will be assigned to the department /staff element that nas overall responsibility for the topic area with support tasking to potential contributors, as appropriate. Support offices will not be assigned due dates, unless specified in the original tasking. It is the responsibility of the action office to determine the nature of the support requirement. (b) Adjudicate all requests for tasking modification (FORM 2) to include changes in assignment, due date(s), and associated support requirements. Requests for modification will be reviewed by 1100 each working day and decisions made in accordance with the following: 1. Action/support assignment - the Operations Officer/Deputy Operations Officer are designated as the sole agents for the Commanding Officer to authorize modifications to assigned tasking action/support roles. 2. Due date(s) - the Production/Tasking Division (NISC-0001) shall approve routine requests for changes to due date(s), but such changes first should have been negotiated with the requestor's point of contact. If the request is of a non-routine nature, approval authority rests with the Operations/Deputy Operations Officer. 3. Approved change requests will be reflected by an automatic modification to the task in the IRMS network. Disapprovals will remain in the system unadjudicated with an "N" indicated in the FORM 2 approval block. In the case of disapprovals, the requestor shoud contact the Operations Department to determine the reason for disapproval. (c) Maintain and provide, as required, relevant production control data necessary to support decision making/reporting requirements of NISC managers an other components of the intelligence community. (d) Serve as the command focal point for the addition/deletion of project tasking codes. (e) Develop and promulgate Production Control policy and guidance in accordance with references (b) and (c).
