qn Several alternative courses of action are available. For example, the Manager, NVOO, may approve the User's requirement outright; or prior to that action, solicit the recommendations of the Off-Continent Planning Committee (OCPC). The LPG is then directed to develop the preliminary concept and criteria and obtain planning cost estimates, siting approval, etc., as appropriate. The LPG will obtain the User's approval before submitting the results of their investigations to the Manager, NVOO, CJTF-8 and to other pertinent AEC and DOD agencies for comment and concurrence, as necessary. Based upon the recommendations of the OCPC, the Manager, NVOO, may either: (1) Disapprove the requirement; (2) Direct LPG to incorporate the requirements in the F&SR Plan as a proposed item pending approval; or (3) Approve the requirement with engineering, procurement and construction authorized in whole or in part. AEC agencies are responsible for reviewing the F&SR Plan to ascertain accuracy and completeness of all criteria under their cognizance. Desired changes will be reported to NVOO, witha copy to the Manager, LPG. il. PROCEDURE FOR DOD AGENCY FACILITY AND LOGISTIC SUPPORT APPROVAL AND INCORPORATION OF DATA RELATED THERETO IN THE FACILITIES AND SUPPORT REQUIREMENTS PLAN As in the case with the AEC originated requirements, the LPG is the organization responsible for compiling and maintaining the DOD's facility and logistic support data. However, JTF-8 is the coordinating agency between the various DOD organizations and the LPG in all instances. Upon JTF -8 approval DOD furnished support is included in the F&SR Plan. The responsibilities of the DOD organizations, involved in nuclear testing in the Pacific Operational Area, with respect to the F&SR Plan are as follows: All DOD agencies requiring facility and logistic support from JTF-8 shall obtain HQ DASA project approval prior to requesting inclusion of their requirement(s) in the F&SR Plan. Any require- ment that is to be included in the F&SR Plan will be submitted through appropriate channels to JTF-8, with a copy to the Manager, LPG, accompanied by a copy of DASA's approval.
