BY THE U.S. GENERAL ACCOUNTING OFFICE

Report To The Director Of

The Office Of Management And Budget






Federal Agency Roles

And Responsibilities For Emergency

Communications Need Clarification


The Interagency Committee on Search and
Rescue developed its Emergency Response
Communications Program without establishing
the need for a satellite system or considering
alternatives. The program, which could cost
as much as $1 billion may be unaffordable.
As proposed, itisi   inconsistent with the
President's Civil Space Policy and duplicates
other attempts to improve emergency com-
munications.

To avoid duplicative and inconsistent efforts,
the Office of Management and Budget, in
coordination with other Federal agencies and
offices involved, should clarify roles and re-
sponsibilities for emergency communications.
