(fl "National priorities" means those cssrntlal actions and nct.lvltles In which the government and the private ,rctor must become engaged In the lnt~rrsts or nntlonal survival and recovery.

qn "The Nntlonal Communications System <NCS)'' means that system 11.·hlch was established by Presidential Memornndum .of August 21, 1963, "Es-

. tabllshment of a National Communications System." It ls a confederatlve arrangement In which certnln Federal agencies participate with their owrn~d and leased telecommunications a..-;.o:;els to provide necessary communications services for the Federal Government, under all conditions, Including nuclear war.

§ 201.3 Policy.

Cal The Federal Government Is baslcally responsible for resources moblllz:itlon, Including determination of the need for and the extent of mobilization necessary In all national emergencies.

Cb) In an Immediate postattack period all decisions regarding the use o( resources will be directed to the objective or national survival and recovery. In order to achieve this objective, postattnck resources will be 11.SSlgned to activities concerned with the maintenance and saving of !Ives. Immediate military defP.nse, and economic actlvltirs essentlnl to continued economic survival and recovery.

Cc> The President Is authorized, lf he finds It necessary In the Interest of national defense n.nd security, to dlrect that such telecommunications. ltS Jn his Judgment may be essential. shall have precedence or priority with nny c:urler snbJ~ct to the Communication'! Act or 1934. as nmended. The Presl· dent may give these directions at and for such times M he may determine, and rnny modify, change, suspend, or annul them, and for any such purpose, is authorized to Issue orders directly, or through such person or persons designated for the purpose. or through

the Federal Communications Commission.

(d) Federal. State, and local governments are to share the responsibility for conservntlon of the Nation's telecommunication.'! resources. Although the President hns responsibility for establishing national objectives, local conditions nnd relative urgency would determine the order and level of precedence within priorities.

( 1 J The achievement of survival nnd recovery would establish an unavoidable Interdependence between and 11.mong Federal. State, and local authorlt.lPs; therefore. there should be no bnrrlers between these levels of authorities which would Impede, obstruct, or otherwise hinder effective conservation and equitable 11.llocntlon of resource and services to the needs of the Nation.

(2) The Federal Government will rely upon State governmenlc; and their telecommunications management organl7.atlons for management or control of Intrastate carrier services and continuity of Interconnectivity with Interstate carriers to assure that national objectives and priorities are properly served.

<e> There will be a central authority within the Federal Government to control, coordinate, and direct the activities of the Nation's telecommunlcatlonc; facilities, systems, and services.

(f) Telecommunications resources or the Federal Government will be employed. as required, to best serve the continuity of government and national Interests.

(g) A system of communications services priorities will be established which will facllltate early restoration of services considered vital to national Interests.

<h> There will · be a precedence system for the expeditious hnndllng of telephone calls, messages. and data transmission via government and public correspondence facllltes.

 Federal agencies will, In the development of emergency operational plans, minimize, to the extent feasible, dependence upon telecommunications services for continuity of essential operations.

II 202.2 Criteria and ~uidanc,.

Emergency preparedness planning In government and Industry with respect to effective conservation nnd use of surviving telecommunications resources In a. postattnck period must provide !or orderly and uninhibited restoration of Intercity services by the <:'arrlers and authoritative control of services nllocatlon which will nssure that precedence will be afforded the most critical needs or government and the private sector with respect to these objectives.

<a> The preservation of the Integrity of characteristics and capabilities of the Nation's telecommunications systems and networks during R national emergency Is of the utmost Importance. This can best be accomplished by centrallzed pollcy development, planning, anrt broad direction. Detailed operatlom; mnnagement will remain decent.rnllzed Ln order to retain. flexibility In the use of Individual systems In responding to the needs of national security, survival, and recovery. Each Federal ngency responsible for telecommunlcntlons systems operations, and the c:urlers, are responsible for planning with rr.spect. to emergency operations. Guidance In t.hls mntter has been Issued from a number of sources and contained In:

Cl> Annex C-Xl <Teleconununlcatlons), Federal Emergency Plan D <Classified>.

<2) The Federal Communications Commission <FCC> Industrial Communications Emergency Plan <ICEP> Basic.

<3> The National Communications System Management Plan !or Annex C-XI <Telecommunlcntlons> Federal Emergency Plan D CClns.o:;lfled>.

 The continuity of essential communlcntlons services will be maintained through the use of controls and operational procedures to assure that precedence Is given to vital services. Emerr,ency preparedness with respect to telecommunications services will provide for, but Is not limited to:

<1> A precedence system !or public correspondence services.

<c> The Nntlon·s telecommunications systems fncl!Jtles are vulnerable to physical nnd rndlologlcal dn.mnge. Flnnnln~ factors with respect to the resumption of Intercity services In a postnttnck period must consider the probnble loss of facllltle!'l which formerly provided direct nnd/or nltemate Intercity services between surviving populntlon centr.rn. Since surviving nren.s nnd population centers would serve l\S t.he sources o( support to crippled nrens of the Nation. the resumption of Intercity services bt"tween nnd n.mong surviving metropolltnn arens will be of the highest priority with the carriers. The order of precedence of nctlons to effect Intercity services restomtlon set forth In the following will not be modJfled except upon direction of the central point of authority In telecommunlcatlons matters.

atlons from peacetime to massive nu. clear attack. Effectuation of that system requires that the Director Issue a circular and that the Commission concurrently Issue an order prescribing the st11ndards. procedures, policies, and regulations th11t together, constitute this single Integrated precedence system.

 In conformity with that Rgree.. ment the Natlonnl Security Council Is Lc;sulng this circular the purpose of which Is to prescribe, on behalf of the President, that part of those standards, procedures, po!Jcles, and regulations which n.re within the cognizance of the NSC. No slgnJflcance should be attached to the fact. that slightly different terms are used In their circular from. those used In the companion order of the FCC. Those differences result from differences In terms In the ba..c;lc leitt\l authorities of the director and the Commission rather than from an Intent to denote a distinction In purpose or effect.

1213.2 Scope. The precedence system contained

herein Is applicable to: <a> Users of Government service fa
