Open AI Summary

According to a memorandum from the Director of GRIP Staff, the Army was directed to limit operational activities related to CENTER LANE in the National Foreign Intelligence Program (NFIP). However, the Director requested a GDIP input for CENTER LANE to be included in the Congressional Budget Justification Book only if prior Congressional approval was obtained. An AIGDIP submission for CENTER LANE was provided to the Director of CDIP Staff, but it had no OACSI ranking. The submission is similar to what has been included in INSCOM's Security and Investigative Activities (S&IA) Program input for FY 135. The recommendation is for the Director of GDIP Staff to sign a memorandum. (Classified by DIA/DT, to be declassified on OADR)
