RESPONSE TO DCI DOCUMENT REQUEST NUMBER 52, ITEM 2

The Commission asked that we produce "[a]ll tapes, transcripts, and documents relating
to interagency audio or video teleconferences that the CIA initiated, facilitated, or
otherwise participated in on the morning of September 11, 2001, relating to the
hijackings of September 11." For purposes of the request, you defined "morning" as
between 0830 and 1200 hours EDT on September 11, 2001.

We have no tapes or transcripts to produce in response to this request.

The only document we have that relates to any such teleconference is a small portion of a
"timeline" of 11 September Events put together by one of the CTC executive officers
who was assigned to follow the chief of the Counterterrorist Center on September 11,
2001 and to take notes on his activities that day. The only portion of the timeline that
relates to two video teleconferences—the entries are reproduced below, verbatim:

0940: DDCIJohn Mclaughlin, C/CTC CoferBlack, DC/SEG/Law Enforcement

Chuck Frahm attend SVTC with NSC Special Assistant to the President for
Transnational Threats, Dick Clarke. A conference call at 1100 is planned with
the President, who is aboard Air Force One. Discussion on what we know vs.
what is speculation. Consequence Management and Investigation is urged into
action by all present. FAA reports that it has closed all airports and directed
flights to land at the nearest airport. Rumors continue to be reported, including
first report that another plane has crashed into the Pentagon.

1115: DCI takes conference call from the President aboard Air Force One form
aphoneinP&PG. DDCI, C/CTC, DDO, DDI present for call. Discussion
centers around other likely targets, possible other hijackings or kidnappings of
senior officials. C/CTC sums up that M.O. points to al-Qa'ida sponsored action,
and that we will know more soon. DCI agrees.

Subject: what i know about the svtc

kevin: hey, have done some more investigating—this is what i have so far & I continue to
investigate. I think what you were referring to was indeed the SVTC and not/not a NOI WON call
(btw, the ops center evacuated at @1000, they can't be more precise about that).

Below is what i know so far, i'm checking with the people who were on the call for their
recollections of further informatics/11 closed by statutee DDCI & Cofer)-i"m also checking
with the guys who run the SVTC room to see what they might know if anything.

C/CTC (Cofer Black at the time) kept an officer! 9/11 Closed by Statute J with him
during that day to keep notes for him that day— all i have so far is her timeline— but honestly its
probably the best record we have of events that day-as i'm sure you've found in what must be a
fascinating investigation about that day-people's memories are pretty messed up on timing etc.
given the pace of events.

l.J I I wasn't aware this time line even existed until I went to see former DC/CTC Ben Bonk & he
/ii closed by statute r ed a copy with me--as we've never been asked about the day of 9/1 1 . It shows a SVTC at

Subject: RE: CIA and FBI Request

Dana,

FYI, I spoke 9/11 closed by statuteday regarding the NOIWON 9/11 call. She's going to track down the
individual(s) associated with the call. She recalled that the Commission had previously asked for any logs/tapes
of the NOIWON and they do not exist - "logs not kept and the line not recorded." I'm not sure what staff had
asked for that (T8?) as when I spoke to Lorry and Llyod they didn't mention previously dealing with it. Sorry, I
forgot to ask about the ops center name....

Subject: CIA and FBI Request

All - attached are draft requests to the FBI and CIA re their logs from 9-11 and any documents related to
interagency conferences (i.e. NOIWON, SVTS or primary net) they were involved in. A version of the
second request was circulated last September, as a memo from Dan Levin asking 10 agencies to look for
tapes or documents related to interagency conference. As you may recall we received back an email that
said all such documents had already been produced. Nevertheless, since we are submitting a request for
the logs we might as well ask for the information again. Let me know your thoughts. Dana (and does
anyone know the name of the CIA ops center?)
