8、nse Nuclear Agency (DNA) is the overall technical coordi-nator for the Army, Navy, Air Force, and DOE laboratories on matters con-cerning nuclear weapons, nuclear weap-ons effects, and nuclear weapons test-ing. It acts as the focal point between the service laboratories and other agencies. The Natio
9、nal Communica-tions System (NCS), with the Defense Communications Agency (DCA), main-tains a data base for telecommuni-cations. DCA also provides the primary capability for the NCS to conduct tele-communications survivability studies for civil and military departments and agencies. (c) In order to d
10、isseminate among af-fected Federal agencies information concerning the telecommunications ef-fects of EMP and available protective measures, and in order to avoid dupli-cation of research efforts, it is desir-able to designate a focal point within the Federal Government for tele-communications EMP m
