Hi All-

Garth got the tapes yesterday (the bad weather delayed the delivery) and the digitization process is
underway as of last night. I failed to tell Garth last week that the tapes are 120 minutes each -that means a
lot more audio and a lot more time is needed. He said the first recordings will be uploaded to the audio drive
tomorrow morning. It will be a rolling process. Below is the set of ATCSCC tapes he received. 12636-12645
came in first (I believe some of you had the opp to listen to the tapes before I sent them). The rest of the list
of recordings are unedited. I'll keep you updated on Garth's progress. Thanks for understanding!

Subject: Regarding New ATC tapes and Digit. Project:

Dear ATC Groupies:

All Command Center tapes received in the past two weeks have been sent to Garth. I confirmed with him today
that he will be able to digitize them and upload onto the audio drive Monday afternoon/Tuesday morning.

To update you on what has been received of late:

- 49 tapes Dulles Tower


-16 tapes Indy Center (without voice activation)
- 26 tapes and index of not previously provided CC recordings (rec. 1/22)
-10 tapes CC (rec two weeks ago)
-18 tapes NY TRAC (rec two weeks ago)

I have not FULLY updated the spreadsheet to reflect this; that will get done Saturday.
I am in the weeds of some serious pre-hearing prep and will be MIA from GSA Mon-Tues!

Talk to you later,

Dana,
You have tapes for East 14, 15, 25 and 21 (NTMO). That is what we (myself, Miles and Air
Traffic) decided on some days after our site visit to the Command Center. You don't have East 16
which has responsibility for the airspace underlying Atlanta, Jacksonville and Miami Centers. The
list below is the universe of what's recorded at the Command Center. There are no other lines
other than these that are recorded.

On 9/11 all positions capable of being recorded were recorded. Activities that were not recorded
were the Central Altitude Reservation Function (CARF), and any other Military activities and these
lines are not recorded today. Due to the nature of the events on 9/11, many lines were not used.
We transitioned into continuous telcon lines so that information could be passed instantaneously
due to the need to get all the airplanes on the ground in a very short timeframe. This is why the
tape marked NTMO was unoccupied; the line was recorded but no one was using it. Below is a list
of floor positions and the geographical airspace they cover.

SVRWX positions-- Severe Weather -- these lines are used by FAA's traffic management specialists
to collect weather information, devise a suitable plan with other FAA Air Traffic facilities and
system users for re-routing traffic around bad weather.
TCA positions -• Tactical Customer Advocate --covers communication between the Command
Center and primarily the airlines to assist
with specific flights impacted by weather, crew time outs, etc.
SPT positions --Strategic Planning Telcon -- covers coordination between Command Center and
FAA field facilities, airlines and other system users, weather forecasters to develop the Strategic
Plan of Operations (SPO). The SPO identifies an overall plan of operation for 2-4 hours in the
future. The normally recurring telcons were canceled on 9/11 due to the grounding of all flights.
NOM position -- National Operations Manager --directs control room operations. The NOM
assumes the primary role in analyzing and evaluating the National Airspace System.

Subject: 9/11 Commission

Good Morning, Gerry,

This follows our earlier conversations.

We are responding to the request to find a conversation between the ATCSCC and the WOC
advising them that we ground stopped traffic nationwide on 9/11/01.

We have spent the better part of three days (so far) looking this communication. To date, we
have not found it.

The telephone call to the ARTCCs to ground stop all departures regardless of destination was
made at 1326z(0926 local).

We have listened to nine positions, which include three operational phones and 6 administrative
lines. We listened to the operational phones from
approximately 1230-1500z (0830-1100 local) and the administrative lines from approximately
1300-1500z (0900-1100 local).

These lines include the following functions performed on that day:

NOM position (two operational phones and two administrative phones),

a position located next to the NOM, which we opened up to support headquarters/security


type communication (one operational phone and one administrative phone),

the administrative phone at the West NTMO (supervisor) position and the administrative
phone at the East NTMO (supervisor) position.

We listened to another position adjacent to the NOM position used as the security type
position in the event it may have contained additional communication.

The East NTMO administrative line was used as a communication vehicle between HQ (Jeff Griffith
and Doug Davis) to keep them apprised of the event.

At 1327z (0927 local), ATCSCC advises Jeff Griffith of a nationwide groundstop.

At 1343z (0943 local), ATCSCC advises Doug Davis that we're diverting all internationals
inbound to the U.S. to Canada. This is the line where most of our communication with "HQ",
though not the WOC, took place.

This is NOT a line that was sent to the 9/11 Commission because the direction we received was to
send >»operational<« lines in the East.

In our normal course of business, we advise the WOC of an event, but not necessarily the traffic
management initiative(s) associated with it.

The tapes were capable of recording 53 lines on 9/11, providing a conversation took place.

As I mentioned to you on the phone, I think we could be much more responsive if we really knew
what they are trying to hear.

Subject: 911 Tape Update

Good Afternoon,

This is an estimate on remaining tape recording estimates, as well as a recap of what we have
previously written.

In response to AAT-l's direction to provide, "all. ...tapes. ...of internal FAA communications,
including interphone conversations among FAA locations, concerning aircraft presumed to be
hijacked on 9/11/01", and in keeping with our instruction to provide these recordings between the
times of 0815-1115 eastern local, I estimate the possibility of approximately 94 hours of voice
communications remaining that could be recorded. Each three hour period takes approximately 3
hours and 45 minutes to queue up and record. That comes up just short of 118 hours of
recordings, which equates to just under 17 shifts, or approximately 3 1/2 weeks. As we go
through, we may find we can compress some of that, but I can only tell this real time.

On 9/5. I sent this to Tony Ferrante in response to an inquiry from the 91 1 Commission:

Good Morning, Tony,

In response to the 9/11 Commission request for tapes, we provided you recordings that include
the operational conversations from the following positions:

Position 14 - normally delegated the responsibility for the geographical area containing the
airspace underlying New York Air Traffic Control Center (ARTCC). This airspace includes the
following major* airports: Newark International (EWR), John F. Kennedy (JFK), LaGuardia (LGA)
and Philadelphia (PHL). The New York Terminal Radar Approach Control (N90) airspace is also
included in this area.

Position 15 - normally delegated the responsibility for the geographical area containing the
airspace underlying Boston and Cleveland ARTCCs.
This airspace includes the following major airports: Boston-Logan (BOS), Detroit (DTW),
Cleveland-Hopkins (CLE) and Pittsburgh (PIT).

Position 25 - normally delegated the responsibility for the geographical area containing the
airspace underlying Washington ARTCC.
This airspace includes the following major airports: Baltimore (BWI), Reagan National (DCA) and
Washington Dulles (IAD).

NTMO (National Traffic Management Officer) • a supervisory position normally delegated


oversight for the traffic management responsibilities in the "East" area at the Air Traffic Control
System Command Center. This individual is responsible for the three positions listed above, as
well as one more position. The remaining East position (16) normally has responsibility for the
airspace underlying Atlanta, Jacksonville and Miami ARTCCs.

On September 11, 2001, telephone calls were answered in the most efficient manner, and were
not necessarily subject to normal geographic boundaries.

* major is defined as one of the OEP 35.

On 9/26. I sent this to Gerrv Shaklev in response to an inquiry forwarded through Shirley Miller
from the 911 Commission:

Good Afternoon, Gerry,

Here's where we are:

We have recorded the 4525 line from approximately 1215-1515z (0815-1115 local). This is an
administrative line from the NOM position and is the main administrative number used to reach
the control room at the ATCSCC. Various and diverse communication with FAA, military and
civilian entities would normally occur on this line.

We have recorded the 4530 line from approximately 1215-1515z (0815-1115 local). This is an
administrative line from the East NTMO (supervisor) position. On September 11, this line was
opened to provide direct access between ATCSCC and HQ, specifically Jeff Griffith's office.
Regular updates were provided by the ATCSCC on the status of the event. Questions posed to the
ATCSCC by Jeff's office were answered here.

Following our conversations, it is my understanding that the 9/11 Commission is interested in the
communication between ATCSCC and HQ and would be interested in at least two more positions.
We are currently in the process of recording those. These positions were opened on 9/11 to
support the unfolding events and include hotline information passed between 1) ATCSCC and HQ
and 2) information passed between the military and ATCSCC. These two positions will be
recorded for the same times noted above and should be completed by Tuesday, 9/30 COB.

Per your suggestion, I have asked Howard if he would take those that are completed to Janie (and
he has agreed), so they will be in HQ Monday a.m.

On 9/30. I sent this to Gerry Shakley in response to an inquiry forwarded through Shirley Miller
from the 911 Commission:

Hello, Gerry,

We're sending Howard home with the following tapes today:

Position 6 - This position is located in the strategic planning area and was used as a special
telcon position on 9/11. Coordination among ATCSCC and FAA field and regional offices are
recorded. Occasionally, other entities were asked to join this open conference. These tapes
include conversations from 1245-1515z (0845-1115 local).

NOM Operational Phone - This is an operational line at the NOM position and includes diverse
communication with air traffic, military and civilian entities. This might also include conversations
with FAA field and regional offices, as well as FAA headquarters. These tapes include
conversations from 1241-1515z (0841-1115 local).

Note: Start times of these tapes vary as pertinent conversations may be contained in the times
outside the "standard" of 0815-1115 local.

This concludes the recordings of the tapes that I estimate contain the bulk of the coordination
during the 0815-1115 local timeframe on 9/11/01.

Per your request, I will send you an email containing time spent on the preparation of these tapes.

Hello, All,
I estimate it will take us until approximately GOB 1/23 to complete the recordings requested.
I did speak with Tony Ferrarvte yesterday afternoon about 3:30 and he asked that we make
recordings of all lines, whether we,think they are blank OR pertinent. That is what we are in the
process of doling. \n addition torthe lines listed below.'xthere are approximately 6 operational lines which

screened earlier iSnd believe to be bla'-nk. We are recording those also.

Hi Ellen. On the transcript dated Oct 21, 2003, page 11, there is a discussion between
Mike Artist and Jeff Griffith about keeping a line open all the time. Mike tells Jeff to
calll Iwhich he says is a NOM number.

first, is that number a recorded line and if so, did we provide that re-recording to the
Commission already?

thanks
Shirley
