Issue: Continuity of MSG Satellite Downlink • Currently AFWA, and NASA fund the cost of the communication service to maintain MSG data receipt (both U/L and D/L costs) within the United States • NASA will no longer need this data due to the termination of the Space Shuttle program and intends to drop put of the funding contract at the end of the current period of performance • Based on a stipulation in the joint NOAA-NASA MOA, NASA has 90 days to notify NOAA prior to the termination of their part of the contract (~ June 5, 2011). • OSPO has taken over Americom contract from IPO and in order to maintain continuity of this service another source of funding will need to be identified starting with the next performance cycle from September 6, 2011 to September 5, 2012 • The total ARC for the 24x7 real-time service = $74K • Suggest in order to maintain this service NWS assume the NASA cost
