Table A-2 RIO OPERATIONAL QUESTIONS 1. Where do the RIO teams monitor, what do they look for, what are the critical points for inspection, and what is the level of detail the teams must look for? 2. What are the tradeoffs of personnel vs. automated aids, including the effort that must be expended to check the automated aids? How does this tradeoff affect cost vs. trustworthiness? 3. What manning levels are realistic on the basis of the answers to the above two questions? Is the RIO manning level in any way consistent with similar monitoring and inspection activities, and is this comparison really meaningful in view of the unique nature of the RIO environment? 4. What are the generalized procedures that must be followed by both Resident Teams and Spot Check Teams? What procedures should be followed in the event of a suspected or detected military alteration or use of SPS system equipment or facilities? What are the general policies that must be utilized by SPS Headquarters in dealing with concerned nations and parties? 5. The RIO concept leads to the potential requirement of career personnel for RIO. Will a special training academy eventually be required as it has for other dedicated career organizations? How should RIO be structured to attract and retain highly motivated people of all nations? What are the impacts of these questions on costs? How is RIO phased in during the early years before the dedicated training activities are established and proven?
