FILE: UFO2101
This file contains the complete text of: Joint Army-Navy-Air Force Publication (JANAP 146(E)), CANADIAN - UNITED STATES COMMUNICATIONS INSTRUCTIONS FOR REPORTING VITAL INTELLIGENCE SIGHTINGS (CERVIS/MERINT) as released on February 28, 1994 by the Assistant to the Secretary of Defense.
The regulation is complete including "change No. 2", promulgated May 17, 1977. Only ten of the 33 pages (not including blank pages) are the "original"
JANAP 146(E), the remaining 23 pages are as "Change No. 2".
JANAP 146 is important for a couple of reasons:
1. It is mentioned in the "Bollender Memo" (dated 1969) as being one of
the "reporting channels" by which UFO reports which are matters of national security are reported; UFO reports "not part of the Blue Book system".
2. This copy is dated 1977 and still bears "Unidentified flying objects" as one of the items which must be reported despite protestations by virtually every agency queried that ther has been no interest in UFOs since the
USAF Project Blue Book closed in 1969.
Some hand written notes appear in the released pages, and some typed text is crossed out generally by a single hand drawn line. This information has been retained:
1. [ Text in [ ] brackets is crossed out in original ]
2. { Text in curly brackets { } is hand written in original }
3. _Text enclosed with underscores _ _ is underlined in original
4. { |}, {| }, or {|} indicates bars drawn in margin (presumably
indicating areas of additional change)

JANAP 146 (E)
(c) Any airborne, seaborne, ballistic or orbiting
{| }object which, the observer feels, may constitute a military threat
{| }against the US or Canada, or may be of interest to military and civilian {| }government officials.
_SECTION II - PROCEDURES_
202. _General._
a. Communications procedures to be employed will be basically
those prescribed for the communications system or service used. Con-
tinuing efforts will be made by an aircraft originating a CIRVIS report
to insure that each CIRVIS message is received by an appropriate station.
b. Every attempt will be made to verify the authenticity of
CIRVIS reports. Where possible, authentication will be required.
{| } c. The US Air Force, Office of Primary Responsibility (OPR), for
{| }such matters is the Assistant Chief of Staff, Intelligence (AFIN),
{| }Washington, DC 20330.
203. _Precedence (priority of transmission)._
a. To avoid delays by aircraft in rendering a CIRVIS report to a
ground facility, the word "CIRVIS" spoken or transmitted three (3) times
will be employed, preceding the call, to clear the frequency(ies) over
all other communications, except DISTRESS and URGENCY, to insure its expeditious handling.
b. Should instances occur, when use of the above procedure fails
to clear the frequency(ies) over all other communications in progress
except as provided for in 203a, the International Urgency Signal "XXX" transmitted three (3) times or "PAN" spoken three (3) times will be
employed to facilitate disposition of the message to the receiving faci-
lity.
c. When filing or refiling CIRVIS messages with commercial communi- cations companies, US Government activities will use commercial class of service designator XV GOVT/EMERGENCY, Canadian Government activities will
use commercial class of service designator RUSH.
d. The following precedence will be employed in the transmission
of all CIRVIS reports, as appropriate, commensurate with the communica-
tions facilities used:

c. A post landing report is desired immediately after landing by CINCNORAD or RCAF-ADC to amplify the airborne
report(s). this may be filed with either the Canadian or United
States military or civil communications facilities located
at the place of landing. If the landing is not made in
Canadian or United States territory the report should be
2-8 ORIGINAL
=============================================================================
JANAP 146 (E)
made to the nearest Canadian or United States military or diplomatic representative in that area. The post-landing report will refer to the
airborne report(s) and, in addition, contain a brief resume of weather conditions at the time of sighting(s), verification of the sighting(s)
by other personnel and any other information deemed appropriate. If the sighting was identified as friendly and a report so stating was filed
while airborne, no post-landing report is required.
(1) If no airborne report was made as a result of inability
to reach a Canadian or United States communications station, the post
landing report will contain all the information available concerning
the sighting.
206. _Addressing._
a. Aircraft. - It is imperative that all CIRVIS reports reach
the appropriate military commands as quickly as possible. The reports, therefore, shall be transmitted as soon as possible after the sighting.
Ground procedures have been established to handle CIRVIS reports by Canadian-United States military and civil communications facilities, so
the same procedures as those now established and in use by pilots for
air traffic control shall be followed. When contact by civil or military
pilots cannot be established with any ground communications station,
maximum effort shall be made to relay the CIRVIS reports via other air
craft with which communication is possible.
{* Detachment Commander, AIRCOMHQ Detachment, }
(1) Post-landing reports should be addressed to CINCNORAD/IN { |} Ent AFB, Colorado Springs, Colorado;{*}[CDR Canadian Forces, Air Defence { |} Group][Headquarters,] CFB North Bay, Hornell Heights, Ontario, POH 1PO, { |} or [CDR]Air Command, Canadian Forces Base Winnipeg, Westwin, Man, R2R OTO, { |} whichever is the more convenient if the sighting _occurred within the area_ _prescribed in paragraph 206b below._ Whichever of these headquarters
receives the report will immediately notify the other and also all other addressees of the original report(s). If the sighting(s) occurred in
other areas, the post-landing report should be made to the nearest US or Canadian military or diplomatic representative in that area who will
forward the report as prescribed in subparagraph 206b(1).
b. Communications Station. - Communications stations (to include
any Canadian or United States civil or military facility such as control
tower, naval shore radio station, approach control, ARTC center, or any
other communications facility) receiving CIRVIS reports will immediately
after receipting process the report as follows:
