    reporting of biographic information relating to Bulgaria
    (paragraph 2).

    ¶A. (S/NF) The NHCD below supercedes the NHCD contained in Ref
    C and reflects the results of a recent Washington review of
    reporting and collection needs focused on Bulgaria.  The NHCD
    sets forth a list of priorities (paragraph 3) and reporting
    and collection needs (paragraph 4) intended to guide
    participating USG agencies as they allocate resources and
    update plans to collect information on Bulgaria.  The
    priorities may also serve as a useful tool to help the
    Embassy manage reporting and collection, including
    formulation of Mission Strategic Plans (MSPs).

    ¶B. (S/NF) This NHCD is compliant with the National
    Intelligence Priorities Framework (NIPF), which was
    established in response to NSPD-26 of February 24, 2003.  If
