of criminal history information, the following is specifically
agreed to:
1. The Kitsap County Sheriff Office, and Police Departments
of Bremerton, Port Orchard, Poulsbo, and Winslow are herein-
after called the CENCOM ACCESS Board; and, as such, shall bear
full responsibility for insuring that the criminal justice
data communications network used at CENCOM is under their
management control.
2. Management contro~ is defined as the.authorityto set and
enforce (a) priorities'; (b) minimum sta aards for the selec-
tion, supervision, and 'termination o~ personnel; and (c)
policy governing the operation of computers, circuits and
telecommunications terminals used to process criminal history
record information at CENCOM, insofar as the equipment is used
to process, store, or transmit criminal history record
information.
3. Management control includes, but is not limited to, the
supervision of equipment, systems design, programming, and
operating procedures necessary for the development and imple-
mentation of the computerized criminal history program. Such
management control guarantees the priority service needed by
the criminal Justice community served by CENCOM.
