The Department of Defense allows some of these assets to be used to support civilian agencies in drug interdiction. However. more can be done. This measure requires the Department of Defense to submit an annual list of all forms of assistance that is to be made available to civilian drug enforcement agencies. including the United States Customs Service. the Coast Guard. the Drug Enforcement Administration. and the Immigration and Naturalization Service. In addition. the Defense Department would provide a detailed plan for lending equipment and rendering drug interdictionrelated assistance. Once a list and plan are submitted. the Defense Department is required to convene a conference with all the civilian agencies involved in narcotics interdiction and enter into appropriate memoranda of agreement specifying the distribution of such assistance.
