the National Science and Technology Council's Space Weather Operations,
Research, and Mitigation (SWORM) Subcommittee established the SWAG on

60601 et seq.
The SWAG is directed to advise the SWORM on the following:
facilitating advances in the space weather enterprise of the United
States; improving the ability of the United States to prepare for,
mitigate, respond to, and recover from space weather phenomena;
enabling the coordination and facilitation of research to operations
and operations to research, as described in 51 U.S.C 60604(d); and
developing and implementing the integrated strategy under 51 U.S.C.
60601(c), including subsequent updates and reevaluations. The SWAG
shall also conduct a comprehensive survey of the needs of users of
space weather products to identify the space weather research,
observations, forecasting, prediction, and modeling advances required
to improve space weather products, as required by 51 U.S.C.
60601(d)(3).
Matters To Be Considered
