The PRETECHREP contains a general description of the CEE. It alerts the CMEC, other technical elements, and the tactical units to significant technical information of immediate tactical importance. It can also be used for reporting inventories at collection points through intelligence channels so that location, quantities, and type of equipment can be monitored. Figure E-2 shows an example of a PRETECHREP. Corps TECHINT teams and possibly CMEC teams will prepare a PRETECHREP on all CEM after preliminary screening. This report is first transmitted by radio directly to the Corps TECHINT LNE, from the captured equipment site. It is then forwarded to the CMEC.

The report will normally be treated as unclassified during this transmission. The CMEC's technical analysts determine what is of importance from the report, and give the team instructions through the LNE on what items need more detailed reporting or evacuation. During this time the team will collect all documents off the CEE and will record— E-2 PRELIMINARY TECHNICAL REPORT
