The Coast Guard Telecommunications Plan is identified by which instruction?

• A. COMDTINST M2000.4
• B. COMDTINST M3090.6
• C. COMDTINST M2400.1
• D. CMS-21

Answer: (A)

In Coast Guard directives, official plans and policies are published as Commandant Instructions (COMDTINST) with a series number that points to the topic area. The Telecommunications Plan is identified by the within-series document that governs telecommunications and information systems planning, which is COMDTINST M2000.4. This numbering places the plan in the M2000 family and designates the exact instruction that covers it. The other instruction numbers reference different policy areas and would not address the Telecommunications Plan, so COMDTINST M2000.4 is the correct identifying document. When you need the authoritative guidance on telecom planning, look up COMDTINST M2000.4 in the directive library.
