The impact of the current federal budget on the establishment of an operational LANDSAT system is examined with particular emphasis on NOAA responsibilities and efforts to transfer operation of the land satellite system to the private sector. In order to recover the cost of maintenance and operations, the price of system data and products must be raised. Cooperative efforts needed for NASA, EDC, and NOAA to implement the operational system are discussed.
