6. a. One Reserve or National Guard Division could be called to active duty to replace the deployed division for a period of 30 to 60 days at an estimated cost of:
(1) Thirty days $ 5,142,827
(2) Sixty days $ 9,068,305
b. The divisions involved are currently not at full strength, and the corps headquarters concerned would require a minimum of 30 days prior notice to provide approximately 4,900 USAR fillers to bring one division up to full strength.
c. To call one reserve component division to active duty for this period would require Presidential declaration of an emergency as required by Section 673, Title 10, US Code, though there is the legal possibility that a National Guard division might be called up for this period by a State governor, if he can be persuaded to do so, without such Presidential declaration.
