Beltsville Messaging Center : ウィキペディア英語版 | Beltsville Messaging Center The Beltsville Messaging Center (BMC), formerly named the Beltsville Communications Center (also known as the Beltsville Communications Annex), is a United States Department of State facility located in Beltsville, Maryland, next door to the U.S. Special Collection Service (SCS). It serves as the primary relay facility for the Diplomatic Telecommunications Service and services the communications needs of various U.S. government programs and agencies, including the SCS. ==History== Prior to 1985, the Department of State's telecommunications system resided at the department's headquarters in Washington, D.C. State Department leaders worried that this left the department's communications infrastructure vulnerable to catastrophic disasters and emergencies, and thus in 1984 Congress authorized the construction of a backup communications facility, the Beltsville Communications Center, in Beltsville, Maryland, north of the capital. The facility has since expanded to become a major communications network management center, serving as the primary hub of the Diplomatic Telecommunications Service. The facility covers and, as of 1998, was staffed by 32 civil service and foreign service employees and 56 contract support personnel.〔 In April 2007, it was reported that a fire at the facility had temporarily disabled its communications services and that the State Department was forced to use its backup facility at Station D, Warrenton Training Center, near Brandy Station, Virginia.
