The U.S. Department of Homeland Security Science and Technology Directorate and the Federal Emergency Management Agency requested the Homeland Security Operational Analysis Center's support in meeting this requirement. The authors of this report document findings from the resulting analysis.

That report sounds tedious, and costly to produce. Elon and Vivek should take a hard look at killing it. There are lots of mandatory reports embedded in various legislation forcing some agency or regulated company to produce annual reports on controversial topics with the hope they will write something that can be used politically later to twist their arms and walk them further down the gang plank of fealty.
