The Administrator may maintain special missions or staffs outside the United States in such countries and for such periods of time as may be necessary to carry out the purposes of this Act. To the degree permitted by security and financial considerations, the Secretary should give favorable consideration to requests by the Administrator that the Secretary exercise authority under section 606(a)(2)(B) of the Secure Embassy Construction and Counterterrorism Act of 1999 ( 22 U.S.C. 4865(a)(2)(B) ) to waive certain requirements of that Act in order to permit the United States Agency for International Development to maintain such missions or staffs at locations separate from the United States embassy.
The Administrator may appoint a head, who shall be known as the Mission Director, of each office or staff maintained under subsection (a). Each Mission Director may receive such compensation and allowances as are authorized by the Foreign Service Act of 1980, not to exceed those authorized for a chief of mission (as defined in section 102(a)(3) of that Act), as the Administrator deems appropriate. The Mission Director’s responsibilities shall include— serving as the primary development and humanitarian advisor to the Chief of Mission; coordinating preparation of the Country Development Cooperation Strategy; and supervising and directing United States development cooperation with, and United States humanitarian operations in, such country.
The responsibilities assigned to the Mission Director under subsection
(d)shall not preclude the Secretary of State from appointing an individual to oversee and coordinate the full range of economic and security assistance programs in a country.
