In 2364, this agency was involved in several events:
- Prior to stardate 41775, it supported a request offered by Sirius Cybernetics Corporation. The request was that the USS Heart of Gold would, in the course of its survey of Sector 500, modify its exploration by avoiding subsectors and to refrain from using interferometry scans in another subsector. Explanation given for this request was that the Federation was in diplomatic negations with Antica, a planet in that sector.
