# CIA Admits Working to Raise SubBy Timothy S. RobinsonWashington Post Staff WriterThe Central Intelligence Agency has finally acknowledged publicly that it was "involved" in the Glomar Explorer's attempts to raise a sunken Russian submarine from the Pacific Ocean floor.The terse acknowledgement came in a court document filed in the U.S. Court of Appeals by the Justice Department two weeks ago. The document asked that a suit against the CIA by a private group concerning the Glomar's financing be sent back to a lower court for further hearings.The filing marks an abrupt change from the previous position taken by the Justice Department in the 18-month-old case that the mere acknowledgement of the CIA's involvement in the project would be harmful to national security. Although the CIA's operation of the project has been reported in numerous publications, the agency has been adamant in its refusal to say publicly whether those reports were true.The case brought by the nonprofit Military Audit Project, which monitors spending by the defense and intelligence establishments, has involved an unprecedented amount of secret court proceedings as the CIA attempted to prove the need for secrecy to U.S. District Court Judge Gerhard A. Gesell. The suit seeks the financial details of the Glomar project.For example, Gesell was forced to issue a secret opinion in the case last October that even the attorneys involved still have not been able to read. The opinion was issued in that secret fashion upon direct orders of the U.S. Court of Appeals, which instructed Gesell to accept secret affidavits from high-level government officials concerning the case.Public affidavits filed at the time by former President Ford's top national security adviser, Lt. Gen. Brent Scowcroft, said disclosures of the CIA involvement or other details about the project might prompt other nations offended by the project to retaliate against the United States.Scowcroft said that retaliation might take the form of "strong measures" that might "endanger U.S military and diplomatic personnel and businessmen overseas."The federal government had previously acknowledged only that the ship was part of a 1969 classified U.S. government project "to accomplish certain secret tasks in furtherance of national security objectives."

Funds for these activities will be budgeted annually and will not exceed limitations imposed by the head of the component concerned.(c) Contract employees are subject to directorate manpower controls and ceilings established by the Director of Central Intelligence during the annual budgetary review cycle. Independent contractors are excluded from ceiling controls.(d) Contracts will, whenever possible, be written and signed. However, when special security or operational factors prevent the execution of a formal written contract, a memorandum in lieu of such a contract may be prepared to document the commitments and obligations of the Agency and the individual.(d) Appropriate security or operational approvals will be obtained before any contractual commitments are made to individuals and before any disclosure to them of classified information.(f) No commitments relating to the use of the services of an employee of another Government agency will be made without prior approval of the Operating Official or Head of Independent Office concerned and the Director of Personnel.(g) No commitments will be made to contract personnel that appointed employment status will be offered at the conclusion of or during any period of their contract service, without prior approval of the Director of Personnel and the Director of Security.(h) Contract employees must meet Agency medical standards prior to the approval and authentication of their contracts. A psychological assessment and psychiatric evaluation of those contract employees in whom the Agency may have more than a short-term interest will be carried out whenever feasible.(i) Independent contractors are normally not required to meet Agency medical standards; however, if their contract contains any provision which obligates the Agency to provide medical or disability benefits. a satisfactory medical examination is required, to include a psycho- logical assessment and psychiatric evaluation, if necessary.126SECRET→Revised: 23 February 1973 (733)

# SECRETSONNEL PERSONNEL HR 20-53c(j) Contract personnel candidates whose employment with the Agency cannot be acknowledged must be provided adequate cover and an appropriate cover legend. This requires that legal entitlements and other contractual benefits be provided and tax liabilities satisfied in a manner consistent with the character of the cover and cover legend.(k) Although staff employees are expected to sever active connections with the Agency upon retirement, there may be instances in which continuation in service under contract after retirement is necessary or clearly in the best interests of the Agency. The use of retired annuitants under contract is governed by policies specified in HR 20-13.(l) Not used.(m) Contracts providing for basic compensation at a rate which, if projected on an annual basis, would exceed the maximum annual rate for a GS-15, will not be executed without the approval of the Director of Central Intelligence. All such requests will be forwarded through the Director of Personnel for his recommendation.c. RESPONSIBILITIES(1) THE DIRECTOR OF PERSONNEL will(a) formulate contract personnel management policies and procedures and provide guidance in improving the effectiveness and flexibility of the program within the Agency;(b) monitor contract personnel management to assure consistency among the directorates while giving due regard to their differing needs;(c) provide a repository for sensitive suitability information using the guidelines for special files set forth in HR 20-60b(4);(d) approve and authenticate contracts;(e) monitor contract employee ceiling authorizations established by the Director of Central Intelligence;(f) maintain computer-based records on contract personnel and ensure currency and accuracy of input and output data.(2) THE DIRECTOR OF SECURITY will(a) establish standards and procedures for granting security approvals which meet the Agency's contract personnel requirements;(b) grant security approvals for the use of contract personnel including their access to classified information and Agency installations;(c) ensure currency and adequacy of security approvals by making periodic reviews and reevaluations;(d) provide a repository for all security information pertaining to contract personnel.(3) THE CHIEF, CENTRAL COVER STAFF will(a) provide cover and cover legends for contract personnel whose employment by the Agency cannot be publicly acknowledged;(b) ensure currency of such cover and cover legends by making periodic reviews and reevaluations;(c) ensure that the methods of providing legal entitlements and contractual benefits and satisfying tax liabilities are consistent with assigned cover and cover legends.(4) THE DIRECTOR OF MEDICAL SERVICES will(a) establish standards and procedures for medical and psychiatric evaluations and for psychological assessment of contract personnel;

# PERSONNELb. POLICY(1) Agents cannot claim rights and privileges normally granted to U.S. Government employees; therefore, they will not be managed in accordance with normal personnel and administrative standards.(a) Initial approval of the Counter Intelligence Staff is required before any commitments are made or any classified information is disclosed to an agent.(b) Agents will receive compensation, benefits, and emoluments in amounts and a manner deemed best by the Operations Directorate to motivate and control them, subject to the following limitations:(1) No commitment may be made to an agent to provide gross com- pensation (basic compensation, additional compensation, fees, etc.) at a rate which, if projected on an annual basis, would exceed the maximum rate for a GS-15, without prior approval of the Director. This limitation applies only to payments made by the Agency. It does not apply to bona fide cover income.(2) No commitment may be made to an agent to provide special bene- fits, without the prior approval of the Director of Personnel. Special benefits are Agency obligations other than basic compensation, normal overseas cost of living payments, and travel or operational expenses.(3) No commitment may be made to an agent that appointed status will be offered at the conclusion of his service unless such com- mitment has been recommended by the Deputy Director for Operations or his designee, with the concurrence of the Director of Security, and has been approved by the Director of Personnel.(c) Engagement of agents will not be subject to Agency personnel ceiling controls.(d) In general, agents will not be required to meet Agency medical stand- ards. However, if an agreement with an agent obligates the Agency to provide medical or disability benefits, a medical examination will be carried out, unless precluded by security considerations.(e) Agents who are U.S. citizens, resident aliens, or foreign nationals in the United States, must pay Federal tax on all income derived from their association with the Agency. Procedures for satisfying Federal tax liability will be determined by the Covert Tax Board. (See HR 20-35.)(f) The use of retired civilian annuitants of the U.S. Government as agents will be governed by policy set forth in HR 20-13.(2) All commitments made or implied to agents will be recorded in either a Formal Agreement or a Memorandum of Oral Commitment.(a) A Formal Agreement is a written agreement, signed by the agent and an authorized Agency representative. Formal Agreements will be nego- tiated whenever operationally feasible.(b) A Memorandum of Oral Commitment is a written record of an agree- ment, signed by an authorized Agency representative but not by the agent. Use of Memorandums of Oral Commitment will be limited to those cases when it is in the Agency's best interest not to solicit an agent's signature on a Formal Agreement.(c) An agent will never be given a copy of the Formal Agreement or Memo- randum of Oral Commitment.→Revised: 23 February 1973 (733)
