a CIA SPEcTANcO ECTIONS Stee RELEASPAN FULL 000, a. © CSI-0109/93 19 August 1993 MEMORANDUM FOR: Director of Central Intelligence Deputy Director of Central Intelligence VIA: Executive Director FROM: David D. Gries Director, Center for the Study of Intelligence @ SUBJECT: Release of JFK Documents 1. By Monday evening, 23 August, CIA will have met the deadline for release of JFK assassination records. Although the 1992 Act fixed Sunday, 22 August, as the deadline, the National Archives has determined that Monday, 23 August, is the working deadline. 2. One shipment of 23,000 pages was sent to Archives on Monday, 16 August. This shipment is the subject of the New York Times article of 19 August, which states incorrectly that CIA "would make public only about 23,000 pages of documents." PAI is contacting the Times in an effort to correct the record. 3. A second and much larger shipment will be sent to Archives in stages on Friday, Saturday, and Monday, 20-23 August. 4. Although we are pleased to have met the deadline, redactions on many pages and the approximately 10,000 pages withheld in total are likely to lead to criticism, especially from long-time critics like James Lesar, who is quoted in the Times article. 5. After passage of the deadline, CIA will still retain some JFK records. As noted, 10,000 pages are being withheld -in total because they describe sensitive sources and methods. Approximately 7,000 pages originated by other agencies but found in CIA files and sent to originating agencies for coordination have not yet been returned to CIA for release. Approximately 20,000 pages originated by Congressional staffers during the assassination investigation are‘ stored atuCIA and ultimately must be processed for release by Archives, whitch has been delegated authority by Congress to review recards originated by Congress.

HW 53217 SUBJECT: Release of JFK Documents Finally, CIA holds 73 reels of microfilm which we intend to ask the Review Board created by the 1992 Act to exempt from release because a large portion qualify for postponement on grounds of sensitivity, privacy, irrelevance, or duplication of records already released. 5. CIA involvement with JFK records will continue into the future. The White,House has yet to appoint a Review Board. When it does, the Board will have the right to review all records redacted or withheld. This process is likely to require years of effort and much debate back and forth. David D.

Pereira Chief, Historical Review Group SUBJECT: Declassification of Microfilm in Kennedy Assassination Records 1. This memorandum provides a status report, and requests your decision on an option to accelerate declassification (para. 5). 2. As you directed, we have begun reviewing for declassification the microfilmed records contained in the collection of materials related to President Kennedy's assassination. As you recall, we have transferred to the National Archives all the hard copy documents that were releasable. The 73 reels of microfilm contain the equivalent of about 150,000 pages of material, some of which duplicate the hard copy records. 3. We have assigned all available members of the Historical Review Group to the task of declassifying the microfilm. This includes 9 staff officers and 7 annuitants. With this level of effort we would expect to complete review of the microfilm within five-six months. The rate of review is affected by our need to divert resources to examine the large volume of JFK documents that other agencies, such as the FBI, are continuing to send us for coordination. 4. You may find the pace of declassification described above unsatisfactory. Therefore, we present another option for your consideration in the following paragraph. 5. We have estimated what additional resources would be needed to permit us to cut the time for declassification of the microfilm approximately in half. It would probably require an additional number of annuitants equivalent to 12 full-time reviewers to enable us to complete the task by the DoclId: 3274042716 Page 2?

HW 53217 27 September 1993 MEMORANDUM FOR: Director, Center for Studies in Intelligence FROM: Katherine M. Stricker, DO/IRO SUBJECT: Discussion re Release of Form 362 REFERENCE: HRG Memorandum, same subject, 6 November 1992 1. When the subject of the Name Trace Form 362 first came up in the JFK material, the DO's position was that the form is classified, reveals a DO method and must remain classified, regardless of the name on the form being traced. 2. Now the denied in toto documents are being reviewed, especially large categories such as the Name Trace Forms. The DO has reconsidered and, in the interests of cooperating with the HRG so that some words can appear on the form, has proposed a modified position allowing for about 1/4 of the form to be released, again depending on the name being traced. Two HRG officers have indicated that that is unsatisfactory and they want a "less heavy-handed" approach. 3. The reason the DO is so protective of this form is that the it represents one of the most unique and basic of all DO methods, the name trace. That we do name traces is no secret; how we do them is. The portion of the form the DO is prepared to release deals only with the title of the form and the biographic data required to trace an individual. All other portions of the form which deal with what other offices are to be checked and in what order, where the initials and date go, and how to consolidate 201s are part of a pre-printed classified form which cannot be released to the public. Methodology is the primary concern of the DO on this matter, but there is also the question of fabrication should the entire form be released. We have been burned in the past by hostile services or corrupt Americans using our forms for their own purposes--~causing us untold resources in righting the situation, where caught.

HW 53217 SUBJECT: Discussion re Release of Form 362 4. It occurs to us that if the primary reason for releasing part of the Form 362 is to eliminate blank pages, then the goal of the HRG will be accomplished with our proposal. We urge you to consider the remaining DO equities in this matter. Katherine M. Stricker cc: SA/DDO DoclId: 3240427275 Page 3

a CIA SPECIAL, COLLECTIONS a RELEASX IN FULL | S22 Center for the Study of Intelligence CSI-0148/93 18 October 1993 MEMORANDUM FOR: Information Review Officer Directorate of Operations FROM: David D. Gries Director, Center for the Study of Intelligence SUBJECT: Release of Form 362 1. Thank you for your Memorandum of 27 September giving reasons why the Directorate of Operations should not release Form 362 (used for name traces) under standards of the JFK Assassinations Records Act. After careful review, I do not believe that it is defensible to withhold the form itself. Information entered on the form is a separate matter; all or part of it may be withheld in appropriate cases. 2. The reasons follow: e The JFK Act requires that a case be made establishing a clear and convincing link between postponing release of an assassination record and a threat to intelligence operations "of such gravity that it outweighs the public interest." That case cannot reasonably be made for a generic form that lists a number of offices no longer in existence. Examples are the Domestic Collection Division, the Central Reference Service, and the Central Registry. Although an updated version of this form is still in use, release of the form as used in the 1970s would not seem to threaten intelligence operations today. ¢ As you note in your Memorandum, the fact that name traces are made in the Directorate of Operations has become public knowledge. This would weaken an attempt to defend postponement by claiming damage to intelligence methods. Central Intelligence Agency Washington, D.C. 20505 (703) 351-2698 Fax (703) 243-8343 HW 53217 DBoctld:3240427273 Page 2?
HW 53217 SUBJECT: Release of Form 362 e Release of the form would not constitute a precedent. The JFK Act is a unique piece of legislation; it explicitly does not establish precedents for other declassification activities, which are governed by specific laws, such as the Freedom of Information Act or Privacy Act, or by internal CIA regulations, such as the Guidelines for Historical Review. e The Presidential Review Board, which must approve all decisions to postpone or redact documents in the JFK collection, is unlikely to side with CIA in this instance, resulting in a costly and publicly embarrassing reversal of our position. 3. Let's discuss this further and try to find a satisfactory resolution, which may lie in releasing more than one-fourth of the form but less than the complete form. Please give me a call at your convenience. David D. Gr DCI/CSI/DDGries:pn/30210(18 Oct 93) Distribution: Original - Addressee 1 - C/HRG/CSI/DCI 1 - CSI file DoclId: 3274042778 Page 3
