Bir, ADD-Acm, KOD-ty. info. Mginh TR ee DETAILS: By memorandum dated 10/25/93, copy attached, you requested that a Supervisory PLS Specialist from the Civil Discovery Review Unit, and that supervisor’s team be detailed to the JFK Task Force for six months to assist in the review and production of documents relating to the Kennedy assassination. By addendum dated 11/1/93, LCD agreed to detail one team of PLSs until 2/11/94. On 1/28/94, we met to discuss the volume of work remaining to be addressed by the JFK Task Force. You requested that the temporary detail of CDRU personnel be extended through June, 1994. Although I was unable to accommodate your request, we have continued to discuss potential compromise positions with your Deputy, Gary L. Stoops. Recently, we agreed to the following compromise. First, the entire team will be left in place through March, 1994, to permit completion of the processing and production of the Lee Harvey Oswald files. The team will be returned to CDRU on or before 4/4/94. Second, we have agreed to extend the detail of PLSs Kevin VanHutton until 7/5/94, to permit him to train a supervisor from among the IRD personnel assigned to the project. Third, we have agreed to extend the detail of PLS Gary E. Emrick and to @etail PLS Joyce Hollman Taylor, an experienced senior document reviewer, to the JFK Task Force, to assist PLS VanHutton. We have not yet agreed on a reporting date for PLS Taylor, but we did agree that she will be returned to LCD on 7/5/94, with PLSs VanHutton and Gary Emrick. I trust this accurately reflects our agreement and is satisfactory to you. Docld: 32319273 Page 4
