Enclosures: Copy of the letter received from the Assassination Records Review Board (the Board). Details: In 1992, Congress signed the Act mandating federal agencies to release all documents concerning the presidential assassination or information related by conspiracy theory to the assassination. The Act narrowly defined the types of information that agencies could still protect by postponement until the year 2017. The Act also established the Board as a separate entity to oversee the release of material from the federal agencies to the National Archives and Records Administration (NARA). Beyond the Board’s oversight responsibilities, the Act charged the Board with the duties of reviewing agencies’ proposed postponements with the agencies’ evidence for approval or denial and researching additional areas of information for new material related to the assassination. \ The FBI has been working with the Board since its inception to meet the. requirements of the Act. On November 29, 1996, the Board wrote a letter to the FBI setting forth a formal compliance program. The letter requested the FBI’s cooperation with the Board “in discharging its responsibility of assuring Congress and the American’ people that the goals of the. JFK Act will be accomplished to the greatest reasonable extent.” The compliance program is the Board’s answer to demonstrating “to the American public that a thorough, good- faith, and diligent effort have been made to locate and release all remaining assassination-related records within the control of the United States Government (and that the Government is not hiding any such materials from public disclosure).” With this philosophy in mind, the Board has forwarded letters to the FBI requesting additional information for their review and possible Docld: 32319993 Page 2?

The original documents should be transferred to the JFKTF at FBIHQ by July 10, 1997. The original documents are necessary to meet the requirements of the Act.

Therefore, any responsive documents should be copied before forwarding to the JFKTF. If the Board decides that the documents do not fall within the realm of the Act, the documents will be returned to your office, but not until the Board completes this project.
