ARRB meeting 17 November - Results

OFFICE:

SUBJECT:

REFERENCE:

1. Reconsideration of the release of Warrenton as ClA Records Center:

The Board accepted the Agency's request for reconsideration; postponed until 2017.

2. CIA use of State Cover:

The Board did not find the Agency's evidence persuasive; released.

This determination affects 16 documents ( 3 duplicates) that were pending Board action. Future documents will be impacted by this

decision. Copies of the documents have been sent to DO and OGC for reconsideration/appeal review.

3. Release date of Nosenko NBR records:

The Board moved the release date from 2017 to 2010 giving the Agency the right to review and appeal at that time.

4. Cuban Revolutionary Council (CRC) Financial Records:

The Board accepted the ARRB staff's recommendation (concurred in by CIA) that only "General Statement for Month" records

for January 1960 and to January 1995 be processed as Assassination Records, and that the approximately 6,000 remaining pages of

financial records be declared to have "no believed relevance (NBR)" to the JFK assassination.

organization be processed as a assassination record, and that the remainder of the CIA Ramparts Memorandum be declared NBR. The

memorandum discusses the truth or fallacy of the allegations in Ramparts the Agency used non-governmental organizations for support

and funding of worldwide anti-Communist operations. Over one hundred organizations are mentioned in the Ramparts article. The

relevant organization is the International Rescue Committee; the IRC aided Oswald on his return to the US.

6. Book Cables Dissemination Lists:

The Board accepted the Agency's request that book cable dissemination list be protected in full even if they contain stations

that are releasable.

7. Document # 104-10072-10232:

The Board rejected the Agency's request to protect the full crypt (LINLUCK). The document has been sent to the DO for

reconsideration/appeal review.

8. Other Documents:

The Board accepted the Agency's and ARRB staff's recommendations on 204 additional documents.

Reconsideration and Appeals:

If the Agency wishes to ask the Board to reconsider a decision or plans to appeal to the President, the ARRB staff has

requested that it be notified prior to the letter to the Agency informing the DCI of the Board's decision. We expect the letter on or around

Dec. 1st; the Board's determinations will also be published in the Federal Register on that date. As mandated by the White House, the

Agency has seven days after notification to appeal a JFK Board decision to the President.
