Re: Submission of CIA's Initial Statement of Compliance Under the JFK

Assassination Records Collection Act, 44 U.S.C. § 2107

Dear Mr. Harrelson:

I have been asked by Jeremy Gunn to take responsibility, along with Robert Skwirot

and Michelle Combs, for handling the Review Board's JFK Act Compliance Program

with respect to the Central Intelligence Agency.

Mr. Gunn has informed me that you have agreed to provide us with the CIA's initial

compliance statement (as it is described in our November 27, 1996 letter to the CIA) by

the end of November 1997. Thereafter, we can establish a reasonable time for the CIA

to prepare and submit its Final Declaration of Compliance. The CIA's Final Declaration

will be submitted to Congress and the President.

Thank you for your cooperation.

Sincerely,

Ronald S. Hawn

Ronald G. Haron

Associate General Counsel
