We then discussed our relationships with major anti-Castro organizations It was agreed-that we could release the fact that as a funding vehicle for the US Govt, CIA provided support including funding in general terms In soma cases we may find it necessary to reveal gross ballpark figures for annual budgets The 0O would prefer that we continue to protect specific funding amounts where possible were specifically concerned about releasing specific amounts paid to individuals or families of Bay of Pigs members where individuals could claim that one was more than another. In supporting these organizations it was acknowledged by the DO that we could release generic operational activities-such as-publishing journals or financing goodwill tours by prominent exile Cubans to Latin America The DO reminded us that in reviewing these relationships with Cubans and organizations, it was important to protect CIA personnel, agents and assets and any specifics on tradecraft When asked about of training sites, Linda felt that the actual location should still be protected in spite of the fact that have been mentioned in open literature: With regard to DO location numbers (19 for Cuba) she thought this was OK for the 60-63 time frame but would check with LA Div. She had no problem with the release ot the Bell location in cables since it was no longer used: cc: J. Barry Harrelson DA Richard D. Kovar;Y- @ DA John F.

These issues appear throughout the JFK collection and by stating our position wp front we hope to facilitate the Board' $ review and to reach an agreement that will be mutually satisfying to the Board and the Agency- Cryptonys Except for cryptonyms related to operational assets or activities involving Mexico or Miami, the Agency will release the main component of, cryptonyms and withhold the two-letter digraph Treating cryptonyms in this manner will protect the nationalities of individuals and operations that are not pertinent to Oswald or the JEK investigation and render an easier reading- of the written material Country File_Desigators We Will delete the first element of operational activity and operational interest files in those instances when the credibility of the- narrative is not affected: The first element f the file number corresponds to the alphabetical position of the country name which is easily discernible, whereas the subsequent two elements relate to type of activity or interest and specific subject_ Action Indicator (Slug) Lines Generally, we will release the entire action indicator line of a document 'Occasionally, however, we will withhold portions when the CL BY 0695930 DECL OADR DRV HUM 4-82 SECRET <; #~ yet only ================================================== Page 5 ================================================== 13-00000 SbLKD SUBJECT : Position on Cryptonyms , Country-Designators, Action Indicators and Employee True Names context identifies a source or a relationship with a specific liaison service_ True Names of Staff:Employees In most instances we will release names Of employees who have retired in an overt status_ and were serving in Headquarters when cited in a document We will Continue to protect the true names of employees cited as serving in a field position_ References to fleld personnel in true nane are uncomon , however, since pseudonyms are normally used in correspondence between Headquarters and the field. 4Lv Wickham, Jr. 2 SECRET ================================================== Page 6 ================================================== 13-00000 A tion 4 Assassination Records Review Board 600 E Street NW Znd Floor Washington, DC 20530 74 (202) 724-0088 Fax: (202) 724-0457 r November 9, 1995 CIA HAS NQ QBJECTION TO DECIASSWX ATIOX ANDIOR HANDELIVERED RZLEASE CF CIA WFORMATION IN THIS DOcUVENT Mr: John Pereira, Director Historical Review Center for the of Intelligence Central Intelligence Agency Washington; DC , 20505 Re: ARRB xequests for evidence Dear John: I thought that it mightbe helpful to you if I were to provide you with our current assessment of the status of our review of the Agency's assassination records and point to where we would like to proceed in the future Iwould like to begin by acknowledging the efforts made by the Historical Review Group to facilitate our review ofrecords Ithas been, as you know, a difficult and time- consuming process both for the Agency and the Review Board. We very much appreciate the personal cooperation of you and your staff. We continue to be concerned by the slow progress that has been made: Although we perceive that the task hasbeen more difficult and time-consuming than Congress anticipated,wehave found that the careful education process in which we have been involved has helped educate us with respect to your concerns and, we hope, has helped demonstrate to you the Review Board's concerns We must; however; begin to pick up the pace In many circumstances we are reviewing and then re-reviewing the same documents over and over We are also frequently put in the position ofnot provided with evidence in a timely manner SO that we can make our presentations to the Board. While many of these difficulties are understandable and perhaps even inherent to the start-up of the process in which we are engaged we must expedite the process Rather than dealing with dozens of records at Board meetings, we need to move towards a schedule where hundreds of records will be reviewed at Board meetings From our perspective, it seems that it is essential that the Agency be prepared to allocate significant additional resources to the process of reviewing the records and making evidence available to the Board Board Memeers: John R.

Where issues exist that the Board has not yet addressed, and where the Agency would like to see postponements upheld, specific information must be provided to support a postponement General statements, while useful in identifying the underlying issues involved, do not provide the Board with the complete knowledge and understanding of the issue that is necessary to make an informed judgment regarding release of the information The Board is looking forward t0 receiving the CIA"s evidence in support of the postponement of true names: As you know, wehave planned for some time to devote the December (12 and 13) meeting to this important issue: Additionally, you will find enclosed with this letter the next in our series of information requests, covering boxes 7-9 of the Oswald collection. We are submitting these requests now in an attempt to give HRG as much advance notice as possibleofwhich records we will be reviewing for the January 4 meeting: Evidence for records to be reviewed January 4 should be provided no later than December 13, 1995. Wehope that during HRG's review of the January documents, the standards outlined in_ this letter will be kept in mind: Ifat any an issue is deemed SO sensitive that a briefing is required, ARRB staff will meet with you at your convenience: Thank you for attention to this matter: Sincerely yours, Dusk Utuiwell David G.

Jeremy Gunn Subject: Board Guidelines on Releese of FIA Officer Names The Staff understands the Review Board to accept the following general guidelines on the release of true names of CLA officers: When the true name ofa CIA officer (ie past O present employee of CIA) appears in a document; the Board will to its review a presumption that the true name will be released. In order to overcome this presumption of release, CLA must provide evidence demonstrating that release of the name would be harmful In order to meet its burden ofproving harm, CIA must tailor the evidence to satisfy one of the three categories identified in Part I (below): However, when the name of an officer is ofsuch importance that the public interest would not be served in postponing a name; the Board may release the true name consistent with the principles identified in Part I (below) Part I. Categories of Officers: 1. Living officers. For living (present or former) officers, CIA must prove that (a) the officer is living outside the United States (or reasonably is expected to reside or travel outside the Unted States in the foreseeable future); () the officer is either working or is retired under cover; and (c) the officer objects to the release of his or her true name. IFCIA satisfies this burden, the Board presumptively (see Part I below) will release a pseudonym and postpone the officer s true name until the year 2010. 2. Where current status of former officer is unknown: Where CLA has been unable to contact the former officer because his or her location is unknown, CIA must present a faith showing that reasonable attempts have been made to locate the officer: If the Board iS convinced that CLA hasmade a faith showing thatit was unable to locate the former officer; the Board will postpone the true name until June 1, 1997. However, the Board may postpone the true bring good good ================================================== Page 10 ================================================== 13-00000 2 name beyond June 1, 1997, if CIA provides to the Board, to 1,1997 , additional evidence that satisfes the criteria of either category 1 (above) or category 3 (below): 3. Names having effect on current intelligence interests If CLA believes that the celease of a true name may compromise currently existing intelligence operations or might otherwise cause an identifiable harm, it must provide evidence that: (a) the officer currently is engaged in clandestine activities; () the release of the true name would compromise ongoing intelligence operations or would compromise operations with current intelligence value; (c) the release of the true-name would reasonably be expected t0 cause significant harm t0 a living person (including family members), or (d) the release of the true name would cause a significant harm to the national security or the foreign relations of the United States If CLA satisfies this burden the Board presumptively (see Part II below) will release a pseudonym and postpone the true name until 2010 or until such other date as CIA reasonably shows to be a date on which the release could be made without causing harm Part II, Names of Officers Who Are Important to the Assassination Story- The Board presumptively will postpone the release of names consistent with categories 1-3 of Part I However, for certain persons whose names appear in a context that is important to the assassination stOry, the Board may nevertheless vote to release the true name: In all such instances, the Board will notify CIA of the importance of such a person and provide CIA with the opportunity to provide additional information in support of postponing the release of the names These names shall be reviewed on a case-by-case basis, with due consideration being given to the importance of the person to the assassination story and such evidence of harm as CIA may provide: May _ prior ================================================== Page 11 ================================================== 13-00000 ADMINISTRATIVE : INTERNAL USE ONLY From the Desk of Linda, C.

Of course; apy suggestions you have at this point will be extrerely helpful. My sense is that this issue of protecting retirees is something everyone at CIA will want to appeal just on the principal of it, but that we should do everything possible to avoid an appeal [Until we work out an agreement with the Board, you should continue to prepare that appeal you are drafting] In the meantime, can you please provided me the following figures: 1. The # of peopte we sent letters to regarding the potential Board releases (isnti it 1502) and the following breakdown if available: living abroad # of those retired under cover vs. those whose cover has been rolled back or lifted of those who still work for US in covertlovert capacity 2.

We Qeed to finalize with the Board how to handle this issue: At the last meeting the Board agreed that thiswas a really important decision, but that they were not getting the information they need to make the right decision. At the last meeting; the Board intimated that they might be willing to delay this release, if CIA and the Board could come to a mutually agreeable way to deal with cover employees: understood from Jeff that this is an issue that CIA will appeal on just the principal If this is true, the Board should understand what our ultimate position is 0n this, but that we are willing to cooperate with them to find a suitable alternative (using pseudos or generic descriptions like 'case officer") 33 will be out all next week but Barry Harellson/HRG (30292) and John Pereira/CSI) (30373) will be happy to fill you in on the details Barry will be contacting Bob Caudle next week to find out how the March 18 meeting will be handled.

He sees our proposal on the names as an example of how the proces8 would work _ Marwell recommends that we include examples Of documents containing names of little or no connection to the story- Bob Skwirot (he was in the meeting with Marwell) said that there 'were a number of names that appeared in only one document and that the number of names had reached 590 Marwell wants to start immediately on preparing a joint list of important/releasable individuals Action Advise DO , OGC _ upper management of our propogal to reopen the name ibsue (how? ) Need to decide what level would gign the memo to the Board, and who would prepare the memo If you agree I can gend a copy of my memo to you to Linda} and Fred for background use HRG and DO team will collect exampleg of documents and prepare (with ARRB staff) a list of individuals The DO Bhould focug on any person on the list that needs protection and' prepare the evidence ASAP (i.e_ not wait for the iggue to be resolved) SECRET (6 ================================================== Page 26 ================================================== 13-00000 SECRET WORKING PAPER New_ ARRB Review Process Marwell and I spent some time digcugging how a new process would work He would like to test the process for the April meeting_ The following 18 a rough outline with my comments : 1) HRG reviewers would review the documents the same a8 they do now (postponemente would be blue highlighted) [no change in our procedures] 2 ) ARRB staff would review the blue highlighted document a) If they agree_ they would stamp the document 6 ARRB approved" and return it to HRG to process for NARA _ b) If they digagree they would highlight in yellow (creating green highlighting) If the two staffs cannot resolve the issue then the document would go before the Board . [Major change ARRB staff would no longer record all the proposed postponements no DO damage review, no detailed determination letter requiring HRG reviewers to use the 6 'grid" to determine what happen ] 3 ) Non-isgue documents would be sent to the ARRB staff when ready for NARA _ At that time the ARRB staff woula prepare a gimplified final determination notice and letter to the Agencies [ No action would be required; HRG would file the final determination notice with the document] 4) "Green" highlighted documents that go to the Board would be handled the same a8 today _ [The expectation is that a lot less documents would require Board action J Commenta : With some fine tuning, I think this process could work, and we would be able to complete the re-review of documents released in 1993 and 1994 by Oct 1998 Completing the entire project will depend on how quickly the 6 'non-related" material and the 6 addition recordg 9 are reviewed by the ARRB staff SECRET ================================================== Page 27 ================================================== 13-00000 SECRET WORKING PAPER Pending Issues As part of the change in process Marwell wants the Board to focus on outstanding substantive issues a8 oppoged to micro managing the review We discussed the following: 1) Nosenko ARRB staff needs to review the non-related material and make a recommendation to the Board Marwell leans toward not treating all of Nosenko as assasgination related.

First; on November 13, 1996,it adopted guidelines with respect to reviewing "Segregated Collectons" with regard to Information thet is "not believed relevant? (NBR) to the assassination: Second, in February 1997, the Review Board requested Congress to extend its tenure for one additlonal year: It is the Review Board's Judgment that; even with the assumptlon that our operatlons may be extended through Fiscal Year 1998, the Revlew Board cannot hope to complete revlew ot postponements in the Segregated Collectlons under the curent method of revew: In particular; a reasonable modltication of current postponement standards would greatly expedite and facllltate the release of additional Information and records Othenwise, the Reviow Board might cease operations without having reviewed: clalmed postponements in tens of thousands ot pages ot FBI and CIA records: Postponement Criteria for the Segregated Collections In a further effont t0 enhance the Aeview Board's work; the Review Board now issues these revlsed guidelines for the review of records in the Segregated Collectlons ' (These guldelines do not aftect the FBI's Core and Related Flles or the CIA's 201 file on Oswald;) The four principal factors that underlie these review guidelines are: first, contlnuing; to the greatest reasonable extent; the Revlew Board's established guldelines for postponements that have emerged over the past two years; second, establlshing guidellnes conslstent with the Revlew Board's declslon regarding NBR records; third, establishing reasonabla and workable guldellnes that wil enablo the_ 'The regulatlons adopted by the Boardon November 13, 1996, detine "Segregated Collectlons" as Including first; FBI records that were requested by: (@) the House Select Commlttee on Assassinations (HSCA") in conjunctlon with lts Investlgation into the Kennedy assasslnation; (b) the Church Committee in conjunctlon Wlth Its inquiry Into Issues related to the Kennedy assasslnation; and (0) by other bodies (e-g, Plke Committee, Abzug Committee, etc:) that relate to the Kennedy assassination; and second; CIA records includlng (@) the CIA's Sequestered Collectlon of.63 boxes as Well as one box of mlcrotilm records and the microfilm records (box 64), and (b) several boxes ot CIA staff "woiking files" ================================================== Page 30 ================================================== 13-00000 04/23/97 MED 15:54 FAI 202 724 0457 AK*p Vv" 2 - Review Board; the ARRB staff; the CIA, and the FBI to complete the significant amount of work that remains; and finally, to provide reasonably consistent standards tor the review of postponements that woula apply equally to CIA and FBI records: The following are, in summary for, guidelines for reviewing postponements in the Segregated Collectlons:? CIA Source and FBI Intormant and National Security Asset Postponements There are, of course, similaritles and differences between FBI infomants and CIA sources; Like FBI intomants and national securty assets; CIA sources may or may not be paid for the infomatlon that they provide and may or may not be providers of infomation over the long-term: When providing Intormation' to the Bureau; FBI infomants generally are understood to be' cooperatlng with law enforcement officials tor a legal and (egitlmate purose: It is.often the Case; although not always, that FBI intomants understand that at some point their name might surface in conjunction with a criminal prosecution and that may need to:testify in court: Foreign CiA sources and FBI national securlty assets, however; are not necessarily deemed to be cooperating wth law entorcement officials but may; In fact, be committlng the crime of espionage against thelr native country by cooperating with US authorties Furthemmore, unlike FBI infommants, CIA sources and FBI natlonal securty assets presume that thelr names wlll not be released publicly and they certainly presume (in the ordinary course) that thelr Identitles will not surface in criminal trials: As a practical matter, it is generally much easler today for the FBI t0 locate a tomer infomant who resides in tha United States than it Is for the CIA and FBI to locate fommer sources and natlonal security assets. Despite these differences differences which would generally suggest a greater degree of protection belng owed to CIA sources and FBI natlonal securlty assets Be the issues in tems of postponements are tundamentally simllar: 'The exlsting "NBR" guidellnes allow the Revlew Board to remove from detailed consideratlon those records or files that truly have no apparent relevance to the assassinatlon; Nevertheless; a significant number ot files In the Segregated Collections contaln records that shed some Ilght on Issues that the HSCA explored &8 potentlally relevant t0 the assassinatlon of Presldent Kennedy: The following critera would apply t0 all records In-the Segregated Colleotlons, including records containing some NBR redactions: they thoy ' ================================================== Page 31 ================================================== 13-00000 047 23/97 RED 15:54 FAX Zuz 724 0457 AKD 5v "3 - CIA Sources The Revlew Board established guidelines, durng Its December 1996 meeting for handling CIA source iesues and applied those guidelines at the January 1997 meetng: These guidelines directed the protection of names and Identltylng Infomation Of CIA sources in cases where the identlty ot the source Is of low publlc Interest or Is peripheral to the JFK assassinatlon: The Board's decision was based on two factors: the,concem that since CIA sources generally Iive outside the United States, they could risk ham I thelr identities were revealed: Moreover; many of the sources referenced In CIA records appear infrequently and are of relatlvely low public interest. Therefore, In records where the identity of the source Is of imporance for understanding the assassination; the CIA will be required to provide additional evldence to support the protection ot the source's identity:? In cases where the identfy of the source Is peripheral to tha assassination story, the intormation wIll be postponed until 2017 . FBI Natlonal Security Assets FBI natlonal security assets should be treated in the same manner as CIA sources: FBI Intormants Infonant issues represent the largest category ot postponements In the FBI's Segregated Collection, as do In the "core" FBI assassinatlon flles; They also provide the greatest opportunity lor streamlining the review process Currently; there are ten members ot;the Bureaus JFK Task Force who are responsible tor researching individual infomants in response to evdence requests from the Review Board:' They retrieve and review the Infomants' files and attempt; through DMV , Social Security, and other database searches; to detenlne if the intomant is alive. Under current Review Board standards for "core" files, thls work is necessary to provilde evidence to support redactlng the infomant's name, regardless of whether the infonant provlded Information: Removing the requirement of proving whether infomants are allve In the Segregated Collectlons would free 4p signlficant resources that could be deployed to revlewing unprocessed HSCA subject files: The new approach to HSCA subjects Is to protect Informant-Identifying intomation; 'An example would ba the case ot John Sceiso (pseud:): The Board found that his identity is relevant to the assassination story and CIA offered evldence of a contnuing need t0 protect the Identity: In this case, "Scelso" documents would continue t0 be scheduled for release in flve yeare: "Six work full-time on infomant evldence, four devote about halt thelr time to Intomant evidence; they ================================================== Page 32 ================================================== 13-00000 4 without requiring the Bureau t0 make a showing that the infomant is alive: This protection would extend to individuals characterized as symbol-number infommants, "PSIs;" "PCls;" "established sources; "panel sources;" and the like S designations that indicate an ongolng relationship with the FBI: It would not extend to individuals who requested that their identity be protected In an isolated contact with the FBI. or to local and state law enforcement officers: The "infomant-identifylng infomation" to be protected would Include the customary (i.e,, infommant-specific) portions of intomant symbol numbers and file numbers; infomant names; and at least potentially descriptions of, and infomation recelved from, the infomant: How much; If any, ot the latter type of infomation should be redacted would be the principal tocus of staff-level discussions with the FBI. The staffs principal goal in this process, with regard to each infomant, would be t0 release as much infommation that is relevant t0 understanding the assasslnation as possible: In discusslons with the FBI, the staft would be prepared; if necessary, to concede redactlon of infonmant-Identifying intomation that Is unrelated to the assassination in order to ensure that more pertinent inforation is released.s The presumption will be that an infomant's identity will be released if the intomant provides "posittve" intomation about an assassination-related Issue. To overcome this presumption of release for Infomants with "posltive" infomation, the FBI would need to make a particularized showing that the identlfying Information should not be released: To the extent that an inforanrs identity Is protected, it will be postponed until 2017 , CIA Employee Name Postponemente Over the past year the CIA has addressed the employee name issue and has released some names that it had previously asked the Board to postpone. But during that time the list of names has grown to a size that had not been Imagined at the time the work began: To date, the Revilew Board statf has identifled in the JFK Collectlon over 650 names ot CIA employees. These names appear in more than 1000 documents already reviewed by the Board and numerous additional records that have not been processed: While some of these employee names are important t0 the assassination story, many appear only a tew times in the entlre JFK Collection and seem to add Iittle, if any, important information: _ sIn HSCA subjects; there typically will not be information about Ruby; Oswald or the assassination Itself: However; in a file on; for example, Sam Giancana, there may be infomant reports on Giancana'8 support of anti-Castro actlvities; and reports from the same Infomant on day-to-day numbers operatlons in the Chlcago area. The staff would set a higher prlority.on release of the tomer reports than on the latter;. yet ================================================== Page 33 ================================================== 13-00000 04/23/97 WED 15 :55 #AX Zuz 724 043 ( AN 5 - CIA's argument t0 protect employee names emphaslzes a number of polnts Flrst; since many employees are "under cover;" the malntenance of that cover is critical to gatherng intelllgence. CIA argues that identification of a name can identify the cover provider and jeopardlze operatons, Second, although the majority of names are %f retired CIA employees; CiA has a confidentiality agreement With them and many do not want their past Agency attillation released; The argument here is that release may Jeopardlze business relationships or personal satety: Such arguments have already been presented to.the Board: Their mert can only be deterlned on a case-by-case basis: However; due to the volume ot names in the JFK Collection; the individual review and evaluatlon of each case would delay slgntticantly the review of documents and ultimately lead t0 less total Infomatlon becoming available to the public. CIA has proposed, &nd the Revew Board agrees, that CIA employee names be treated in a manner slmilar t0 that applled to Source names: to postpone untll 2017 those employee names that are ot low public interest or are of perpheral interest to the assassination: It will be presumed that employee names will be released If their identities are important to the assassinatlon story unless the CIA Is able to provide specific Information of a potentlal ham Of release. (CIA acknowledges the presumption of release unless specific evidence Is provided to the Review Board that hamm t0 national security or to personal safety would result from the release of the employee name:) FBI "Forelgn Counterintelligence" Postponements It is presumed that the FBI wlll; at least partially, cany over its post-appeal standards for disolosing "FCI" activities targeting Communist-bloc nations To the extent that the HSCA subjects reflect "FCI" activities agalnst other natlons that have not been addressed by the Revilew Board in the "core" files, the FBI will be allowed to redact diract discussion of such activtles, unless the infomatlon In the proposed redaction meaningfully contrlbutes to the understanding of the assassination: FBI and CIA Foreign Laison Postponements The criterla for these postponements would not;, in the abstract, depart slgniticantly from the Ravlew Board's ourrent approach of releaslng infomation received through Iiaison channels; while protecting direct acknowledgment of the source of the Intommation: 'In practice, however; the staff would be more Ilexible in protecting text that Implies, although mey not unamblguously state, that a foreign govemment Is the source of panlcular intomation; Nevertheless, the more slgnlflcant the Intormation Is to any assassinatlon-related Issue, the more Information would be released under these guldelines: ================================================== Page 34 ================================================== 13-00000 6 - CIA Stations and: Other Issu0s Over the past two years the Review Board has established other guidelines that wlll continue to the revltew process, some of which will be outlined here: For CIA statlons, all locatlons related to the Mexico will be released during the perod 1960-69. Outside of that window, will be released on & case-by-case basis should the identity of the station be critical to underetanding the assassination: Other statlons, except for those Identified as particularly sensitive , will be released from the beginnlng ot the Kennedy administration until the publication of the Warren Commlsslon repont;, (i.e , January 1, 1961 to October 1, 1964). Outside of these windows, stations will be postponed: ' Cable prefixes, dlspatch preflxes, and field report prefixes would be postponed or released according to the same windows as the stations to which they reter: CIA Job titles also are redacted or opened along with the station at which the officer served: Crypts would be released along Iines slmilar to other infomation; AII "LI" crypts, except those consldered partlcularly sensitive would be released through October 1, 1964, as are "AM" crypts and U.S. govemment crypts In other areas, only the dlgraph Is protected: Again; the exception is sensitive crypts, wich Would be protected In their. entirety: After October 1, 1964, the presumption shifts towards protectlon of the crypts, except those that provlde meaningful Infomation about the essassination story: (For example, crypts pertlnent to Garrison-era documents would likely carry the same presumption of release as those generated during the Warren Commission ) Sunvelllance methods will be released if the nature of the surveillance has a material bearing on information related to the assassination unless CIA provides evidence demonstrating the political or operational sensitivity, in whlch case the Infomation wlll be released In 2017 , e:larblregsleview,wpd guide City story they ================================================== Page 35 ================================================== 13-00000 APR 15 '97 04:5SPM USGOVERNMENT P.2/14 SECRET Cenbal Intelllgena Anty WartteM 0C ZoSOS 15 April 1997 MEMORANDUM FOR : Davld G _ Marwell Executive Director Aggagelnation Recordb Revlew Boara SUBJECT : CIA Employeeg (We requebt that chie memorandum be returned to CIA once the Revlew Board hag completea ite deliberationb on the: Lasueb diacusged below ) 1 (U) Ieeue The purpoee of thla meno 1s to relate CIA 8, concerng co the Revlew Board regarding the release Of the true namea Of CIA employees that appear in the JFK Collection and to pregent a propogal on how thie problem might be addregged _ I Rectuel_Backyroune 2 (U) To date_ approximately 600 true nameb of CIA employees have. been Identifled in the JFR Collectlon_ gome Of thebe employeee are important to the JFK gtory_ and CIA will continue co work wlth the Revlew Board to reieabe a8 many Of thege nameg a8 poebible Many names however_ appear' Only a few tImee In che entire JFK Coilection and appear to add nothing to the hletorical recora . 3 (U) Onder guidelineg adopted by the Revlew Board On or about 20 March 1996 any nameg Of CIA employeee are pregumptively releaged uniesa CIA providee gpecific evldence to the Review Boara that harm co the national Becuricy or Lo the employee would likely result from Buch release: gince thege guidelines were adopted, It na8 became increagingly clear that the number of namea at iggue, and , In most cage8 , their tenuoub connection Lo the JFX gtory, make thib approach unworkable with regard Co both CIA 8 oblIgatlon to CL BX : 2224130 CL REASON : 1.5 (c) DECL ON : X1 DRV FROM: HUM 4 - 82 SECRET ================================================== Page 36 ================================================== 13-00000 'APR 15 '97 04:SSPM USGOVERNMENT P.3/14 SECRET Subject : CIA Employeee procect natlonal 8ecurity inforatlon and the Revlew Board' 3 duty to Inform the public about the JFR aababsinatlon In a timely and accurate faghlon_ The taek Of locating and Informing hundreds Of former employeee scattered all Over the country and the world ha8 been a formldable One Some empl nave contacted 4g to report their concerng about a eguspyeeouaz 0 letter purportIng to be from CIA which they had recelved _ Ic would not: be burpriging_ therefore _ if many former employeee Ignorea the letter for gimllar reabon8 even though they might have legitimate needg to protect thelr identitieg_ 4 (U) ContactIng every named employee and collecting information on each of them to pregent to the Review Board will Clearly take more time and effort than any Of 4B had anticlpated.

Our relationship with cover providers would be jeopardized if it becane publicly known that they were providing cover to CIA employees _ The Department of State could very well raise objections to our future use of State cover Of increasing importance to the Agency at this time is the critical use of private sector (nonofficial) cover providers _ The. private sector would no doubt drop contact and avoid future dealings with us if we reveal a covert relationship_ Identifying covert relationships with cover providers would paralyze Agency operations which in turn could severely damage national security. In addition, in the past it has exposed CIA to legal liabilities and substantial monetary damages -_ 6 Headquarters Regulation (HR) 240-1 is the Agency' s regulation on cover _ It states that "cover is required for all Agency operations, activities and installations abroad, including personnel in PCS or TDY status "i HR 240-2_ the Agency' s regulation on cover after separation, states that "the deternination that an employee will retain all or a_ part of his or her cover after separation from the Agency will be based upon the judgment that separation in an overt status could result in damage to the national security by compromising intelligence sources_ methods activities_ andlor information, or cause harm to foreign relations This deternination will be made on a case- by-case basis Ii Please note that all Agency employees who retire abroad must retire under cover 7 Release of names of former employees who separated under cover will make the entire Agency cover progran vulnerable and detract from our continuing efforts to enhance cover and conduct sometimes dangerous activities necessary to carry out the Agency' s mission We can accept the purpose of the JFK Assassination Records Review Act to declassify docuents for public consumption; however_ we submit that the release of true names of former Agency employees adds no value to the documents in addition to risking physical harm to these individuals from our public detractors We propose and emphatically encourage that pseudonyms_ aliases or generic job descriptions such as desk officer be used in place of true names which would not diminish the impact of the docunents . 3 SECRET ================================================== Page 53 ================================================== 13-00000 SECRET SUBJECT : Memo to JFK Assassination Records Review Board 8 After your review and consideration of the above information, we would appreciate notification of your final decision prior to taking any action_ &uhluathuhul Eric L Qualkenbush Attachments: As stated above CONCUR : Christine W: DEC 0 & 1995 Associate Deputy Director for Date Operations Human Resources and Programs David N. 6 Associate Deputy Director for Date ~ES A-87935 Operations SECRET Wiley Ec> ` ================================================== Page 54 ================================================== 13-00000 SECRET SUBJECT : Memo to JFK Assassination Records Review Board pC /OCC/OS/EMathias: lae/ 37076 4J(6 Dec 95) Distribution: Orig 6 1 JFK Assassination Records Review Board IMS HRS 1 ADDO 1 ADDO/ HRP DDO Secretariat 2 DO/ IRO OGC / LD Linda Cipriani i OCC Chron OCC/osG Chron 1 occ/OSG File 785-120-034 5 SECRET ================================================== Page 55 ================================================== 13-00000 DEC 11 '95 11,14AM P.1 oWD @ FAX LtOTa To} Mr: Buny Hancleod Bar# (703) 351-2114 Suhfectt Dazmt-nccdns Date; Dcember [L, 4935 Peorut 3, bneludlbs tls cover ebect COMMMNTS:: TetyPes othbormaton that the Bxard nccdo @know @bouterch of thebucnomton beattached Ilt for wtlh CLA teeks contnued Protectlon ane Iloted belw: 1 @s the Indtvdual -aurentar fomerCLA cmpluyee?

JFK Assassination Records Review Board the second careers of former employees ; the cover and . identity of other employees who worked with the covert employee whose name is released as CIA; and, the protection of sources and methods (what individual would agree to a clandestine relationship with American intelligence knowing the secret association would become public knowledge?) 4 _ Examples of how identifying covert employees as CIA will_ affect individuals follows: Mr_ Walter McCabe retired under Department of State cover and is currently working in Russia and several Eastern European countries for a private firm which converts "wartime" factories into peacetime use Revealing his name would damage his relationship with his current employer, his position with the firm and would be awkward at best regarding the host countries_ Attachment B is Mr . McCabe' s acknowledgement that he was aware he would be denied as a CIA employee and Attachment C is his signed secrecy agreement _ Attachment D is a signed ackowledgement from Mr John Whitten who retired under cover in 1970 which shows that he was aware that he would be denied as an employee of the Central Intelligence Agency from the date he entered on duty through the date of his departure- Attachment E is a personal letter received from Mr _ Whitten after he was notified that his name might be released in connection with declassification of CIA documents _ Attachment F is Mr Whitten' s signed secrecy agreement _ It should be noted that Mr Whitten resides in Austria Attachment G is a Sumary of Agency Employent (SAE) written by Mr Morton M. Palmer and approved the Agency Attachment H is a certification by Mr Palmer that he will abide by what is contained in his SAE and understands disclosure of other information would be in violation of his secrecy 2 SECRET by ================================================== Page 61 ================================================== 13-00000 SECRET SUBJECT : Memo to JFK Assassination Records Review Board agreement _ Attachment I is Mr Palmer' s signed secrecy agreement _ It should be noted that Mr _ Palmer resides in Mexico _ 5 _ Our relationship with cover providers would be jeopardized if it became publicly known that they were providing cover to CIA employees _ The Department of State could very well raise objections to Our future use of state cover- Of increasing importance to the Agency at this time is the critical use of private sector (nonofficial) cover providers _ The private sector would no doubt drop contact and avoid future dealings with uS if we reveal a covert relationship_ Identifying covert relationships with cover providers would paralyze Agency operations which in turn could severely damage national security. In addition, in the past it has exposed CIA to legal liabilities and substantial monetary damages - 6 Headquarters Regulation (HR) 240-1 is the Agency' s regulation on cover It states that "cover is required for all Agency operations , activities and installations abroad, including personnel in PCS or TDY status HR 240-2 = the Agency' s regulation on cover after separation, states that the determination that an employee will retain all or a part of his or her cover after separation from the Agency will be based upon the judgment that separation in an overt status could result in damage to the national security by compromising intelligence sources methods_ 1 activities_ and/or information, or cause harm to foreign relations _ This determination will be made on a case- by-case basis Please note that all Agency employees who retire abroad must retire under cover 7 Release of names of former employees who separated under cover will make the entire Agency cover program vulnerable and detract from our continuing efforts to enhance cover and conduct sometimes dangerous activities necessary to carry out the Agency' s mission_ We can accept the purpose of the JFK Assassination Records Review Act to declassify documents for public consumption; however, we submit that the release of true names of former. Agency employees adds no value to the documents in addition to risking physical harm to these individuals from our public detractors We propose and emphatically encourage that pseudonyms aliases or generic job descriptions such as desk officer be used in place of true nanes which would not dininish the impact of the documents . 3 SECRET ================================================== Page 62 ================================================== 13-00000 SECRET SUBJECT : Memo to JFK Assassination Records Review Board 8,_ After your review and consideration of the above information, we would appreciate notification 0f your final decision prior to taking any action- Tuhlhuathubuk Eric L_ Qualkenbush Attachments : As stated' above CONCUR : Associate Deputy Direktor for Date Operations/Human Resoyrces and Programs (zaw~ f .
