CENTRAL INTELLIGENCE AGENCY WASHINGTON, D.C. 20505 APPROVED FOR RELEASE[] DATE: 10-25-2011 Dr. Michael J. Kurtz Assistant Archives for Record Services - Washington, D.C. National Archives and Records Administration 8601 Adelphia Road College Park, Maryland 20740-6001 Enclosed you will find a set of classified records control schedules that have been forwarded by the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) for approval by the National Archives and Records Administration (NARA). Besides being classified, these record schedules, unlike our past submissions, represent a comprehensive revision of all of our records control schedules. Accordingly, we believe that the publication of a detailed notice of CIA's records control schedules in the Federal Register, or the provision of copies of any actual records control schedule items to any requester, would be inappropriate. We have looked at this issue and we believe that the publication of a detailed notice.in.the Federal Register.or the provision of any of CIA's new records control schedule items to requesters would violate the prohibition, contained in section 6 ofthe..CIA Act of. 1949, as amended, ag ins_t_publishing CIA organizational or functional information. However, we believe... that both the CIA Act and 44 U.S.C. 3303a can be given legal effect by the publication of a notice that contains a mutually agreed upon generic description of CIA's new records control schedules. The Agency would like to work with the NARA personnel that you designate to create such a mutually satisfactory description. pz? Michael J. Kurtz or f my staff on ` ruc Associate Deputy General Counsel for information
