89 Days Left Until the Effective Date
of the Executive Order
Activities and Accomplishments
Six-month Program Extension!
Through the stroke of a pen, ISOO/OMB has adjusted the end-date of the automatic declassification period. General interpretation of the
Executive Order (EO) put the end-date of the 5-year declassification period as 5 years from the April 1995 signing date of the EO or April 2000. The
recent draft ISOO/OMB implementation directive fine print states the end-date (when all unreviewed documents become automatically
declassified) is October 2000 (5 years after the October 1995 effective date of the EO). The EO was ambiguous on this point, and even ISO� in
earlier drafts opted for the April date. No doubt the magnitude of the task facing all agencies is setting in. Needless to say, we will not contest this
change. (AIU0)
Deliverables under Review
RDP has begun an intensive review
of the following project deliverables, the
Functional Requirements Document (FRD),
which addresses functional requirements
for the Agency Redaction Factory; and the
Declassification Guide, which will set the
redaction standards for the program. Also
under review are the AARC Survey Report,
which describes the results of our 1200 box
survey of Agency holdings under the
purview of the Executive Order; the RDP
Project Management Plan; and the RDP
Exemption Strategy and Plan which will

guide our development of justifications for
exempting whole file series from automatic
declassification. Project personnel are
spending a large part of their mornings and
afternoons in line-by-line review of the first
two critical documents in particular.

New Office Space
We received notification from Chief, Facilities Consolidation and Planning Staff that we must vacate no later than 15
September 1995 since the building is being turned over to GSA on 30 September 95 as part of the Facilities Consolidation Program. We are in the
process of responding to that memorandum with our requirements for space to support 40 people and associated office equipment. In parallel, we
have contacted Space Planning Branch (SPB) and will be looking at temporary space for FY96 which will be located on the 12th floor of Ames. We
have scheduled ourselves with the OL movers to move the night of 11 September. We will perform a site survey of the new temporary space being
offered by SPB on Tue 18 July. (AIU0)
