MEMORANDUM FOR:
CIA Records Management Board
SUBJECT : Records Purge - Office of Inspector General
REFERENCE : Guidance Sheet for Progress Report, 25 Nov 68
O/IG - Inspection Staff .
A. During the last quarter of 1968 this office completed a
purge of file boxes of employee grievance cases retrieved from the
Records Center.
B. Purge results:
1. Employee grievance cases from 1953 through
1960 were purged.
2. Two cubic feet were destroyed.
3. Consideration was given to modifying the present
retirement schedule for the Inspection Staff, but after the
purge it was determined not to be appropriate at this time.
As the 1958, 1959 and 1960 cases were reviewed it was found
that very little could be destroyed and thus the manhours
spent were excessive for the end result.
4. None
5. None
6. None
7. Decrease of two (2) cubic feet
C. This office will continue to follow our present retirement
schedule, and as cases have been in Records Center for ten years,
they will be reviewed for possible reduction by destruction.
E. None
