2. At the recommendation of the Department of Energy,
the representatives of the working group will meet with
the FBI in an attempt to determine the impact of new FBI
name check policies which would limit name checks to a
check of FBI main files only; a check of FBI main files
and reference files for sensitive checks only; and would
eliminate all. checks of FBI criminal records on routine
name checks where fingerprint cards are not submitted. (See
previous correspondence relating to the attendance by the

this problem was originally surfaced'about six months ago -
at that time the FBI agreed to continue to give the Agency
complete checks, including criminal checks on all of our
requests.) DOE and the FBI representative will submit a

3. At the request of the working group, the undersigned

4. No additonal pertinent developments were reported
concerning the plans to conduct the recommended investigations
survey. As of this date, the requested 120,000 ADP cards
