requested CIA's comments by COB 21 January 1983. Your cooperation in meeting
this deadline by getting your comments to CRD by COB 20 January 1983 will be
appreciated. (C)
`? In addition to the draft guideline "General Guidelines for Systematic
Declassification Review of Foreign. Government Information" and the covering
letter from Steven Garfinkel, Director of IS00, we are attaching the following
for your use and convenience: (U)
a. A copy of "Guidelines for Systematic Review of Foreign

CRD has reviewed the draft and recomme,ids the following additions/
changes : (U)
a. Add to paragraph 2002.4(e): Information that results
when U.S. departments, agencies, and military commands conduct,
supervise or coordinate intelligence liaison with foreign
intelligence and security services and. international organizations
ata.y be declassified only In accordance with the mutual desires of

b. Retain paragraph D5 from the previous guidelines and add
it to paragraph 2002.4 of the current guideline draft. Deletion
of this paragraph weakens the position that each agency ultimately
must be responsible for the declassification of its own information.
c. Add to paragraph 2002.6(e)(3): (For detailed guidance on
protecting U.S. foreign intelligence liaison relationships see
Director of Central Intelligence Directive "Security Classification
Guidance on Liaison Relationships with Foreign Intelligence
Orgmitations and Foreign Security Services," effective as of
18 January 1982.)
d. Adel to paragraph 2002.6(f): (3) information identifying
tiny individual. or organization used to develop or support intelligence
or counterintelligence sources or activities.
e. Retain paragraph G2 from the previous guideline and add it
to paragraph 2002.7 of the current guideline draft. This states the
Basic premise for any declassification program.
