By "personnel," I mean any person affiliated with the University of Arizona, the University of Alaska, or the University of Arkansas, including faculty, teaching assistants,, research assistants, administrative officials, undergraduate, graduate or non-credit students, and academic or non-academic staff. "Relationships" includes any activity relating to recruitment, research, collection or dissemination or information, consulting work or carrying out of intelligence operations, as well as activity described by the April 1976 Report of the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence Activities (p. 191, Book 1) as "...Making introductions for intelligence purposes, intelligence collection while abroad, academic research, and writing where CIA sponsorship is hidden." Approved For Release 2004/07/08 : CIA-RDP81 M00980R001100040015-0 THIS STATIONERY PRINTED ON PAPER MADE WITH RECYCLED FIBERS Approved For Release 2004/07/08 : CIA-RDP81 M00980R001100040015-0 As you know, the amended Act provides that if some parts of a file are exempt from release that "reasonably segregable" portions shall be provided. I therefore request that, if you determine that some portions of the requested files or documents are exempt, you provide me immediately with a copy of the remainder of the.file or document. I, of course, reserve my right to appeal any such decisions. If you determine that some or all of the requested information is exempt from release, I would appreciate your advising me as to which exemptions you believe covers the information which you are not releasing. I am prepared to pay costs specified in your regulation for locating the requested files and reproducing them. However, if you estimate the cost will exceed $10, please notify me. As you know, the amended Act permits you to reduce or waive the fees if that "is in the public interest because furnishing the information can be considered as primarily benefitting the public." I believe that this request plainly fits that category and ask you to waive any fees. if you have any question regarding this request, please telephone Sylvia Spencer, a member of my staff who is handling this for me, at 225-9790. As provided for in the amended Act, I will expect to receive a reply within ten working days. Approved For Release 2004/07/08 : CIA-RDP81 M00980R001100040015-0
