SUBJECT:          IMMEDIATE - Questions re JFK Assassination Search
CIC has received the tasking memo from Lee Strickland to conduct the new search on information relating to the JFK Assassination. I
see that LA and CE divisions have received it as well. Before the CIC Focal Point raices Rockwell CICIEXO) gets started on the search
for us on Monday (I'll be on All), I have some questions:
1. Will we be receiving any additional guidance from the DO (either the DDO or IMS or someone else)?
2. Will we be required to submit a search strategy and a written final response? (As instructed in .the memo entitled
Document Search Procedure issued by the DDO in Feb 1997, #DDO 97-0420.)
3. I note that the tasking memo says if any information is found it should be brought immediately to the attention of the
Historical Review Program, DIM Barry Harrelson. - I'm not comfortable with doing that (see item B below) and think our findings, if
any, should go through someone in the 00 first. (No offense Barry; it's just that we might find something that's sensitivelcompartmented.)
According to the memo above- - which I think was very helpful when we were going through a number of searches early last year- -
certain things are called for. For example, it states:
A. The DD0  will a. Appoint a DO focal point officer to manage each search activity and provide policy guidance. b. The
DO focal point officer will be responsible for obtaining the external request in writing and for working with the requester to determine the
level of search expected and the desired end product. e. The component focal point officers will coord their search plans with the DO
focal point to ensure there is consistency with...... the searches done by other components. Communication and coordination between the
DO focal point and the component shall continue during the course of the search to eliminate duplication of effort and to ensure that no
relevant holdings are overlooked.
B. Upon completion of the search, the component's final written response to the DO focal point should detail the search
methodology, describe the review process, list the material provided and note any caveats for the provision of the documents to the
requester.
