          Re:   Status of CIA Responses to Assassination Records Review Board's Requests for
                Additional Information and Records

          Dear Barry:

          I am writing to update you on the Review Board's understanding of'the status of CIA's
          responses to ouir formal and informal requests for additional inforndtion and records
          that the ARRB Staff has requested pursuant to Section 7(j)(1)(C)(ii) of the President John
          F. Kennedy Assassination Records Collection Act of 1992,44 U.S.C. § 2107 (Supp. V
          1904) (FK Act).

          We  appreciate recent CIA efforts to respond to our outstanding requests.. As we have
          noted in earlier letters, these requests will be incorporated into the Agency's final
          compliance declaration. As you know, in requesting these materials, we are not
          designating them assassination records at this time and we are not requesting that
          CIA  provide copies to the Review Board. As we have noted, all outstanding ARRB
          requests for additional information, both formal and informal, were scheduled to be
          completed by April 1,1998. Although the April 1 deadline has passed, the Review
          Board still intends to complete all necessary work on the outstanding requests as soon
          as possible. The Review Board is currently in the process of drafting its final report to
          the President and to Congress and it considers the issue of CIA requests for additional
          information and records a crucial one. At a meeting with the Review Board staff on
          July 16,1998, the CIA made a commitment to complete all but three of the outstanding
          requests, formal and informal, by August 1, 1998. Due to Review Board staff
          commitments,  we are willing to extend that deadline to no later than Friday August 7,
          1998.

          BOARD MEMBERS: John R. Tunheim, Chair * Henry F. Graff * Kermit L. Hall * William L. Joyce * Anna K. Nelson
