                 SUBJECT:           JFK Board's Second Letter to the DCI


                 This note is corrected per comments by Barry Harrelson.  Corrections are in first paragraph:

                 FYI, The JFK Assassination Records Review Board sent its second letter to the DCI on 31 July 1995. This letter notifies the DCI that it
                 has decided to release in full CIA documents considered during its July hearings. Two of these documents contain the.crypt LIENVOY.
                 This was the crypt for the         l     eletap operation in Mexico City in 1963. This teltap picked up the Lee Harvey Oswald
                 telephone calls.

                 As with the previous letter, the Center for the Study of Intelligence has the action to get recommendations to the DCI on whether to
                 appeal to the President. I understand that John Pereira will discuss this with Fred Wickham (the DO focal point for these issues) whether
                 to pursue an appeal. I do not know what the 000's recommendation will be.

                 Durina the hearia with the Board on 2 August 1995, we stressed the necessity to keep secret the fact the teltap operation was=
                                              The DO sought to explain the mosaic problem to the Board on the release of LIENVOY. The Board's
                 posiiion appears to be that release of the crypt when it will not compromise the fact that the teltap wasf   hould  be
                 permitted under the Act. The Board probably will require us to justify on a document-by-document basis the redaction of LIENVOY, and
                 will not agree to redact every mention of the crypt. We should know by the end of the week what position the Board will take on the CIA
                 documents mentioning LIENVOY or talking about the operation. The DO officers at the hearing tried to get the Board to reconsider its
                 determination to release the crypt in the two documents. However, the Staff of the Board does not believe the Board can or is inclined to
                 reconsider.
