handle is hein.jfk/jfkarch85979 and id is 1 raw text is: 2023 RELEASE UNDER THE PRESIDENT JOHN F. KENNEDY ASSASSINATION RECORDS ACT OF 1992 THE DIRECTOR OF VE& LLGENCE WASHINGTON, D.C. 20505 U 2 ; 16 September 1998 Mr. John R. Tunheim Chair, Assassination Records Review Board 600 E Street, NW Washington, DC 20530 Re: JFK Assassination Records Collection Act of 1992 Dear Mr. Tunheim: This will respond to your 14 September 1998 letter regarding Central Intelligence Agency compliance with the JFK Act.' I have no doubt whatsoever that the CIA has fully met its obligations to locate, review, and release assassination records as defined in the JFK Act. The Agency's 2 September 1998 Declaration of Compliance-signed, as you note, by CIA's Director of Information. Management, Edmund Cohen-confirms my judgment. I have full confidence in the scope of the Agency's searches as described in Mr. Cohen's recent declaration. As Director of Information Management, Mr. Cohen is directly responsible for CIA's records systems and for ensuring the adequacy of CIA's search, review, and release of documents under the JFK Act. Mr. Cohen signed the Agency's Declaration of Compliance because he was the most senior Agency official with direct personal knowledge that its statements were accurate and complete. There was no more appropriate signatory. In sum, I understand that the appropriate CIA staff cfficers have worked diligently to locate and disclose to the JFK Board all relevant records in the Agency's possession and that they do not believe any other relevant records are being withheld from the Board. Mr. Cohen's declaration confirms my understanding. I trust that this will meet your requirements. Sincerely, Geor e J. Tenet 1104-10332-100231
