Re: Draft MOA with Army
SG11
1. MOA looks fine. However, you may want to consider adding a paragraph about who will
handle public affairs releases, i.e. the following:
(new 4. [renumber rest]) Public Affairs Guidance:
In the event a media, Freedom of Information Act (FOIA), or other
inquiry is made, an incident occurs that threatens the activity or
true identities of personnel and/or Central Intelligence Agency
involvement, responses to media and FOIA inquiries will be referred
to the designated [DoD? or CIA?] Public Affairs Officer. When any
such media inquiry is received or anticipated, the Army and Central
Intelligence Agency will confer to determine the facts and
circumstances of the situation and, in coordination, determine what,
if any, measures may be appropriate. Pursuant to the statutory and
executive order responsibilities of the Director of Central
Intelligence to protect intelligence sources and methods from
unauthorized disclosure, the Central Intelligence Agency will make
any final determinations regarding the disclosure of classified
information concerning intelligence sources and methods.
2. Or something to that effect so everyone's responses are consistent.
Thanks again for the tour.
