Authority for maintenance of the system:
44 U.S.C. 2107.9 and 2107.7 (i) and (j)
Purpose(s):
The JFK Act requires that each assassination record be
accompanied by an electronic identification aid. The National
Archives designed the form for these record identification forms, and
the Review Board uses these forms regularly in keeping track of
assassination records that have been, are being, or need to be
processed. The forms have two sections that often contain the names
of individuals--the ``to/from'' section that identifies the author
and the addressee of the assassination record and the ``subjects''
section that identifies the subject matter of the document.
Generally, the name is the only personal information that appears on
the form, so the effects on the privacy of individuals is minimal.
The JFK Act, 44 U.S.C. 2107.9 and 2107.7 (i) and (j), provides
authority for maintenance of this system. The documents in this
system are generated, in large part, by other Federal agencies and
each document in the system refers to a record that originated in
another Federal agency.
