Dear Mr. Zuelch:
(b)(6)
This is a final response to your 4 January 2013 Freedom of Information Act
(FOIA) request, received in the office of the Information and Privacy Coordinator on
15 January 2013, for "information or records on CINCLANT OPLANS 312 and 316."
Please be advised that the records you seek have been reviewed and re-reviewed
under the less restrictive classification guidelines for assassination-related records of the
President John F. Kennedy Assassination Record Collection Act of 1992. The Agency
transferred these records to the National Archives and Records Administration (NARA)
in compliance with this Act.
In addition, these records, along with assassination-related records of other
government agencies, have been re-reviewed by the Presidentially-appointed
Assassination Records Review Board. The Board had the authority to make new
determinations regarding the release of information on this subject. Following review by
the Board, these records were returned to NARA to be made available to the public
through NARA's JFK Assassination Records Collection. Therefore, in an effort to assist
you in the most efficient way possible, unless you object and insist that we conduct a
search in our portion of the collection, it is recommended that you submit your request to
NARA at the following address to obtain the most complete set of the records you seek:
JFK Assassination Records Collection

records of relevant Congressional committees, related court cases, and records private
entities donated. The collection currently contains more than 2,000 cubic feet of records
or five million pages from more than 30 different U.S. Government offices. This
documentation is also searchable electronically through the NARA website on the
