. MEMORANDUM FOR: Deputy Director of Security (IOS)
SUBJECT : FPM Letter No. 736
Full Field Investigations on
Competitive Service Employees
and Applicants for Critical -
Sensitive Positions)
1. Reference Letter established minimum standards
covering the scope and coverage of full field investigations
for critical - sensitive positions, such standards to be binding
on all agencies which make competitive appointments and
which conduct full field investigations in connection therewith.
2. Attached is a copy of a memorandum dated
25 October 1968, in which ID commented on FPM Letter
No. 736 in relation to our own investigative policies and
procedures. It is my opinion that we operate under the
same general guidelines as set forth in FPM Letter No. 736.
Our coverage in many cases will be more comprehensive
in scope, but will not go beyond the limits established by
FPM Letter No. 736, which permits expanded coverage
where circumstances so warrant. It is therefore felt that
there is no.necessity for issuing any new regulations or
directives with respect to employment-type investigations.
However, in order that we might be completely above
criticism, it might be a good idea to incorporate FPM Letter
No. 736 into the Agents Manual together with an explanation
that while this agency does not technically come under the

provisions of the FPM Letter, the agencies whose covers we
use do, and therefore we should be guided by these provisions
and should make certain that our investigations are not in
violation thereof.
3. If it is felt that we might be required to make our
Agents Manual available for review by the Civil Service
Commission, then serious consideration should be given to
the preparation of a separate manual dealing only with
applicant-type investigations
