Special Item of Interest Throughout the Agency, we have been making a concerted effort to close as many old cases as possible. Concentration has been on open cases received prior to 1980, of which there were 96 at the beginning of this year (67 FOIA, 28 PA, and 1 EO). Our one Executive Order Mandatory Review request has been closed out, along with 48 other requests. We now have only 47 open pre-1980 cases (37 FOIA and 10 PA), and several of these are close to completion. We have begun an in-depth review of the 33 open 1980 cases, and will continue this type of review on a year-by-year basis.

This project was decided upon as the most efficient way to handle these CIA publications which have become very popular with requestors. Since each edition of the publication contains a variety of articles on different subjects considerable coordination will be required. In some of the later editions we will probably be able to coordinate with the actual authors because many are still current Agency employees.

The attribute name for IPS-LOG is REOPEN/D and the attribute name for IPS-HIST is HREOPEN/D. These changes were made so that the count for reopened cases could be included with the count of open cases for the current week without having to keep a manual count of the reopened cases.
