The-following comments are offered relative to the
subject matter:
A. 5.6 Security Indoctrination -- Maintenance
of NDAs for',a period of 70 years after access termin-
ation seems excessive and unnecessary. Recommend
review of that requirement with a view to reducing
the period to something closer to 15 years. Con-
sideration should be given to the aspect of physical
storage of these NDAs.
B. 5.6,a "All indoctrinations shall be
accomplished by the NSO, PM, NISSO or HISSO." This
is a rather severe limitation on those authorized to
indoctrinate. Suggest adding "or officially appointed
alternate representatives of these officers."
C. 5.6,b(l) Notification to the NSO for a
simple "change of address" seems unnecessary.
Recommend deletion of that requirement.
D. 5.6,b(2) Reporting "unauthorized contact
with a citizen of a foreign country" is impractical
and unnecessary. Suggest changing wording to read
unofficial contact with any citizen of a hostile
nation (Soviet, Bloc Countries, PRC, etc...nations
designated. in DCID 1/20) and continuing unofficial
contact with citizens of any foreign country.
E. 5.6,b(4) Recommend change of wording to
"Upon change of marital status. Basic biographic
data for an intended spouse should be provided."

F. 5.7,d Periodic reinvestigation -- Recommend
adding following language "The requirement for rein-
vestigation on a five year recurring basis may be
extended to a longer period or waived on authority
of heads of NFIB Agencies (or their designates)
and on authority of the DCI (or his designate) for
non-NFIB Agencies."
G. 5.8,a Recommend addition of following... The
NSO will be responsible for notification to NFIB
Agencies when an individual is terminated for cause
from CHOSUN access.
H. 6.2,b Recommend adding in line 5 -- Group I
lock mounted on hardplate; acoustic seal etc... In
latter part of this paragraph... I believe we can
live with the requirement to forward a record of the
lock combination(s) to the NSO for storage, but we
must maintain a local record of the combination in
this Agency as well. This is contradictory to the
last sentence in the paragraph.
I. 6.3.1,b It is my contention that a vibration
detection system is unnecessary, fallible and not
worth the cost of installation and maintenance. I
believe PSD and TSD will take a similar position.
J. 6.4.1 Access Roster -- Any roster containing
a listing of Agency personnel must be classified at
least confidential. Transmittal on a weekly basis
may be a less desirable administrative task than per-
haps monthly. The latter is recommended.
K. 7.1.3 Para 4 This is a garble "Multiple
Sources" belongs on the "Derived From" line rather
than the "Classified By" line.
L. 7.2.3 Portion Marking -- In this Agency,
it is our practice to mark each portion of a document
with the abbreviation for the classification at the
end of each portion. Can we continue that practice
in documents relative to CHOSUN?
The last sentence of this paragraph is not
applicable to the Agency. The abbreviation "CNWDI" is
not used by CIA. In our case SIGMA is substituted
for CNWDI. This is not an arbitrary action by CIA,
but a differentiation established by DOE.

M. 6.3.2c Response time not to exceed five
minutes is reasonable for a limited number of
facilities in NFIB Agencies. Such a short response
time may be unrealistic if applied to a wide number
and variety of nodes. (U)
