Mr. John Greenewald, Jr.

Reference: F-2000-02110

Dear Mr. Greenewald:

This letter concludes our processing of your 4 October 2000 Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request for all records pertaining to the incident in the morning of 25 January 1995, in which a Russian radar crew spotted a fast moving object they identified as an incoming Trident missile, later identified as a Norwegian atmospheric observation missile. Your request was processed in accordance with the FOIA, 5 U.S.C. § 552, as amended, and the CIA Information Act, 50 U.S.C. § 431. Our processing was in keeping with our 1 November letter and consisted of a search of all Agency records subject to the FOIA and likely to contain material relevant to your request.

We located the enclosed document, bearing our processing number 514731, which we determined can be released in its entirety. We also located material not originated by the CIA which appears relevant to your request. We referred that material to its originating agency for review and direct response to you.

Thank you for your patience while we processed your request.

Sincerely,

Kathryn I. Dyer
Information and Privacy Coordinator
