  • Of Potential Interest as a Contact Source. On occasion, especially
  during stability and reconstruction operations, the HUMINT collector
  may identify an individual who has the potential to provide
  information in the future, due to his placement or access. Although the
  individual may not have information of immediate interest, the
  HUMINT collector will pass his recommendation to the appropriate
  office, normally the C/J/G/S2X, provided that source operations are
  authorized (see Chapter 5).
  • Of No Interest. This category includes sources who prove (based upon
  the screening process) to be of no interest to the HUMINT collector or
  other agencies. Their biographic data is recorded, but they are not
  questioned further. This category will likely include the bulk of
  individuals screened. Individuals who have been screened are kept
  separated from those who have not yet been screened.
  OTHER TYPES OF SCREENING OPERATIONS
  LOCAL EMPLOYEE SCREENING
  6-37. CI personnel conduct local employee screening, primarily to identify
  individuals who may be a security risk. HUMINT collectors also can use local
  employee screening as a means to obtain intelligence information or to
  identify personnel with placement and access to answer information
  requirements. Employee screening must be conducted in a secure
  environment and out of the hearing and sight of other employees. Formal
  written reports of the screening must be maintained.
  LOCAL COMMUNITY OR AREA SCREENING
  6-38. Local area screening is normally done in coordination with other
  operations such as a cordon and search operation. The HUMINT collectors
  accompany the forces conducting the operation and screen the general
  population to identify individuals of intelligence or CI interest.
  SCREENING FOR CI REQUIREMENTS
  6-39. Before initiating the screening process, the HUMINT collector
  establishes liaison with supporting CI agents. The CI element provides CI
  requirements and provides a profile of personnel of CI interest. CI is
  normally interested in personnel who––
  • Have no identification documents.
  • Have excessive or modified identification documents.
  • Possess unexplainable large amounts of cash or valuables.
  • Are illegal border-crossers.
  • Attempt to avoid checkpoints.
  • Are on the CI personalities list, which includes members of an
  intelligence service.
  • Request to see CI personnel.
  • Have family in the denied area.
  • Speak a different language or dialect than is spoken in the area.
