[10]RECORD SERIES : STAFF PAYROLL RECORDS
[11]AGENCY FILE NUMBER :
[13]December 8, 1995
[14]Status of Document: Postponed in Part
[16]Number of releases of previously postponed information: 9
[18]Reason for Board Action: The Review Board's decision was premised on several factors
[19]including: (a) the significant historical interest in the document in question; (b) the
[20]absence of evidence that the release of the information would cause harm to the United
[21]States or to any individual.
[23]Number of Postponements: 3
[25]Postponements: All the postponements in this document represent Social Security numbers.
[27]Reason for Board Action: The text is redacted because the public disclosure of the redaction could
[28]reasonably be expected to constitute an unwarranted invasion of personal privacy, and that invasion of
[29]privacy would be so substantial that it outweighs the public interest.
