4. Classifi.ea.t'Q ecommendatio . If the security classifications c:ontained in this guide areimpractical or if current conditions indicate a need for a change(s), then document and justifY

your recornmel'ldation(s) through appropriate channels to the OPl\. Until a final decision isrendered regarding your suggested cbange(s). handle and protect the item(s) involved at the

higher of the two classification levels (i.e., the level issued by this SCG or your s u g g e s t ~ change). All u s ~ of this guide are encouraged to improve and maintain its currency andadequacy. Arly over classification or incorrect classification shall be brought to the attention of

theOPR.

5. For Official Use Only CFOlJQ) Caveat.

a. FOUO is not a sec\lrity classification. Information that has not given a security

classi.fication pursuant to the criteria in this guide--but which may be withheld from the publicfor one or more of the reasons cited in DoDO 5400.7·R.DoD Freedom o fInformation Ac t

(FOIA) Program, September 1998, Chapter 3. E:temp.tion.s--shall be designa cd FOUO.

Information so de$ignated in this guide that warrants FOUO markings shall be handJed andprotected in accordance with DoDD 5400.7·R. Documents that are produced wh ich containPO'PAS infonnation that is designated FOUO shall be m2rked "FOR OFF1ClAL CSE. ONLY'' in



letters larger than the rest oftb.e text, where practical, at the rop and the bottom oftlle frontcover, the title page, all pages within the document, and the outside of the back cover. ThefoUowing statement shall also appear on the ftont cover or the title page of the document withthe appropriate exemption(s) £dentified: ·

''1'his document contains bformation EXEMPT FROM MANDATORY D SCLOSUREunder the FOrA. Exemption(s) 2 and 4 apply.

b. FOIA Exemptions applicable to POPAS information:

(I ) FOJA Exemption Number 2. T'nis exemption applies solely to the internal pe!'SOnnel

rules and practices of the DoD or any ofi13 Components. Exemption high (b) (2) includesrecords containing or constituting statutes, rules, regulations. orders, manuals, directives,instructions, and security classification guides,. if released would aUow circumvention of therecords thereby substantially hindering the effective perfOrmance of the DoD or its a g ~ c i e s . This includes computer software, the release of which would allow eircumventio:t of a statute orDoD rules, regulations, orders, manuals, directives, or instructions.

(2) FOIA Exemption. Number 4. This exemption pertains to trade secrets, or comm • ·ator financial information, that LDoD Component receives from a person or r g ' " c J ~ . i u t i o n ou1sidethe go"emment. The release of this infonnation to the general public would likely causesubstantial bann to the compe:itive position of the source. impair the govemmenfsability toobtain necessary information in the future, or impair some other legitimate govenu: ent interest.Some examples are: commercial or financial information recdved in confidence in connectionwith bids, contracts, or proposals; statistical data and corumerc'al or financial informationconcerning cantrac:t performuce, income, etc.; personal statements given in the course of

inspections, investigations, or ~ u d i t s ; financial data provided in confidence by private employersin connection with locality wage surveys; scientific and manufacturing processes o:r

developments conceming program or scientific data. or other infonnationsubmitted with anapplication for a grant or ...vith a report white research is in progress; technical or scientific datadeveloped by a contractor Of subcontractor exclusively at private expense; technical or scientificdata developed in part with federal funds and in part at private expense; computer softwarewhich is copyrighted; or proprietary information submitted strictly on a voluntary basis.

6. Reproduction. Extraction. and Dissemination. Authority is granted to POPAS acquirers,operators, maintainers, logisticians, and eontracto:n to make reproductions or extract selectedportions of this guide for their use in worlcir.g with this system.

7. Public Release. ASI.y publ' c release of infonnation regarding thePOPAS requires :iorwritten approval from the SCAt Program M8.1'1Ager (PM) or Assistant P r o g r Manager (APM).The SOAL PM or APM is respollSI'ble for ettsuring that approvals are in a<:oordance with DoDD5400.7, DoD Freedom ofInformation Ace P r o g r a m ~ 2 January 2008 and DoDD 5230.25,Withholding ofUnclassified Technical Data from Public Disclosure, 6 November 1982

(Incorporating Change l, 18 August 1995). Prior unofficial publication ofinfo-:marion does not

constitute authority for official release. Requests for public: release shall be subm 'ttcd in the

form of one paper copy and one electronic copy to the Psychological O;Jerations ProgramManager forty-five working days prior to the requested release date.

8. Classification Currency. Corrected pages shall be distributed wher. major re.,isions to this

classification guide occur. Tl-e superseded pages shall be destroyed. Minor changes shall bemade by letter, a copy of this letter shall be filed in the front of this guide.

9. Foreign Pisdosyre. The term ••foreign disclosure" descn"bes the act ofdisclosing United

States (U.S.) Classified Military lnforrnation (CMI) to a r ~ r e s e n t a t i v e of a foreign government

orofan international o r g a n i z ~ t i o n in accordance with the provisions of theNational DisclosurePolicy-I (NDP·l ), I ~ o b e r 1998. The tenn "tbreign disclosure" does not 2l'ply when theinfonnation is unclassified. However, during the life eycle of the POP AS, it may becomenecessary to provide Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI) or proprietary ·nronnation to a

representative of a foreign government orof an international organization, or to facilitate an

export to a representative of a foreign, non..

govern:ment organization (e.g., a foreigncorporation.). T h e r e f o r ~ those actions involving CUI which go beyond the nanow definition of

a foreign disclosure, but whic!l are closely related, will also be addressed in the following

paragraphs.

a. Foreign Disclosure of CONFIDENTIAL, SECRET , or TOP SECRET CMI. Any U.S.Government representative disclosing POPAS CMI (oral, visual. or documentary) or transferringclassified POPAS material to a representat1ve of a foreign govcmment or of an internationalorganization muSt comply \\ith the following requirements:

(1) Contact a SOAL Foreign Disc1osure Officer (FDO) to obtain prior writt n a:pproval to

disclose or transfer the specific POPAS CMI.

(2) Ens11re that the representativeof the foreign goverrunent or of the internationalorganization is authorized by his or her government or international organization o receivePOP AS CMI. Consult with a SOAL FDO if assistance is needed to verify the authorityorthe

recipient

(3) Consult with a SOAL FDO to ensure adhermee to NDP-1 .

(4) Report oral or visual disclosures to the FDO, Center for Special OperationsInternational Program Office (SCSO-J33 -IF). For documentary or material disdosures, obtain ahand te¢eipt-suc:h as an AF 310, aNAVPERS S000/64, aDA 3964, aJSI4, ortquivalentdocumentation-and provide it to the SCS0-133-lP FOO. The S C S O - l 3 3 ~ 1 P FDO ~ h a l l berespons1hle for entering a reeo.rd ofthe disclosure into the DoD foreign Disdcsure database.

For the SCSO-J33-IP FDO tc make a valid entry in this database, the following information must

be included on the hand receipt:

• Name of the person transferring the document or material

3

I



• Name and nationality of the person receiving the document or material

• Name of the document or material

• Classification level of the document or materia]• Classification block as it appears on the document or material (i.e., the information

contained in the "Derived from" line and the "Declassify on" line)• Date ofthe t r a n s f ~ • Reason for the trat1sfer (e.g., an exercise or in at:eordanee with a Memorandum of

Undemanding)

b. Disclosure ofCUI. CUl is defined as unclassified informationor material to which.access o:;: distribution limitations have been applied a«<>rding to U.S. national laws, policies, andregulations. Because the provisions ofNDP-1 govern only CMI. the release of CUt to arepresentative ofa foreign govemment or ofan international organization is not considered aforeign disclOS\Il'ematter. However, any U.S. Goverr.rnent representative releasing POPAS CUlmust fU"St obtain permission fuml the SOAL PM or APM and adhere to 1he provisions ofDoDD5230.25. Withholding ofUnclassified Technical Data from Public Disclosure, 6 November 1984.

The SOAL PM orAPM wiH maintain a record of all released CUI.

<:. Disclosure of Proprietary Information. Any U.S. Government representative providingPOPAS proprietary information or material (classified or unclassified) to a representative ofaforeign government orof an i.-'ltemational organizationmust first obtain written permission fromthe owner ofthe information or material ar.d the approval of the SOAL PM or APM.

d. Export. The disclosure ofCMT or CUI, or the transfer ofmaterial to an individualrepresenting a foreign, non-government organization. is considered an export. An export isgoverned by the provisions o: the DoDD 5 2 2 0 . 2 2 ~ M , National IndustrialS-ecuriJ:)I Pt-ogrQ'Itt

Operating Manual, '28 February 2006; JnrematioMl T;af!ic irt Anns JUgulaticn [Title 22,

Revised as of I AJ)fil 1992]; or Expon Adminlsrr.atitm Regulation {Last updated: 2!) April 2008].Should the requirement for an export arise, cons"Ult a SOAL FDO for the best strategy to

facilitate it.

10. Distribution Statemerus.

a. DoDD 5230.24,Distr.'bution Statements on Technical DoC'I.lments, 18 March 1987,requires that distribution statementS be applied to both classified and unclassified technicaldocumeots. Technical documents contain information ( ~ p e r i m e n t a . I . developme.11tal, ortechnica works) that can be used to define an engineeringor manufacturing procesi or to design.proC\lre, produce. support, maintain, operate, repair) or overhaul materiel. The information may

be in text, graphic, or pictorit-1 fonn. All POPAS technical documents s!'la!l have the followingdistribution statement on the front cover, i f possible, or on the first page..

..DISTRIBUTION D: Distribution authorized to the Department ofDefense (DoD) and UnitedStales (U.S.) DoD contractors for a d m i n i s t r a t i v ~ developmental, or operational use of POPAS,

b. W'hen possible, the section{s) of the document that contain{s) information that creates therequirement for the distribution swement, or other warning notl.ce, shall be p cued as anappendix. to permit broader distribution of the basic document.

11. Classification Statement.

a. E.O. 12958, Classified National &curity JnjoTI'Nllion. 17 April 1995 [as amended by

E.O. 13292, 28 March 2003] Section 2.1 requires that classification statements be applied to all

classified documents. The ch811s in Section 4 through Section 12 of this guide provide theoriginal classification decisions for topics associated with the POPAS, TI:erefore, all doounentswhich contain these topics shall be classified as derivative documents. The fo llowing derivativeclassification statement shall be applied to the bottom of the front cover, if possible, or the titlepage:

DERIVED FROM: Psychological Operations Planning and Analysis System SeClltityClasl>ification Guide, 24 Febr.Jary 2009 .

.OECLASSIFY ON: (See paragraph JJ.b . in this documbtt for an explanation ofht>w todetermine lNz co,.rect date to insert here.)

b. To determine the "DECLASSIFY 01\1'" date, whieh is to be inserted into the paragraphabove, refer to the charts in Section 4 through Section 12 of this guide and take the fo !lowingactions:

(I) Consider all the classified topics fr m the charts in Section 4 through Section 12

that are contained in the derivative document, and then narrow the focus to those topics havingthe highest classification leveh. Usc the information in th.e ..Remarks/Reason" column as an aid.

Reasons for classification are isted and explained in E..O. l2958, as amended, Section 1.4.a.through Section l.4.h. The reasons from this source that are e.pplieabJe to the POP AS are asfollows:

• 1.4.a. Military plans, weapons systems, or operations• 1.4_c. Intelligence activities {including special actfvities)j intelligence sources or methods,

or ccyptology

• 1.4.e. Scientific, techr.olog:ical, or economic matters relating to the national security,which includes defense againsl transnational terrorism

• 1.4-g. Vulnerabilities or capabilities of systems, installations, infrastructures, projects,

plans. or protection services relating to the national security, which includes defense .

against transnational terrorism

5



(2) From the topics with the highest classification levels, find the most restrictive

declassification instruction-that is, the one that wilt retain the classification for the longest

period oftime. Add that periodof

time to the dateof

the derivative document {do not use thedate of this guide) to arrive at the date to insert into the derivation classification statement.

12. Compilation oflnfonnation. Caution must be exercised when compiling unclassifiedinfonnation in a single document. A compilatiou of seemingly unrelated, unclassified topicsmay reveal enough information to warrant classification (e.g., a system wlnerability). Whendeveloping and reviewing deivative dceuments., all POPAS personnel must consider whatinformation is revealed through compilation and whether or not it is classi tied.
