  On cross motions for summary judgment in consolidated Freedom of Information
 Act (FOIA) cases against the Internal Revenue Service (IRS), the
 District Court, Sparks, J., held that:  (1) Vaughn  index submitted by IRS
 was sufficient;  (2) documents generated subsequent to date specified in FOIA
 request were outside scope of request and did not have to be disclosed;  (3)
 documents or portions of documents containing information on allocation of IRS
 resources were not exempt under FOIA exemption for internal personnel rules and
 practices;  (4) statement by IRS in Vaughn  index that records are tax
 return information is sufficient for purposes of FOIA exemption for records
 specifically exempted from disclosure by statute;  (5) information in documents
 withheld to protect government employees' privacy interest in their handwriting
 had to be reproduced in form that protected that privacy interest and
 disclosed;  and (6) IRS' statement regarding segregability, that "document
 cannot be segregated for partial release" did not give requisite explanation
 why document could not be segregated and released.
  Motions granted in part and denied in part.

 [1] RECORDS
 Exemptions from compelled disclosure set forth in Freedom of Information Act
 (FOIA) are to be narrowly construed.  5 U.S.C.A. s 552(b).

 [2] RECORDS
 Vaughn index must adequately describe record, state what Freedom of
 Information Act (FOIA) exemption agency claims and explain why agency believes
 record falls within exemption.  5 U.S.C.A. s 552(b).

 [3] RECORDS
 In Vaughn index regarding Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request, agency
 does not have to describe record to extent that description compromises secrecy
 of record;  description is sufficient if it enables court to reach its own
 conclusion as to what is in record.  5 U.S.C.A. s 552(b).

 [4] RECORDS
 Mere conclusory and generalized statements that record falls within exempt
 category of Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) is insufficient to satisfy
 requirements of Vaughn index.  5 U.S.C.A. s 552(b).

 [5] RECORDS
 Court is entitled to rely on accuracy of Vaughn index in Freedom of
 Information Act (FOIA) litigation.  5 U.S.C.A. s 552(b).

 [6] RECORDS
 Vaughn index submitted by Internal Revenue Service (IRS) in Freedom of
 Information Act (FOIA) litigation was sufficient;  index contained more than
 conclusory statements, identified each record, described each record with
 sufficient detail to permit court to determine what it contained, stated
 exemption or exemptions IRS contended applied, and explained why IRS believed
 each record or portion thereof was exempt.  5 U.S.C.A. s 552(b).

 [7] RECORDS
 Documents generated subsequent to date specified in Freedom of Information Act
 (FOIA) request were outside scope of request and did not have to be
 disclosed.  5 U.S.C.A. s 552(b).

 [8] RECORDS
 Records are exempt under Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) exemption for

 if disclosure would risk circumvention of agency regulation.  5 U.S.C.A. s
 552(b)(2).

 [9] RECORDS
 Documents or portions of documents containing information on allocation of
 Internal Revenue Service (IRS) resources were not protected under Freedom of
 Information Act (FOIA) exemption for internal personnel rules and practices;
 while information was predominantly internal, there was no evidence that
 disclosure might risk circumvention of agency regulations, and while it related
 to trivial administrative matters, it was information in which public had
 genuine interest.  5 U.S.C.A. s 552(b)(2).

 [10] RECORDS
 Internal Revenue Service (IRS) was entitled to withhold routing slip regarding
 proposed meeting under Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) exemption for internal

 trivial agency matters as routing slip.  5 U.S.C.A. s 552(b)(2).

 [11] RECORDS
 Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) exemption for records specifically exempted
 from disclosure by statute other than FOIA itself authorizes agency to withhold
 only those portions of record that are expressly protected by statute.  5

 U.S.C.A.;  26 U.S.C.A. s 6103(a).

 [13] RECORDS
 Simply removing identifying details from tax return information does not permit
 disclosure of otherwise confidential return information pursuant to statute
 providing that return information does not include data "in a form" which
 cannot be associated with particular taxpayer but, rather, "in a form"
 refers to statistical studies, compilations and other similar reformulation of
 return information.  5 U.S.C.A. s 552(b)(3);  26 U.S.C.A. s 6103(b)(2).

 [14] RECORDS
 Statement by Internal Revenue Service (IRS) in Vaughn index that records are
 tax return information is sufficient for purposes of Freedom of Information
 Act (FOIA) exemption for records specifically exempted from disclosure by
 statute;  providing details to establish that record is return information
 would compromise confidentiality required by statute protecting such
 information.  5 U.S.C.A. s 552(b)(3);  26 U.S.C.A. s 6103(b)(2).

 [15] RECORDS
 Internal Revenue Service (IRS) records containing third-party tax return

 552(a)(4)(B) and 28 U.S.C. s 1331.  The Court has reviewed the parties'
 cross-motions for summary judgment and enters the following:
                                       I.
  The Freedom of Information Act, 5 U.S.C. s 552, was enacted to give the
 public greater access to government records.  See, Department of Air Force
 v. Rose, 425 U.S. 352, 96 S.Ct. 1592, 48 L.Ed.2d 11 (1976);  Environmental
 Protection Agency v. Mink, 410 U.S. 73, 93 S.Ct. 827, 35 L.Ed.2d 119 (1973).
 Generally, it requires each government agency to grant the public access to all
 records of the agency.  See, 5 U.S.C. s 552(a)(1-3).  A member of the public
 begins the process by filing a "request" for records under the Act.  The agency
 is then required to search its files for any document(s) responsive to the
 individual's request and make the records "promptly" available to the
 individual.  See, 5 U.S.C. s 552(a)(3).
  [1] Section (b) of the act creates nine exemptions from compelled
 disclosure.  See, 5 U.S.C. s 552(b).  The exemptions are to be narrowly
 construed.  See, U.S. Dept. of Justice v. Julian, 486 U.S. 1, 8, 108 S.Ct.
 1606, 1611, 100 L.Ed.2d 1 (1988);  Department of Air Force v. Rose, 425 U.S.
 at 361, 96 S.Ct. at 1599.  If the agency claims one or more of the nine
 exemptions apply to a requested document, the agency may withhold the
 document.  It must, however, notify the person that it is withholding the
 document and give its reasons for withholding the document.  See, 5 U.S.C. s
 552(a)(6)(A)(i).  The Act also requires the agency to segregate and disclose
 "any reasonably segregable portion of a record" after deleting the portions
 which are exempt.  See, 5 U.S.C. s 552(b).
  If documents are withheld, the Act permits the individual to file a complaint
 in Federal district court once the individual exhausts his administrative
 remedies.  The agency has the burden of establishing the exempt status of the
 record.  See, 5 U.S.C. s 552(a)(4)(B).  The district court determines the
 matter de novo and may examine the documents in camera.  See, 5 U.S.C. s
 552(a)(3)(B).
                                       II.
  On December 10, 1990, Plaintiff, Church of Scientology of Texas (CST or C of S
 Texas), sent two letters to Defendant, Internal Revenue Service (IRS),
 requesting information under the Freedom of Information Act.  One letter
 sought "a copy of all records, documents, notes, control cards, subject files,
 tapes, buck slips, electronic information, and/or information relating to or
 concerning C of S Texas Church of Scientology and/or Scientology, and Dianetics
 in the Inspection Division of the National Office [of the IRS], including any
 records on compliance projects."  (emphasis added) The request also included
 "any records that refer to C of S Texas or that are retrievable in a search for
 files listed in C of S Texas or Scientology's name."  The request was limited
 "to records from January 1981 to the present."  The second letter requested the
 same information but from the "Exempt Organization files" and covered the
 period "from January 1974 to the present."  IRS employees located 2167 pages of
 records responsive to the requests.  The IRS released some records in full,
 released portions of some records, and withheld in full some records claiming
 they were exempt under the FOIA.  After exhausting its administrative remedies,
 the CST filed cause A-91-CA-152 on February 27, 1991, seeking to compel the IRS
 to release the records withheld under the Inspection Division request.  The
 next day, on February 28, 1991, the CST filed cause A-91-CA-159 seeking court
 ordered release of the records withheld under the Exempt Organization request.
 The two causes were consolidated by court order dated March 7, 1991 and
 transferred to this Court's docket on January 10, 1992.
  The IRS does not contest that the withheld records fall within the
 FOIA's coverage, but asserts that they are exempt from disclosure by one or
 more of the nine exemptions contained in Subsection (b) of the Act.
 Specifically, the IRS claims the withheld records are exempt from disclosure by
 Exemptions 2, 3, 5, 6 and 7.  It insists "that it has complied in good faith
 with the requirements of the FOIA and that it has submitted materials more than
 sufficient to support its withholding *1147 of certain documents under the
 exemption provisions of the statute."  See, Internal Revenue Service's
 Statement, p. 5 (May 20, 1992).
  In July 1991, pursuant to the Magistrate's order, the IRS served upon the CST
 and filed with the district court a Vaughn Index [FN1] (Index).  The Index
 allegedly describes the contents of 2167 pages of records and details the legal
 basis for withholding each record or portion thereof that the IRS withheld.
 The Index itself is 534 pages.  To further support its position that the
 records were properly withheld, the IRS submitted the affidavits of John
 Fuhrman [FN2], Roderick H. Darling [FN3] and Steven D. Raisch [FN4], all IRS
 employees who searched for records responsive to the CST's requests and
 reviewed those records to determine if they should be disclosed.  The CST,
 dissatisfied with the Index, filed a motion for a more detailed Index.  The
 magistrate denied the motion.  The CST did not appeal the order, but,
 subsequently, filed a "Counter-Vaughn Index" in which it attempts to
 demonstrate why it believes the IRS's Index is inadequate and, where possible,
 why the records are not exempt under subsection (b) of the Act.  The CST also
 submitted affidavits to further support its position.

      FN1. See, Vaughn v. Rosen, 484 F.2d 820, (D.C.Cir.1973), cert. denied,
     415 U.S. 977, 94 S.Ct. 1564, 39 L.Ed.2d 873 (1974).  A Vaughn Index
     is designed to permit a court to efficiently and effectively determine an
     agency's exemption claim to an FOIA request.  The Fifth Circuit has adopted
     the Vaughn Index.  See, Stephenson v. Internal Revenue Service, 629
     F.2d 1140 (5th Cir.1980).

      FN2. Fuhrman is an attorney with the Office of Chief Counsel, Internal
     Revenue Service, assigned to the staff of the Assistant Chief Counsel
     (Disclosure Litigation).

      FN3. Darling is a Conferee-Reviewer in the EO Technical Divisional, Office
     of the Assistant Commissioner (Employee Plans and Exempt Organizations),
     Internal Revenue Service.

      FN4. Raisch is a Staff Inspector in the Disclosure Section of the Internal
     Revenue Service Inspection Office in Washington, D.C.

  The CST insists the IRS has not met its legal burden to justify withholding
 the documents.  It contends the Index submitted by the IRS is insufficient
 because it is conclusory and does not describe each document with sufficient
 detail to permit the Court to make an intelligent de novo determination whether
 the entire document is exempt, a portion of the document is exempt or none of
 the document is exempt.  Additionally, the CST insists that even if the Index
 is sufficiently descriptive, the records are nevertheless subject to disclosure
 because they do not fall within one or more of the exemptions.  Therefore, it
 contends the IRS has failed to meet its burden and should be required to
 produce the requested records to the CST.
  [2][3][4] Congress did not intend for a court to review in camera every
 record an agency withholds.  A Vaughn Index relieves a court of this
 burden.  It allows a court to effectively and efficiently evaluate whether a
 withheld record is exempt;  informs a court what information is contained in a
 withheld record so that the court can determine de novo if the record is in
 fact exempt;  and gives the requester a meaningful opportunity to contest the
 agency's claim of exemption.  The Index must therefore adequately describe the
 record, state what exemption the agency claims and explain why the agency
 believes the record falls within the exemption.  The agency does not have to
 describe a record to the extent that the description compromises the secrecy of
 the record.  A description is sufficient if it enables a court to reach its own
 conclusion as to what is in the record.  Mere conclusory and generalized
 statements that a record falls within an exempt category, however, are
 insufficient.  See, Vaughn v. Rosen, 484 F.2d 820, 826-827 (D.C.Cir.1973),
 cert. denied 415 U.S. 977, 94 S.Ct. 1564, 39 L.Ed.2d 873 (1974);  See also,
 N.L.R.B. v. Robbins Tire & Rubber Co., 437 U.S. 214, 224, 98 S.Ct. 2311,
 2318, 57 L.Ed.2d 159 (1978) ("The in camera review provision is discretionary
 by its terms, and is designed to be invoked when the issue before the District
 Court could not be otherwise resolved;  it thus does not mandate that the
 documents be individually examined in every case.");  Schiller v. N.L.R.B.,
 964 F.2d 1205, 1207 (D.C.Cir.1992);  National Treasury Employees Union v.
 U.S. Customs Service, 802 F.2d 525, 527 (D.C.Cir.1986).
  *1148 [5] The Court is entitled to rely on the accuracy of the
 Vaughn Index.
   FOIA litigation is not immune from our open, adversary process.  In camera,
 ex parte review, though permitted under FOIA and sometimes necessary, is
 generally disfavored--it 'is not a substitute' for the government's obligations
 to justify its withholding in publicly available and debatable documents, and
 it should be invoked only when the issue at hand " 'could not be otherwise
 resolved.' "  The purpose of the Vaughn Index is to "permit adequate
 adversary testing of the agency's claimed right to an exemption," and those who
 contest denials of FOIA requests--who are, necessarily, at a disadvantage
 because they have not seen the withheld documents--can generally prevail only
 by showing that the agency's Vaughn Index does not justify withholding
 information under the exemptions invoked.  FOIA litigants are entitled to
 assume that the agency's Vaughn Index is accurate in every detail.  And so
 is the court.  There is no excuse for submitting a Vaughn Index that
 contains errors, even minor ones.  We expect agencies to ensure that their
 submissions in FOIA cases are absolutely accurate.
  Schiller, 964 F.2d at 1209 (citations omitted).
  [6] The Vaughn Index submitted by the IRS is sufficient.  Contrary to the
 CST's suggestion, the Index contains more than conclusory statements.  The
 Index identifies each record, describes each record with sufficient detail to
 permit the Court to determine what it contains, states the exemption or
 exemptions the IRS contends apply, and explains why the IRS believes each
 record or portion thereof is exempt.  In sum, the Index permits the Court to
 effectively and efficiently evaluate the contents of each record and make an
 intelligent decision whether any portion of it is exempt.  It also gives the
 CST a meaningful opportunity to contest the IRS's claim of exemption.
                             III. DATE RESTRICTIONS
  [7] The IRS withheld a number of records claiming they were outside the
 scope of the requests because they were generated subsequent to the date of the
 requests.  The FOIA does not expressly or implicitly require an agency to
 locate documents outside the dates specified in the request.  Furthermore, it
 is unreasonable to expect an agency to locate and determine the disclosability
 of documents generated subsequent to the date specified in a request.  The
 agency should only be required to make one thorough search per request.
 Therefore, there has to be a temporal deadline for documents that satisfy the
 request.  The most logical deadline is the date specified in the request.  A
 different deadline would require the agency to make numerous searches--one when
 the request is filed, one after reviewing the documents responsive to the
 request, and if this last search locates any records, at least one more after
 determining whether those records are subject to disclosure.  It is easy to see
 how a search could be a never ending process if the cut-off date for records
 responsive to the request is a date other than the date specified in the
 request.  Additionally, The FOIA "places a premium on rapidly processing FOIA
 requests."  Bonner v. U.S. Dept. of State, 928 F.2d 1148, 1152
 (D.C.Cir.1991).  If an agency has to conduct more than one search, the response
 time will be slower.  If the requester desires documents from dates other than
 those specified in the request the requester simply has to file another
 request.  This makes the most sense from an administrative standpoint.
 Documents generated subsequent to the date specified in the request are outside
 the scope of the request and need not be disclosed.
                                 IV. EXEMPTIONS
  The Court has determined the matter de novo.
                                 A. Exemption 2
  [8] The IRS contends some of the withheld records are exempt under 5
 U.S.C. s 552(b)(2) (Exemption 2).  Records that relate "solely to the internal
 personnel rules and practices of an agency" are exempt from disclosure.  5
 U.S.C. s 552(b)(2) (Exemption 2).  Records that relate "solely to the internal
 personnel rules and practices of an agency" *1149 are exempt from
 disclosure.  5 U.S.C. s 552(b)(2).  Records are exempt under Exemption 2 if
 they are internal records that (1) relate to trivial agency matters of which
 the public does not have a legitimate interest or (2) if disclosure would risk
 circumvention of an agency regulation.  See, Rose, 425 U.S. at 369, 96 S.Ct.
 at 1603;  Schiller, 964 F.2d at 1207;  National Treasury Employees Union,
 802 F.2d at 528.
  The D.C. Circuit recently stated the Exemption 2 test as:
   If the threshold test of predominant internality is met, an agency may
 withhold the material "by proving either [1] 'disclosure may risk circumvention
 of agency regulations,' or [2] 'the material relates to trivial administrative
 matters of no genuine public interest.' "
  Schiller, 964 F.2d at 1207, (quoting, Schwaner v. Department of Air
 Force, 898 F.2d 793, 794 (D.C.Cir.1990).)
  [9] The IRS withheld documents or portions of documents containing
 information on the allocation of IRS resources claiming they were exempt under
 Exemption 2.  For example, the IRS withheld page 757 [FN5] described as:

      FN5. The IRS also withheld these pages or portions thereof pursuant to
     Exemptions 6 and 7(C).

   Form 1038, Advance of travel funds, dated 10/22/90, with handwritten entries.
   Personal information about lower level Service employee including [social
 security number], home address.  Information about allocation of resources and
 employee handwriting.
  The justification for withholding the resource allocation information states:
   The withheld information contains or consists of matters related to the
 allocation of human resources to the investigation by Inspection as well as
 other personnel matters relating to Service employees involved in the
 investigation.  The withheld information therefore relates solely to the
 internal personnel rules and practices of the agency.
  The allocation information meets the "predominant internality" test.  However,
 it fails the second part of the test.  First, there is no evidence that
 disclosure might "risk circumvention of agency regulations."  Second, although
 the information "relates to trivial administrative matters," it is information
 in which the public has a genuine interest.  This is taxpayers' money and the
 public is entitled to know how the IRS is allocating it.  Consequently, unless
 otherwise exempt, the information must be disclosed.
  [10] The other documents and portions of documents withheld pursuant to
 Exemption 2 are exempt.  For example, the IRS withheld pages 749-752 [FN6]
 described as:

      FN6. The IRS also withheld these pages or portions thereof pursuant to
     Exemptions 6 and 7(C).
     The page numbers cited in the order correspond to the page number of the
     document the IRS withheld, not the page number in the Vaughn or counter-
     Vaughn Indexes. (e.g. pages 749-752 of the 2167 pages the IRS withheld and
     not pages 749-752 of the Vaughn Index or the counter-Vaughn Index)

   Page 749 is a handwritten routing slip dated 11/20/90 from a Service employee
 to Inspection employees regarding a proposed meeting.  The attachments concern
 potential attendees and other details concerning the proposed meeting.  (pages
 750-752).
   Identities of lower level employees, employee handwriting, matters
 relating to internal personnel rules and practices of the Service.
  The IRS's justification states:
   The withheld information contains or consists of matters related to the
 allocation of human resources to the investigation by Inspection as well as
 other personnel matters relating to Service employees involved in the
 investigation.  The withheld information therefore relates solely to the
 internal personnel rules and practices of the Service.
  The public does not have a legitimate interest in such trivial agency matters
 as a routing slip.  Consequently, the material relates solely to trivial
 administrative matters of no genuine public interest and the record and was
 properly withheld.
                                *1150 Exemption 3
  [11] 5 U.S.C. s 552(b)(3) exempts from disclosure all records that are
 "specifically exempted from disclosure by statute" other than the FOIA itself.
 Exemption 3 authorizes an agency to withhold only those portions of a record
 that are expressly protected by statute.  See, Julian, 486 U.S. at 11, 108
 S.Ct. at 1612.  The IRS withheld records under exemption 3 relying upon 26
 U.S.C. s 6103(a);  Federal Rule of Criminal Procedure 6(e);  and 5 U.S.C.
 Appendix 4, s 205.  Each will be discussed separately.
                       (1) Records Relating to Tax Returns
  [12][13] 26 U.S.C. s 6103(a) is an exempting statute for FOIA purposes.
 See, Church of Scientology of California v. I.R.S., 484 U.S. 9, 11, 108
 S.Ct. 271, 273, 98 L.Ed.2d 228 (1987);  Linsteadt v. I.R.S., 729 F.2d 998,
 1003 (5th Cir.1984).  It states that "returns and return information shall be
 confidential."  See, 26 U.S.C. s 6103(a).  A "return" is defined as "any tax
 or information return, declaration or estimated tax, or claim for refund"
 including supporting schedules, attachments and lists.  See, 26 U.S.C. s
 6103(b)(1).  "Return information" is:
   a taxpayer's identity, the nature, source, or amount of his income, payments,
 receipts, deduction, exemptions, credits, assets, liabilities, net worth, tax
 liability, tax withheld, deficiencies, overassessments, or tax payments,
 whether the taxpayer's return was, is being, or will be examined or subject to
 other investigation or processing, or any other data, received by, recorded by,
 prepared by, furnished to, or collected by the Secretary with respect to a
 return or with respect to the determination of the existence, or possible
 existence, or liability (or the amount thereof) of any person under this title
 for any tax, penalty, interest, fine, forfeiture, or other imposition, or
 offense....
  See, 26 U.S.C. s 6103(b)(2).  "Return Information" does not include:
   such term does not include data in a form which cannot be associated with, or
 otherwise identify, directly or indirectly, a particular taxpayer.
  Id.  Thus, "tax returns" are exempt from disclosure, but "return
 information" may be disclosed if it is "in a form" that keeps the identity of
 the taxpayer confidential.  The Supreme Court has interpreted "in a form" to
 mean more than simply removing taxpayer identifying information.  See,
 Church of Scientology of California, 484 U.S. at 18, 108 S.Ct. at 276.
 Thus, simply removing identifying details does not permit the disclosure of
 otherwise confidential return information.  See, Id.  "In a form" refers to
 statistical studies, compilations and other similar reformulation of return
 information.  See, Id. 484 U.S. at 17-18, 108 S.Ct. at 276.  So, if the IRS
 takes return information from various taxpayers and creates a statistical study
 or a compilation, the statistical study or compilation would be subject to
 disclosure.
  [14] CST contends it is entitled to the returns because the IRS has
 not established "the documents it is attempting to withhold pursuant to
 Exemption 3 are truly third party tax return information" and because the IRS
 has not provided sufficient facts to "demonstrate that the information [is]
 return information."  The Court is unaware of any way, and CST has not provided
 any suggestions, the IRS can establish a record is third party return
 information other simply stating that it is.  Providing details to establish a
 record is "third party return information" would compromise the confidentiality
 required by s 6103(a).  The Court also believes a statement by the IRS in
 the Index that the records are return information is sufficient.  The other
 alternative is for the IRS to recite the pertinent parts of the "return
 information" definition from s 6103--i.e. "This record contains a taxpayer's
 identity, the nature, source, and amount of his income...."--which would only
 serve to make the Index unnecessarily longer than it already is.  This would
 not enable the CST to challenge the withholding in any greater depth.
  [15] The documents and portions of documents containing taxpayer return
 information are exempt under Exemption 3.  For example, the IRS withheld pages
 70-78 [FN7] described as:

      FN7. The IRS also withheld this record under Exemptions 5 and 7(C).

   *1151 Page 70 is a handwritten transmittal slip, dated 12/13/90, regarding
 the attached affidavits.  The two affidavits are executed, one is for in camera
 submission (pages 71-72) and the other is for public filing (pages 73-78).
 Both were prepared in conjunction with respect to a litigation other than the
 instant case.  Neither affidavit has been filed in the other litigation.
   Third party return information, documents which are not finalized and
 therefore predecisional inasmuch as they have not been filed in court, attorney
 work product, identities of lower level Service employees, and employee
 handwriting.
  The IRS's justification for withholding the return states:
   The withheld information consists of or contains return information of (a)
 third party taxpayer(s).  Disclosure of this information is prohibited by
 I.R.C. 6103(a).
  Another example, the IRS withheld pages 1382-1387 [FN8] described as:

      FN8. The IRS also withheld this page or portions thereof under Exemption
     7(C).

   Pages 1382-1383 are copies of computer printouts of third party return
 information.
   Third Party return information.
  The IRS gives the same justification as pages 73-78 for withholding this
 record.
  The records were properly withheld as they contain third party tax return
 information.  There is no indication that either of the records is a
 compilation, a statistical study or other similar reformulation of return
 information.  Rather, the information is return information of a single third
 party.  As such, it is exempt from disclosure even if the IRS removes all
 identifying information.
                           (2) Grand Jury Proceedings
  [16][17] Federal Rule of Criminal Procedure 6(e) is also an exempting
 statute for purposes of the FOIA.  See, Fund for Constitutional Government
 v. National Archives and Records Service, 656 F.2d 856, 867-868
 (D.C.Cir.1981) (Rule 6(e)'s "ban on disclosure is for FOIA purposes absolute
 and falls within subpart (A) of Exemption 3.").  Rule 6(e) provides
 generally that proceedings occurring before a grand jury may not be disclosed.
 The Rule provides for limited exceptions, none of which are applicable here.
 The agency must establish a nexus between the record and the operation of the
 grand jury, See, Senate of Puerto Rico v. Department of Justice, 823 F.2d
 574, 582 (D.C.Cir.1987):
   We have never embraced a reading of Rule 6(e) so literal a to draw
 "a veil of secrecy ... over all matters occurring in the world that happen to
 be investigation by a grand jury."  There is no per se rule against disclosure
 of any and all information which has reached the grand jury chambers;  as the
 district court correctly observed, the touchstone is whether disclosure would
 "tend to reveal some secret aspect of the grand jury's investigation" such
 matters as " 'the identities of witnesses or jurors, the substance of
 testimony, the strategy or direction of the investigation, the deliberations or
 questions or jurors, and the like.' "  The disclosure of information
 "coincidentally before the grand jury [which can] be revealed in such a manner
 that its revelation would not elucidate the inner workings of the grand jury"
 is not prohibited.  Automatically sealing all that a grand jury sees or hears
 would enable the government to shield any information from public view
 indefinitely by the simple expedient of presenting it to the grand jury.
  (footnotes and citations omitted) (emphasis in original);  See also, Fund
 for Constitutional Government 656 F.2d at 869, (quoting, SEC v. Dresser
 Industries, Inc., 202 U.S.App.D.C. 345, 359, 628 F.2d 1368, 1382 (en banc),
 cert. denied, 449 U.S. 993, 101 S.Ct. 529, 66 L.Ed.2d 289 (1980).)  (The
 "scope of the secrecy is necessarily broad," encompassing testimony before the
 grand jury and "information which would reveal 'the identities of witnesses or
 jurors, the substance of testimony, the strategy or direction of the
 investigation, the deliberations or questions of the jurors, and the like.' ".)
  *1152 [18] The IRS withheld page 1804 [FN9] pursuant to Exemption 3 in
 conjunction with Rule 6(e).  The IRS describes the record:

      FN9. The IRS also relied on Exemptions 3 in conjunction with I.R.C.
     6103(a), 7(C) and 7(D) in withholding this page or portions thereof.

   Memorandum dated 9/17/86 to Assistant Commissioner (Inspection) from Regional
 Inspector, Western Region containing responses to inquiries regarding complaint
 letter from President of Church of Scientology International.  Employee
 signature.
   Third party return information, identities of lower level Service employees
 and third parties, employee handwriting, information regarding a grand jury,
 and information provided by a confidential source.
  It justifies withholding the grand jury information:
   "Certain of the withheld information consists of or contains information
 concerning grand jury proceedings, testimony, or other grand jury activities or
 references thereto.  Disclosure of this information is prohibited under Rule
 6(e) of the Federal Rules of Criminal Procedures."
  Disclosure of this information would disclose the substance of testimony
 before the grand jury.  It is therefore exempt from disclosure.
                       (3) Financial Disclosure Statements
  [19] The IRS withheld pages 629-671 [FN10] pursuant to Exemption 3 in
 conjunction with the Ethics in Government Act (EGA), 5 U.S.C., Appendix 4, s
 201 et seq., claiming that the CST had not complied with the disclosure
 requirements of the EGA.  The IRS described pages 629-671 as:

      FN10. The pages or portions thereof were also withheld pursuant to
     Exemption 7(C).

   "Financial Disclosure Reports, employee handwriting, and identities of
 Service employees."
  The justification for withholding the record states:
   Title 5, Appendix 4, section 201, et seq.  "Executive Personnel Financial
 Disclosure Requirements" provides a comprehensive scheme which regulates the
 filing of detailed personal financial statements by government executives.
 Section 205 "Custody of and public access to reports" specifically provides
 that Financial Disclosure Reports may be disclosed only in accordance with the
 requirements of section 205(b)(2).  Because plaintiff's FOIA request does
 not meet these requirements, the Service has withheld these reports.
  Section 205(a) of the EGA provides that financial disclosure statements
 shall be made available to the public in accordance with subsection (b).
 Subsection (b)(2) states that a financial disclosure statement may not be
 disclosed unless and until the requester makes a written application stating
 the "person's name, occupation and address;  the name and address of any other
 person or organization on whose behalf the inspection or copy is requested;
 and that such person is aware of the prohibitions on the obtaining or use of
 the report."  Although the EGA and the FOIA both authorize the disclosure of
 the financial disclosure statements, a requester must comply with the
 disclosure requirements of the EGA before it is entitled to the statements.
 The requester cannot use the FOIA to circumvent the express requirements of the
 EGA.  The IRS contends that the CST did not comply with the express
 requirements of the EGA, a contention that the CST does not deny.  Accordingly,
 the IRS properly withheld the record pursuant to Exemption 3.
                                   Exemption 5
  [20] Exemption 5 permits the IRS to withhold "inter-agency or intra-agency
 memorandums or letters which would not be available by law to a party other
 than an agency in litigation with the agency."  See, 5 U.S.C. s 552(b)(5).
 The purpose of Exemption 5 is to protect the " 'decision making process of
 government agencies.' "  See, National Labor Relations Board v. Sears,
 Roebuck & Co., 421 U.S. 132, 150, 95 S.Ct. 1504, 1516, 44 L.Ed.2d 29
 (1975) (citations omitted).  The Exemption protects documents not normally
 discoverable in civil litigation with the agency, including:  materials which
 would be protected under the governmental deliberative process privilege, the
 attorney *1153 work-product privilege and the attorney-client privilege.
 See, Federal Trade Commission v. Grolier Incorporated, 462 U.S. 19, 26, 103
 S.Ct. 2209, 2214, 76 L.Ed.2d 387 (1983);  Sears, Roebuck & Co., 421 U.S. at
 150-161, 95 S.Ct. at 1515-1522;  Dow Jones & Co., Inc. v. Department of
 Justice, 917 F.2d 571, 573 (D.C.Cir.1990).  Exemption 5's test "is whether the
 documents would be 'routinely' or 'normally' disclosed upon a showing of
 relevance."  Grolier Incorporated, 462 U.S. at 26, 103 S.Ct. at 2214,
 (citing, Sears, Roebuck & Co., 421 U.S. at 148-149, 95 S.Ct. at 1515.)
  [21] A document may be inter-agency or intra-agency even if it was not
 created by an agency employee.  This situation may arise when an agency hires
 an outside consultant.  The 5th Circuit has adopted a functional test to
 determine whether a document created by someone outside the agency is
 nevertheless an inter-agency or intra-agency document.  See, State of Texas
 v. I.C.C., 889 F.2d 59, 61 (5th Cir.1989).  If the "agency has 'a special need
 for the opinions and recommendations of temporary consultants,' documents
 reflecting such information should be exempt from disclosure."  Id.
                       (1) Executive Deliberative Process
  [22][23][24] The IRS withheld a number of documents pursuant to Exemption
 5's executive deliberative process privilege.  The executive deliberative
 process privilege protects inter-agency or intra-agency documents that disclose
 deliberative or policy-making processes of the agency.  See, Sears,
 Roebuck & Co., 421 U.S. at 153, 95 S.Ct. at 1517-1518.  Communications
 subsequent to the agency decision do not effect the decision making process and
 are not exempt.  See, Id. 421 U.S. at 151, 95 S.Ct. at 1517.  Furthermore,
 "purely factual material appearing in [deliberative] documents in a form that
 is severable without compromising the private remainder of the documents" is
 not exempt.  See, Mink, 410 U.S. at 91, 93 S.Ct. at 838.  Accordingly, the
 privilege exempts documents reflecting an agency's thinking process in
 formulating its policy and law, but documents detailing and explaining the
 agency's policy and law are not exempt.  Sears, Roebuck & Co., 421 U.S. at
 153, 95 S.Ct. at 1517-1518.  If, however, an agency adopts or incorporates by
 reference a document covered by the Exemption 5 into a final opinion, that
 document loses Exemption 5 status and must be disclosed unless it falls within
 the coverage of another exemption.  See, Id. 421 U.S. at 161, 95 S.Ct. at
 1521-1523.
  [25] The documents and portions of documents revealing the deliberative
 process of the IRS are exempt under Exemption 5.  For example, the IRS withheld
 pages 731-733 [FN11] which it describes as:

      FN11. The IRS also withheld these pages or portions thereof pursuant to
     Exemption 7(C).

   Page 731 is a handwritten Routing Slip dated 10/11 to Inspection employees
 containing thoughts and recommendations.  Page 732 is a handwritten note dated
 10/10/90 to an Inspection employee concerning a briefing, and page 733 is a
 handwritten Memo Routing Slip date 10/10 to Inspection employees regarding a
 briefing.  Predecisional material, identities of lower level Service employees,
 and employee handwriting.
  The IRS's explanation for withholding the record states:
   The withheld information reflects employee(s)' advice, opinions, and/or
 recommendations concerning the open investigation of the Inspections Branch,
 Internal Security Division, Office of Chief Inspector (Inspection), regarding
 incidents of actual and/or perceived harassments and/or unusual occurrences
 reported by IRS personnel whose official duties included assignments to
 Scientology-related matters, preliminary analysis of information received by
 Inspection regarding such matters, and/or proposed courses of action with
 respect thereto, which comprised part of the Service's deliberation and
 preceded the conclusion of the investigation.
  The record is a predecisional document the disclosure of which would
 interfere with the IRS's deliberative and policy-making decisions.  There is no
 evidence that the IRS has adopted or incorporated by reference this document
 into a final opinion.  Furthermore, there is no factual information in the
 document which can be segregated and disclosed.  *1154 Consequently, the IRS
 properly withheld the document.
                      (2) Attorney-Client and Work-Product
  [26][27] The IRS also withheld a number of documents pursuant to Exemption
 5's attorney-client and attorney work-product withholding provisions.
 Documents protected by the attorney-client and attorney work-product privileges
 are not "routinely" or "ordinarily" available to opposing parties in litigation
 and thus are exempt under Exemption 5.  See, Grolier Incorporated, 462 U.S.
 at 27, 103 S.Ct. at 2214.  The attorney-client privilege protects
 communications between an attorney and his client that are intended to be
 confidential.  See, Granviel v. Lynaugh, 881 F.2d 185, 192 (5th Cir.1989),
 cert. denied, 495 U.S. 963, 110 S.Ct. 2577, 109 L.Ed.2d 758 (1990),
 (citing, Wells v. Rushing, 755 F.2d 376, 379 n. 2 (5th Cir.1985));
 Shields v. Sturm, Ruger & Co., 864 F.2d 379, 382 (5th Cir.1989).  The work-
 product privilege protects documents prepared in anticipation of litigation
 that reveal an attorney's legal theories and mental impressions.  See, Dunn
 v. State Farm Fire & Casualty Company, 927 F.2d 869, 875 (5th Cir.1991);
 FED.R.CIV.P. 26(b)(3).
  [28] Attorney work-product materials are protected even if they were not
 prepared for a specific claim;  it is sufficient if they were prepared in
 anticipation of foreseeable litigation.  See, Schiller, 964 F.2d at 1209.
 The privilege applies "without regard to the status of the litigation for which
 it was prepared."  Grolier Incorporated, 462 U.S. at 28, 103 S.Ct. at 2215;
 See also, Nadler v. U.S. Dept. of Justice, 955 F.2d 1479, 1492 (11
 Cir.1992) (The privilege applies to documents prepared in anticipation of and
 during litigation.)
  [29] Furthermore, unlike the deliberative process privilege, the work-
 product and attorney-client privileges protect factual materials contained in
 the privileged documents.  See, Nadler, 955 F.2d at 1492, (citing, Martin
 v. Office of Special Counsel, 819 F.2d 1181, 1185-86 (D.C.Cir.1987).)
  [30][31] The documents and portions of documents containing attorney-client
 and attorney work-product materials and information are exempt under Exemption
 5.  For example, the IRS withheld pages 70-78 [FN12] described as:

      FN12. The IRS also withheld these pages or portions thereof pursuant to
     Exemptions 3 and 7(C).

   Page 70 is a handwritten transmittal slip, dated 12/13/90, regarding the
 attached affidavits.  The two affidavits are executed, one is for in camera
 submission (pages 71-72) and the other is for public filing (pages 73-78).
 Both were prepared in conjunction with respect to a litigation other the
 instant case.  Neither affidavit has been filed in the other litigation.
   Third party return information, documents which are not finalized and
 therefore predecisional inasmuch as they have not been filed in court, attorney
 work product, identities of lower level Service employees, and employee
 handwriting.
  The explanation for withholding the document states:
   The withheld information was prepared by or under the direction of government
 counsel in contemplation of litigation.
  The document was prepared by or under the direction of government counsel in
 preparation of foreseeable litigation.  Consequently, the document is attorney
 work-product material and is exempt.  Another example, the IRS withheld page
 79 [FN13] described as:

      FN13. The page or portions thereof was also withheld under Exemption 7(C).

   Routing and transmittal slip date June 26, 1990, from Chief Counsel attorney
 to Inspection employee.
   Attorney-client communications, identities of lower level Service employees
 and employee handwriting.
  The explanation states:
   This communication between Service personnel and government attorneys relates
 to factual background concerning the investigation by the Inspections Branch,
 Internal Security Division.
  The document consists of attorney-client communications.  Consequently, it is
 exempt.
                                   Exemption 6
  Exemption 6 authorizes an agency to withhold "personnel and medical files and
 similar *1155 files the disclosure of which would constitute a clearly
 unwarranted invasion of personal privacy."  5 U.S.C. s 552(b)(6).
 "Congress' primary purpose in enacting Exemption 6 was to protect individuals
 from the injury and embarrassment that can result from the unnecessary
 disclosure of personal information."  United States Department of State v.
 Washington Post Company, 456 U.S. 595, 599, 102 S.Ct. 1957, 1960, 72 L.Ed.2d
 358 (1982).
  [32] The first question is what type of files are covered by Exemption 6.
 The Exemption obviously covers medical and personnel files.  The Exemption also
 applies to "similar files."  "Similar files" is not defined in the act;
 however, the Supreme Court has addressed the issue:
   In sum, We do not think that Congress meant to limit Exemption 6 to a narrow
 class of files containing only a discrete kind of personal information.
 Rather, "[t]he exemption [was] intended to cover detailed Government records on
 an individual which can be identified as applying to that individual."
  Id. 456 U.S. at 601-602, 102 S.Ct. at 1961, (quoting, H.R.Rep. No. 1497,
 89th Cong., 2nd Sess., 11 (1966), U.S.Code Cong. & Admin.News 1966, pp. 2418,
 2428.)  Consequently, Exemption 6 applies to any file in the possession of an
 agency that contains personal information about an individual.
  [33][34] If the information is contained in a protected file, it is exempt
 from disclosure if disclosure would "constitute a clearly unwarranted invasion
 of [the individual's] personal privacy."  This requires balancing the
 individual's right of privacy against preserving the FOIA's purpose to "open
 agency action to the light of public scrutiny."  Rose, 425 U.S. at 372, 96
 S.Ct. at 1604;  See also, Federal Labor Relations Authority v. United States
 Department of Defense, 975 F.2d 1105, 1110 (5th Cir.1992), petition for cert.
 filed, 61 U.S.L.W. 3534 (U.S. January 19, 1993) (No. 92-1223), (citing,
 Halloran v. Veterans Administration, 874 F.2d 315, 319 (5th Cir.1989) (
 "... requires balancing the specific privacy interests implicated by the
 information against the particular public interests that may be served--or
 disserved--by the disclosure of the information.").)  Exemption 6 does not,
 however, protect nonconfidential information, even if it is contained in a
 protected file.  See, Rose, 425 U.S. at 372, 96 S.Ct. at 1604.
  [35] The documents and portions of documents withheld pursuant to
 Exemption 6 were properly withheld.  For example, the IRS withheld pages 868-
 884. [FN14]  The IRS describes the record as:

      FN14. Pages 868-884 or portions thereof were also withheld pursuant to
     Exemption 7(C).

   Page 868 is a handwritten note containing the names of several employees and
 suggested investigation of a Service employee.  Pages 869-885 are personnel
 documents relating to this employee which include the SF-171, the employee's
 evaluation, and other promotion package information regarding this and other
 employees applying for a particular position.
   Identities of lower level Service employees, employee handwriting, and other
 personal information regarding various Service employees in the promotion
 package.
  Another example, the IRS withheld page 757 [FN15] described as:

      FN15. Page 757 or portions thereof was also withheld pursuant to
     Exemptions 2 and 7(C).

   Form 1038, Advance of travel funds, dated 10/22/90, with handwritten entries.
   Personal information about lower level Service employee including [social
 security number], home address.  Information about allocation of resources and
 employee handwriting.
  The IRS gives the same justification for each record:
   Because public identification of these Service employees could conceivably
 subject them to harassment and annoyance in their private lives and because the
 Internal Revenue Service can discern little or no public interest in this
 information, the Service has determined that release of personal or identifying
 information contained in the withheld materials would constitute a clearly
 unwarranted invasion of personal privacy of these persons.
   The Service is aware that Scientology related entities and/or persons
 affiliated or *1156 believed to be affiliated with Scientology have a
 practice of aggressively harassing its perceived enemies.  This awareness was
 gained from the writings attributed to Scientology's founder, Scientology
 scriptures, the court opinions detailing such action, and the incidents of
 harassment reported in the Los Angeles Times series published between June 24,
 and June 29, 1990, in the Time magazine article date May 6, 1991, in other
 published material, and in the British Broadcasting Company (BBC) program
 televised April 1989.
  The Court is unable to theorize any public interest that may be served by
 disclosing this information.  On the other hand, the individuals have a
 substantial interest in keeping this information private.  The interests
 involved in this case are drastically different than those present in
 Federal Labor Relations Authority--the CST is not the collective bargaining
 agent for the IRS employees.  See, Federal Labor Relations Authority, 975
 F.2d at 1109-1110.  Furthermore, given the degree of animosity between the CST
 and the IRS, IRS employees have a substantial privacy interest in keeping
 personal information confidential.  See, Fuhrman affidavit pp. 5-13 and
 authority cited therein.  The individual's privacy interests are superior to
 the public's interest in disclosure and disclosing the records would constitute
 a clearly unwarranted invasion of the individuals' personal privacy.
                                   Exemption 7
  [36] Exemption 7 covers records or information compiled for law
 enforcement purposes.  It was enacted to permit agencies to "keep certain
 records confidential, lest the agencies be hindered in their investigations or
 placed at a disadvantage when it came time to present their case."  Robbins
 Tire & Rubber Co., 437 U.S. at 224, 98 S.Ct. at 2318.  It subdivides law
 enforcement records into six different categories.  If the record was compiled
 for law enforcement purposes and falls within one or more of the six
 subdivisions, the record is exempt.  See, John Doe Agency v. John Doe
 Corporation, 493 U.S. 146, 155, 110 S.Ct. 471, 477, 107 L.Ed.2d 462 (1989).
 The agency does not have to detail document-by-document why each document falls
 within one of the six categories.  The agency must, however, identify which
 subdivision(s) of Exemption 7 it contends each document falls into and give the
 court sufficient information to make a de novo determination that the document
 falls within the subdivision.  See, John Doe Agency, 493 U.S. at 155, 110
 S.Ct. at 477;  Robbins Tire & Rubber Co., 437 U.S. at 235, 98 S.Ct. at
 2323.  The IRS has withheld records pursuant to four of the subdivisions.
  [37] As a threshold requirement, the IRS must prove that the records or
 information were compiled for law enforcement purposes.  See, John Doe
 Agency, 493 U.S. at 151, 110 S.Ct. at 475.  Examining the plain language of the
 Exemption, the Supreme Court has said that it is irrelevant when the record or
 information was compiled.  See, Id. 493 U.S. at 153, 110 S.Ct. at 476.
 [FN16]  The only requirement is that it be "compiled" when the government
 invokes the exemption.  See, Id. 493 U.S. at 153-156, 110 S.Ct. at 476-
 477.  "Compiled," the Supreme Court said, is anything "composed of materials
 collected and assembled from various sources or other documents."  Id. 493
 U.S. at 153, 110 S.Ct. at 476, (citing, Webster' Third New International
 Dictionary 464 (1961);  Webster's Ninth New Collegiate Dictionary 268 (1983).)
 This includes documents originally compiled for non-law enforcement purposes.
 See, Id. 493 U.S. at 153, 110 S.Ct. at 476.

      FN16. In John Doe Agency the Supreme Court permitted an agency to
     withhold records and information pursuant to Exemption 7 even though the
     records and information were compiled seven years before the investigation.

                                 (1) Exemption 7(A)
  [38] Exemption 7(A) exempts records or information compiled for law
 enforcement purposes to the extent that the production of the records or
 information "could reasonably be expected to interfere with enforcement
 proceedings."  The IRS must demonstrate that "disclosure of [the] document
 would, in some particular, discernable way, disrupt, impede, or otherwise harm
 the enforcement proceeding."  North v. Walsh, 881 F.2d 1088, 1097
 (D.C.Cir.1989).  This occurs if disclosure would inform the party being
 investigated *1157 of the scope or direction of the agency's investigation;
 potentially subject witnesses or others providing information to the agency to
 reprisal or harassment;  permit the target of the investigation to develop
 defenses that would enable violations to go unremedied;  permit the party being
 investigated to destroy or alter evidence;  or chill the willingness of
 individuals providing information to the agency to do so.  See, Robbins
 Tire & Rubber Co., 437 U.S. at 239-242, 98 S.Ct. at 2325-2326;  North, 881
 F.2d at 1097;  Alyeska Pipeline Co. v. U.S. EPA, 856 F.2d 309, 312-313
 (D.C.Cir.1988).
  [39][40][41] Once the investigation has concluded and there is no
 reasonable possibility of future law enforcement proceedings related to the
 requested documents, the documents lose Exemption 7(A) status.  See, Robbins
 Tire & Rubber Co., 437 U.S. at 235, 98 S.Ct. at 2323.  If the investigation is
 open or there is a reasonable possibility of future law enforcement proceedings
 at the time of the request, the documents are exempt.  Furthermore, the agency
 is not required to monitor the investigation and release the documents once the
 investigation is closed and there is no reasonable possibility of future
 proceedings.
   FOIA requires the district court to determine de novo whether requested
 information is properly withheld.  Bonner argues that the de novo standard
 requires a court to determine whether a document is properly withheld or
 redacted as of the time of the court's review.  FOIA judicial review, however,
 while de novo, remains an assessment of the agency decision to withhold a
 document.  That decision, we hold, ordinarily must be evaluated as of the time
 it was made.
   Courts reviewing an agency's action must of necessity limit the scope of
 their inquiry to an appropriate time frame.  In FOIA cases particularly, court
 review properly focuses on the time the determination to withhold is made, for
 the Act places a premium on the rapid processing of FOIA requests.  To require
 an agency to adjust or modify its FOIA responses based on post-response
 occurrences could create an endless cycle of judicially mandated reprocessing.
  Bonner, 928 F.2d at 1152 (citations omitted) (emphasis in original).
  [42] The documents and portions of documents withheld pursuant to Exemption
 7(A) were properly withheld.  For example, [FN17] the IRS withheld pages 1163-
 1164 described as:

      FN17. The IRS also withheld the page or portions thereof pursuant to
     Exemption 7(C).

   Page 1163 is a Memorandum of Interview or Activity dated June 21, 1990 in the
 Western Region, Inspection regarding an open investigation.  Page 1164 is a
 copy of a business card obtained during that investigation.
   Information gathered during the course of an open investigation, identities
 of lower level Service employees and third parties.
  The IRS justification for withholding the document states:
   The document(s) was/were compiled for law enforcement purposes.  The
 document(s) was/were generated with respect to the open investigation by the
 Inspection Service in Western Region regarding incidents of actual and/or
 perceived harassment and/or unusual occurrences reported by Internal Revenue
 Service personnel whose official duties included assignments to Scientology-
 related matters.  Release of the documents could reasonably be expected to
 interfere with enforcement proceedings.
  The document was compiled for law enforcement purposes and relates, at least
 at the time of the request, to an open investigation into incidents of actual
 and/or perceived harassment of IRS employees.  Disclosure could reasonably be
 expected to interfere with enforcement proceedings because disclosure could
 subject IRS employees to harassment or reprisal and inform the party being
 investigated of the direction and scope of the IRS investigation.
 Consequently, the documents are exempt under Exemption 7(A).
                               (2) Exemption 7(C)
  [43] Exemption 7(C) permits an agency to withhold documents compiled
 for law enforcement purposes to the extent that disclosure "could reasonably be
 expected to constitute *1158 an unwarranted invasion of personal privacy."
 The IRS has withheld documents in full or part pursuant to Exemption 7(C) that
 contain (1) identifying information--including names, addresses and social
 security numbers--of actual or potential IRS contacts or lower level government
 employees and (2) handwriting samples of IRS personnel.  An Exemption 7(C)
 analysis requires the Court to balance the individual privacy interests in
 keeping the information confidential against the public interest in its
 release.  See, U.S. Dept. of Justice v. Reporters Committee, 489 U.S. 749,
 762, 109 S.Ct. 1468, 1476, 103 L.Ed.2d 774 (1989);  Burge v. Eastburn, 934
 F.2d 577, 579-580 (5th Cir.1991).  Only the interest of the general public, not
 the interest of the requester, is relevant.  See, Nadler, 955 F.2d at 1489.
 If the individual privacy interests that would suffer if the document was
 disclosed outweigh the public's interest in disclosure, the document is exempt
 from disclosure.  See, Reporters Committee, 489 U.S. at 762, 109 S.Ct. at
 1476.
  [44][45] The first question in an Exemption 7(C) analysis is--What type or
 kind of document is protected?  Exemption 7(C) protects "private" information.
 Information is "private" if it is " 'intended for or restricted to the use of a
 particular person or group of persons:  not freely available to the
 public.' "  Id. (quoting, Webster's Third New International Dictionary 1804
 (1976).)  Intimate details of an individual's life and " 'information about an
 individual which he could reasonably assert an option to withhold from the
 public at large because of its possible adverse effects upon himself or his
 family' " is "private" information.  Nadler, 955 F.2d at 1489, (quoting,
 L & C Marine Transport, LTD v. United States, 740 F.2d 919, 923 (11th
 Cir.1984), (quoting, Attorney General Levi in his memorandum on the 1974
 Amendments to the FOIA, Freedom of Information Act and Amendments of 1974 (P.L.
 93-502), Source Book:  Legislative History, Texts and Other Documents at 519-
 20 (Joint Comm.Print 1975))).  Even "private" information that has been
 previously disclosed is "private."  Reporters Committee, 489 U.S. at 762-
 767, 109 S.Ct. at 1476-1478;  Burge, 934 F.2d at 579.  Basically, any
 personal information in the possession of a government agency is "private."
 See, Reporters Committee, 489 U.S. at 764-767, 109 S.Ct. at 1477-1478.
  [46] If the information is "private," the next question is--Whether an
 invasion of that privacy is warranted?  This requires the Court to examine the
 nature of the information and its relationship to the FOIA's basic purpose of
 opening agency action to public scrutiny.
   Official information that sheds light on an agency's performance of its
 statutory duties falls squarely within [the] purpose [of Exemption 7(C) ].
 That purpose, however, is not fostered by disclosure of information about
 private citizens that is accumulated in various governmental files but that
 reveals little or nothing about an agency's own conduct.
  Id. 489 U.S. at 773, 109 S.Ct. at 1481.  If disclosure does not
 serve the FOIA's purpose, the public interest does not outweigh the privacy
 interests and the information is exempt.  See, Id. 489 U.S. at 773, 109
 S.Ct. at 1481;  Nadler, 955 F.2d at 1490.
  [47] The public interest does not outweigh the privacy interests if
 disclosure could subject government employees to harassment and annoyance.
 See Nix v. United States, 572 F.2d 998, 1006 (4th Cir.1978).  In Nix, the
 requester sought the documents containing the identities of FBI agents and an
 Assistant United States Attorney who were involved in an investigation into an
 alleged civil rights violation of the requester.  The potential harassment and
 annoyance did not threaten the life or physically safety of the individuals.
 See, Id. at 1066 n. 8.  The court held that the disclosure of the
 individuals' identities constituted an unwarranted invasion of their personal
 privacy and were exempt pursuant to Exemption 7(C).
   One who serves his state of nation as a career public servant is not thereby
 stripped of every vestige of personal privacy, even with respect to the
 discharge of his official duties.  Public identification of any of these
 individuals could conceivably subject them to harassment and annoyance in the
 conduct of their official duties and private lives.  While the right of privacy
 to these FBI agents is perhaps minimal, we *1159 find that the public
 interest in the identification of the FBI agents who conducted the
 investigation of the alleged civil rights violation of Nix to be even less.
 For the same reason, the assistant United States Attorney who made the decision
 that appellant's alleged civil rights violation was without prosecutive merit
 is also entitled to have his identity remain undisclosed as being an
 unwarranted invasion of personal privacy under subsection (7)(C).
  Id. at 1006 (footnote omitted);  See also, Hale v. U.S. Dept. of
 Justice, 973 F.2d 894, 902 (10th Cir.1992), petition for cert. filed,
 --- U.S.L.W. ---- (U.S. January 28, 1993) (No. 92-7433) (Non-federal law
 enforcement personnel and non-law enforcement personnel have a substantial
 privacy interest in protecting their identity.).
  [48] The documents and portions of documents containing government
 employees' personal information, including names, addresses and social security
 numbers, are exempt under Exemption 7(C).  For example, the IRS withheld pages
 749-752 [FN18] described as:

      FN18. The IRS also withheld these pages or portions thereof pursuant to
     Exemptions 2 and 6.

   Page 749 is a handwritten routing slip dated 11/20/90 from a Service employee
 to Inspection employees regarding a proposed meeting.  The attachments concern
 potential attendees and other details concerning the proposed meeting. (pages
 750-752).
   Identities of lower level employees, employee handwriting, matters relating
 to internal personnel rules and practices of the Service.
  The IRS also withheld page 729 [FN19] described as:

      FN19. The IRS also withheld these pages or portions thereof pursuant to
     Exemption 7(D).

   Page 729 is a handwritten routing slip date 10/9/90 to Inspection employees
 regarding information received from a confidential source.
   Identities of lower level Service employees, employee handwriting, and
 reference to confidential source.
  The justifications for withholding the information is identical:
   The document(s) was/were compiled for law enforcement purposes.  Because
 public identification of this/these individual(s) could conceivably subject
 him/her/them to harassment and annoyance in the conduct of official duties and
 in the employee(s)' private life/lives and because the Internal Revenue Service
 can discern little or no public interest in this information, the Service
 determined that release of personal or identifying information could reasonably
 be expected to constitute an unwarranted invasion of the personal privacy of
 the lower level government employee(s) whose identity/identities or whose
 identifying information has been withheld.
   The Service is aware that Scientology related entities and/or persons
 affiliated or believed to be affiliated with Scientology have a practice of
 aggressively harassing its perceived enemies.  This awareness was gained from
 the writings attributed to Scientology's founder, Scientology scriptures, the
 court opinions detailing such action, and the incidents of harassment reported
 in the Los Angeles Times series published between June 24, and June 29, 1990,
 in the Time magazine article date May 6, 1991, in other published material, and
 in the British Broadcasting Company (BBC) program televised April 1989.
   Disclosure of the handwriting of Service employee(s) could reasonably be
 expected to constitute an unwarranted invasion of personal privacy by
 subjecting the employee(s) to harassment and annoyance in the conduct of
 official duties and in the employee(s)' private life/lives.  Since the Service
 can discern little or no public interest in the information, the Service
 determined not to release the handwriting of Service employee(s).
  The records were compiled for law enforcement purposes and contain handwriting
 samples and identities of IRS employees.  This is obviously private
 information.  The question is whether public disclosure of this information
 outweighs the privacy interests involved.  First, there is no indication that
 disclosure of this information will open IRS action to public scrutiny.  Thus,
 disclosure does not serve the FOIA's purpose.  Second, although the employees
 interest in their identities and addresses *1160 may be minimal, the
 public's interest in the disclosure of the information is even less.  See,
 Nix, 572 F.2d at 1006.  Finally, there is every indication that disclosure
 of this information could subject the employees to harassment and annoyance in
 the conduct of their official duties and their private lives.  See, Declaration
 of John Fuhrman pages 6-13.  Consequently, the public interest does not
 outweigh the privacy interests and the identities and addresses of lower level
 employees are exempt.
  [49][50] However, the records withheld pursuant to Exemption 7(C) because
 they are in employees' handwriting are not exempt.  While the employees may
 have a privacy interest in their handwriting, that interest does not outweigh
 the public interest in disclosure of the information contained in the
 documents.  In any event there is a very simple solution that will permit
 release of the record and protect the employees' privacy interests.  Although
 the FOIA does not contain an express provision requiring an agency to reproduce
 handwritten documents in a form other than the form in which the agency stores
 the document to permit disclosure of the portions of the document that are not
 otherwise exempt, such a requirement is implicit in the FOIA's dominant theme
 of full agency disclosure, its intent to open agency action to public scrutiny,
 and its redaction provisions.
  This requirement is supported by May v. Department of Air Force, 777
 F.2d 1012 (5th Cir.1985).  May made a request under the Privacy Act, 5
 U.S.C. s 552a for evaluation forms that related to him.  The Air Force denied
 the request pursuant to Exemption k(7) of the Privacy Act which exempts
 evaluation materials from disclosure "to the extent that the disclosure of such
 materials would reveal the identity of a source who furnished information to
 the Government...."  See, 5 U.S.C. s 552a(k)(7).  The Air Force withheld the
 evaluations on the ground that the forms were handwritten and disclosure would
 reveal the identity of the individual supplying the information.  The court
 rejected this argument and required the Air Force to reproduce the evaluations,
 to the extent that they were not otherwise subject to being withheld, in
 typewritten form or in a third persons handwriting.
   The Air Force does not dispute that it must release any information in May's
 Form 705 evaluations that would not reveal the source of that information.
 Rather, the Air Force argues that in the instant case the release of any
 information from the forms, including the total number of forms, would reveal
 the source of the information.  The Air Force contends that because the
 handwritten Form 705 recommendations put the raters' identities on every word
 of the recommendations, Exemption (k)(7) protects against any disclosure of the
 recommendations.  If the information is otherwise subject to disclosure, this
 concern could be easily remedied by preparing a special copy of the Form 705,
 or parts thereof, typewritten or in a third-party's handwriting.
  May, 777 F.2d at 1016.  The court remanded the case to the trial court for
 a determination if any portion of the evaluation forms could be disclosed
 without disclosing the raters' identities.  See, Id.
  [51] All information in documents withheld to protect the employees' privacy
 interests in their handwriting that are not otherwise exempt must be reproduced
 in a form that protects the employees' privacy interests and disclosed.
 Although the IRS must reproduce the documents, the Court believes (and the CST
 agrees) that the CST should bear all costs associated with reproducing the
 records.  See, 5 U.S.C. s 552(a)(4).
                               (3) Exemption 7(D)
  [52] Pursuant to Exemption 7(D), an agency may withhold records or
 information compiled for law enforcement purposes to the extent that
 disclosure "could reasonably be expected to disclose the identity of a
 confidential source ... which furnished information on a confidential basis,
 and in the case of a record or information compiled by criminal law enforcement
 authority in the course of a criminal investigation or by an agency conducting
 a lawful national security intelligence investigation, information furnished by
 a confidential source."  Exemption 7(D) contains two separate and distinct
 exemptions.  The first--"the identity of a confidential source ... which
 furnished information *1161 on a confidential basis"--exempts the identity
 of a confidential source.  See, 5 U.S.C. s 552(b)(7) (emphasis added);  See
 also, Providence Journal Co. v. U.S. Dept. of Army, 981 F.2d 552, 566 (1st
 Cir.1992).  The agency may withhold any portion of the document that would
 reveal the identity of the confidential source.  See, Pope v. United States,
 599 F.2d 1383, 1386 (5th Cir.1979).  The second--"in the case of a record or
 information compiled by criminal law enforcement authority in the course of a
 criminal investigation or by an agency conducting a lawful national security
 intelligence investigation, information furnished by a confidential source"--
 exempts not only the identity of the confidential source but also the
 information provided.  See, 5 U.S.C. s 552(b)(7) (emphasis added);  See
 also, Providence Journal Co., 981 F.2d at 566.  The IRS claims the documents
 withheld pursuant to Exemption 7(D) are exempt under the first exemption and
 release of any portion of the withheld records would reveal the identity of the
 confidential source;  therefore, the entire document is exempt.
  The agency must demonstrate the source provided information "under an
 express assurance of confidentiality or in circumstances from which such an
 assurance could be reasonably inferred."  Conf.Rep. No. 1380, 93d Cong., 2d
 Sess. 13, reprinted in 1974 U.S.C.C.A.N. 6267, 6269;  See also, Nadler,
 955 F.2d at 1484.  Congress enacted Exemption 7(D) to ensure that the FOIA did
 not impair federal law enforcement agencies' ability to gather information.
 See, Nadler, 955 F.2d at 1485.  It was intended to ensure sources are
 available to provide information for criminal investigations.  See, Irons v.
 FBI, 880 F.2d 1446, 1450-1451 (1st Cir.1989).
  [53][54][55][56] The agency is not required to demonstrate that it expressly
 assured confidentiality to a confidential source.  See, Pope, 599 F.2d at
 1386;  See also, Nadler, 955 F.2d at 1486-1487.  A court should also find an
 assurance of confidentiality where it is reasonable to infer such from the
 circumstances.  See, Pope, 599 F.2d at 1386, (quoting, H.Conf.Rep. No. 93-
 1380, 93d Cong., 2d Sess., p. 13, 1974 U.S.C.C.A.N. 6269);  Providence
 Journal Co., 981 F.2d at 563;  See also, Nadler, 955 F.2d at 1486;  Keys
 v. Department of Justice, 830 F.2d 337, 345 (D.C.Cir.1987).  The First and
 Tenth Circuits assume an assurance of confidence, either express or implied,
 when an individual gives information to a criminal law enforcement official
 unless the circumstances indicate otherwise.  See, Providence Journal Co.,
 981 F.2d at 565;  KTVY-TV, A Division of Knight-Ridder Broadcasting, Inc. v.
 United States, 919 F.2d 1465, 1470 (10th Cir.1990);  Johnson v. U.S. Dept.
 of Justice, 739 F.2d 1514, 1517 (10th Cir.1984).  It is irrelevant that the
 identity of the confidential source is known.  See, Radowich v. U.S. Atty.,
 Dist. of Maryland, 658 F.2d 957, 960 (4th Cir.1981).  Furthermore, the
 information and/or identity of the individual remains confidential subject to
 Exemption 7(D) after the investigation is concluded.  See, Pope, 599 F.2d
 at 1387;  KTVY-TV, 919 F.2d at 1471.
  [57] The documents and portions of documents containing the identity and
 information from confidential sources are not exempt under Exemption 7(D).  For
 example, the IRS withheld page 729 [FN20] described as:

      FN20. The IRS also withheld the page or portions thereof pursuant to
     Exemption 7(C).

   Page 729 is a handwritten routing slip dated 10/9/90 to Inspection employees
 regarding information received from a confidential source.
   Identities of lower level Service employees, employee handwriting, and
 reference to confidential source.
  The IRS justification states:
   The withheld document contains information received from a confidential
 source which was compiled by the Service during the course of its investigation
 of possible harassment of Service employees.  The release of this information
 could reasonably be expected to reveal the identity of the confidential source.
  The record was compiled for law enforcement purposes and contains the identity
 of a confidential source.  However, neither the justification nor the
 affidavits submitted in this case establish that the confidential informant
 furnished the information on a confidential basis.  Each justification for
 withholding documents under Exemption 7(D) *1162 contains the same flaw.
 Consequently, the IRS improperly withheld the documents under Exemption 7(D)
 and they must be disclosed unless otherwise exempt.
                               (4) Exemption 7(E)
  [58] Exemption 7(E) permits an agency to withhold records or
 information compiled for law enforcement purposes to the extent that
 disclosure "would disclose techniques and procedures for law enforcement
 investigations or prosecutions, or would disclose guidelines for law
 enforcement investigations or prosecutions if such disclosure could reasonably
 be expected to risk circumvention of the law."  Exemption 7(E) only applies to
 techniques, procedures and guidelines generally unknown to the public.  See,
 Hale, 973 F.2d at 902.  However, even if known by the public to some extent,
 they are nevertheless exempt "if disclosure of the circumstances of their use
 could lessen their effectiveness."  Id. at 902-903.
  [59] The IRS withheld pages 1673-1696 claiming they are exempt under a
 number of Exemptions.  Two of these pages, 1688-1689, it claims are exempt
 under Exemption 7(E).  The IRS describes pages 1676-1696 as:
   Pages 1673-1696 are handwritten notes, reports, messages, and Memorandums of
 Call dealing with the investigation regarding harassment of Service employees.
 These items were written by the inspector conducting the investigation, or by
 other Service personnel during the course of the investigation.  These pages
 contain various dates or are undated.
   Identities of lower level Service employees and third parties, employee
 handwriting, attorney-client communications, third party return information,
 information provided by a confidential source, and investigative techniques
 (pages 1688-1689).
  The IRS justification states:
   The document(s) was/were compiled for law enforcement purposes....
   The release of certain information contained in these law enforcement records
 would also disclose law enforcement techniques and procedures used in law
 enforcement investigation, which are not well known to the public.
  Although these are law enforcement records compiled for law enforcement
 purposes the production of which would disclose techniques and procedures used
 in law enforcement investigations and prosecutions, the IRS has not established
 that their disclosure could reasonably be expected to circumvent the law.
 Consequently, these pages are not exempt under Exemption 7(E) and the IRS must
 release them.
                                V. SEGREGABILITY
  [60][61][62] The IRS must also disclose "[a]ny reasonably segregable portion
 of a record ... after deletion of the portions which are exempt."  See, 5
 U.S.C. s 552(b);  See also, Schiller, 964 F.2d at 1209, (quoting, Mead
 Data Central, Inc. v. United States Dep't of Air Force, 566 F.2d 242, 260
 (D.C.Cir.1977)) ("By 1977, it had 'long been a rule in this Circuit that non-
 exempt portions of a document must be disclosed unless they are inextricably
 intertwined with exempt portions.' ")).  If a document cannot be segregated
 into exempt and non-exempt portions, the agency must state that it cannot and
 explain why it cannot.  See, Schiller, 964 F.2d at 1209-1210.  The only
 statement regarding segregability the IRS made for each withheld document
 was:  "The document cannot be segregated for partial release."  It did not
 explain why the document could not be segregated and released.  Without this
 information the Court is unable to determine de novo whether the document can
 or cannot be segregated.  The burden is on the agency to prove the document
 cannot be segregated for partial release.  The IRS has not met its burden and,
 consequently, must segregate all non-exempt portions and release them.
