IN RE CARTER W. PAGE,
A U.S. PERSON

Docket Nos: 16-1182, 17-52, 17-375,
17-679

## ORDER REGARDING FURTHER DISCLOSURES OF INFORMATION

The government has reported disclosures of information acquired by electronic
surveillance and physical search conducted under the above-captioned dockets ("Page FISA
information") to the United States Attorney's Office for the Eastern District of Missouri (USAO-
MOE) and the United States Attorney's Office for the District of Columbia (USAO-DC). See
Third Supplemental Resp. to the Ct.'s Order Dated Jan. 7, 2020, Nos. 16-1182, 17-52, 17-375,
17-679, at 4-12 (Oct. 21, 2020). It has also described actual and anticipated disclosure of such
information to the Senate Committee on the Judiciary. See id. at 18-19.

The Court conducted a hearing regarding the disclosures to the USAO-MOE and USAO-
DC on November 6, 2020. On November 13, 2020, the government reported to the Court the
steps it is taking to ensure that the USAO-MOE and USAO-DC either destroy materials in their
possession that contain Page FISA information or return them to the Federal Bureau of
Investigation. See Letter, Nos. 16-1182, 17-52, 17-375, 17-679, at 1-3 (Nov. 13, 2020). Should
the USAO-MOE or USAO-DC seek renewed access to such materials thereafter, it will seek
Court approval before obtaining them from the FBI. See id. at 4.

The Court finds those measures, and the government's timetable for implementing them,
to be reasonable. It also finds disclosure of Page FISA information to the Senate Committee on
the Judiciary, under the circumstances described by the government, to be consistent with the
parameters for disclosure previously established by the Court. See Op. and Order Regarding Use
and Disclosure of Information, Nos. 16-1182, 17-52, 17-375, 17-679, at 20-21 (FISA Ct. June
25, 2020).

Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED as follows:

(1) The government shall take the steps described in the November 13, 2020, Letter to
dispossess the USAO-MOE and USAO-DC of Page FISA information;

(2) By December 21, 2020, the government shall report to the Court in writing regarding
the completion of those steps; and

(3) The USAO-MOE and USAO-DC shall not access materials returned to the FBI, as
described in the November 13, 2020, Letter, without the prior approval of the Court.

ENTERED this 23 day of November, 2020.
