this exemption allows limited protection of investigative reports
maintained in a system of records used in personnel or administrative

Investigatory material compiled solely for the purpose of
determining suitability, eligibility, or qualifications for Federal
civilian employment, military service, Federal contracts, or access to
classified information may be exempt pursuant to 5 U.S.C. 552a(k)(5),
but only to the extent that such material would reveal the identity of

of the test or examination process may be exempt pursuant to 5 U.S.C.
552a(k)(6), if the disclosure would compromise the objectivity or
fairness of the test or examination process.
