Responsibility for responding to requests.

CFR · 2024-01-01 · US · Title 5

(a) (b) (1) FOIA case number and date of the original request; (2) The name(s) of any person responsible for the determination to deny the request in whole or in part; (3) A brief statement of the reason(s) for the denial, including any FOIA exemption applied in denying the request. The Chief FOIA Officer will indicate, if technically feasible, the amount of information deleted and the exemption under which a deletion is made on the released portion of the record, unless including that indication would harm an interest protected by the exemption; (4) An estimate of the volume of information withheld, if applicable. This estimate does not need to be provided if it is ascertainable based on redactions in partially disclosed records or if the disclosure of the estimate would harm an interest protected by an applicable FOIA exemption; and (5) A statement of the right to seek dispute resolution services from NCD's FOIA Public Liaison and the Office of Government Information Services. (c) (1) (2) (ii) Whenever the Council refers any part of the responsibility for responding to a request to another agency, it shall document the referral, maintain a copy of the record that it refers, and notify the requester of the referral and inform the requester of the name(s) of the agency to which the record was referred, including that agency's FOIA contact information.
