Agreements with the FBI's DITU (Department of Homeland Security -- fwd to CBP)

To Whom It May Concern:

This is a request under the Freedom of Information Act. I hereby request the following records:

All MOU/MOA (Memoranda of Understanding/Agreement) or other agreements between your agency and the FBI where the agreement allows you access to any data collected by the FBI's DITU (The Data Intercept Technology Unit).

I also request that, if appropriate, fees be waived as I believe this request is in the public interest. The requested documents will be made available to the general public free of charge as part of the public information service at MuckRock.com, processed by a representative of the news media/press and is made in the process of news gathering and not for commercial usage.

In the event that fees cannot be waived, I would be grateful if you would inform me of the total charges in advance of fulfilling my request. I would prefer the request filled electronically, by e-mail attachment if available or CD-ROM if not.

Thank you in advance for your anticipated cooperation in this matter. I look forward to receiving your response to this request within 20 business days, as the statute requires.

Sincerely,

Jason Smathers

I appeal. I have no commercial interests in this request. I am communicating with you directly using the Muckrock email system. I am not paying anyone to make this request for me. I have no plans or agreement to sell the information and I am not making this request on behalf of anyone else. I make this request personally for non commercial use. I may use the results in a news media story, but am not yet certain. For this reason, I will not argue for news media billing on this specific request. However I do appeal the commercial fee category.

The FBI's Data Intercept Technology Unit (DITU) collects data for national security and law enforcement use. You can limit the search to components of DHS which would share in the mission of law enforcement and the identification of threats to national security.
