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

Any and all documents detailing the conception, creation, implementation and/or final or ongoing analysis of the 'FAIRVIEW' program, as well as any other documents which refer to the program. Please include any and all emails, memos, Powerpoint presentations and reports mentioning the FAIRVIEW program since 1999, as well as any and all documents mentioning program director Craig Hicks.

In the event that the contents of the requested documents are classified under Executive Order 13526, I also make the following additional requests:

Pursuant to section 1.2 of Executive Order 13526, I am requesting the level of classification of this information and its existence/nonexistence.

Pursuant to section 1.3 of Executive Order 13526, I am requesting the specific authority which classified this information.

Pursuant to section 1.4 of Executive Order 13526, I am requesting the specific classification categories of this information, as well as an identification or description of the damage to national security which the disclosure of this information would produce.

Pursuant to section 1.5 of Executive Order 13526, I am requesting the specific duration of time for which this classification will stand.

Pursuant to section 1.6 of Executive Order 13526, I am requesting all classification markings about this information, including (1) one of the three classification levels defined in section 1.2 of Executive Order 13526, (2) the identity, by name and position, or by personal identifier, of the original classification authority, (3) the agency and office of origin, if not otherwise evident, (4) declassification instructions, and (5) a concise reason for classification that, at a minimum, cites the applicable classification categories in section 1.4 of Executive Order 13526.

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.

Mr. Jones,

FOIA Case 73652 is still in processing, and we expect to have correspondence sent out to you in the near future. Due to the significant increase in the number of requests being received by this Agency, as well as the government shutdown, we are experiencing delays in processing or responding.

I encourage you to submit future status checks via email using the FOIA Requester Service Center (RSC) address: foiarsc@nsa.gov<mailto:foiarsc@nsa.gov>. This will ensure that I receive your inquiry in a more timely manner. Additionally, status checks sent via MuckRock's fax format are often very difficult to read, which could cause delays in responding to your inquiry. I will be better able to decipher the specific email address that MuckRock has provided should you choose to utilize the NSA FOIA RSC.

Thank you for your patience,

Cindy Blacker
NSA/CSS FOIA Officer. POC
(301)688-6527
