Mr. Fernandes,

Your request is unclear to us in that the two subjects you ask for contradict each other.

Your first statement is for items “…in relation to the handling of FOIA that include 50 U.S.C. § 3024(i)(1),” while your second is for items which do not include 50 U.S.C. § 3024(i)(1).”

Additionally, are you asking for items which reference 50 U.S.C. § 3024(i)(1)? Or is there a specific topic/subject you are interested in?

We will not open your request until we hear back from you with additional clarification on what you are asking for.

Thank you,

DNI-FOIA

From: William Fernandes

Thanks for your prompt response, and attention to detail.

As stated.

Due to the FBI sending out FOIA statements related to THE DNI jurisdiction in writing. I would like any and all copies of any FOIA guidance provided to US Governmental Agencies by your organization during the time frame specified.

Due to the opportunity to provide records on a rolling basis, I thought giving you the options to segment the datasets when searched might make the processing and release of the request simple.

:)

Best,
