This is a request under the Freedom of Information Act. I hereby request the following records:
A log of all FOIA requests made in fiscal year 2013.

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.

Mr Smathers,
Thank you for following up on your FOIA request from December 20, 2013. I'm
not sure why I didn't get that one, but I do have the request dated January
10, 2014. I received it today. I understand your request to be "a log of
all FOIA requests made in fiscal year 2013."
Am I correct that you are requesting the log of requests received and
processed by my office for the Biometrics Identity Management Agency and not
all requests received by the Army?
Please verify that my interpretation is correct. I should be able to process
this fairly quickly after the clarification if my assumption is correct.
Otherwise, I'll need to forward this to the appropriate Army FOIA office for
processing.
Regards,
Dave
