To Whom It May Concern:

Pursuant to the Freedom of Information Act, I hereby request the following records:

I am requesting the logo or emblem created for all NROL launch missions.

I request that all files be released a vector file format like a high quality PDF, an SVG or EPS. The question of whether such files can be released has already been decided by your office. This should not require the agency to create a new record. This type of file format is how the logo must have been initially created by or for the government. An appeal decision in a previous FOIA case for the NROL-39 logo concluded that these records are in the public domain and must be released. The appeal case number with the National Reconnaissance Office was F-2019-00113. You can read the decision at https://www.muckrock.com/foi/united-states-of-america-10/nrol-39-mission-logo-78740/#file-817847

I am requesting the release for all missions listed on the following wikipedia page: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_NRO_launches If you need any clarification or further enumeration, please let me know.

The requested documents will be made available to the general public, and this request is not being made for commercial purposes.

In the event that there are fees, 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,

Ben Welsh

Dear Mr. Zinngrabe,

We received your recent FOIA request dated 11 October 2022 for: "Requesting the logo or emblem created for all NROL launch missions. Request that all files be released a vector file format like a high quality PDF, an SVG or EPS."

We have assigned tracking number F-2023-00005 to your request. We will limit our search to NRO-originated records.

Since we may be unable to provide a response within the 20 working days stipulated by the Act, you have the right to consider this a denial and may appeal on this basis to the NRO Appellate Authority, 14675 Lee Road, Chantilly, VA 20151-1715 after the initial 20 working day period has elapsed; doing so, however, would exhaust your administrative appeal rights. To preserve these rights, we recommend that you allow us sufficient time to continue processing your request and respond as soon as we can. You will then have the right to appeal any denial of information after you receive a final response from us. Unless we hear otherwise from you, we will assume that you agree and will continue processing your FOIA requests on this basis.

The FOIA authorizes federal agencies to assess fees for record services. Based on the information provided, you have been placed in the "other" category of requesters. Requesters in this category are responsible for the cost of search time exceeding two hours ($48.00/hour) and duplication fees ($.15 per page) exceeding 100 pages. Additional information about fees can be found in the Department of Defense Fees section of the electronic Code of Federal Regulations (e-cfr) at https://ecfr.io/title-32/se232.2.286.112.

If you have any questions, please email FOIA@NRO.mil <mailto:FOIA@NRO.mil> or call the Requester Service Center at 703-745-0600.
