Dear R. M. Seibert,
I am writing in response to your Freedom of Information Act request of
April 4, 2019 for records in the custody of the National Archives and
Records Administration. Your request was received in this office on April
5, 2019 and assigned FOIA case number *RD 60886*.
You requested access to the file [Kuhl, Carolyn] Scientology (ARC ID

the Freedom of Information Act, there are no restrictions on access and the
entire box, including the file you requested, is open and available for
research at the National Archives at College Park, MD. The stack location
is: 230/902/99/4.
You mentioned you would not be able to view the records in person, so we
have attached a reproduction quote for the file as well as instructions on
payment. This quote will be valid for 90 days. Please be sure to send all

This is the finance dept. FOIA case numbers and/or details of your requests
are somewhat irrelevant to us. You should have received a quotation for
reproduction services with detailed instructions on submitting payment.
This form, quote number, is what's needed when placing your order.

Hi Nakisha,
I apologize if we did not submit this properly. It looks like we sent it to room 5500 when the address provided on the form was
National Archives Trust Fund, Accounts Receivable,
Form 72 Order, 8601 Adelphi Road, Room 5100, College Park, MD 20740-6001
Is that enough information to process this?
Thank you!
Kiera
From: National Archives And Records Administration – Archival Or Special Access
No, it isn't. The form where you obtained the Trust Fund address is what's
needed. The quote number is on that form.
