To NRO IART:
This is a request under the Freedom of Information Act. I hereby request the following records:
A copy of the newest NRO's Review and Redaction Guide (i.e. 2010 or 2012 version). The 2008 version is posted on your website - but we have reason to believe that a newer copy exists.
I also request that, if appropriate, fees be waived as I believe this request is in the public interest. 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.
Sincerely,
Muckrock.com Editors

Mr. Smathers, the RRG was returned by subject matter reviewers with issues that required further review. Those issues have now been resolved (as of yesterday) and the case is being prepared for submission to the Office of General Counsel for final approval.
