Subject: Freedom of Information Act Request: Navy Band National Anthems Scores

Email

To Whom It May Concern:

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

The Full/Conductor Scores for the "National Anthems" recordings at https://www.navyband.navy.mil/media/ceremonial .

I would ask that all documents be released on a rolling basis as they become available.

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

I request a fee waiver, as making high-quality scores of national anthems available to the public will be beneficial to everyone who is interested in playing these scores, arranging them, and more.

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,

Aneesh Raghavan

Dear Ms. Raghaven:

The Department of the Navy received your Freedom of Information (FOIA)
/ Privacy Act (PA) request dated December 25, 2023 on December 25, 2023 and
placed it in queue for processing by order of receipt.

Due to the Navy’s internal transition to a new FOIA tracking system and
an increase in the volume of requests, you may experience an increase in
wait times.

Additionally, if unusual circumstances arise when processing your
request, a response within the statutory 20-day period may not be attainable
due to:

1. Collection and search for records from a facility outside of this
office.

2. Volume of records that may be responsive to your request.

3. Consultation with one or more agencies having a substantial interest in
the determination or the subject matter.

If one or more of these scenarios listed above apply to your request,
per the Department of the Navy FOIA/PA regulation 32 CFR §701.8(g)(2), this
office grants itself an extension of ten days response time.

We understand the importance of timely responses to FOIA requests and
apologize for any inconvenience this delay may cause. Thank you for your
patience.

Please direct questions to the FOIA Service Center by phone
