From: Michael Morisy

To Whom It May Concern:

This is a request under the Freedom of Information Act. I hereby request the following records:

A copy of the report "The Behavior of Non-Persistent Gas Clouds Released from Bombs in the Targhee National Forest, December 1943."

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,

Michael Morisy

Hi,

You state:

"Unfortunately, the report's distribution is limited to governmental agencies only. Therefore, we cannot release this report to you."

I don't quite understand this response. Is there a FOIA exemption you can cite? "For Internal Use Only" isn't one, as far as I know. I'd like to proceed by processing the request as normally, and either receiving the documents or knowing under which of the FOIA Exemptions they are properly withheld.

Thanks again for your help clarifying, and apologies if I misunderstand your response.

- Michael

Hello Mr. Morisy:

Your request (FP-11-041210 & FA-11-0044) was processed on 27 September 2011.
You objected to those findings and we clarified on 24 October 2011. In both
letters you were notified that the requested documents could not be released
from this office and had been forwarded to the Initial Denial Authority
(IDA) for review and release determination. We also informed you that all
future contact would come from that office.

You were also informed that the IDA will contact you about these articles
after they have been reviewed for declassification. You should know that
this process is potentially lengthy and a response can take quite some time.
If you want to follow-up with your request please email Ms. Fortune at
latricia.c.fortune.civ@mail.mil. The mailing address for the IDA is the
following:
