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 ODNI's Vulnerabilities Equities Process guidelines for determining public release or vulnerabilities.
A copy of any organization charts or rosters that indicate the parties involved with the Vulnerabilities Equities Process.
The Vulnerabilities Equities Process was publicly disclosed by the ODNI here:
http://icontherecord.tumblr.com/post/82416436703/statement-on-bloomberg-news-story-that-nsa-knew
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.

A no responsive documents response.
From: Michael Morisy
Hi,
I appeal this decision. In the ICOnTheRecord blog post cited in my initial request, the following statement is made:
"In response to the recommendations of the President’s Review Group on Intelligence and Communications Technologies, the White House has reviewed its policies in this area and reinvigorated an interagency process for deciding when to share vulnerabilities. This process is called the Vulnerabilities Equities Process."
Given that this is an interagency process ODNI is involved with, it is reasonable to believe that some documentation regarding ODNI's role exists. While some or most of the VEP documentation might reside under the Executive Office of the President, other documentation must exist within ODNI in order for it to coordinate its part in this interagency process.
Please search for and release such documents.
Thanks,
Michael
