Reference: F-2010-00456
Dear
On 12 January 2010, the office of the Information and Privacy Coordinator received
your Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request dated 4 January 2010 for all information
pertaining to "Heather Hagen Stemler, Mark Stemler, and Marvin Douglas Schumacer."
We assigned this portion of your letter the reference number above; please use this number
when corresponding about this request. The portion of your request concerning yourself will
be treated in separate correspondence under reference number P-2010-00271.
We need as much identifying information as possible before we can effectively
search our files for information on an individual. Please provide us with each subject's full
name, date and place of birth, and citizenship status. Without this data, we may be unable to
distinguish between individuals with the same or similar names. If the person is deceased,
we require some evidence of death, such as a death certificate, an obituary, or press
statement.
Agency regulations encourage requesters seeking information on living third parties
to provide a signed affidavit or declaration from the third parties waiving all or some of their
privacy rights. We can search without this authorization, but if we locate responsive records,
privacy concerns may require us to protect the information from release.
FOIA exemption (b)(6), a copy of which I have enclosed for your reference and
retention, requires us to protect information "the disclosure of which would constitute a
clearly unwarranted invasion of personal privacy." In reaching this determination, we use
the test our enclosed regulations outline at 32 CFR � 1900.32(b): "the Agency will balance
the privacy interests that would be compromised by disclosure against the public interest in
release of the requested information." Therefore, the waiver will assist us with this
determination.

For your information, the FOIA authorizes federal agencies to collect fees for records
services. You will note on the enclosed fee schedule that we charge search fees, including
computer time where indices are computerized, and copying costs for releasable documents.
Search fees are assessable, and you will be charged, even if our search results are negative or
if we determine that no information is releasable under the FOIA.
Based on the information provided in your letter, we determined that your request
falls into the "all other" fee category. This means that you will be required to pay charges
that recover the cost of searching for and reproducing responsive records (if any) beyond the
first 100 pages of reproduction and the first two hours of search time, which are free. Copies
are ten cents per page.
Before we can accept your request we must receive the required biographic
information, citizenship status, privacy waivers, proof of death, if applicable, and your
commitment to pay fees as described above. Meanwhile, we will hold your request in
abeyance for 45 days from the date of this letter pending receipt of your response.
Sincerely,
Enclosures
