Dear Mr. Smith:
This is a final response to your 13 May 2010 Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request
for records "relating to uranium diversion from the Nuclear Materials and Equipment Corporation
(NUMEC) to Israel." We processed your request in accordance with the FOIA, 5 U.S.C. � 552, as
amended, and the CIA Information Act, 50 U.S.C. � 431, as amended. Our processing included a
search for records as described in our 10 September 2010 acceptance letter.
We completed a thorough search for records responsive to your request and located
material that we determined is currently and properly classified and must be denied in its entirety
on the basis of FOIA exemptions (b)(1) and (b)(3). An explanation of exemptions is enclosed.
Exemption (b)(3) pertains to information exempt from disclosure by statute. The relevant statute
is the Central Intelligence Agency Act of 1949, 50 U.S.C. � 403g, as amended, Section 6, which
exempts from the disclosure requirement information pertaining to the organization and functions,
including those related to the protection of intelligence sources and methods. As the CIA
Information and Privacy Coordinator, I am the CIA official responsible for this determination.
You have the right to appeal this response to the Agency Release Panel, in my care, within 45 days
from the date of this letter. Please include the basis of your appeal.
We conducted a search of our previously released database and located the enclosed four
documents, totaling 11 pages, which we believe may be responsive to your request. Please be
advised that these documents were released as part of another release program.
Enclosures
Sincerely,
Z.)
