Approved for Release: 2021/10/21 C06126533 Central Intelligence Agency Washington, D.C. 20505 3 December 2013 Mr. Grant F. Smith Director of Research Institute for Research: Middle Eastern Policy Calvert Station P.O. Box 32041 Washington, DC 20007 Reference: F-2010-01210 Dear Mr. Smith: We received your 19 September 2013 correspondence on 19 October appealing our 28 August 2013 final response to your Freedom of Information Act request for records "relating to uranium diversion from the Nuclear Materials and Equipment Corporation (NUMEC) to Israel." Please continue to use this case reference number so that we can more easily identify your appeal. You are appealing our denial of records responsive to your request. Your appeal has been accepted and arrangements are being made for its consideration by the Agency Release Panel. You will be advised of the panel's determination. In order to afford requesters the most equitable treatment possible, we have adopted the policy of handling appeals on a first-received, first-out basis. Despite our best efforts, however, the large number of public access requests CIA receives creates processing delays making it unlikely that we can respond to you within 20 working days. In view of this, some delay in our reply must be expected, but every reasonable effort will be made to respond as soon as possible. Sincerely, Michele Meeks Information and Privacy Coordinator Approved for Release: 2021/10/21 C06126533 Approved for Release: 2021/10/21 C06126533 Central Intelligence Agency Washington, D.C. 20505 IMS/IRRG/PIPDA 12 November 2013 Distribution: Orig - Adse 1 - PIPD/F-2010-01210 ACC (Ready for Process) FOL&1 01210 Smith F DIF ACC Approved for Release: 2021/10/21 C06126533
