Your request for a waiver of fees has been denied for the enclosed material. Title 5, United States code, section 552 (a) (4) (A) that documents shall be furnished without charge or at a reduced charge if disclosure of the information is in the public interest because it is likelytqv contribute significantly to public understanding of the operations or activities of the government. Following a careful review of the enclosed documents we have concluded that the releasable Information does not specifically contribute to an understanding of government operations or activities with a connection that is direct and clear. A decision regarding the remaining material will be made at the time of processing. Our decision on this matter is based on the statutory standard and the fee waiver guidelines issued by the Department of Justice, a copy of which is enclosed.

Pursuant to Title 28, Code of Federal Regulations, Sections 16.11 and 16.49, there is a fee of ten cents per page for duplication. The first 100 pages are free. Accordingly, duplication fees incurred by you total $130.10. Your check or money order, payable to the Federal Bureau of investigation in the amount of $130.10 Is due upon receipt of this communication. )

Failure to pay for this interim release will close your current request as well as any pending FBI FOIA requests from you. Non-payment will also cause an automatic denial of any future FOIA requests.

Department of Justice Fee Waive* Regulations

StCft $16.10 (7-1-90 Edition)

<d) Waiver or reduction of fees. (1) Records responsive to * request under 6 VAC. fr32 shall be furnished with-put charr* or at a charge reduced below th»t established under part* graph (b) «f thlt section where a com* ponent determines, based upon infor* matlon provided by a requester In «up« port of a iee waiver request or other* wise made known to the component, that disclosure of the requested Infor­mation is In the public interest be­cause it is likely tg. contribute signifi­cantly to p$$ms underatandinir of the operations or activities of the govern­ment and 1* not primarily in the com­ttjilreial Interest of the requester. Re­quests for * waiver or reduction of fees shall be considered on a case-by-case basis.

(2) In order to determine whether the first iee waiver requirement is met—ic that disclosure of the re­quested information Is In the public interest because it Is likely to contrib­ute significantly to public understand­ing of the operations or activities of the government—components shall consider the following four factors in sequence:

(1) The subject of the request Wheth­er the subftct of the requested records concern* "the operations or activities of the pctxrnmcnL" The subject matter of the requested records. In the context of the request, must specifical­ly concern identifiable operations or activities of the federal government— with a connection that is direct and clear, not remote or attenuated. Fur­thermore, the records must be sought for their informative value with re­spect to those government operations or activities; a request for access to records for their intrinsic information­al content alone will not satisfy this threshold consideration,

<li) the ipjlprvuittpt value of the in­formation to fomectosed; Whether the disclosure U "likely to contribute" to an understanding of governrruent oper­ations or activities. Ti e iMfcclosable portions of the requested records must be meinjbigfully informative on specif­ic government operations or activities in order to hold potential for contrib­uting to increased public understand* ing of those operations and activities. The disclosure of information that al­ready is in the public domain, in either a duplicative or a substantially identi­cal form, would not be likely to con* tribute • to such understanding, as nothing hew would be added to the public record

(111) The contribution to an under' standing of the subject by the public likely to result from disclosure: Wheth*

er disclosure of the requested informa­tion wUl contribute to "public under­itandinp." The disclosure must con* tribute to the understanding of the public at large, as opposed to the indi­vidual understanding of the requester or a narrow segment of interested per* sons. A requester's Identity and quail* fications—eg., expertise in the subject area and ability and intention to effec­tively convey information to the gen­eral public—should be considered. It reasonably may be presumed that a representative of the news media (as defined in paragraph <JX8> of this sec­tion) who has access to the means of public dissemination readily will be able to misfy this consideration. Re­quests from libraries or other record repositories (or requesters who intend merely to disseminate information to such Institutions) shall be analyzed, like those of other requesters, to iden­tify a particular person who repre­sents that he actually will use the re­quested information In scholarly or other analytic work and then dissemi* nate it to the general public.

<lv> The significance of the contribu­tion to public understanding: Whether the disclosure is likely to contribute "significantly" to public understand­ing of government operations or oc* Hvities. The public's understanding of the subject matter in question, as com­pared to the level of public under­standing existing' prior to the disclo­sure, must be likely to be enhanced by the disclosure to a significant extent. Components shall not make separate value judgments as to whether infor­mation, even though it in fact would contribute significantly to public un­derstanding of the operations or ac­tivities of the government, is "impor­tant" enough to be made public

(3) In order to determine whether the second fee waiver requirement b met—ie., that disclosure of the re* quested information is not primarily in the commercial Interest of the re* quester—component* shall consider the following two factor* In sequence;

(1) 77x existence and magnitude of a commercial interest Whether the rt* Quester has a (xmmereUU interest that vould be furthered by the requested disclosure Components shall consider all commercial interests of the re­

quester (with reference to the defini* tion of "commercial use" in paragraph (j)(5) of this section), or any person on whose behalf the, requester may be acting, but shall consider only those interests which would be furthered by the requested disclosure. In assessing the magnitude of identified commer­cial interests, consideration shall be given to the role that such FOIA-dis-closed information plays with respect to those commercial interests, » well as to the extent to which FOIA disclo­sure* serve those interests overall. Re­questers shall be given a reasonable opportunity in the administrative process to provide information bearing upon/this consideration.

(i$ The primary interest iji disclo­sure,* Whether the magnitude of the identified wmnierci^tiiicr&t of the requester U sufficiency MiM* in com­parison with the public £ip|rp«%i :<*£j­

that 0 M i

warrantei., . ^ r ^ i ^ "public interest*' ttyiwiar^tou t in paragraph (d)(2) of this section is sat. isfied, that public Interest tin fairly be regarded as greater in magnitude than that of the requester's commtr­daf interest in disclosure. Components shall ordinarily presume that, where a news media requester h&s satisfied the "public Interest" standard, that will be the interest primarily served by disclo­sure to that requester. Disclosure to data brokers or others who compile and market government information for direct economic return shall not be presumed to primarily serve the •'public interest,*'

(4) #her* only a portion of the re­quested records satisfies both of the requirements for a waiver or reduction of fees under this paragraph, a waiver or reduction shall be granted only as to that portion. - (5) Requests for the waiver or reduc­

tion of fees shall address each of the factors listed in paragraph <d> (2) and (3) of this section, as they apply to each record request.
