FOIA Control No. 2015-153
This letter responds to your Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request dated December
29, 2014 and received December 30, 2014, which was assigned the above FOIA control
number by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) FOIA Control Staff. The
FCC response is due February 4, 2014.
Your FOIA request seeks “a copy of the list or printout or database listing of IG
investigations closed during calendar year 2014.” The included spreadsheet is 2 printout

investigation, as well as the names of the investigators, have been redacted pursuant to
FOIA exemptions 6 and or 7. 5 U.S.C § 552 (b)(6),(7).
Under the FOIA, 5 U.S.C. § 552(a)(4)(A) and section 0.0470 of the Commission’s rules,
47 CER. § 0.470, we must charge FOIA requesters certain fees depending on the
classification of the requester into one of three categories defined in section 0.466 of the
Commission’s rules, 47 C.F.R. § 0.466. You have been classified as an “all other
requester” 47 CF. R. § 0.466(a)(8), responsible for “the full, reasonable direct cost of
searching for and reproducing records that are responsive to the request” excluding that
“the first 100 pages of reproduction and the first two hours of search time.” 47 CER. §
0.470(a)(3). The records in response to this FOIA constituted less than two hours of
search time and fewer than 100 pages; therefore, you will not be charged any fees.If you believe that this letter constitutes a denial of your request, you may file an
application for review with the FCC’s Office of General Counsel within 30 calendar days
of the date of this letter in accordance with section 0.461(j) of the Commission's rules, 47
CER. § 0.461().
