NATIONAL SECURITY AGENCY
CENTRAL SECURITY SERVICE
Fort George G. Meade, Maryland 20755-6000
Serial: J9014C
15 APR 1986
This responds to your letter of 7 March 1986 in which you further
narrowed your Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request for records
pertaining to Project Aquarius.
The document located in response to your request as stated in your
7 March letter has been reviewed by this Agency as required by the FOIA
and has been found to be currently and properly classified in accordance
with Executive Order 12356. This document meets the criteria for
classification as set forth in subparagraphs 2, 4, and 8 of section 1.3
and remains classified TOP SECRET as provided in section 1.1 of Executive
Order 12356. The document is classified because its disclosure could
reasonably be expected to cause exceptionally grave damage to the national
security. Because the document is currently and properly classified, it
is exempt from disclosure pursuant to the first exemption of the FOIA
(5 U.S.C. section 552(b) (1)).
In addition, this Agency is authorized by various statutes to protect
certain information concerning its activities. We have determined that
such information exists in this document. Accordingly, those portions are
also exempt from disclosure pursuant to the third exemption of the FOIA
which provides for the withholding of information specifically protected
from disclosure by statute. The specific statutes applicable in this case
are Title 18 U.S. Code 798; Title 50 U.S. Code 403(d) (3); and Section 6,
Public Law 86-36 (50 U.S. Code 402 "note").
No portion of the information is reasonably segregable.
Since your request has been denied, you are hereby advised of this
Agency's appeal procedures.
Any person denied access to information may, within 45 days after
notification of the denial, file an appeal to the NSA/CSS Freedom of
Information Act Appeal Authority. The appeal shall be in writing
addressed to the NSA/CSS FOIA Appeal Authority, National Security Agency,
Fort George G. Meade, MD 20755-6000. The appeal shall reference the
initial denial of access and shall contain, in sufficient detail and
particularity, the grounds upon which the requester believes release of
the information is required. The NSA/CSS Appeal Authority shall respond
to the appeal within 20 working days after receipt.
In your letter, you take exception to the amount requested by this
Agency for manpower and computer search fees to process your original
request for all information on Project Aquarius. Please be advised that
NSA search and duplication fees are computed in accordance with guidance
promulgated in sections 6-201 and 6-202 of Dod Directive 5400.7-R
Sincerely,
JULIA B. WETZEL
Director of Policy
