The CIA Information Act, 50 U.S.C. ? 431, as amended, exempts CIA operational files from the search, review, publication, and disclosure requirements of the Freedom of Information Act. To the extent your request seeks information that is subject to the FOIA, the Agency cannot accept this request, in its current form, because it would require the Agency to perform an unreasonably burdensome search. The FOIA requires requesters to "reasonably describe" the information they seek so that professional employees familiar with the subject matter can locate responsive information with a reasonable amount of effort. Because of the breadth, vagueness, and lack of specificity of your request, and the way in which the Agency configures its records systems that are subject to the FOIA, the Agency cannot conduct a reasonable search for information responsive to your request.
