(b) (2) (b) (3) (b) (6) APPROVED FOR RELEASE DATE: 29-Apr-2009 '17NOV 1993 This is further to our letter dated 22 September 1993 and concerns your 9 September 1993 Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request for "a copy of all files in [our] agency that may contain current address and/or information regarding the whereabouts" of Adnan Khashoggi-and Manucher Ghorbanifar. We have conducted a search of our database of previously released records and have located the enclosed records on Adnan Khashoggi consisting 134 pages. This material was originally located as a result of thorough and exhaustive searches conducted in our other records systems for information concerning Adnan Khashoggi on behalf of an earlier requester. Inasmuch as the FOIA neither authorizes nor requires us to perform research on behalf of a requester, it will be your responsibility to examine the documents to determine if information concerning your particular concerns is contained therein. No records on Manucher Ghorbanifar were located in our database of previously released records. We are, however, currently conducting searches in our other records systems for documents in existence as of 5 October 1992 on Manucher Ghorbanifar on behalf of an earlier requester. We will cross reference that portion of your request with the earlier one and send you the same releasable material, if any is located. Again, for the reason stated in paragraph 2 above, it will be your responsibility to determine if any information contained within the releasable documents (if any are located) applies to your specific concerns. You are entitled to receive 100 pages at no charge. Copying costs for additional pages are 10? per page. If material in addition to the enclosures is located and released to you, we will notify you of the total amount due. Please advise us immediately if you are unwilling to pay these costs. A copy of our schedule of fees is also enclosed. With respect to your request for a fee waiver, we have reviewed your request and have determined that since the enclosed material has been previously released to numerous requesters and is already in the public domain, its re-release would not contribute significantly to the public understanding of the operations and activities of the United States Government. It has also been determined that the additional information you seek would not contribute significantly to the public understanding of the operations and activities of the United States Government. Accordingly, your request for a fee waiver is denied and you will be required to pay fees as described above. We trust the enclosed information will be useful to you. 23 September 1993 Distribution: Orig - Adse 1 - Chrono 1 - F93-1813 ACK - XREF F92-0896, Peter Kornbluh
