APPROVED FOR RELEASE^ DATE:
08-25-2010
On 14 May 2009, the office of the Information and Privacy Coordinator received your
5 May 2009 Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request for "a copy of any document at the
Central Intelligence Agency dated May 1961 and entitled `Israeli Intelligence Service in the
United States."' We have assigned your request the reference number above. Please use this
number when corresponding so that we can identify it easily.
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 FOIA. To the extent
your request seeks information that is subject to the FOIA, we accept your request and will
process it in accordance with the FOIA, 5 U.S.C. ? 552, as amended, an d the CIA Information
Act. We will search for records existing through the date of this acceptance letter.
Based on the information provided in your letter, we determined that your request falls
into the "all other" fee category, which means that you will be required to pay charges that
recover the cost of searching for and reproducing responsive records (if any) beyond the first 100
pages of reproduction and the first two hours of search time, which are free. Copies are ten cents
per page. We note your willingness to pay up to $30 for costs associated with this request.
The large number of FOIA requests CIA receives has created unavoidable delays making
it unlikely that we can respond within the 20 working days the FOIA requires. You have the right
to consider our honest appraisal as a denial of your request and you may appeal to the Agency
Release Panel. A more practical approach would permit us to continue processing your request
and respond to you as soon as we can. You will retain your appeal rights and, once you receive
the results of our search, can appeal at that time if you wish. We will proceed on that basis unless
you object.
Sincerely,
(:;Dtyo~ )X - 4"
