APPROVED FOR RELEASED
DATE: 02-08-2011
On 14 October 2010, the office of the Information and Privacy Coordinator
received your undated Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request for records regarding
"Budget requests for the CIA's Political Islam Strategic Analysis Program (PISAP)
for Fiscal years 2010 and 2011." 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, and
the CIA Information Act. We will search for records existing through the date of this
acceptance letter. As a matter of administrative discretion, and in accordance with our
regulations, the Agency has waived the fees for 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,
 Acting Information and Privacy Coordinator
