Mr. Donald Vance
Reference: F-2013-00508
Dear Mr. Vance:
This is a final response to your undated Freedom of Information Act (FOIA)
request, postmarked 26 December 2012, received in the office of the Information and
Privacy Coordinator on 3 January 2013, for "any and all records pertaining to reports
developed by the CIA pertaining to the government leaders of Indonesia during the time
period of 1957 and 1959."
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. Commonly this equates to a requirement
that the documents must be locatable through the indexing of our various systems.
Extremely broad or vague requests or requests requiring research do not satisfy this
requirement.
Sincerely,
Michele Meeks
Information and Privacy Coordinator
