Document Number (FOIA) /ESDN (CREST):
Body:
APPROVED FOR RELEASED
DATE: 02-08-2011
This is a final response to your 4 October 2010 Freedom of Information Act
(FOIA) request, received in the office of the Information and Privacy Coordinator on
4 October 2010, for records concerning "the movement for Papua's independence
from Indonesia."
We cannot accept your FOIA 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 and lack of specificity of your request, and the way in
which our records systems are configured, the Agency cannot conduct a reasonable search
for information responsive to your request. We encourage you to refine the scope of your
request (such as including a specific event, incident, or topic of the information you seek)
to enable us to conduct a reasonable search for responsive information.
Sincerely,
Scott Koch
Acting Information and Privacy Coordinator
