UNITED STATES NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION WASHINGTON, D.C. 20555-0001 Julian Tarver Washington State Penitentiary IMU North 1313 N 13th Ave Walla Walla, WA 99362
Dear Mr. Tarver,
IN RESPONSE REFER TO:
NRC-2018-000335 Appeal of NRC 2018 000032 On behalf of the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC), I am responding to your letter dated 01/26/18, in which you appealed the agency's decision related to your Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request NRC 2018 000032, which was seeking all reports of lost radioactive items from Hanford, date range 2015-current date. Specifically, you appealed the search performed and denial of information.
Acting on your appeal, I have considered the issue raised in your appeal. As stated in our final response to NRC 2018- 000032 to you, several.NRC program offices conducted another thorough search but were unable to find records responsive to your request. Therefore, your appeal is being denied.
This is the final agency decision. As set forth in the FOIA (5 U.S.C. 552(a)(4)(B)), you can seek judicial review of this decision in a district court *of the United States in the district in which you reside or have your principal place of business, in the district where the agency's records are situated, or in the District of Columbia.
J As part of the 2007 FOIA amendments, the Office of Government Information Services (OGIS) was created to offer mediation services to resolve disputes between FOIA requesters and Federal agencies as a nonexclusive alternative to litigation. Using OGIS services does not affect your right to pursue litigation. If you are requesting access to your own records (which is considered a Privacy Act request), you should know that OGIS does not have the authority to handle requests made under the Privacy Act of 1974.
Julian Tarver You may contact OGIS in any of the following ways:
