Dear FOIA Requester:
The FOIA Improvement Act of 2016, which was enacted on June 30, 2016, made several changes to the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA). Federal agencies must revise their FOIA regulations to reflect those changes by December 27, 2016. In addition to revising our regulations, we intend to update the Form 464, which we use to respond to FOIA requests.
In the interim, please see the comment box in Part I.C of the attached Form 464. The comment box includes information related to the recent changes to FOIA that is applicable to your FOIA request, including an updated time period for filing an administrative appeal with the NRC.

Emails from May 19, 2016
- Jennene, ML16201A086, ML16201A095, ML16201A093 and ML16201A100 are emails that I sent on May 19, 2016 and placed in ADAMS yesterday. I have added the following sentence to the Comments field of their ADAMS profiles:
This document was placed in ADAMS on 2016-July-19 so that it could be referenced in public comments concerning an NRC report.
Attached is the documentation of the SUNSI review. There is no sensitive information in any of the four documents. ML16201A093 concerns a publicly released MOU between the ACRS and the USACE. ML16201A086 concerns a FOIA request and appeal. ML16201A095 pertains to the agency's practices for controlling access to SUNS!. ML16201A100 concerns the failure of the upper reservoir of the Taum Sauk pump storage stating outside Lesterville, MO on December 14, 2005 and the resultant flooding that occurred.
Please call me if you have any questions.

ML16200A049 Attachments: image2016-07-20-192330.pdf
- Jennene, I placed ML16200A049 in ADAMS two days ago. I need it to be an official agency record so that I can reference it in public comments I am making on the NRC Chairman's response to the Office of Special Counsel.
Attached is the SUNSI review.
The document was originated by Donna Sealing (who's retired). It is a letter she sent to a member of the public in which she gave an agency position on "Official Use Only" information. Although this letter is currently in the public domain, it is not in ADAMS. It was official correspondence written in response to a FOIA request. The version I have of it was used in a FOIA Appeal. I dlo not have the original version of the record.
I added the following sentence to the document's comments:
This document was placed in ADAMS on 2016-July-18 so that it could be referenced in public comments concerning an NRG report.
Please give me a call if you have any questions.
- Thanks, Larry 573-230-3959
