Mrs. Patricia G. Norry -

2- June 12, 1985 As you know, the Freedom of Information Act requires that you respond within ten working days. In an effort to expe-dite Nuclear Regulatory Commission processing of this request, I would be willing to discuss specific instances of withholding, deletions or other exemption claims in advance of a final deci-sion by your agency.

If any portion of this request is denied, I would like a detailed statement of the reasons for withholding any document and an index or similar statement identifying the documents with-held. See Vaughn v. Rosen, 484 F.2d 820 (D.C. Cir. 1973), cert.

denied, 415 U.S. 977 (1974).

In accordance with your regulations and the FOIA, I agree to pay all reasonable search and copying charges upon pre-sentation of an invoice, along with the furnished documents. If the total charges will exceed $200.00, please advise me of the estimated expense before it is incurred.

Sincerely, Paul C. Reber i
