II. MAKING A FOIA REQUEST 

1. Agency components1 that receive FOIA requests. 

Federal Election Commission 

FOIA Requester Service Center

1050 First Street, NE 

Washington, DC 20463 

1 Please note that because the Commission is a small agency, the entire agency is considered to be one component (as 

opposed to individual divisions). 
 2. Brief description of why some requests are not granted and an overview of 

 certain general categories of the agency’s records to which the FOIA exemptions apply. 

The Federal Election Commission (FEC) is an independent regulatory agency with jurisdiction over the financing of campaigns 

in federal elections (that is, those for President and Vice President of the United States, United States Senator, and United States 

Representative). It also administers the public financing program for Presidential elections. The Commission enforces the limits on 

the sources and amounts of contributions to candidates for federal office, reviews the registration and periodic reports filed by political 

committees supporting federal candidates, and publicly discloses those reports.

(202) 219-1043 (fax number) 

foia@fec.gov (email address) 

By far, the most frequent reason requests are denied at the FEC is that the agency has no responsive records. Some FOIA 

requesters do not clearly understand the limits on the agency’s jurisdiction and ask for documents that the Agency does not maintain, 

such as information pertaining to state or local elections, voter registration and voter turnout information, and information regarding 

the qualifications of candidates. Other documents are not released because the release of information concerning the Agency’s open 

enforcement cases and conciliation efforts in enforcement matters is prohibited from disclosure by the Federal Election Campaign 

Act. See 52 U.S.C. §§ 30109(a)(4)(B) (conciliation), 30109(a)(12) (open enforcement matters). Consequently, this material is 

exempt from disclosure under FOIA Exemption 3. 

Other FOIA exemptions that often apply to FEC records include, but are not limited to: 

a) Inter-agency or intra-agency communications that are protected by the deliberative process, attorney-client, or attorney 

work-product privileges (Exemption 5); and 
b) Information involving matters of personal privacy (Exemptions 6 and 7I). 

III. ACRONYMS, DEFINITIONS, AND EXEMPTIONS 

1. Agency-specific acronyms or terms used in this Report. 

a. FEC – Federal Election Commission 

b. FECA – Federal Election Campaign Act 

2. Definitions of terms used in this Report: 

a. Administrative Appeal – a request to a federal agency asking that it review at a higher administrative 

level a FOIA determination made by the agency at the initial request level. 

b. Average Number – the number obtained by dividing the sum of a group of numbers by the quantity of 

numbers in the group. For example, of 3, 7, and 14, the average number is 8. 

c. Backlog – the number of requests or administrative appeals that are pending at an agency at the end of 

the fiscal year that are beyond the statutory time period for a response. 

d. Component – for agencies that process requests on a decentralized basis, a “component” is an entity, 

also sometimes referred to as an Office, Division, Bureau, Center, or Directorate, within the agency that 

processes FOIA requests. The FOIA now requires that agencies include in their Annual FOIA Report data 

for both the overall agency and for each principal component of the agency. 

e. Consultation – the procedure whereby the agency responding to a FOIA request first forwards a record 

to another agency for its review because that other agency has an interest in the document. Once the 

agency in receipt of the consultation finishes its review of the record, it responds back to the agency that 

forwarded it. That agency, in turn, will then respond to the FOIA requester. 
f. Exemption 3 Statute – a federal statute that exempts information from disclosure and which the agency 

relies on to withhold information under subsection (b)(3) of the FOIA. 

g. FOIA Request – a FOIA request is generally a request to a federal agency for access to records 

concerning another person (i.e., a “third-party” request), or concerning an organization, or a particular 

topic of interest. FOIA requests also include requests made by requesters seeking records concerning 

themselves (i.e., “first-party” requests) when those requesters are not subject to the Privacy Act, such as 

non-U.S. citizens. Moreover, because all first-party requesters should be afforded the benefit of both the 

access provisions of the FOIA as well as those of the Privacy Act, FOIA requests also include any firstparty requests where an agency determines that it must search beyond its Privacy Act “systems of 

records” or where a Privacy Act exemption applies, and the agency looks to FOIA to afford the greatest 

possible access. All requests which require the agency to utilize the FOIA in responding to the requester 

are included in this Report. 

Additionally, a FOIA request includes records referred to the agency for processing and direct response 

to the requester. It does not, however, include records for which the agency has received a consultation 

from another agency. (Consultations are reported separately in Section XII of this Report.) 

h. Full Grant – an agency decision to disclose all records in full in response to a FOIA request. 

i. Full Denial – an agency decision not to release any records in response to a FOIA request because the 

records are exempt in their entirety under one or more of the FOIA exemptions, or because of a 

procedural reason, such as when no records could be located. 

j. Median Number – the middle, not average, number. For example, of 3, 7, and 14, the median number is 

7. 

k. Multi-Track Processing – a system in which simple requests requiring relatively minimal review are 

placed in one processing track and more voluminous and complex requests are placed in one or more 

other tracks. Requests granted expedited processing are placed in another track. Requests in each track 

are processed on a first in/first out basis. 
i. Expedited Processing – an agency will process a FOIA request on an expedited basis when 

a requester satisfies the requirements for expedited processing as set forth in the statute and 

in agency regulations. 

ii. Simple Request – a FOIA request that an agency using multi-track processing places in its 

fastest (non-expedited) track based on the low volume and/or simplicity of the records 

requested. 

iii. Complex Request – a FOIA request that an agency using multi-track processing places in a 

slower track based on the high volume and/or complexity of the records requested. 

l. Partial Grant/Partial Denial – in response to a FOIA request, an agency decision to disclose some 

portions of the records and to withhold others that are exempt under the FOIA, or to otherwise deny a 

portion of the request for a procedural reason. 

m. Pending Request or Pending Administrative Appeal – a request or administrative appeal for which an 

agency has not taken final action in all respects. 

n. Perfected Request – a request for records which reasonably describes such records and is made in 

accordance with published rules stating the time, place, fees (if any) and procedures to be followed. 

o. Processed Request or Processed Administrative Appeal – a request or administrative appeal for 

which an agency has taken final action in all respects. 

p. Range in Number of Days – the lowest and highest number of days to process requests or 

administrative appeals. 

q. Time Limits – the time period in the statute for an agency to respond to a FOIA request (ordinarily twenty 

working days from receipt of a perfected FOIA request). 

3. Concise descriptions of the nine FOIA exemptions. 

a. Exemption 1: classified national defense and foreign relations 
 

information. 

b. Exemption 2: internal agency rules and practices related to personnel 

 matters. 

c. Exemption 3: information that is prohibited from disclosure by a federal 

 statute other than the FOIA. 

d. Exemption 4: trade secrets and privileged or confidential business 

information. 

e. Exemption 5: inter-agency or intra-agency communications that are 

 protected by legal privileges. 

f. Exemption 6: information involving matters of personal privacy. 

g. Exemption 7: records or information compiled for law enforcement 

purposes, to the extent that the production of those records (A) could 

reasonably be expected to interfere with enforcement proceedings; (B) would deprive a person of a right 

to a fair trial or an impartial adjudication; (C) could reasonably be expected to constitute an unwarranted 

invasion of personal privacy; (D) could reasonably be expected to disclose the identity of a confidential 

source; I would disclose techniques and procedures for law enforcement investigations or prosecutions, 

or would disclose guidelines for law enforcement investigations or prosecutions; or (F) could reasonably 

be expected to endanger the life or physical safety of any individual. 

h. Exemption 8: information that is contained in or related to examination, 

operations, or condition reports prepared by, or on behalf of, an 

agency for the regulation or supervision of a financial institution. 

i. Exemption 9: geological and geophysical information and data 

 including maps, concerning wells.
