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. 

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 “thirdparty” 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 nonU.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 first-party 

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.
