requester's organization, certain fee and waiver information or the number of responsive pages that

were provided to a requester.

The OGE official responsible for these FOIA determinations is the undersigned. In

accordance with the FOIA, at 5 U.S.c. § 552(a)(6)(A), and OGE's FOIA regulations, at 5 c.F.R.

§ 2604.304, you may administratively appeal this partial denial of your request. The name and

address of the OGE official to whom such an appeal would have to be submitted are Don W. Fox,

General Counsel, Office of Government Ethics, Suite 500, 1201 New York Avenue, NW.,

of the date you receive this response. If you do appeal, you should include copies of your request
