(2) A description of the commercial information to be disclosed, sufficient to identify information to the submitter; and
(3) A date after which disclosure is expected, which shall be no less than 10 working days from the date of the letter providing notification to the submitter by the FOIA Office (§ 1206.601).
(c) The FOIA office will provide notification regarding a FOIA lawsuit:
