§ 103.13 - Segregability of records.

(a) Reasonably segregable portions. Where the record requested contains information which is exempt from disclosure under 5 U.S.C. 552(b) and §103.12, the reasonably segregable portions of the record shall be made available to the requester. For purposes of this section, the term “reasonably segregable portions” means those portions of the record: (1) Which are not exempt from disclosure by 5 U.S.C. 552(b) and §103.12; (2) which, after deletion of the exempt material, still convey meaningful and nonmisleading information; and (3) from which it can reasonably be assumed that a skillful and knowledgeable person could not reconstruct the exempt portions.

(b) Petitions by American manufacturers, producers, or wholesalers. Identifying data is not to be deleted from petitions filed by American manufacturers, producers, and wholesalers pursuant to section 516, Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (19 U.S.C. 1516). See part 175 of this chapter.
