[Decision List No. 60]
Week of November 17 Through November 21, 1997
Appeal
Los Alamos Study Group, 11/19/97, [VFA-0346]
OHA granted in part an Appeal filed by the Los Alamos Study Group
(the Study Group) from a FOIA determination issued by the Albuquerque
Operations Office (Albuquerque). OHA remanded this matter because the
determination letter issued by Albuquerque was based upon: (1) A
misunderstanding of the scope of the Study Group's request for
classified documents, and (2) the incorrect assumption that the five
facilities named in the Study Group's FOIA request were located at Los
Alamos National Laboratory (LANL). OHA also found that the staff of the
DOE Los Alamos Area Office and LANL performed an adequate search for
responsive unclassified documents.
