63 FR 66769: Proposed Amendments to the Office of Government Ethics Freedom of Information Act Regulation

December 3, 1998

The Office of Government Ethics is proposing to amend its rules under the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) primarily to effectuate various provisions under the 1996 Electronic FOIA Amendments. The proposed revisions include the new response time for FOIA requests, procedures for requesting expedited processing, additional categories of documents available in OGE's FOIA reading room facility, the availability of certain public information on OGE's Web site, and express inclusion of electronic records and automated searches along with paper records and manual searches. In addition, OGE's proposed amendments would increase the general FOIA search fees somewhat. Finally, OGE is proposing some other updating revisions and corrections. This rulemaking only deals with such matters at OGE; it is not an executive branchwide regulation.
