Abstract
In the October 21, 2002, Federal Register, the Department of the Interior (DOI) revised its regulations implementing the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA). This amendment adds four offices under the Office of Hearings and Appeals (OHA) that were inadvertently omitted in Appendix A, which provides a list of the Department's FOIA resources. This amendment also adds the requirement that bureaus notify requesters of their appeal rights when referring documents to another agency for a release determination, which was inadvertently omitted from section 2.22(b)(2), and makes several other editorial changes.
