The Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) Program is mandated
by Congress and applies to all governmental agencies. The program
allows the public to request information pertaining to an agency's
functions, practices, and future plans. Anyone may request records
under the FOIA. Public disclosure is mandatory unless exempted
under Title 5 U.S.C. 552. In accordance with the Electronic
Freedom of Information Act Amendments of 1996, agencies have 20 work
days to respond to a FOIA request. As a general rule, the Air
Force will not deliver unofficial mass mailings addressed to individuals
at their duty addresses. |
