Public Availability of Information
National Transportation Safety
Board (NTSB).
ACTION: Notice of proposed rulemaking.
AGENCY:
SUMMARY: The NTSB is proposing to
amend 49 Code of Federal Regulations
Jkt 211001
The NTSB seeks to amend § 801.1 in
order to clarify the NTSB’s
implementation of the provisions of the
Freedom of Information Act, and update
the relevant statutory citations.
Proposed Revision to § 801.2, Policy
The NTSB seeks to amend § 801.2 in
order to emphasize that persons seeking
information from the NTSB need not
submit a request under the FOIA, but
instead should first search for
information that is publicly available.
Although the NTSB makes ‘‘public
dockets’’ of investigative information
available to the public at the conclusion
of each investigation, the NTSB still
receives hundreds of FOIA requests
each year for the same or similar
information. Many FOIA requesters find
that the information they receive from
the NTSB, beyond that already in the
public docket, is not helpful to them.
Section 801.2 emphasizes this point and
encourages requesters to obtain the
public docket of investigative
information before they consider
submitting a FOIA request.
The NTSB seeks to amend § 801.3 in
order to update existing definitions, and
in order to include definitions for the
terms, ‘‘public docket’’ and ‘‘nondocket,’’ which are unique to the NTSB.

Applicability
Proposed Revision to § 801.3,
Definitions
NATIONAL TRANSPORTATION
SAFETY BOARD
VerDate Aug<31>2005
(CFR) Part 801, ‘‘Public Availability of
Information,’’ to include updated
information regarding the availability of
NTSB records. This amendment updates
the NTSB regulations that implement
the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA)
and Privacy Act, notifies the public of
changes in the NTSB’s Freedom of
Information Act processing procedures
and, in general, advises the public on
the availability of information from
NTSB accident investigations.
DATES: Submit comments on or before
December 22, 2006.
ADDRESSES: Mail comments concerning
this proposed rule to Gary L. Halbert,
General Counsel, National
Transportation Safety Board, 490
L’Enfant Plaza, SW., Washington, DC
20594–2000.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Gary
L. Halbert, (202) 314–6080.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Proposed Revision to § 801.10, General
The NTSB seeks to amend § 801.10 to
replace references to ‘‘Director, Bureau
of Administration’’ with ‘‘Chief, Records
Management Division.’’ The NTSB no
PO 00000
Frm 00057
Fmt 4702

longer has a Director, Bureau of
Administration.
In addition, the NTSB seeks to amend
§ 801.10 in order to update the deadline
by which the NTSB must respond to
requests for information under the
FOIA; Congress amended the FOIA in
1996 to expand the response deadline
from 10 working days to 20 working
days. 5 U.S.C. 552(a)(6)(A)(i). The
NTSB’s proposed amendment to
§ 801.10(b) reflects this change. In
updating this provision, however, the
NTSB notes that the FOIA does not
require an agency to search for records,
meet time deadlines, or release any
records until the agency has received a
FOIA request. A request for information
under the FOIA must comply with
published regulations before an agency
is required to consider it a proper FOIA
request.
The NTSB also seeks to amend
§ 801.10 to notify persons seeking
information that the NTSB will deny
requests for information related to an
ongoing investigation, in accordance
with the exemptions of the FOIA.
The other proposed amendments to
§ 801.10 clarify the general requirements
for submitting a FOIA request to the
NTSB.
Proposed Revision to § 801.11,
Segregability of Records
The NTSB seeks to amend § 801.11 in
order to update the title of the NTSB
employee who makes a segregability
determination. The amendments also
clarify the NTSB’s practice of
segregating exempt portions of a record
from non-exempt portions via redaction,
when possible.
Proposed Revision to § 801.12,
Protection of Records
The NTSB seeks to amend § 801.12 in
order to provide a cross-reference to
another relevant section within this
title, and to add to a quotation of 18
U.S.C. 641. In general, the NTSB intends
to retain the majority of this section as
the NTSB originally enacted it, in order
to cite the specific penalties that a
person will encounter if they attempt to
steal, alter, mutilate, obliterate, or
destroy an agency record.
Proposed Addition of § 801.20,
Processing of Records
The NTSB seeks to add § 801.20 to
this part, in order to notify persons
seeking information concerning the
NTSB FOIA Office’s ‘‘tracking’’ system
for processing requests. This system
allows the NTSB to process requests
more efficiently; rather than allowing a
complex, broad request to inhibit the
processing of simpler requests, the
