RECORD ACCESS PROCEDURES:

Individuals are not allowed to access their information through the LEIMARS
database. Although access to the system may be denied, any person, including U.S. citizens, foreign nationals, organizations, universities, businesses, and state and local governments, can file a Freedom of Information Act FOIA request to acquire copies of records of the system. Federal employees may not use government time or equipment when requesting information under the FOIA.
Individuals seeking access to records contained in this system of records, or seeking to contest content, may submit a request in writing to the Forest Service FOIA/Privacy Act Officer contact information at https
www.dm.usda.gov/foia/poc.htm. If an individual believes more than one Department component maintains Privacy Act records concerning him or her, the individual may submit the request to the Departmental FOIA
Officer, 1400 Independence Avenue SW, South Building Room 4104, Washington, DC 20250- 0706, email:
USDAFOIA@ocio.usda.gov. The request should include a daytime phone number and email. Provide as much information as possible about the subject matter of the records you are requesting. This will help facilitate the search process. If you are making a request for records about yourself, you may receive greater access by providing either a notarized statement or a statement signed under penalty of perjury stating that you are the person who you say you are. Provide your full name, date, and either: 1 Have your signature witnessed by a notary; or 2

information, including information about you. If additional information is required to fulfill a Privacy Act request, you will be notified. If you want records about yourself to be released to a third party such as a law firm or other organization requesting records on your behalf, the third party may receive greater access if they have permission from you. You will need a signed and dated statement that the Forest Service may release records pertaining to you.
Include your name, date of birth, name of the person or organization to whom you want your records disclosed where applicable, their contact information, and list of records that may be released all emails, medical records, etc.. The person about whom the records will be released should include a statement indicating that they understand that knowingly or willingly seeking or obtaining access to records about another person under false pretenses and/or without their consent is punishable by a fine of up to $5,000.
Requests must be for access to existing records. The Forest Service FOIA Office will not create records for the purpose of responding to a FOIA or Privacy Act request. FOIA excludes Federal agencies from its definition of persons permitted to make FOIA
requests see 5 U.S.C. 552a3A and 5 U.S.C. 5512. To avoid confusion as to whether Federal employees are requesting information in their personal or official capacities, requests from Federal employees should be submitted using personal resources.

EXEMPTIONS CLAIMED FOR THE SYSTEM:

This system has been exempted pursuant to 5 U.S.C. 552ak2 from the requirements of 5 U.S.C. 552ac3, 552ad, 552ael, 552ae3, 552a4hi, and 552af see 7 CFR
1.123. This exemption will only be used to maintain the efficiency and integrity of lawful investigations and to prevent access to certain law enforcement files that potentially could alert subjects of investigations that their activities are being scrutinized and thus allow them time to take measures to prevent detection of illegal action or escape prosecution. Any individual who feels that he or she has been denied any right, privilege, or benefit for which he or she would otherwise be eligible as a result of the maintenance of such material may request access to the material. Such requests should be addressed to the System Manager.
