HRSA's Freedom of Information Act
Home Page
Within the HRSA
Web site you will find a wealth of public information available
at your fingertips. You will be able to review it on-line or download
it for future use. You can use our search
engine to help you find what you're looking for.
If you check all these resources for public
information but you still don't see what you need, then you can
consider filing a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request. The
Freedom of Information Act, Title
5 of the United States Code, section 552, is a federal statute
which affords any person the right to obtain federal agency records,
unless the records (or a part of the records) are protected from
disclosure by any of the nine
exemptions contained in the law. On October 2, 1996, the Electronic
Freedom of Information Act Amendments of 1996 (E-FOIA, for short)
was signed into law. E-FOIA makes it possible for you to have electronic
access to important information in HRSA's Electronic
Reading Room.
This home page will help you understand
how the FOIA can be used to obtain information which is not otherwise
publicly available. If you wish to visit HRSA's FOIA Public Reading
Room in person, it is located at:
- Freedom of Information office, HRSA, 5600 Fishers Lane, Room
14-15, Rockville, MD 20857
Hours of operation are 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.,
Monday through Friday.
