An individual may submit a FOIA request to NASA by mail,
fax, electronic mail, or in person to one of the eleven NASA
FOIA Center offices, as listed below. Your request must be
in writing. No telephone requests will be accepted.
If you do not know the exact title of the document you are
seeking, you should provide a reasonable description of the
documents. The more information that you can provide about
the document, such as its author or date, the more expeditiously
your request will be processed. Your request will be logged
and a tracking number assigned to it. The tracking number
assigned is of great importance to you as a requester because,
in the event you would like to check the status of your request,
the number enables us to locate where in the process your
request is.
This NASA FOIA Homepage includes a link to each NASA Center
Homepage, as well as a link to the NASA FOIA Contacts List.
The Contacts List has the telephone and fax numbers, and the
appropriate contract number assigned to that Center.
You should submit your request directly to the FOIA Office,
at the NASA Center, that authored the documents. If you do
not know which Center to contact, then you may submit a request
to NASA Headquarters and we will attempt to identify the responsible
Center and forward your request.
A link is also included to the NASA FOIA Regulations, "Availability
of Agency Records to Members of the Public" which will
provide you with more detailed information concerning the
processing of your FOIA request.
Also each NASA FOIA Center has and maintains separate electronic
reading rooms, which have records that are responsive to that
Center’s records. |
