Law Department of Homeland Security Washington DC 20528 Re Appeal of FOIA request 20170026DHS002 Dear FOIA Officer This is a Freedom of Information Act administrative appeal After twenty working days the Secret Service Administration has not provided an acknowledgement or response to National Security Archive FOIA request 20170026DHS002 I find this an adverse determination and am appealing On January 23 2017 I filed a FOIA request to the Secret Service Administration for The Worker and Visitor Entrance System WAVES records and Access Control Records System ACR records for Friday January 20 2017 Saturday January 21 2017 and Sunday January 22 2017 This request specifically seeks the same 28 fields of data that are displayed in the enclosed screenshots of the White House Visitor Records Requests website Attached To date I have received no letter from the Secret Service acknowledging my request or and documents produced as a result of my request In addition to this procedural adverse determination as you consider this appeal please also consider that since 2009 the majority of the components of the requested visitor logs have been posted by the White House at 90 to 120 day intervals with no harm to government or presidential function and much public benefit Finally these are key agency records created by the Secret Service in the performance of its statutory responsibilities Thank you for promptly responding to this appeal Sincerely Kate Doyle An independent non-governmental research institute and library located at the George Washington University the
