Sec. 902.74  Agency decision.

    (a) The Chairman shall have sole authority to act on an appeal, 
which seeks to reverse an initial decision denying disclosure of a 
record. He shall review each appeal and provide the appellant and other 
interested parties with a written notice of his decision. The decision 
of the Chairman as to the availability of the record is administratively 
final.
    (b) If the decision of the Chairman sustains the refusal to 
disclose, the notice of decision shall set forth the reasons for the 
refusal, including the specific exemptions from disclosure under the Act 
that are the bases of the decision not to disclose. The notice shall 
further advise the appellant that judicial review is available on 
complaint to the appropriate District Court of the United States, as 
provided in section 552(a)(4)(B) of title 5 U.S.C.
    (c) As set out in Sec. 902.61, the final decision on appeal shall be 
made within 20 workdays after the receipt of the appeal. An extension of 
this limitation is authorized as prescribed under Sec. 902.62.
