  Subpart B--Exemptions From Production and Disclosure Under 5 U.S.C. 
                                 552(b)
 
Sec. 1015.19  Decisions on requests for exemption from disclosure under 5 U.S.C. 552(b)(4).

    (a) The Commission generally will not decide whether material 
received with a request for exemption from disclosure under 5 U.S.C. 
552(b)(4) is entitled to be withheld until a request for production or 
disclosure is made for that information. The determination will be based 
on the most authoritative judicial interpretations available at the time 
a request for disclosure or production is considered. Any reasonably 
segregable portion of a record will be disclosed to any person 
requesting such record after deletion of any portions determined to be 
exempt under 5 U.S.C. 552(b)(4). The requester will be given a brief 
description of any information found to be exempt.
    (b) If material received with a request for exemption from 
disclosure under 5 U.S.C. 552(b)(4) is found to be disclosable, in whole 
or in part, the person submitting the material will be notified in 
writing and given 10 calendar days from the receipt of the letter to 
seek judicial relief. In no event, however, will the material be 
returned to the person submitting it.
