           TITLE 41--PUBLIC CONTRACTS AND PROPERTY MANAGEMENT
 
              CHAPTER 105--GENERAL SERVICES ADMINISTRATION
 
PART 105-60_PUBLIC AVAILABILITY OF AGENCY RECORDS AND INFORMATIONAL 
MATERIALS--Table of Contents
 
                   Subpart 105-60.4_Described Records
 
Sec. 105-60.401  General.


    (a) Except for records made available in accordance with subparts 
105-60.2 and 105-60.3 of this part, GSA will make records available to a 
requester promptly when the request reasonably describes the records 
unless GSA invokes an exemption in accordance with subpart 105-60.5 of 
this part. Although the burden of reasonable description of the records 
rests with the requester, whenever practical GSA will assist requesters 
to describe records more specifically.
    (b) Whenever a request does not reasonably describe the records 
requested, GSA may contact the requester to seek a more specific 
description. The 20-workday time limit set forth in Sec. 105-60.402-2 
will not start until the official identified in Sec. 105-60.402-1 or 
other responding official receives a request reasonably describing the 
records.
