Sec. 10.33  Acknowledgment and access.

    (a) Requests by an individual to determine whether he or she is the 
subject of a record in a system of records, or requesting access to a 
record in a system of records, should be acknowledged within 10 working 
days, where the request is by mail. For requests in person, an immediate 
response is given, either granting access or informing such individual 
when notification or access may be expected.
    (b) If the response granting access or copies of the record is made 
within 10 working days, separate acknowledgment is not required.
    (c) Although requests for access to a record are normally in 
writing, e.g., by filing a written form or letter, it is the option of 
the individual to mail or present the request form in person.
