receipt of accrued fees (or promise to pay such fees), NACIC will 
promptly inform the requester in writing of those records or portions of 
records which may be released and which must be denied. With respect to 
the former, NACIC will provide copies; with respect to the latter, NACIC 
shall explain the reasons for the denial, identify the person(s) 
responsible for such decisions by name and title, and give notice of a 
right of administrative appeal.
    (c) Availability of reading room. As an alternative to receiving 
records by mail, a requester may arrange to inspect the records deemed 
releasable at a NACIC ``reading room'' in the metropolitan Washington, 
DC area. Access will be granted after applicable and accrued fees have 
been paid. Requests to review or browse documents in our database of 
``officially released records'' will also be honored in this manner to 
the extent that paper copies or electronic copies in unclassified 
computer systems exist. All such requests shall be in writing and 
addressed pursuant to Sec. 1800.3. The records will be available at 
such times as mutually agreed but not less than three (3) days from our 
receipt of a request. The requester will be responsible for reproduction 
charges for any copies of records desired.
