                        TITLE 49--TRANSPORTATION
 
      CHAPTER VII--NATIONAL RAILROAD PASSENGER CORPORATION (AMTRAK)
 
PART 701_AMTRAK FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT PROGRAM--Table of Contents
 
Sec.  701.1  General provisions.

    This part contains the rules that the National Railroad Passenger 
Corporation (``Amtrak'') follows in processing requests for records 
under the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA), Title 5 of the United 
States Code, section 552. Information routinely provided to the public 
(i.e., train timetables, press releases) may be obtained without 
following Amtrak's FOIA procedures. As a matter of policy, Amtrak may 
make discretionary disclosures of records or information exempt under 
the FOIA whenever disclosure would not foreseeably harm an interest 
protected by an FOIA exemption; however, this policy does not create any 
right enforceable in court.
