Sec.  102.8  Appeals.

    (a) If you are dissatisfied with SBA's response to your request, you 
may appeal an adverse determination denying your request, in any 
respect, to the Chief, FOI/PA Office, 409 Third St., SW., Washington, DC 
20416.
    (b) The Chief must receive your signed, written appeal within 60 
calendar days of the date of the SBA determination from which you are 
appealing.
    (c) You should include as much information as possible, i.e., 
identifying the records not disclosed, the reason(s) a fee should be 
waived, or the reason(s) a request should be expedited. You must 
identify the deciding official and his/her office location.
    (d) The Chief will decide your appeal unless the Chief originally 
made the determination you are appealing. In that case, the Assistant 
Administrator for Hearings and Appeals will decide your appeal.
    (e) If SBA upholds the initial adverse determination, SBA will tell 
you why the decision has been upheld and tell you how to obtain judicial 
review of the decision.
