The materials in FOIA 22-30050-F are a systematic body of documents responsive to the topic of the FOIA. Researchers should consult an archivist about related materials.
Documents responsive to this FOIA were found in these collection areas – Obama Presidential Electronic Records and White House Communications Agency.
The Executive Office of the President (EOP) instance of the Electronic Records Archive (ERA) contains electronic records created or received by Obama administration staff. These records are stored in Search and Access Sets (SAS) that represent their originating computer program, such as Exchange Email or the Worker and Visitor Entry System (WAVES). In addition to records captured from the White House’s electronic systems, EOP-ERA also contains records from the home and shared drives used by White House staff.
White House Communications Agency records are processed at the folder/videotape level. While this method maintains folder/videotape integrity, it frequently results in the incidental processing of videotapes that are not wholly responsive to the subject area.
The following is a list of documents, folders, and electronic search results lists (SRLs) that were processed in response to FOIA 22-30050-F:
