Executive Summary Reporting Period: October 1, 2023, through September 30, 2024 The Department of Defense (DoD) Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) program received 61,858 requests and processed 57,662 requests for records under the FOIA in fiscal year (FY) 2024. The DoD released information in 52% of all processed cases and released information in 91% of cases in which documents were located. The DoD completed 83% of its requests in FY 2024 in fewer than 100 days. Requests were granted in full for 40% of those requests; a partial release of documents was made in 51% of those requests; and 10% of requests were denied in full on the basis of FOIA exemptions. The privacy exemptions, Exemptions 6 and 7(C), were the most common exemptions accounting for approximately 62% of all exemptions used. The number of pending FOIA requests for the DoD at the end of FY 2024 was 33,852, an approximate 14% increase from the 29,735 requests pending at the end of FY 2023. The number of backlogged requests (those still open past the statutory response time) increased from 19,882 at the end of FY 2023 to 21,436 at the end of FY 2024, an approximate 8% increase in backlogged requests. The number of backlogged appeals decreased from 736 to 607, a 17% decrease in FY 2024. The number of pending consultations increased from 1,272 to 1,516, a 19% increase in FY 2024. A.

Making a FOIA Request Information and Resources The DoD Freedom of Information Act Handbook is a web-based interactive resource providing basic information on filing FOIA requests with the DoD. Along with links to DoD component addresses, it offers a brief description of expected response times, and reasons why some requests are not granted. The DoD FOIA Handbook is available electronically at this web address: http://open.defense.gov/Transparency/FOIA/FOIAHandbook.aspx To file a FOIA request with a Defense Agency Component, a branch of the Military Services, or one of the Combatant Commands, you will find their FOIA websites at this web address: https://www.foia.gov/ III.

Definitions of Terms Administrative Appeal: A request to an agency asking that it review at a higher administrative level a full or partial denial of access to records under the FOIA, or any other adverse FOIA determination. Average Number: The number obtained by dividing the sum of a group of numbers by the quantity of numbers in the group. For example: the average of 3, 7, and 14 is 8. Backlog: The number of requests or administrative appeals pending at an agency at the end of the fiscal year that are beyond the statutory time period for a response. Component: DoD processes requests on a decentralized basis; a “component” is an entity, also sometimes referred to as an Office, Combatant Command, or Defense Agency, within DoD that processes FOIA requests. Consultation: The procedure whereby an agency responding to a FOIA request first forwards a record to another agency for its review because that other agency has an interest in the document. Once the agency in receipt of the consultation finishes its review of the record, it responds back to the agency that forwarded it. That agency, in turn, will then respond to the FOIA requester. The DoD tracked consultations as FOIA requests until July 1, 2008. Due to DOJ guidance, they are now tracked and reported separately. Exemption 3 Statute: A separate federal statute prohibiting the disclosure of a certain type of 3 information and authorizing it being withheld under FOIA, 5 U.S.C. 552(b)(3). FOIA Request: A FOIA request is generally a request to an agency for access to records concerning another person (i.e., a “third-party” request), or concerning an organization, or a particular topic of interest. FOIA requests also include requests made by requesters seeking records concerning themselves (i.e., “first-party” requests) when those requesters are not subject to the Privacy Act, such as non-U.S. citizens. Moreover, because all first-party requesters should be afforded the benefit of both the access provisions of the FOIA as well as those of the Privacy Act, FOIA requests also include any first-party requests where an agency determines that it must search beyond its Privacy Act “systems of records.” or where a Privacy Act exemption applies and the agency then applies the FOIA to afford the individual the greatest possible access. All requests which require the agency to use the FOIA in responding to the requester are included in this report. Full Grant: An agency decision to disclose all records in full in response to a FOIA request. Full Denial: An agency decision not to release any part of a record or records in response to a FOIA request because all the information in the requested record or records is determined by the agency to be exempt under one or more of the FOIA exemptions, or for some procedural reason such as no record is located in response to a FOIA request. Median Number: The middle, not average, number. For example, of 3, 7, and 14, the median number is 7. Multi-Track Processing: A system in which simple requests requiring relatively minimal review are placed in one processing track and more voluminous and complex requests are placed in one or more other tracks. Requests in each track are processed on a first-in/first-out basis. A requester who has a compelling need for records may request expedited processing (see below). o Expedited Processing – an agency will process a FOIA request on an expedited basis when a requester satisfies the requirements for expedited processing as set forth in the statute and agency regulations. o Simple Request – a FOIA request that an agency using multi-track processing places in its fastest (non-expedited) track based on the low volume and/or simplicity of the records requested. o Complex Request – a FOIA request that an agency using multi-track processing places in a slower track based on the high volume and/or complexity of the records requested. Partial Grant/Partial Denial: An agency decision to disclose a record only in part in response to a FOIA request, redacting information determined to be exempt under one or more exemptions under the FOIA; or a decision to disclose some records in their entirety, but to withhold others in whole or in part. Pending Request or Pending Administrative Appeal: A request or administrative appeal for which an agency has not taken final action in all respects. 4 Perfected Request: A request for records which reasonably describes such records and is made in accordance with agency regulations stating the time, place, fees (if any), and procedures to be followed. Processed Request or Processed Administrative Appeal: A request or administrative appeal for which an agency has taken final action in all respects. Range in Number of Days: The minimum and maximum number of days to process requests or administrative appeals. Time Limits: The time period in the FOIA for an agency to respond to a FOIA request (ordinarily 20 working days from proper receipt of a “perfected” FOIA request). C. FOIA Exemptions and Short Definitions Exemption 1: Classified national defense and foreign relations information. Exemption 2: Records related solely to the internal personnel rules and practices of the DoD or any DoD Components. Exemption 3: Information that is prohibited from disclosure by another federal law. Exemption 4: Trade secrets and other confidential business information. Exemption 5: Inter-agency or intra-agency communications protected by legal privileges, including attorney work-product and attorney-client privileges. Exemption 6: Information involving matters of personal privacy. Exemption 7: Records or information compiled for law enforcement purposes, to the extent that the production of those records (A) could reasonably be expected to interfere with enforcement proceedings; (B) would deprive a person of the right to a fair trial or an impartial adjudication; (C) could reasonably be expected to constitute an unwarranted invasion of personal privacy; (D) could reasonably be expected to disclose the identity of a confidential source; (E) would disclose techniques and procedures for law enforcement investigations or prosecutions, or would disclose guidelines for law enforcement investigations or prosecutions; or (F) could reasonably be expected to endanger the life or physical safety of any individual. Exemption 8: Information relating to the supervision of financial institutions. Exemption 9: Geological information concerning wells. 5 IV.
