Extension of the Delegation of Authority for Freedom of Information Act and Privacy Act Requests

الملخص

The purpose of this amendment to the Farmers Home Administration (FmHA) regulations is to expand the delegation of authority to include the Freedom of Information/Privacy Act Specialist and Management Analyst positions located in the Freedom of Information/ Torts Section at the National Office, and the State Administrative Officers/Administrative Program Chiefs. This action is necessary due to a noticeable increase in Freedom of Information requests that must be processed. The intended effect is to speed up the processing of the Freedom of Information Act requests.
