FOIA Fees
A fee is not charged if the charges for processing the request are less than or equal to the cost of routine collection and processing of the fee. Therefore, if the total of charges due for processing a request is $15 or less, no fee will be charged. If the estimated fee for search or duplication charges exceeds $15 the requester shall be notified, unless the requester has stated in the FOIA request an amount sufficient to cover the estimated fees. The following is a chart of the four specific categories and chargeable fees:
Category |
Chargeable Service |
Commercial Use Requesters |
Search, Review and Duplication |
Educational and Non-commercial Scientific Institutions Requesters |
Duplication (excluding the cost of the first 100 pages) |
Representative of the News Media |
Duplication (excluding the cost of the first 100 pages) |
All Other Requesters |
Search and Duplication (excluding the cost of the first 2 hours of search and 100 pages) |
Waiver or Reduction of Fees
Documents shall be furnished without charge, or at reduced charges if disclosure of the information is in the public interest because it is likely to contribute significantly to public understanding of the operations or activities of the government, and is not primarily in the operations or activities of the government, and is not primarily in the commercial interest of the requester.
