This is a September 30, 2020 FAA FOIA Program Management Division response to John Greenewald, Jr. of The Black Vault. His February 22, 2014 request (2014-009122) asked for the FAA's FOIA case log for 2013. The FAA released one 176-page record, the FY 2013 FOIA log. It withheld third-party names under Exemption 6. The log lists requests by number, requester, organization, date and subject. Most concern airman files, accidents and enforcement records, and one seeks FAA correspondence with Bigelow Aerospace and the National UFO Reporting Center.
