Aletheca has not filed with this body, so there is nothing to measure. A zero here would read as “releases nothing” rather than “never asked”, which is why the row is absent instead of empty. Be the first to file.

   Freedom of Information Act Officer, Farm Credit Administration, 1501 Farm Credit Drive, McLean, VA 22102-5090

Routes marked unconfirmed are inferred from the agency’s domain pattern in the source dataset and have not been proven by a delivered letter. Aletheca confirms an endpoint before the first request goes to it and records the confirmation as a public event — a request sent to a plausible-looking address that bounces silently is worse than no request at all.

What it holds

• correspondence
• reports
• investigations
• contracts
• data

Record classes this kind of body normally keeps. Useful for drafting a request a records officer can act on without guessing — a request describing records the agency does not hold is refused as no-records, which costs a filing fee and teaches nobody anything.

Filing tips

• Be specific on date range/custodians
• Ask for Vaughn index
• Request rolling release
• Label the request FOIA Request, describe records with dates/titles/subject matter, and state the maximum authorized fee. FOIA.gov is another listed option. The request mailbox is distinct from service-center, liaison and appeal mailboxes. Source: https://www.fca.gov/required-notices/submitting-a-foia-request

Components process their own requests. Filing with the department when the records sit in a component is the commonest cause of a referral, and a referral costs months.
