The core responsibilities of IPS include: (1) responding to records access requests made by the public (including under the FOIA, the Privacy Act, and the mandatory declassification review requirements of the Executive Order governing classified national security information), by Members of Congress, by other government agencies, and those made pursuant to judicial process such as subpoenas, court orders, and discovery requests; (2) systematic review under the Executive Order; (3) records management; (4) privacy protection; (5) national security classification management and declassification review; (6) corporate records archives management; (7) research; (8) operation and management of the Department’s library; and (9) technology applications that support these activities. 3. The purpose of this declaration is to inform the Court about the progress that IPS has made on the processing of Plaintiff’s FOIA requests in this case and to provide the Court with information concerning IPS’ structure and resources. To those ends, this declaration provides (i) a summary of Citizens United’s (“Plaintiff”) FOIA request; (ii) information concerning the Department’s FOIA caseload and resources devoted thereto; and (iii) a description of how IPS has handled Plaintiff’s FOIA requests to date.

Plaintiff filed the instant action based on all of the above listed requests on January 11, 2016. II. THE DEPARTMENT’S FOIA CASELOAD AND DOCUMENT REVIEW PROCESS 11. Over the past several years, the Department’s FOIA caseload has greatly increased. In FY 2008, the Department received fewer than 6,000 new FOIA and Privacy Act requests; that number of new FOIA and Privacy Act requests annually increased, reaching nearly 25,000 in FY 2015 (an increase of over 300%). By the end of Fiscal Year 2015, the Department had nearly 22,000 FOIA and Privacy Act requests pending. The Department currently has approximately 29,000 FOIA and Privacy Act requests pending and is engaged in 106 FOIA litigation cases, many of which involve court-ordered document production schedules. At a time when the FOIA caseload is increasing dramatically, the funds available to process FOIA requests have remained nearly constant since Fiscal Year 2013. For instance, the Department spent approximately $16.5 million in FY 2013, $15.9 million in FY 2014, and $16.3 in FY 2015 on FOIA personnel costs associated with processing FOIA requests. 12. The review process undertaken by IPS, which follows the searches throughout the 5 Citizens United v.

Because IPS’s document review system, known as FREEDOMS 2 (or “F2”) cannot ingest most forms of electronic data, most of the potentially responsive documents must be printed (if they were provided to IPS in an electronic format) and then scanned into F2.
