Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The Freedom of Information officer of the Navy would be responsible for processing FOIA requests and determining what information can be released to the public. In this case, requesting a copy of the report would fall under the purview of the FOIA process.

Answer: A, B, D
 None of these choices are relevant to the situation at hand. The Office of Government Information Services was created to audit FOIA compliance and mediate disputes, not to provide access to restricted military facilities or obtain reports on missile tests. The conversion of executive-branch documents to digital form and ensuring agency websites are consumer friendly are also not applicable in this scenario. Finally, ensuring compliance with federal Sunshine Act mandates is not relevant as the Sunshine Act pertains to open meetings, not access to military facilities or documents.
