FOIA Requests

FOIA requests to the U.S. Department of Energy, National Nuclear Security Administration Service Center may be submitted in writing, by fax, or e-mail. You may contact the U.S. Department of Energy, National Nuclear Security Administration Nevada Site Office at the following address:

Ms. Carolyn A. Becknell
Freedom of Information Act Office
NNSA Service Center
Office of Public Affairs
P.O. Box 5400
Albuquerque, NM 87185-5400

Requests may be faxed to (505) 845-5063 or submitted electronically using the FOIA Request form. Clearly mark the envelope, fax, or e-mail "Freedom of Information Act request."

When submitting a written request, indicate in your letter that you are making the request under the FOIA. Describe the records you are requesting as completely and accurately as possible, and provide your name, address, and a phone number. A telephone call between the requester and the FOIA Officer can often help clarify a request and expedite processing time.

Fees may be charged in accordance with the provisions of the FOIA. If a request will result in fees of less than $15, there will be no fee assessed. If you wish to address the category of requester you are, or request a fee waiver, please do so in your initial request letter, as this will save time in the FOIA process. For a full description of fee categories and qualifications for fee waivers, see DOE’s implementing regulations:
