Freedom of Information Act


​IMPORTANT​​​ NOTICE

The Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) office and employees at the Western Area Power Administration (WAPA) are continuing to process FOIA requests to the best of their ability
​during the COVID-19 pandemic.  However, due to limited access to some records, processing times may be affected.


We may not receive FOIA requests sent by U.S. mail, overnight mail services, or facsimile in a timely manner.  We recommend requesters submit requests through
WAPA's FOIA email address at 
FOIA@wapa.gov, or through the government-wide portal at https://w​ww.foia.gov.


​The Freedom of Information Act, 5 U.S.C. § 552, which was enacted in 1966 and took effect July 4, 1967 provides that any person has a right to obtain access to agency records. 

The FOIA applies only to Federal agencies and does not create a right of access to records held by Congress, the courts or by state or local government agencies.
