Submit a FOIA Request

The Freedom of Information Act is a law that allows any person access to federal agency records. All agencies, including the EPA, have the duty to release records to the public.

To balance the public's right to know with efficient government operations, the FOIA allows EPA and all agencies to withhold nine categories of information from the public if disclosure of that information would harm government or private interests.
