The CIA answered this request on 8 February 2006, with a notification that a search for the records could cost up to $150 each, and "search fees are assessable even if no records are found or, if found, we determine they are not releasable." The search would not proceed until a commitment had been made to pay the fees. Cryptome has not proceeded with the request.
