Policies.

(a) Department Administrative Order 205-12 contains the basic policies and other criteria to be considered in issuing and administering these rules. (b) Requests for records made under 5 U.S.C. 552(a)(3) apply only to existing records. The Department is not required, in response to a request, to create records by combining or compiling information contained in existing records, to program or reprogram computers, or otherwise to prepare new records. Departmental officials may, upon request, provide or create new information in record form pursuant to user charge statutes, such as 15 U.S.C. 1525-27, or in accord with authority otherwise provided by law.
