OCR of Document 44, Exhibit I - Margolin FOIA Withheld Index

 

There may be OCR errors that have escaped my proofreading, so refer to the original document before quoting.

 

Errors in the original document have been left uncorrected.  (“administrative” is sometimes spelled “admininstrative” and “forward” is sometimes spelled “foward”)

 

The table page numbers at the bottom of the page have been left off. References to pages should use the Court page number at the top of the page (which are not in the html version).
