PART 2411--AVAILABILITY OF OFFICIAL INFORMATION--Table of Contents
Sec. 2411.8 Extension of time limits.
In unusual circumstances as specified in this section, the time
limits prescribed with respect to initial determinations or
determinations on appeal may be extended by written notice from the
officer handling the request (either initial or on appeal) to the person
making such request setting forth the reasons for such extension and the
date on which a determination is expected to be dispatched. No such
notice shall specify a date that would result in a total extension of
more than ten (10) working days. As used in this section, ``unusual
circumstances'' means, but only to the extent reasonably necessary to
the proper processing of the particular request:
(a) The need to search for and collect the requested records from
field facilities or other establishments that are separate from the
office processing the request;
(b) The need to search for, collect and appropriately examine a
voluminous amount of separate and distinct records which are demanded in
a single request; or
(c) The need for consultation, which shall be conducted with all
practicable speed, with another agency having a

substantial interest in the determination of the request or among two or
more components of the agency having substantial subject matter interest
therein.
