Should we draft another FOIA request all together!?

Thank you dspencer, that helps a lot! I think answering my questions is in the public interest and thus a waiver of fees should be "more than fair and reasonable" ;-)

Perhaps we should draft a new FOIA request all together which meets the FDIC's FOIA requirements.

I could check it against the answer I've received and verify that all the requirements are met.

JWW, I believe you need to ask for a specific document. They won't answer questions. Also, here is a section on fees and when they can be waived:

Can I ask that any fees be waived?
You may request a waiver of fees. Under the FOIA, fee waivers are limited to situations in which a requester can show that the disclosure of the requested information is in the public interest because it is likely to contribute significantly to public understanding of the operations and activities of the government and is not primarily in the commercial interest of the requester. Requests for fee waivers from individuals who are seeking records on themselves usually do not meet this standard. In addition, a requester's inability to pay fees is not a legal basis for granting a fee waiver.
