USDA, et al., 1:18-cv-00568 Dear Ms. Creighton: Th is is the final respo nse to your Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) req uest to the Department of Homeland Security (OHS) , Federal Emergency Management Agenc y (FEMA). You submitted a FOlA request dated November 1, 20 17 to the OHS. The OHS rece ived your request on November 2, 2017. On December 8, 2017 , your request was transfe rred to and received by the FEMA. The reque st was acknowledged by this office on December 21,20 17. As it relates to yo ur requ est (20 I 8-FEFO-00279) , you are seeking a copy of the following record s from January 20 , 2017 through the date the searc h is conducted: 1. All records reflecting any actua l or projected expenditures for renovations (inc ludin g remodeling or changes to decor) of any part of the office suites (including foyers , wai ting rooms, co nference room s, adjacent hallways , or othe r common areas) for any individual s in, or acting in, Senate -confi rmed (PAS) posit ions at you r agency; and, 2 . All commu nication s relating to actual or potential renovation s (incl udin g remodeling o r changes to decor) of any part of the office suites (including foyers , waiting rooms, co nference rooms, adj acent hall ways , or other common areas) for any individu als in, or act ing in, Senate-confirmed (PAS) po sitions at your agency. On Aug ust 23, 2018 , a total of 626 pages were relea sed in full and 191 pages were partiall y release d in response to your request. This product ion did not include duplicate page s. We hav e conducted an additional review of our prior release. For this final relea se (November 20, 2018) , FEMA reviewed 891 pages of record s, which include duplicate page s, located durin g a search of FEMA ' s Office of the Chief Administrat ive Officer and FEMA 's Office of the Chief Counse l. Pl ease note that the inclu sion of duplicat e pages within this production changes the page count from our prior release .

USDA, et al., l:18-cv-00568 the records are releasable in their entirety and 8 pages are partially releasable pursuant to Title 5 U.S.C. §§ 552(b)(5) and (6)(6), FOIA Exemptions 5 and 6. FOIA Exemption 5 protects from disclosure those inter- or intra-agency documents that are normally privileged in the civil discovery context. The three most frequently invoked privileges are the deliberative process privilege, the attorney work-product privilege, and the attorney-client privilege. After carefully reviewing the responsive documents, we determined that portions of the responsive documents qualify for protection under the following privilege(s): • Deliberative Process Privilege The deliberative process privilege protects the integrity of the deliberative or decision-making processes within the agency by exempting from mandatory disclosure opinions, conclusions, and recommendations included within interagency or intra-agency memoranda or letters. The release of this internal information would discourage the expression of candid opinions and inhibit the free and frank exchange of information among agency personnel. • Attorney Work-Product Privilege The attorney work-product privilege protects documents and other memoranda prepared by an attorney in contemplation of litigation. • Attorney-Client Privilege The attorney-client privilege protects confidential communications between an attorney and his client relating to a legal matter for which the client has sought professional advice. It applies to facts divulged by a client to his attorney, and encompasses any opinions given by an attorney to his client based upon, and thus reflecting, those facts, as well as communications between attorneys that reflect client-supplied information. The attorney-client privilege is not limited to the context of litigation. FOIA Exemption 6 exempts from disclosure of personnel or medical files and similar files the release of which would cause a clearly unwarranted invasion of personal privacy. This requires a balancing of the public's right to disclosure against the individual's right to privacy. The privacy interests of the individuals in the records you have requested outweigh any minimal public interest in disclosure of the information. Any private interest you may have in that infonnation does not factor into the aforementioned balancing test. If you have any questions concerning this matter, you may contact Assistant United States Attorney Joshua Kolsky at (202) 252-2541 or electronically at Joshua.Kolsky@usdoj.gov and reference 1: l 8-cv-00568.

After discussing with Dessadra and the workload in the Divisionand Branch, we have decided you will be the lead on this project. I know you have a lot on your plate .and the fact this is high vislb\Hty,I will expect you to tap others for suggestions and help as necessary. You are free to work with both Rachael and Zahar regarding this and I would like you to at least touch base with them Thursday or Friday. While I have seen various rough drawings floating around, we first need to discuss how to achieve the requirements . Rachel and Zahar told me the primary requirements are to change the flow of the OA suite: · 1. Currently the acting F1 leaves the suite without the reception area, his senior advisors and the cosbeing aware of his leaving the suite. 2. COSnot having direct line of sight to F1 office and not knowing who has entered either the Fl or F2 offices, and when they depart from their offices and the suite. 3. Personnel sitting in the seats in the reception area and seeing directly Into the Fl office. 4, F1 senior advisors sit outside F2 area and not Fl area. Need to develop COAwith short term solution or long term solution. For instance, putting frosted glass on fl office could protect his privacy from the waiting area. Is there concern with F1 being overheard in the reception area when he is in his office? Should the door Mr. Fenton uses to sneak out of the suite be eliminated? Would this create an egress issue? Should the reception area be moved to side where F2 and COSsit and the F1 Senior Advisors be moved to the current reception area? I'm not suggesting these as the COAs,we need to explore every option. · 1tDavid or Matt have things they feel should be considered, I expect thP.mto offer those suggestions to you so we have lots of options to consider. Please plan on briefing Sydney and me next Thursday on all the possible COAs. Any questions?

Back2round:The current FEMA Administrator's suite was designed and built in 2013. The cost to build out the 8th floor north space was S1.6M, including the FEMA Administrator's suite. The fol]owing issues with the current suite configuration hove been repo11cdby the Office of the ~: Administralor: • FEMI\ Administrator's Senior Advisors sit outside the FEMA Deputy Administrator's office, not the FEMA Administrator's office. • Visitors waiting in the reception area for the FEMA Administrator's suite can see directly into the FEMA Administrator's office. • The Chief of Staff docs not hRvedirect line of sight to see who has entered the FEMA Administrator's or Deputy Administrator\ offices. Pl'oicct Request: Estimated Rough Order of Magnitude $700K • • • • = $25K design and $675K construction* Relocate J<'EMAAdministrator's and Deputy Administrntor's offices to the cm'rent bullpen area (FEMI\ Administrntor's suite corn;cptdrawing attached; approved by Deputy Chief of Stan) Relocate FEMA Adminish·ator's conference room area to current f1EMAAdministrator's office space.

L. l 10-16l (121 Stat 2022). Section 713 provides: "During the period in which the head of any department or agency, or nny other officer or civilian employee of the Federal Government appointed by the President of the United States, holds office, no funds may be obligated or expended in excess of $5,000 to furnish or redecorate the office of such department head, agency head, officer, or employee, or to pi1rchascfurnittire or make improvements for any such office, unless advance notice of such furnishing or redecoration is expressly approved by the Committees on Appropriations. For the purposes of this section, the term 11office11 shnll include the entire suite of offices assigned to the individual, as well as any other space used primarily by the individtmlor the use of which is directly contmlled by the individual." OCC has reviewed the statute and findings by GAO on its application. Renovntions exceeding $5,000 without prior notification to and ap1,rovalfrom Congress violate the statute. The cmTenldraft plan exceeds $5,000 in costs. Accordingly, prior to beginning any work on the proposed project, FEMA, in conjunction with DHS, must notify Congress and seek approval of the overnll project.

We asked Zohra if she had a copy of the concept drawing but she could not locate it. Tyrone checked with the 1&1staff and there h.id been several concept drawings presented to Zohra and the COSpreviously that were rejected. Because we had only concept drawings that were already disapproved, we discussed the requirements and had Marcus Little develop a concept draft. Thiswas provided to the DCOSfor signed approval today. This seemed to have kicked off the email chain. We have provided a ROMin the paper and have sent the concept draft to GSAand Donahoe for pricing estimates. We expect they will only provide a design estimate and will not provide anything further until design is complete, A third request came todciyin the email.

As background, you ad1Jiscd that there is currently only a metallic foldingdesk In the office. The Initial concern I had to this issue is whether the statutory cap on office furniture and decorating applied to ActingFl. in my opinion, Pub. L. 110·161 (121 Stat 2022},Is Inapplicable.Section 713 provides: Duringthe period In which the head of any department or agency, or any other officer or civilianemployee of the Federal Government appointed by the President of the United States, holds office, no funds may be obligated or expended in excess of$ 5,000 to furnish or tedecorate the office of such department head, aeency head, officer, or employee, or to purchase furniture or make Improvements for any such office, unless advance notice of such furnishingor redecoration Is expmssly approved by the Committees on Appropriations. For the purposes of this section, the term "office" shall Include the entire suite of offices assigned to the individual,as well as any other space used primarilyby the individualor the use of which is directly controlled by the lndlviclual. The applicable phrase in the above is "appointed by the President.'' Fenton Is not appointed by the President; rather he Is only In an Actingstatus. This phrase then modifies the remainder of the Section with the limitation on spending. As Fenton is not 11appointed by the President," the Section and limitation therein are not applicable. Accordingly,the only limitation on furniture purchase oueht to be the limitation imposed by the Agencyon SESfurniture purchase ancl previouslyapproved. >-JVERSIGHT · Paga1104 or 1229 MULTI-DHS-17-0477-B-000590 Other than the above, t have reached out to the attorneys for OCFO to confirm we are on the same page since the purchase will have to be approved by OCFOin the end. -Kevin KevinD.

They also had suggested reaching out to facilities, so I'd emailed John Frazier at their recommendation and was waiting back to hear from them. Thanks for checking in on the SESoffice amount history. It's in the ballpark of the $5,000 limit, but I agree that we should advise them to limit their spending to $5,000 to make sure we're complying with the statute. !f they really want to spend more, I'd advise that they first notify the appropriations committees before doing so.

The same provision appears, and is therefore binding now, in the PY 2017 Consolidated Appropriations Act. In that case, while ii disputed some of the costs as not being allocable lo the appointee's remodeling costs, the agency (I) exceeded the $5,000 limit without prior notification to Congress, and so (2) violated the ADA which made such expenditures unavailable. Erring on the side of caution, l would read the provision to mean the limit doesn't extend lo maintenance & upkeep (e.g., if the painting cycle is every 3 yeurs, and that officc-in-qi1estion comes due, that would not count to the S5,000), but we'd wont to ent-urc offices used by other appointees, if remodeled, .1recosted separalcly so the $5000 isn't inodvcrtcntlyexceeded. https ://www.gao.govIassets/680/678160.pd f Most Sincerely & Respectfully, James A.

By redesign it may include some minor construction~ knocking down walls, putting up new walls, moving doorways etc, It also may include moving furniture. My concern is the $S,000 limitation and whether It applles. Pub. L. 110-161 (121 Stat 2022). Section 713 provides: During the period in which the head of any department or agency, or any other officer or civilian employee of the Federal Government appointed by the President of the United States, holds office, no funds may be obligated or expended in excess of$ 5,000 to furnish or redecorate the office of such department head, agency head, officer, or employee, or to purchase furniture or make improvements for any such office, unless advance notice of such furnishing or redecoration is expressly approved by the Committees on Appropriations. For the purposes of this section, the term "office" shall include the entire suite of offices assigned to the individual, as well as any other space used primarily by the indivtdual or the use of which is directly controlled by the individual. I have been told in the past If It isn't repair or maintenance the $5,000 limitation applies. What Is your reading on this?

Section 713 provides: Dming the period in which the head of any department or agency, or any other officer or civilian employee of the Federal Government appointed by the President of the United States, holds office, no funds may be obligated or expended in excess of$ 5,000 to furnish or rcdecorntc the office of such . ~ department head, ngcncy head, officer, or employee, or to purchase furniture or Page 1081 Of 1229 AME_F~ICAN ,OVERSIGHT MULTI-DHS-17-0477-B-000755 make improvements for any such office, unless advonce notice of such furnishing or redecoration is expressly approved hy the Committees on Appropriations. For the purposes of this section, the term "office" shall include the entire suite of offices assigned to the individual, as well as any other space used primarily by the individual or the use of which is directly controlled by the individunl. OCC is reviewing the Statute and findings by GAO mid other investigative arms 011 when the statute was violated.

Background: The FEMA Administrator's suite w<1sdesigned und built in 2013. The cost to build out the 8th floor north space was $1.6M. Zohra Amin, Executive Officer, Office of the Administrator, submitted the current redesign request to optimize the PEMA Adminislrator's suite. Issues:The FEMAAdministrator's Suite is not aligned to the current flow of work activities, impacting productivity cindmanagement of st.iff. • Location of visitor reception urea creates potential security, privacy and work disruption. Visitors w,liting in the reception area arc immediately outside of ond have direct line of site into the Administrator's office. • Configuration impacts ability to manage access and daily work flow. The Chief of Staff does not have direct line of sight into the Administrator's immediate office to manage scheduled and unscheduled visitors and content flow. • Improve physical alignment of .staffto management. The Adminis1rntor'simmediate staff sit outside the Deputy Administrator's space as opposed to the Administrator's space.

Kevin got th{sright. OCFO controls, or has in the post, the Cong notificntion mechanics incl coordination with DHS budget. Unless OCC leadership agreed to something else, we might want to let OA talk directly with OCFO on contents and timing of the Cong notification. Sounds like someone thinks OCC will do all this. Cm1 we get clarification on this'} I will recheck but I think no funds are available until the notification is done. I would also think wc could transmit the notification based on rensonable estimates but that'd be a management decision. That might keep things moving.
