The Honorable W. Neil Eggleston

Counsel to the President

The White House

Washington, D.C. 20502

Dear Mr. Eggleston:

In accordance with the requirements of the Presidential Records Act (PRA), as amended, 44

U.S.C. §§2201-2209, this letter constitutes a formal notice from the National Archives and

Records Administration (NARA) to the incumbent President of our intent to open George W.

Bush Presidential records in response to the systematic processing project and Freedom of

Information Act (FOIA) requests listed in Attachment A.

This material, consisting of 15,713 pages and 32 assets, has been reviewed for the six PRA

Presidential restrictive categories, including confidential communications requesting or

submitting advice (P5) and material related to appointments to federal office (P2), as they were

eased by President George W. Bush on November 15, 2010. These records were also reviewed

for all applicable FOIA exemptions. As a result of this review, 6,146 pages and 11 assets in

whole and 304 pages and 3 assets in part have been restricted. Therefore, NARA is proposing to

open the remaining 9,263 pages and 18 assets in whole and 304 pages and 3 assets in part that do

not require closure under 44 U.S.C. § 2204. A copy of any records proposed for release under

this notice will be provided to you upon your request.

We are also concurrently informing former President George W. Bush’s representative, Tobi

Young, of our intent to release these records. Pursuant to 44 U.S.C. 2208(a), NARA will release

the records 60 working days from the date of this letter, which is December 3, 2015, unless the

former or incumbent President requests a one-time extension of an additional 30 working days or

asserts a constitutionally based privilege, in accordance with 44 U.S.C. 2208(b)-(d). Please let

us know if you are able to complete your review before the expiration of the 60 working day

period. Pursuant to 44 U.S.C. 2208(a)(1)(B), we will make this notice available to the public on

the NARA website.

If you have any questions relating to this notification, please contact me at (202) 357-5144 or
