Dan Marcus, General CounselNational Commission on Terrorist AttacksUpon the United States2100 K Street, NW, Suite 300Washington, DC 20036Dear Mr. Marcus:

This responds to item 14 in the Commission's Document Request No. 5 to the FBI, whichrequested information about the Department's declinations pursuant to 18 U.S.C. 2339A or2339B during the period from 1996 through September 11, 2001.

Department records indicated that 37 United States Attorneys' Offices had declined casesunder Section 2339. Since the additional requested information was not readily retrievable in theDepartment's computerized systems, the Executive Office for United States Attorneys contactedthose United States Attorneys' Offices to obtain the particular information responsive to yourrequest. The data is collected on a fiscal year basis, October 1 through September 30. Therewere 23 decimations under section 2339A and nine declinations under section 2339B betweenOctober 1, 1994 and September 30, 2001. The breakdown by Fiscal Year is as follows:

2339A DecimationsFY 95 - OneFY 96 - OneFY 97 - FourFY 98 - OneFY 99 - ZeroFY 00 - One

FY 01- Fifteen (one of which was re-opened under 2339A under another name - the re-opened case is active)
