To Whom This May Concern,

This request is mechanically equivalent to IRS FOIA F18113-0042, could you please explain why F18113-0042 was an accepted request and this one is being rejected?

FOIA policy clearly states that agencies can not deny access to documents in whole when they could be redacted in part - which is the case here.
