OHRP Determination Letters and Other Correspondence

OHRP has implemented a practice to redact from compliance oversight determination letters posted on its website any sections that discuss unresolved concerns, questions, or allegations related to an ongoing investigation. Anyone wishing to request an unredacted copy of these letters should submit a request for the unredacted letter under the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA). Individual requests will be considered on a case-by-case basis. Such requests should be directed to:
