Then, in the very next sentence I demonstrated why one should read CAREFULLY! The offending sentence states "The proposed fees are intended to cover the actual cost of locating, copying and mailing the records, plus 10% as authorized by law...." This is not correct. The proposed fees are intended to cover full costs, but NOT an additional 10%. I misread a portion of the NARA proposal wherein the 10% additional charge is clearly stated to apply to publications of "special works and collections of resources" and to releases of "historical photographic materials and sound recordings." Let me make it completely clear: NARA is not proposing to include a 10% "profit" in the fees. Now that I have so cleverly demonstrated why it is important to read the full release carefully, I must also plead guilty to having hit the Send button before adding a signature line to the message! Some days are just like that! Oh! And if you forwarded the original message to anyone, please do the same with this.
