The Agency may presume that multiple requests of this type made within a 30-day period have been made in order to avoid fees. For requests separated by a longer period, ONDCP will aggregate them only where there is a reasonable basis for determining that aggregation is warranted in view of all the circumstances involved. Multiple requests involving unrelated matters cannot be aggregated.","path":["Title 21—Food and Drugs","CHAPTER III—OFFICE OF NATIONAL DRUG CONTROL POLICY","PART 1401—PUBLIC AVAILABILITY OF INFORMATION","Subpart A—Freedom of Information Act Policies and Procedures"],"source_url":"https://www.ecfr.gov/api/versioner/v1/full/2026-08-25/title-21.xml","current_through":"2026-08-25","vintage":"","retrieved_at":"2026-08-27T02:24:47Z","sha256":"6b97e3f48746bb60dd26d706c0b7e3853d913890b2f8c66d4d7466321be1591d","source_id":"us-cfr","stale":true,"prev":"us/21-cfr-1401.15","next":"us/21-cfr-1401.17"},"notice":"GroundRules: Original legal text.
