Hello,
There is one exception to the concept that Federal information
is not copyrighted. If an agency enters into a CRADA with an outside
(commercial) organization, the information (i.e. spatial data) cannot be
copied by users OR requested from the agency through a Freedom of
Information Act request. Linda Zellmer
