The FBI divides FOIA requests into five processing tracks based on responsive page count: extra-small (50 pages or fewer), small (51–250), medium (251–500), large (501–4,999), and extra-large (5,000 or more).
Notes on verification
Confirmed by FBI's own official FOIA page, DOJ's official FOIA Reference Guide, and NARA/OGIS documentation. Minor boundary rounding discrepancies (500 vs 501) do not undermine the core claim. [tier=bronze indep_score=0.539 clusters=2 claim_tier=notable]
