United States Federal District Judge Barbara Jacobs Rothstein for the United States District of Columbia has found information concerning a dam meets the law enforcement threshhold and is protectible pursuant to FOIA Exemptions 7(e) and 7(f). The finding was made after the use of Exemption 2 was invalidated by the Supreme Court's decision in Milner in 2011.
