Official FBI and DOJ seals at top of form. Date line and redacted personal identifying information (name and possibly address) at top of consent-to-search form. Consent-to-search form in which a landowner (name redacted) authorizes FBI Special Agents to search approximately 75 acres of land including outbuildings and barns in an unidentified county in Washington state. The stated purpose is to locate a person and/or personal property including a parachute and currency related to the D.B. Cooper hijacking of a Northwest Orient airplane in November 1971. Permission is granted voluntarily and limited to one search operation. Handwritten annotations apparently noting circumstances of obtaining the consent: the landowner may have been leaving the area and gave authority/permission, with dates of 3/23/72 or 3/24/72 noted. Signature and witness block at the bottom of the consent form. Names are redacted under FOIA exemptions b6 and b7C. An FBI Special Agent signed as witness. Document is stamped/labeled DB Cooper-7903.

Multiple FOIA b6/b7C redaction boxes obscure names, addresses, and signatures
Handwritten portions are partially illegible
Typed body text is clearly legible
Some handwritten annotations at bottom are difficult to read
