USADA v Armstrong - Introduction

The introduction of the USADA report summarized that the USADA interviewed multiple team members and that several of those team members are quite prominant. It also stated that financial records had been obtained. The USADA requested to interview Lance Armstrong and that he refused and based upon that refusal, the USADA published their reasoned decision.

Since Lance Armstrong chose not to cooperate with the USADA, they were able to review the information they received and reach their decision. I'm assuming it's called a reasoned decision since the information was not initially reviewed by a nuetral arbitrator.
