The procedure I outlined for editing a PDF would work just fine for your PDF.
That said (written), one might question your motivation for editing the content of an official U.S. Government report, even though it is unclassified. Why are you trying to edit the attached report? Have you considered the possibility that unauthorized altering of the content of such a report may be unlawful? If you're simply using the PDF to learn how to edit a PDF, I'd suggest you use an example that is not as likely to cause G-men to come knocking at your door.

I have a bunch of PDF files in which I just want to blank out the text. As I read the threads of this particular post, I got an idea of replacing any textby doing this (SOME TEXT) Tj to ( ) Tj But when I converted my pdf file to ps using pdf2ps, I did not see any of such structures. Still the ps file could be viewed using ghostscript viewer. I dont know if my PDF is encoded in some sense. Is there any other way text is rendered in ps? I have attached my original PDF and converted PS file for your reference. Sorry if it sounds very naive. I am pretty new to this whole thing. Thank you, Sarath <snip>
