To Whom It May Concern:
Pursuant to the Maine Freedom of Access Act ("FOAA"), I hereby request the following records:
A copy of all granted permits to feed garbage to swine or other livestock animals.
I also request that, if appropriate, fees be waived as we believe this request is in the public interest, as suggested but not stipulated by 1 M.R.S.A. § 408(6). The requested documents will be made available to the general public free of charge as part of the public information service at MuckRock.com, processed by a representative of the news media/press and is made in the process of news gathering and not for commercial usage.
In the event that fees cannot be waived, I would be grateful if you would inform me of the total charges in advance of fulfilling my request. I would prefer the request filled electronically, by e-mail attachment if available or CD-ROM if not.
Thank you in advance for your anticipated cooperation in this matter. I look forward to receiving your response to this request within 10 business days, as the statute requires.
Sincerely,
Evan Anderson

Good Morning,
I apologize for the delayed response. You have requested certain documents under Maine's Freedom of Access Act (FOAA), 1 M.R.S.A. §401 et seq. You have requested the following:
· A copy of all granted permits to feed garbage to swine or other livestock animals
After a thorough review of our records was conducted it was determined that no records exist. This practice does not occur in Maine as there is no need or desire.
If you have any other questions please don't hesitate to contact me.
Thank you,
Jessica
