Please clarify the following:
You are requesting data for 20 years, and such long time period makes the request large and difficult to process. Would it be acceptable if we provide data for 5 years, or 10 years?
The price per installment will be $1.25. At this time I am unable to determine the number of installments.
At this time, we anticipate that we will be able to provide requested records or a first installment of records on or about 12/12/2023. However, please note that this time estimate may change depending on any clarification you provide and as we continue to process your request.
Sincerely,

Hello Elena,
As stated in my initial request, "The requested documents will be made available to the general public, and this request is not being made for commercial purposes". Additionally, I made the exact same request four months ago (#C141344-062023) and was not asked to fill out a Commercial Purposes Declaration so I am puzzled as to why you are asking me to fill this out.
Thank you,
Rose
