Dear Mr. Smathers:
Attached please find the partial release to FOIA Case 11-OIA-0017 as requested in inquiry referenced above. Unfortunately FOIA Case 11-OIA-0019 was denied in full so there are no responsive records to release.
Again, sorry for the delay but I can assure you we will do a much better job of turning these case’s around in a more timely manner. Thanks for your patience.
