To Whom It May Concern:
This is a request under the Freedom of Information Act. I hereby request the following records:
All records related to the changes made to the GAO’s Key Issues webpage dealing with the management of federal oil and gas resources: http://www.gao.gov/key_issues/oil_and_natural_gas/issue_summary - these changes include the removal of information about hydraulic fracturing and its public health risks and language describing continuing federal oversight challenges following the 2010 Deepwater Horizon oil spill.
The requested documents will be made available to the general public, and this request is not being made for commercial purposes.
In the event that there are fees, 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 20 business days, as the statute requires.
Sincerely,
Sarah Lamdan
