Dear Mr. Nash,
It was a pleasure speaking with you yesterday. Thank you for agreeing to
narrow the scope of your request. I have reviewed our documents and
confirmed that the Case Closing Memorandum for the investigation titled
Relationship Between GSA, CFO Employees and Booze (sic) Allen & Hamilton
Employees Regarding Pegasys Contract will most likely meet your needs.
Accordingly, we will proceed with preparing that document for release
pursuant to the FOIA. If my understanding of our agreement is incorrect,
please let me know as soon as possible.
Sincerely,
Nicole S. Matthis
