Pursuant to the District of Columbia Freedom of Information Act of 1974, D.C. Code Ann. § 2-531 et seq. ("D.C. Act"), I hereby request the following records:

All communications between Executive Office of the Mayor employees, including Vincent Gray, with the Washington Nationals (email search @nationals.com) from August 1, 2013 to the present. I also request diagrams for the proposed roof on Nationals Park.

I also request that, if appropriate, fees be waived as I believe this request is in the public interest. 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 15 business days, as the statute requires.

We spoke on the phone on Jan. 13, 2014 and you said you may not have any responsive records. Just want to confirm that you did not find anything in your office. I have put a separate request into the City Administrator's office as you suggested.

Thanks

Mr. Schmidt-

Thank you for your patience. To date I have received no indication that responsive documents have been located by the Office of the Chief Technology Officer ("OCTO") on behalf of your FOIA request received by the EOM.

I have inquired with OCTO again today and was informed that I should have final search results from them late next week.

Once I receive this information from OCTO I will be able to update you in terms of the status of your request.

Sincerely,

Mikelle

Hi Mr. Schmidt:

I spoke with a representative from OCTO today and was just told that I should have notice of the search results on Tuesday.

I apologize for the delay, however once the search is entered into OCTO I too have to await their findings before proceeding.

I am looping in Karen Andre who is now assisting me with FOIA.
Thanks,

Mikelle L. DeVillier

Hi Mr. Schmidt:

I am no longer at the EOM and do not have access to documents, if any, to prepare a response for you. Unfortunately I have not been with the EOM since January but a designee FOIA Officer was identified to process FOIA requests in my absence.

As you have likely surmised, what was expected to be a temporary move has become permanent.

As such, Karen Andre has been identified as the FOIA Officer for the EOM and she should respond to your inquiry.

Sincerely,
Mikelle
