Hello Ms. Hemmeter,

Could you please clarify which elements of the document you sent are directly related to Eden Detention Center?

Thank you!

Hello Ms. Hemmeter,

Thank you so much for your help with this request. I'm wondering if you could clarify another point. From which paper was the clipping? Also, do there happen to be any other materials related to this agreement? And I'm wondering if there might be someone who could speak with me to clarify the nature of the water and sewage agreement that you provided. It still is unclear to me which elements were included as part of revenue sharing.

Thanks so much for your time and help,
Beryl

Hi Celina,

Thanks so much for your message. The clipping can be found here (https://d3gn0r3afghep.cloudfront.net/foia_files/doc20120517121700.pdf). I'm just curious about what newspaper ran it.

Thanks again for your help!

Great! Thanks so much!

Best wishes,
