Mr. Waltman:

Just an update, sir. I requested another search be conducted as it appeared there were some potential records not originally included. I wanted to include those within what I sent you, so I had them requested to be forwarded to me. I've gone through some of them already and just need to complete the research of the records for any necessary redactions. This should be all of what needed to be included though. I'll try to get this completed in the next 2 weeks and I'll email you the cost bill.
