Hi there,

I do apologize in my delay responding, and thank you for following up. We are in the final stages of this request - records are currently being reviewed for responsiveness.

Good morning,

The first installment of records responsive to public records request ID ISS-67005-Y6R4D2 is now available and attached for your review. A second installment will immediately follow this one - all records did not fit in one email.

We anticipate providing you an update regarding your request and/or installment of responsive records in approximately two weeks (I am still waiting to hear from two potential custodians). Please contact me if you have any questions about your request or the records provided.

Thanks,
Elka
