Good Afternoon,
I am performing an audit of incomplete requests previously managed by MPD. I have located the request below and am wondering if you could let me know by 9/16 if you received data in response to this request. I don't appear to have a complete outline of the request so if you did not receive any data any clarification on the types of records you are requesting would be helpful.
Thank you,
Kristen
