To Whom It May Concern,

I wanted to let you know that I am in receipt of your records request. Unfortunately, I am currently out of the office in training until July 5th and will be unable to respond to you in detail until my return. However, I can say that while our agency has looked at some of the referenced products, we do not currently use any such software, and will not have any records responsive to your request other than #3. I will follow-up on that item in early July.
Regards,
