Dear FOIA Officer:

Pursuant to the Freedom of Information Act, I hereby request the following records:

The “after action report" or “lessons learned” document written in or around 2007 regarding the DOI's October 2006 contract with Lockheed Martin and Denali Systems to develop a department-wide Incident Management, Analysis, and Reporting System (IMARS) for DOI law enforcement bureaus.

The requested documents will be made available to the general public, and this request is not being made for commercial purposes.

As a freelance journalist, I expect to be placed in your news media category. As evidence of my publication record, here are links to some of my stories:

https://www.nationalgeographic.com/animals/2018/11/zoos-protect-animals-fire-disaster/
https://www.nationalgeographic.com/environment/2018/11/how-california-fire-catastrophe-unfolded/
https://news.nationalgeographic.com/2018/02/wildlife-watch-sea-cucumbers-illegal-wildlife-trade-coral-reefs/

I request a fee waver on the grounds that this information is likely to contribute significantly to public understanding of the operations of the government — i.e., the progress, efficiency, and effectiveness of key governmental IT projects. This request is not being made for commercial purposes.

However, if you do require fees, I would be grateful if you would inform me if the total charges exceed $25.

I would prefer the request filled electronically, by e-mail attachment if available or CD-ROM if not.

I look forward to receiving your response to this request within 20 business days, as the statute requires.

Thank you very much for your time.

Sincerely,

Maraya Cornell

From: Department of Interior, Office of the Secretary

Dear Daylyn,

Thank you for your response.

One question -- The last sentence in the second paragraph of Ms. Julka's letter reads, "You also agreed to limit your search to only emails." Is this a copy and paste error? I do not want my request to be limited to searches of emails. Please advise.

Also, please give me an estimated date of completion for my request.

Thank you!
Maraya

From: Department of Interior, Office of the Secretary

Dear Ms. Cornell,

At this time, we are still waiting on the program offices to send us all
potentially responsive records for the request that you inquired about as
we do not retain records in the OS FOIA office. Once we have those
records, we can begin processing them. While we cannot provide you a
timeline at this point, please be assured we are working to complete your
request as promptly as we can.
Thanks,

Cindy Sweeney
