Ben,
My apologies for the delayed response, I am still out of the office for a few weeks during the summer. But I just saw your FOIA request and am emailing you back now.

Please download the FOIA request form from our website (link below). There is additional information on this webpage regarding our payment and timeline process that I wanted to make sure you saw.

In your description on the request form, please be specific as possible so we are better able to respond to your request in a timely manner.

Ben,
We are working on getting you an estimate for the FOIA request. You should receive an email with an invoice from our Business Office soon.

We did an email search and received about 200 pages worth of results. We decided not to charge you to print all 200 pages and mail it. Instead, we will be mailing you the results on a flash drive.

So, the invoice you receive from our Business Office will have an estimate for the cost of the flash drive, the estimated cost of mailing, and the cost for our two employees time who performed the search based on the details you provided in your FOIA request.

Once the invoice has been paid, the Business Office will let me know, and I can put the flash drive in the mail.

Let me know if you have any questions,
Caitlin
