Hello,

The request copied below was initially sent to the federal OSHA FOIA office. During a phone call I had with that office on October 29, 2014, it was explained to me that this request had been forwarded to OSHA's various field offices and that I should expect direct response from each. As yet, I have not received acknowledgement of my request from your office. I am happy to provide clarification as necessary. Confirmation of receipt and an estimated date of completion would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you very much for your help.

Best wishes,
Beryl C.D. Lipton
