Good Afternoon Madeleine Stone-
The New York State Energy Research and Development Authority ("NYSERDA") requires additional time to process your request and review the responsive records to determine whether the records fall under an exemption contained in the NY Public Officers Law section 87(2). I note that this request and your February 2, 2024 request (see below) appear to be seeking the same records. Please advise whether either the February 2 or March 18 can be withdrawn as duplicative. NYSERDA anticipates completing your request, unless you advise us to withdraw it, by June 28, 2024 and will let you know if additional time is needed. Thank you.
February 2, 2024 request
All email correspondences (including email attachments), meeting minutes, and presentation documents from meetings between NYSDERA officials and ICF energy consultant Maurice Oldham that contain one or more of the following search terms:
> Renewable Natural Gas
> RNG
Please limit the search window to email correspondences and meetings that occurred between January 1, 2020 and April 1, 2022.
