The records being made available to you at this time is the metadata spreadsheet we discussed. Thank you for taking the time to chat, by the way.
This list is the "shorter" list of metadata. Based on our discussion, it is my understanding that this will satisfy your request, and that it may not have a couple of the field/columns that you called out. Please let me know if this is not your understanding. With this, I am closing your request.
To download your records, please:

* Navigate to the Public Records Request Center.
* Select 'My Records Request Center'.
* Select 'View My Requests'. You may be asked to login.
* Select this request: C169558-020124.

* You can download records individually or all at the same time by clicking 'Download All'.
* Please save your records as you may only download them from the system three times. If you do not download your records within 30 days of request closure, the link to your records will expire.
