track , which means that the estimated completion date for processing and
releasing responsive records will be April 19, 2017.. You have the right
to limit the scope of your request so that it may be processed within the
20 work-day time limit or an opportunity to arrange an alternative time
frame for processing the request. For example, you could limit your request

to limit the date range to the period of January 20, 2017, to the present.

Mr. Morisy,

Regarding your request for any e-mails received by individuals who manage
NPS social media accounts, I have confirmed with the staff in our public
affairs and information technology offices that the NPS Twitter accounts
are not centrally managed. They also have advised me that they do not have
a master list of all accounts and/or the individuals who have
responsibilities for managing those accounts. So at this point we have no
way to determine who needs search for responsive records.

So I'm contacting you to request that you specify which Twitter accounts
you are interested in. Once we have that information, then we can
determine which NPS employees have management responsibilities for those
accounts and request that they conduct a search of their e-mails for the
terms you have requested.

Sincerely,

C.
