We are familiar with the MuckRock submission process but no other mailing
address and/or contact information was provided. In the future it would
help with proper addressing if you included your contact information in the
initial request.

From: Jimmy Tobias

Sounds great. In the future I will include my personal mailing address. It is 124 Washington Place, New York NY 10014.

Mr. Tobias,

Our staff in D.C. have begun the search process for your recent requests
but they're hoping to limit the search scope and duplication with the
additional request being processed by the region. Do you have a date window
for the CVP/WIIN search for Brenda Burman?

Thank you,
Jesse

From: Jimmy Tobias

Hi Jesse,

Thanks for the note. The date window for this request is from August 1, 2017 to the date this request was processed.

Thanks so much!

I'm not sure if anyone has responded to this request for status but I
believe the documents have been collected and are currently going through
solicitor review, you should hear something soon. The documents are related
to political appointees and there's an additional review process to ensure
exempted information is redacted. If there are redactions you will be
notified of the applicable exemption.
