FOIA APPEAL

Dear Appeals Authority,

This is an appeal under the Freedom of Information Act.

On April 10, 2014 I made a FOIA request for "A copy of all studies, recommendations, orders, directions, meeting minutes and other records created discussing the discontinuation of trout breeding at willow beach fish hatchery and the stocking of trout in the Colorado river."

Over two months have passed, which exceeds the statutory deadline. Therefore, I appeal the constructive denial of my request.

Please provide the requested records.

Regards,
Jason Smathers
