To Whom It May Concern:

Pursuant to the Freedom of Information Act, I hereby request the following records:

The full list of flights recorded in the department's "OAS-2U UAS Flight Use Reporting Form." I request that a database dump with all available columns be released.

I have reason to believe the department's Office of Aviation Services manages its fleet of unmanned aircraft systems. That is spelled out by the document "DOI OPERATIONAL PROCEDURES MEMORANDUM (OPM) - 11", You can see the document here: https://www.doi.gov/sites/doi.gov/files/opm-11.pdf You may wish to forward this request to their office.

That document also specifies that form OAS-2U should be filled out to record each flight. The form is available online here: https://amdtrainingdivision.az1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_5h8QBAMfoIjMM9T

The requested documents will be made available to the general public, and this request is not being made for commercial purposes.

In the event that there are fees, I would be grateful if you would inform me of the total charges in advance of fulfilling my request. I would prefer the request filled electronically, by e-mail attachment if available or CD-ROM if not.

Thank you in advance for your anticipated cooperation in this matter. I look forward to receiving your response to this request within 20 business days, as the statute requires.

Sincerely,

Ben Welsh
