The requested documents will be made available to the general public, and this request is not being made for commercial purposes.
As a freelance journalist, I expect to be placed in your news media category. As evidence of my publication record, here are links to some of my stories:

Dear Ms. Cornell,
Last year the Department of the Interior transitioned to FOIAonline, a secure web-based tracking and case-management system. As part of the transition, new tracking numbers were generated for many open FOIA requests. As you have five or more open FOIA requests, please find attached a chart with your requests pending in the Office of the Secretary’s FOIA Unit, including each request’s original and corresponding FOIAonline request numbers. We hope you find this helpful in any future correspondence with the Office of the Secretary’s FOIA Unit.
If, upon review, you are no longer interested in any of these requests, we would be happy to assist you in closing them in FOIAonline, if that proved more convenient for you than withdrawing them directly from FOIAonline. Please note that unless and until you contact the Office of the Secretary’s FOIA Unit and ask for a particular request or requests to be withdrawn, we will continue processing all of these requests.
Please do not hesitate to reach out with any questions.
Thank you,
Leah Fairman

Dear Ms. Cornell,
The Office of the Secretary FOIA Office is reaching out regarding your FOIA request DOI-OS-2020-000783 (legacy # OS-2020-00345) made on February 24, 2020. Your request sought “Copies of email communications in the Office of the Secretary (in which to and from fields contain "@ios.doi.gov") that include the keyword "kortlander." This request seeks emails from January 2017 to the date this request is processed."
We are reaching out to you to see if you would be willing to narrow your request to excl ude emails where the only mention is other FOIAs with the word “kortlander”. When we originally pulled records, there were a lot of FOIA backlog reports that kept pulling up your request and maybe a couple other requesters. The FOIA backlog report shows the numbers of any backlogged requests or appeals from the fiscal year. We did find meeting invites, etc which we assume that you are interested in. In short, if we can pull the records that are topically responsive and not just use the keyword, it will help us conduct our search and provide you with records that you would be interested in. Please let us know. Thanks, Cindy Sweeney

Hi Cindy,
Thank you so much for following up, and sorry for my delay in response. That's a great idea. Yes, let's "exclude emails where the only mention is other FOIAs."
Regards,
Maraya
