To Whom It May Concern:
This is a request under the Freedom of Information Act. I hereby request the following records:
- On April 20, 2017, media outlets reported that the Secret Service will permanently close the sidewalk along the south fence of the White House (see http://www.reuters.com/article/us-usa-whitehouse-security-idUSKBN17M05B). I am requesting any cost assessments and funding or budget allocation records for this closure.
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 email 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,
Joshua Eaton
