Dear Ms. Blue Keating: This office is presently conducting a review of our pending Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) requests to ascertain if the information subject to the request is still desired. Your July 14, 2017 FOIA request is a part of this review (copy enclosed).
We apologize for the delay in responding to your request. However, because of the increasing number of requests received by the Department of Health & Human Services, we found it necessary to adopt the ruling in the case of Open America v. Watergate Special Prosecution Force, 547 F.2d 605 (D.C. Cir. 1976) and exercise due diligence by following a first-in, first-out FOIA processing.
If you are still interested in pursuing this request, please respond to this e-mail and we will complete the processing of your request. Please let me know by September 28, 2023, whether you are. If we have not heard from you by that date, we will assume you are no longer interested in pursuing your request and it will be administratively closed. Should you have any questions, please feel free to email me, kristine.zadrovitz@hhs.gov or contact our inbox at FOIARequest@hhs.gov
