Hello Kellie,
I am hoping you can help me figure out what is going on with this request. I have received quite a few follow up emails from the DOS, all of them referencing various tracking numbers. This is confusing as the first tracking number given for this request on 6/27/2023 was: F-2023-10276. Below is a listing of each tracking number referenced in follow up emails and the dates I received them.
CL-2023-00156 --7/28/2023
CL-2023-00175 --11/6/2023
CL-2023-00178 --11/6/2023
CL-2023-00182 --11/6/2023
CL-2023-00194 --11/6/2023
Please help clarify which requests those tracking numbers are for and why these emails are being sent to this specific request.
Thank You,
MuckRock Staff
From: U.S. Department of State
Dear Mr. Topic,
You have contacted the FOIA Public Liaison at the Department of State. The FOIA Public Liaison assists requesters in reducing delays, increasing transparency and the understanding of the status of requests, and assists in the resolution of disputes of their Freedom of Information Act Requests. This is in response to your e-mail concerning your request, F-2023-10276.
I researched your request and can verify that it was closed on February 29, 2024, when a response letter was e-mailed to you from Destinee McGhee. I have attached a copy of the correspondence.
In regard to the additional CL case numbers that you reference, the only case associated with you is F-2023-10276. Those automated messages appear to have been generated in error. You should not receive any additional correspondence regarding any CL cases.
I hope you find this information helpful.
Sincerely,
U.S. Department of State
FOIA Program Manager/FOIA Public Liaison
