I did not receive your still interested letter. I did however send twelve requests for status updates that were not answered. Thus, I was clearly still interested and the request should not have been closed.

In light of this, can you please continue processing this request keeping its original position in the queue.

Thank you.

Regards,
Jason Smathers

Mr. Smathers,

Good Afternoon.

On several occasions we have provided the attached letter officially closing the case addressed below on May 15, 2012.

Please resubmit your request containing a reasonable description of the records you are seeking. Upon receipt of a new request, you will be advised as to the status of your request.

Please ensure your request is not too broad in scope and specifically identifies the records which you are seeking. Records must be described in reasonably sufficient detail to enable government employees who are familiar with the subject area to locate records without placing an unreasonable burden upon the agency. For this reason, §5.3(b) of the DHS regulations, 6 C.F.R. Part 5, require that you describe the records you are seeking with as much information as possible to ensure that our search can locate them with a reasonable amount of effort. Whenever possible, a request should include specific information about each record sought, such as the date, title or name, author, recipients, and subject matter of the records, if known, or the DHS component or office you believe created and/or controls the record. The FOIA does not require an agency to create new records, answer questions posed by requesters, or attempt to interpret a request that does not identify specific records.

Feel free to contact us at 702-235-2211.

Thank you
Sandy Ford Page
Chief, FOIA Operations
NPPD
