This is the only record I am requesting at this time. I understand the National Archives and Records Administration may charge for duplication of this record and am willing to pay any costs associated with the request.
I look forward to your response within 20 working days, as the statute requires. If access to the records I am requesting will take longer, please advise of which tier of processing queue this request falls under and an estimated time frame for processing.

Good afternoon,
I'm following up on a request sent previously for access to material from the General Correspondence, Series 320 pertaining to Paul L.E. Helliwell (FOIA 2024-005). I would like to move forward with obtaining digital copies of these records. If possible, please advise of an estimate for the cost of reproduction.
Thank you for your help in processing this request. I appreciate the work the National Archives and Records Administration does in reviewing requests and releasing all eligible records.
Sincerely,
Robert Skvarla, Jr.
From: Nixon Presidential Library & Museum
Hello Mr. Skvarla,
I have scanned the documents in Series 320 folder Helliwell, Paul L. E. and
am attaching the documents as a PDF file. Because there are less than ten
pages, there is no charge for the scanned documents.
To be clear, Series 320 is open to researchers but has not been fully
digitized. Please feel free to contact us directly at
nixonreference@nara.gov if you are interested in any additional materials
held at this facility as the majority of archival records here are not
subject to FOIA.
Best regards,
Carla Braswell
Archivist
