Dear Mr. Kaplan:

This letter is to acknowledge receipt of your March 15, 2018, Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request, which was forwarded to the Occupational Safety and Health Administration's (OSHA) Directorate of Enforcement Programs (DEP) for response. Your request has been assigned FOIA tracking number: 854901. Please refer to this number in any future correspondence. We apologize for the delay in acknowledgement, due to the high volume of requests received.

You requested the following:

All complaints of unsafe work environment issues against the Trump Organization and Trump Organization Subsidiaries.

In order to conduct a reasonable search please provide the following:

1) More specificity on complaints of "unsafe work environment issues".

2) Specific time period for which you request a records search be conducted (i.e. 2016-18).

You will be contacted should any additional questions or clarifications arise. While we are aware of the 20 days allotted in the FOIA Statute, please note that DEP currently has a high volume of FOIA requests, and all FOIA's are cleared through the Office of the Solicitor (SOL), which usually protracts processing time. However, you will be periodically updated concerning the status of your request. Please be aware of these considerations while you await your response.

Sincerely,

All complaints of unsafe work environment issues against the Trump Organization and Trump Organization
subsidiaries

Mr. Kaplan,

Your response is currently in clearance and estimated time frame for completion is about two weeks.
