The requested documents will be made available to the general public, and this request is not being made for commercial purposes. In order to help to determine my status for purposes of determining the applicability of any fees, you should know that I am a representative of the news media, and this request is made as part of news gathering (i.e. again, not for a commercial use).
I am willing to pay fees for this request up to a maximum of $100.00 USD. In the event that there are fees, I would be grateful if you would inform me of the total charges in advance of fulfilling my request. I would prefer the request filled electronically, by e-mail attachment if available or CD-ROM if not. I also include a telephone number (917.859.1266) at which I can be contacted during the hours of 9:00 am to 9:00pm, if necessary, to discuss any aspect of my request.
