Dear Chelsea, Your patience is greatly appreciated during the trying time the agency has endured with the furlough; we are trying to conduct business as usual. In regards to your FOIA pertaining to drone and other aviation equipment that may be used or considered at the Fiftieth Woodstock Festival in Bethel, New York for this coming August, our Flight Standards District Offices have not been contacted by anyone regarding this matter.
Should you still require this information, feel free to contact me in the near future. At that time, we may have responsive information to provide you.
If my email response does not suffice, please advise if you prefer a formal signed response.

Dear Chelsea, As a follow-up to my first 2 emails (see below) to you, I have yet to get a response from you. Per the request of your FOIA, which stated "E-mail (preferred)" with a reference number, I have followed your request and provided 2 emails with a "no records" response.
Therefore, since I have not heard back from you, I will consider your FOIA closed.
Feel free to contact me regarding any FOIA matters.
Thank you.
