Dear FOIA Officer,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I am writing to request records under the Freedom of Information Act (5 U.S.C. 552).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In 2022, the Commission of Fine Arts granted two FOIA requests as full grants. I am requesting copies of the original FOIA requests and the full grant letters for these two cases. Please note that I am not seeking the responsive records, only the original FOIA requests and the full grant letters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
As an “all other requester,” I understand that I may be charged fees for search, duplication, and review. I am willing to pay up to a maximum of $5.00 for processing this request. Please notify me if the costs will exceed this amount before proceeding.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Please note that I am not requesting a fee waiver or expedited processing for this request.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
If my request is denied in whole or part, I ask that you justify all deletions by reference to specific exemptions of the act. I will also expect you to release all segregable portions of otherwise exempt material. I reserve the right to appeal your decision to withhold any information.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Should you have any questions about handling this request, you may contact me at the above address.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Thank you for your consideration of this request.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Yours in service of the republic,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Dear Mr. Bolin,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
We are in receipt of your Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request, dated January 13, 2024 and received January 16, 2024.

Please refer to this reference number in subsequent correspondence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
We have determined that your request may be categorized as non-commercial, other in the normal processing track and note is made that a fee waiver is not requested. We will respond to your request within the next twenty work days.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Thank you and please let us know if you have questions or need additional information.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Sincerely,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
