    Subject: FOIA request (FWS-2010-00041)

    Ms. Gonzalez:

    There has been a misunderstanding. As shown below, I reported that Beverly Yoshioka was working on a response toyou with the documents. Actually, she was preparing a draft response with the documents for our Regional Solicitor to

    review before release. So the response will not come as quickly as I originally thought.

    You had requested a "certified copy" of the Cooperative Agreement with Puerto Rico Land and Fruit. I have requestedadvice from our Regional Solicitor before any release can be made because there was a question about whether some

    information contained in the agreement could be released.

    I apologize for my error in this matter.

    Subject FOIA request

    Dear Ms. Purdy:

    This is a follow-up on a FOIA request we submitted last September regarding a Cooperative Agreement with

    Mr. Vctor Gonzlez and/or PR Land Fruit SE USFWS #4018181565. Since this document has not yet been

    release, we will like to amend the initial request and ask for a certified copy of the Agreement.

    We understand that investigations and release may take time, but this is a pressing matter. Therefore, we

    respectfully request that you release the certified copy of the Agreement as soon as possible.

    Thanks for your help on this regard,

    --
