Imm igration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) are in receipt of your request for training for the
Arkansas State Police.

On October 24, 2007, the 287(g) PMO at ICE Headquarters forwarded your request to the
Special Agent in Charge SAC New Orleans, and the Field Office Director (FOD) of Detention
and Removal Operations, FOD New Orleans. Local representatives from these two divisions

(b:i@ilij(7)(t )

The Arkansas State Police have formally withdrawn their request to participate in the 287(g) program. Instead, they have asked
ICE to provide local training to enhance their officers knowledge of documents, ICE contacts, records checks and the immigration
process.

I have highlighted their information in red and will remove it from the next update.

Thanks,

William M. Black
287(g) Program Manager
SAC New Orleans, LA
