Dear Mr. Stamboulieh:

I refer you to our letter dated March 4, 2019, regarding the release of material under the Freedom
ofInformation Act (the "FOIA"), 5 U.S.C. § 552. The processing of records potentially
responsive to your request is ongoing and has yielded an additional 29 responsive documents.
After reviewing these documents, we have determined that 8 may be released in full, 17 may be
released in part, and 4 must be withheld in full.

An enclosure explains the FOIA exemptions and other grounds for withholding material. For
the documents withheld in full, we have cited FOIA Exemptions 1,5,6, and 7,5 U.S.C.
§§ 552(b)(1), (b)(5), (b)(6), and (b)(7)(E). Where we have made excisions, the applicable FOIA
exemptions are marked on the document. All non-exempt material that is reasonably segregable
from the exempt material is released in the enclosed pages.

We will keep you informed as your case progresses. If you have any questions, please contact
Assistant United States Attorney Marina Braswell at 202-252-2561 or
marina.braswell@usdoj.gov. Please refer to the associated case number, F-2016-07853, and the
civil action number, 1:17-cv-O1585, in all communications regarding this case.
