Dear Mr. Evans:
We received your 16 November 2006 letter appealing our 18 October 2006 response to
National Security Archive's Freedom of Information Act request for all documents from 1980 to the
present date, relating in whole or in part to the Colombian paramilitary and drug trafficker Ramon
Marina Isaza Arango a/k/a El Viejo, and all. documents on the Autodefensas Campesinas del
Magdalena Medio (Peasant Self-Defense Forces of Central Magdalena) faction of the AUC that he
leads.
Specifically, you appealed our determination that we can neither confirm nor deny the
existence or nonexistence of records responsive to your request on the basis of Freedom of
Information, Act exemptions (b)(1) and (b)(3).
Your appeal has been accepted and arrangements will be made for its consideration by the
appropriate members of the Agency Release Panel. You will be advised of the determinations made.
In order to afford requesters the most equitable treatment possible, we handle appeals on a
first-received, first-out basis. At the present time, our workload consists of approximately 180
appeals awaiting completion. In view of this, some delay in our reply must be expected, but I can
assure you that every reasonable effort will be made to complete a response as soon as possible.
