Dear Mr. Bigwood:

This is in response to your Freedom of Information Act request dated April 23, 2001, wherein you asked for information related to DynCorp Technical Services - "DYNCORP" in Peru.

We conducted a thorough and extensive search of our records. However, we were unsuccessful in locating any information responsive to your request.

Should you determine this to be an adverse action, you have the right to appeal by writing to the Office of the Assistant Secretary of Defense, Director for Freedom of Information and Security Review, Room 2C757, 1155 Defense – Pentagon, Washington, DC 20301_1155, within 60 days of receipt of this letter. Both your letter and envelope should be clearly marked "Freedom of Information Act Appeal." Also, a copy of this letter should be enclosed with your appeal.

Sincerely,

Vanessa Newton
