I received the following response to my FOIA request:
“In order to continue processing your request, we will require additional information. We are unable to determine what is being sought in your request because the records have not been reasonably described and therefore we will hold your request in a “perfecting status” through October 2, 2020. When a FOIA request is held in a perfecting status, it will not be logged and it will not be assigned to be processed until we receive additional clarification. If we do not hear back from you, we will cancel your request.
Critical information:
· Need the Aircraft Registration Number, and
· Confirm you only want audio re-recordings from the Salt Lake City Airport Traffic Control Tower.”
I’m a bit confused why I need to provide aircraft info as I am simply requesting audio of entire frequences from one time to another. But I will tell them N320NB operating as Delta 2913.
On the location question, are the Approach/Departure and Ground frequencies both located in the SLC tower? Would this flight have likely ever been handed off to the Salt Lake Center?
