Re: U.S. Customs and Border Protection Document Production
Pursuant to your electronic message of July 23, 2003, please find enclosed
responses on behalf of U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP). The enclosed
indices indicate which documents respond to which questions.
The documents provided are for the 9/11 Commission's official use only and may
not be used for any other purpose. While the documents provided under this cover
are not classified, some items are law enforcement sensitive in that their disclosure
would he'p enable persons to evade detection by law enforcement. Other
documents may contain personally identifiable information about law enforcement
officers (e.g., Social Security Numbers) that ordinarily would be withheld from
public disclosure. Therefore, these documents are being released to you on
condition that they may not be disclosed to the public without prior written
authorization of this agency.
As you are aware, several weeks ago, CBP and the 9/11 Commission, scheduled
at the 9/11 Commission's request, the week of September 8,2003, for CBP to
make documents available to the 9/11 Commission, This arrangement is similar to
arrangements CBP (then Customs) had made with the Joint Inquiry Staff, and
would have minimized the Commission's document review burden. CBP has made
every effort to fully comply with the 9/11 Commission's request and the
rescheduled deadline. Any question or concern about the completeness of this
response results from the accelerated deadline and not the commitment of CBP to
provide the Commission with the documents and information requested.
If you have any questions regarding this production of documents, or have any
supplemental requests, please coordinate them through the Department of
Homeland Security point of contact, John Mitnick, or his designee.
Sincerely,
