Plaintiff seeks copies of individual waivers for the non-manufacturer rule issued in connection with several solicitations by the U.S. Small Business Administration ("SBA"). The parties conferred and consider SBA's involvement in the action to be resolved. Plaintiff also seeks background information supporting several requested waivers from the Defense Logistics Agency ("DLA"), in addition to copies of several contracts and all contract modifications from DLA. DLA has completed its response to all but one of Plaintiff's FOIA requests. For that FOIA request, DLA is consulting with specific vendors regarding any required withholdings under Exemption 4. As indicated would occur in the last status report, DLA has provided Plaintiff with an update on the consultation process. Plaintiff requests that the Court order an August 12, 2019 deadline for DLA to produce the documents responsive to the remaining request and an August 19, 2019 deadline for the production of remaining documents and a detailed Vaughn index. DLA reports that Plaintiff's request is not feasible as the consultation process is not complete. DLA indicates that the Supreme Court's recent decision in Food Marketing Inst. v. Argus Leader Media, 139 S. Ct. 2356 (2019), has required additional consultations. The Court ORDERS DLA to provide Plaintiff with an update regarding the consultation process on AUGUST 12, 2019.
