Dear Mr Smith,
The Governor has directed his staff to aim to be the most transparent
and open Administration in the state's history. As such, I am happy to
provide information whether or not it is a formal open records request.
Some of the information you are looking for is in the following
document's link:

Please feel free to contact me for any additional information.
Sincerely,
David Wu

Subject: Information Request
Dear David Wu,
I have been directed by the Governors switchboard to make this request
to you as the transportation expert in the Governor's office. This is a
an official open records act request for document or documentation of a
Governor Daniels sighted study or report.
In the Governor's televised town hall meeting, "Ask the Governor" on
Wednesday December 28th, Governor Daniels answered a question from
William Boyd with the response, "Do your homework."
The question was regarding the claimed 100,000 jobs that Governor
Daniels claims will result from "Major Moves". Governor Daniels went
on to reference the source of this information as the US Federal Highway
Administration.
As ones who pride ourselves as "doing our homework" on this issue, we
are trying to do just that. We have made contact with FHWA and the
FHWA official stated, he heard the governor's reference to this claimed
FHWA document, but he was not aware of the document.
We here request clear reference and/or if it is in the possession of the
Governors office or any other branch of the State of Indiana in any
form, paper, or electronic or any other, we request copy for which we
will reimburse the state the usual fee for a copied document sent.
I called and left message with your office on your voice mail yesterday,
December 29, 2005 requesting this documentation. Perhaps my request was
not understood as an official request for information. If I have
somehow missed your response, I request that you send new/ timely
acknowledgment of this request to this document.
Thank you,
John Smith
Director COUNT US!

Daniels disclosed his source for the claim of 100,000 jobs with Major
Moves.
It resulted in this Press Release jointly sent out by the groups listed
