OK, OK... I had a cup of coffee.....

Dear Mr. ---------,

Thank you for your letter to Secretary Perry regarding Elio Motors. The Secretary has asked the U.S. Department of Energy's Loan Programs Office (LPO) to respond.

We appreciate your interest in the Loan Programs Office, however, we cannot respond directly to the statements in your letter as it is LPO's policy not to comment publicly on any application under review. Additional information about current projects and funding opportunities may be found on the Department's website (www.energy.gov/lpo).

Thank you again for your interest in the program.

Sincerely,

U.S Department of Energy
Loan Programs Office

Don't get your hopes up, even disclosing the loan has been submitted (much less in process whether denied, in play, or in suspense) just ain't going to happen. There are too many ramifications ranging from business interference to insider trading: I bet even within the immediate DOE decision making circle there are strict rules and controls. Any status will only be known by Elio Motors and a few in the DOE until Elio, alone, chooses to go public, if they do at all.

Could you post a copy of the letter you sent with the email you sent it to? I'd send one as well, but with different wording than what you used so they wouldn't think it was a form letter.:D

Good!
Elio is mentioned by name in the reply. It is stated that they will take the step of forwarding to the loan program department. That is something.
Thanks for sharing this.
