Dear Director Yasay,

Greetings of peace and goodwill!

We are the students at Mindanao State University at Naawan taking up a course Bachelor of
Science in Fisheries. We had successfully defended our thesis proposal entitled: “Evaluation
of the Total Heterotrophic and Coliform Bacterial Count in Horn Snail Telescopium
telescopium (Linnaeus 1758) Under Varied Depuration Time” last semester of A.Y 2022-
2023. We are currently in the implementation phase of our thesis.

In connection with this, we are respectfully and humbly writing this letter to you to seek
permission for the use of equipment and laboratory facilities in BFAR – Lala, Lanao del
Norte. Although we will be in the laboratory upon your approval, we can assure you that the
operation of the BFAR will not be hampered or jeopardized. The duration of the study will be
two weeks from January 15 until 26, 2024. Wherein, one week will be allocated for the
preliminary conduct while the succeeding week will be used for the proper implementation of
our thesis. Moreover, the consumable materials including consumed chemicals and reagents
will be replaced by the team.

Should there be questions or clarifications, please do not hesitate to contact us at: i) Mobile
number - 09750487880; and ii) Email - keanncarlo.branzuela@msunaawan.edu.ph

Thank you so much for your unwavering support and keep safe always.

Respectfully yours,
Keann Carlo F. Branzuela
