1.听听听This procedure shall apply to all requests for access to public records received by the administrative offices of the 最快开奖直播搅珠结果.
2.听听听Requests for access to 最快开奖直播搅珠结果 public records should be made in writing and should include a specific description of the desired documents. All steps taken to comply with such requests should be documented in writing and should include a specific description of the documents that were made available.
3.听听听Public documents requested under the Right-to-Know Law must be made available within a reasonable time. That reasonable time is determined with respect to the circumstances of the particular request. The greater the administrative time and effort required to comply with a request, the greater the time that will be considered "reasonable." In the event a reply will take longer than a few days, a letter should be sent acknowledging receipt of the request and estimating when a substantive reply will be available.
4.听听听The Right-to-Know Law does not specify a particular method by which access to public records must be allowed. Access will ordinarily be afforded by providing photocopies of the requested materials. In some instances alternate methods -- such as allowing personal review of a particularly voluminous file -- may be more appropriate.
5.听听听A public agency may charge a fee for providing access to its public records. That fee should be calculated to cover the variable costs incurred by the agency in providing access to the records. The basic fee for producing photocopies of 最快开奖直播搅珠结果 records shall be $.10 per page. Other variable costs incurred, e.g. personnel salary and benefits, may be charged in appropriate cases.
6.听听听While 最快开奖直播搅珠结果 has an obligation to provide the public with reasonable access to its public records, the System must also respect the privacy interests of persons who are the subject of confidential, or otherwise exempted, information contained in those records. A 最快开奖直播搅珠结果 record must be reviewed in its entirety before it is released in order to ensure that no confidential or otherwise exempted information is included.
7.听听听Other types of records exempted from the public access requirement include personnel records, student records, internal memoranda and draft reports, privileged documents (e.g. lawyer-client communication), records pertaining to litigation, collective bargaining, real estate negotiations, and records containing certain types of confidential commercial or financial information.
8.听听听It is possible that only a portion of the information contained in a 最快开奖直播搅珠结果 record will be subject to public access under the Right-to-Know Law. In such cases 最快开奖直播搅珠结果 must make a reasonable effort to provide access to the public portions of the record. For instance, a redacted photocopy of the document may be provided.
9.听听听The legislature has provided for private enforcement of the Right-to-Know law by suit in the Superior Courts. Plaintiffs are entitled to an expeditious hearing and, if successful, reimbursement for their attorneys' fees and costs. The General Counsel should be consulted whenever questions arise as to the appropriate response to a request for 最快开奖直播搅珠结果 records.
10.听听听This procedure shall be effective immediately and shall continue in force until otherwise amended or repealed.
