I agree to pay reasonable duplication fees for the processing of this
request in an amount not to exceed $25. However, please notify me prior to
your incurring any expenses in excess of that amount.
Please waive any applicable fees. Release of the information is in the
public interest because it will significantly contribute to public
understanding of government operations and activities.
If my request is denied in whole or part, I ask that you justify all
deletions by reference to the specific exemptions of the act. I will also
expect you to release all segregable portions of otherwise exempt material.
I, of course, reserve the right to appeal your decision to withhold any
information or to deny a waiver of fees.
I would appreciate your communicating with me by telephone, rather than by
mail, if you have questions regarding this request. I look forward to your
reply within 20 business days (excluding Saturdays, Sundays and legal
holidays), as the statute requires.
Thank you for your assistance.
