Hi, Mike,

For your request, the results yielded 52,158 items. We charge $23.32 per hour with the first 15 minutes free. Your total estimate cost for this ORR is $45,604.47 Please advise how you wish to proceed.

Thanks.

From: Andrew Free

Can I have a printout of the results list in pdf format or metadata from the results, rather than the emails themselves?

From: Andrew Free

Can you please specify the portion of the cost and time estimate related to item 1 vs item 2 of the request?

From: Atlanta Police Department

Hello,

That is something we do not normally do and would have to create. The emails are kept within their original format and context are combined in a PDF document that would require me to review and redact if needed. That said, I would not be able to just send you the “metadata.”

From: Andrew Free

Do you have a few moments to speak by phone?

From: Atlanta Police Department

Hello,

The difference is the amount of results yielded on your request. Your first request yielded 6,351 items (3.50 GB of data that must be reviewed page per page) vs. your second request which yielded 52,158 items. (102.26 GB of data that must be reviewed and redacted, page by page) We charge $23.32 per hour with the first 15 minutes free.

Your first request: total billable hours: 238.16 hours
Your second request: total billable hours: 1,955.93 hours

From: Atlanta Police Department

Hi,

You can reach me at 404-308-2133

From: Andrew Free

Officer Grant,

Thanks very much for speaking with me this afternoon.

Clarifying, based on our conversation, we’re narrowing to ONLY seek metadata and ONLY seek hits with “@peregrine.io” in the email domain (to/from/cc/bcc).

Really appreciate you taking my call and talking through this with me.

Andrew.

From: Atlanta Police Department

Hi, Andrew, Per your request, here is the metadata spreadsheet.
