To Whom It May Concern:
Pursuant to the Georgia Open Records Act, I hereby request the following records:

I would like these records in electronic format, transmitted via email or another digital method; please refrain from sending paper copies of the records. If you anticipate that providing me with all responsive records will take longer than two weeks, I ask that you provide records to me on a rolling basis as they become available. In any event, do not destroy any records that may potentially contain responsive documents.
If you determine that any of the information I’ve requested qualifies for an exemption from disclosure, I ask you to note whether the exemption is discretionary and if so whether it is necessary in this case to exercise your discretion to withhold the information. In any event, please provide a signed notification citing the legal authorities on which you rely if you determine that any of the information is exempt and will not be disclosed.
Please waive any applicable fees; this information is being sought for reporting purposes. As I am making this request as a journalist and this information is timely, I would appreciate your communicating with me by telephone if you have questions regarding this request. If I can provide any clarification that will help expedite the processing of my request, please contact me directly, at 718.360.6359, or at bdavis@insider.com.
