Hi Kelly and Michelle,

To answer your question--yes, I am looking for current policies at the moment.

In regards to payment, is it possible to provide the documents as a PDF, which would bypass the cost of printing and postage?

Emily Hopkins

From: McClease, Kelly@CDCR

Hi Ms. Hopkins,

No, even if we provided them electronically, we have to scan and that incurs costs for duplication. Therefore, the charge would remain the same as those provided in the cost letter.

If you have any additional questions or need further assistance, please contact Dennis.Beaty@cdcr.ca.gov<mailto:Dennis.Beaty@cdcr.ca.gov>
