If you do not have every field I’ve asked for, please provide what fields/information the CHP does have.
I would also like to note that I am not requesting paper records, but electronic information. I can accept this data in a variety of formats, such as CSV, TSV or in a database or statistical software program format. I also can accept the data on a CD, portable drive, or via ftp. I also can provide a link for a file upload.
The requested documents will be made available to the general public, and this request is not being made for commercial purposes.
