Dear Mr. Harris:

The San Diego County Sheriff's Department, as well as representatives from the other agencies that staff the San Diego Law Enforcement Coordination Center (SD-LECC) are still in the process of reviewing the records that are responsive to your records request.

If you have concerns that you would like to discuss with me, I can be reached at (858) 974-2258.

Dear Mr. Harris:

The San Diego County Sheriff's Department is in receipt of your email of January 13, 2017 to the San Diego Law Enforcement Coordination Center (SD-LECC) seeking records pursuant to the California Public Records Act (CPRA). The Sheriff's Department previously extended the response date pursuant to Government Code section 6252(c).
Preliminarily, it must be stated that the LECC is not a "public agency" within the meaning of the California Public Records Act. It is a work location staffed with personnel from multiple local, state, and federal agencies working towards common operating goals, akin to a law enforcement "task force". While a task force may, under certain circumstances, such as when a joint powers authority is formed, be considered a "public agency" within the meaning of the California Public Records Act and the Brown Act, those circumstances do not exist with regard to the SD-LECC.

Nevertheless, the Sheriff's Department, with the cooperation of the member agencies that staff the SD-LECC has, in the spirit of public disclosure and openness, decided to respond to the request as if the SD-LECC were a self-contained, distinct public agency. In doing so, we have construed your request (as we believe we must) to be directed towards the SD-LECC, as opposed to each and every member agency of the SD-LECC, or to the San Diego County Sheriff's Department. The Sheriff's Department has agreed to draft this response on behalf of the SD-LECC.

The Sheriff's Department now responds to each component of your request (interspersed below, in different color type) as follows:

A copy of all contracts with Palantir Technologies Inc, aka Palantir.
Attached to this email is the contract with Palantir, as well as the subsequent amendments. The documents have been partially redacted to remove information that is exempt pursuant to Government Code sections 6254(c), 6254(f), and 6254.15.

Any research, interviews, reports or analysis generated prior to LECC selecting Palantir as a vendor.

Attached is a May 14, 2013 letter from the Sheriff to the Board of Supervisors, a draft of a Request for Sole Source Procurement Authorization, and several emails (partially redacted) that are responsive to this component of the request.

Any audits, progress statements, performance assessments, or internal or external reports concerning Palantir's software, hardware or services for LECC.

The LECC has no records responsive to this request

Any summary documents detailing annual payments to Palantir.

Attached is an Excel document detailing payments made to Palantir.

Sincerely,

WILLIAM D. GORE, Sheriff
