GA DOC contracts/MOUs re: McRae Correctional Facility

To Whom It May Concern:

Pursuant to the Georgia Open Records Act, I hereby request the following records:

All contracts (and their amendments) and memorandums of understanding entered into by the Georgia Department of Corrections for services and activities related to the McRae Correctional Facility (https://www.cca.com/facilities/mcrae-correctional-facility)

I also request that, if appropriate, fees be waived as I believe this request is in the public interest. The requested documents will be made available to the general public free of charge as part of the public information service at MuckRock.com, processed by a representative of the news media/press and is made in the process of news gathering and not for commercial usage.

In the event that fees cannot be waived, I would be grateful if you would inform me of the total charges in advance of fulfilling my request. I would prefer the request filled electronically, by e-mail attachment if available or CD-ROM if not.

Thank you in advance for your anticipated cooperation in this matter. I look forward to receiving your response to this request within 3 business days, as the statute requires.

Sincerely,

Beryl C.D. Lipton

Hi there,

Can you confirm that there are no responsive materials regarding operations at McRae? Although it is a federal facility, it is not uncommon for the federal government to enter into intergovernmental services agreements with local agencies for management or other services at such locations or to amend preexisting agreements regarding other facilities or matters. If you could verify the existence or nonexistence of materials responsive to the amended language of this request copied below, it would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks so much,
Beryl
