Georgia Utility Records

To Whom It May Concern:

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

All records between individuals within the Office of the Governor of Georgia and individuals with the following organizations:

- Georgia Power
- Southern Company
- Georgia Public Service Commission

As used above, the term “records” includes, without limitation, all communications, correspondence, records of phone conversations, text messages, encrypted messaging services, transcripts of testimony, minutes or notes of meetings, electronic mail, PowerPoint or other similar presentations, memoranda, reports, maps, photographs, drawings, data, tables, spreadsheets, formulas, notes, observations, impressions, contracts, and policies or directives, whether in an electronic or print medium, original or copy, or draft or final form.

The timeframe of this public records request is between January 1, 2017 and the date of this filing.

The requested documents will be made available to the general public, and this request is not being made for commercial purposes. Therefore I am requesting a waiver of any fees.

In the event that there are fees, 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,

Daniel Tait

Ms. Barnes,

Thanks for sending over this letter. Can you check to see what the costs would be if we limit the records to only emails between individuals working in the Office of the Governor and the 3 companies listed since Jan. 1, 2017?

Thanks!
Daniel

Ms. Barnes,

Perhaps it would be best to chat by phone with Mr. Miller? I'm not sure how else to narrow the request. I'm looking for all emails between the staff and @southernco.com. That should be a relatively simple request.
