Utility Communications and Calendars

Mr. Tait,

This is to acknowledge receipt of the attached open records request we received on May 9, 2019, and which asks for search terms and e-mail domains as follows:

"southernco.com"
"meagpower.com"
"opc.com"
"Vogtle"

We have queried our system in search of documents responsive to this request and have come across roughly 100 potentially responsive e-mails, not including attachments and other potentially responsive documents which we will look for as well. Fees associated with this request are based on the time it takes to complete the request which includes, but is not limited to, the initial scan of the universe of documents contained within our different systems, eliminating unrelated documents, checking for work product or other privilege, combining documents into a single electronic format that is easily readable and shareable, etc.

The fee calculation is based on time and experience level of the administrative staff and attorneys doing the work. We will always opt for the lowest experience level required to adequately perform the work when fulfilling requests. In your request, you indicated you wanted to be informed of the total charges in advance of fulfilling the request. As you may know, it is very difficult to provide a cost estimate because of the varying issues that may arise when working on different requests. That being said, I would estimate it may cost anywhere between $80 to $100, with the understanding that the cost could fall outside this range. I will make a conscious effort, however, to notify you if I feel that the cost is going to exceed the upper limit of that range when we continue working on this.

We will wait to hear back from you, confirming if these charges are acceptable and that you would like to proceed before we continue your request. In terms of timeframe, I hope to get you the responsive documents within 10 business days from your acceptance of terms.

Please let me know if you have any questions.

Thank you,

Tonna
