To Whom It May Concern:

Pursuant to the California Public Records Act, I hereby request the following records:

Documents pertaining to each Department's, each Division's, protocols, requirements, SOP's, regarding the payment of LAUSD contractors, day laborers, and vendors.
Scans in PDF format of the complete manual for software or all methods of payment transmittal.
For instances where schools or the District (LAUSD) pays contractors, day laborers, vendors, in person or by mail I request documents scanned to PDF format displaying standard operating protocols, requirements, procedures as well. This should be done on a school by school basis with point of contact, and where all necessary by Department with point of contact.

The requested documents will be made available to the general public, and this request is not being made for commercial purposes.

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 10 calendar days, as the statute requires.

Sincerely,

Remy Noìchlaf
