We have received your request for a public record. It is our goal to respond to these requests as soon as possible or within 5 business days.

Record Requested: To Whom It May Concern:

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

2) An inventory of all equipment transferred to your department through the Operations Legend program. If this information is not contained within a single document, I ask that you provide me records documenting each individual equipment intake.

I ask that all fees be waived for this request as I am a journalist and I intend to use the requested public records to publish articles in the public interest and not for any commercial purpose.

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.
