From: Joseph Uchill
To Whom It May Concern:
Pursuant to the Massachusetts Public Records Law, M.G.L. c.66, §10, I hereby request the following records:
Receipts, purchase orders, and requests for requisition or reimbursement for the purchase for phone and/or tablet applications (apps).
I also request that, if appropriate, fees be waived as we believe this request is in the public interest, as suggested but not stipulated by the recommendations of the Massachusetts Supervisor of Public Records. 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.
I expect the request to be filled in an accessible format, including for screen readers, which provide text-to-speech for persons unable to read print. Files that are not accessible to screen readers include, for example, .pdf image files as well as physical documents.
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,
Joseph Uchill

Dear Mr. Uchill,
The Department has received your public records request seeking "Receipts, purchase orders, and requests for requisition or reimbursement for the purchase for phone and/or tablet applications (apps)." This has been forwarded to me for review. I write to request additional information. Specifically, please let me know the period of time for which you seek this information. Moreover, if you would also let me know the division(s), section(s), Department member(s) names, and/or phone numbers, for which you seek this information, that will also assist me in processing your request.
Going forward, be advised that the Department may send you a good faith estimate for the cost of responding to your inquiry because, pursuant to the Massachusetts Public Records Law, a records custodian may charge and recover a fee for the time he or she spends searching for and segregating responsive material. Moreover, any response by the Department will be subject to the Public Records Law exemptions set forth in G.L. c. 4, sec. 7, cl. 26. Please note your request may take more than ten days to process.
