To Whom It May Concern:
Pursuant to the North Dakota Open Records Law, I hereby request the following records:
I am requesting copies of public records regarding the public funding of commercial drivers' license training programs from 01/01/2018 to 12/31/2022. These programs are designed to prepare students to meet the qualifications to become a qualified entry-level commercial truck driver. Funds for these programs were made available through the Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act.
Specifically, I request information regarding the following:
- Budget documents for the full date range noted above, including planning documents, proposals, and research reports
- Spending reports
- Communications, including internal emails, press releases, and meeting notes and transcripts, that include the phrase "commercial drivers' license"
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 business days.
Sincerely,
Rachel Premack

Rachel,
The North Dakota Department of Transportation (ND DOT) does not provide CDL training. CDL training is performed by entities outside of ND DOT and that information can be found here at our website: NDDOT - Driving Schools<https://www.dot.nd.gov/divisions/driverslicense/drivingschools.htm#cdldrivingschools>

Dear Mr. Barreth,
Thank you for response. To confirm, does NDDOT provide any funding to the truck driving schools in North Dakota?
Thank you.
Best,
Rachel
