To Whom It May Concern:
Pursuant to the Oregon Public Records Law, I hereby request the following documents:
All policies, procedures, memorandums of agreements, other memos, directives, communications, occurrence reports, and any other relevant materials regarding the reporting, negotiations, control, aftermath, and general treatment of hostages taken or individuals restrained in a hostage-like manner by individuals detained or under the supervision of facilities maintained under the jurisdiction of this agency, including juvenile, local, and private facilities, if applicable. If additional policies are maintained by other agencies, direction indicating such would be greatly appreciated.
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 fees cannot be waived, 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 would request your response within ten (10) business days.

Good morning,
I will have a fee estimate out shortly. Sorry for the delay, either I overlooked the latest request, or didn’t receive the email. My apologies!

Hello Ms. Wilson,
Thanks for your message. I wonder if there was some confusion, because this request regarding hostage policies is mine, but I see that your letter is addressed to another MuckRock user.
I'm looking forward to your next letter, and I really appreciate your help with all of my requests.
Have a lovely weekend,
Beryl

Beryl,
I noticed my error shortly after I sent it. I receive several requests from MuckRock, can you explain to me what the company does, and what the data is used for. I’m having a very difficult time with the hostage policies request because we won’t disclose any of that information. Plus, we have no information regarding anything to do with juveniles. Can you maybe revise your latest request?
Thanks,
Nickie Wilson

Hi there,
I apologize for the radio silence on this request. Would it be possible, if hostage procedures and policies are exempt, to receive a letter saying so, or, if possible, to receive further direction on what is available regarding this request?
Thanks so much. All of your patience is very much appreciated.
Have a lovely afternoon,
Beryl

Again, Doug Young will be the point of contact for this request Doug.E.Young@doc.state.or.us<mailto:Doug.E.Young@doc.state.or.us> please let me know that you received this email. I have sent countless emails to this address without a single reply. If you would like to continue this PRR, I will need a confirmation email stating this is an actual email address.
Thanks you,

Hi there,
I apologize for the follow-ups; we never received your letter regarding Mr. Young. Perhaps there is some confusion on which request is which. This particular one is related to hostage policies. Should it also be sent to Mr. Young? I have another request regarding prison construction that has been sent to him.
Thanks so much,
Beryl

Hi, I’m sorry, I don’t recall every seeing the PRR pertaining to the State/local policies re: hostages within correctional facilities request. Let me see what I can find out about it. I do know that we received a similar request a while back, and we are not able to disclose that information due to the safety and security of our institutions. Let me contact out policies manager and see what she might know.
Thank you,

Good afternoon,
Having reviewed your request, we are able to inform you that all of the above requested information can be found on the Oregon Department of Corrections (DOC) website provided below. I have attached the link.
Also, I attached a fee estimate to proceed with individual list per institution. I think you will find the information you are looking for on our link. I will certainly continue with a detailed per institution documentation a soon as I receive payment. Please note we do not have access to juvenile or private facilities, so you will have to contact them for that information.
Please note this request has been pursued in several similar ways to several employees at DOC from your company each one responded to with an individual LOA and fee estimate. This includes a response to you back in November relating to this same request. Please let me know how you would like to proceed, and let me know if the link included has what you are looking for.
