To Whom It May Concern:

Pursuant to the Arizona Public Records Law, I hereby request the following records:

Mr. Tom Augherton
Executive Director, AZ State Board of Massage Therapy
1740 W. Adams, Suite 3401
Phoenix, AZ 85007

Dear Mr. Augherton,

Pursuant to the state open records law Ariz. Rev. Stat. Ann. Secs. 39-121 to 39-122, I write to request access to and a copy of:

• all records and fields from the database of all licenses with license numbers, including but not limited to names, addresses, employers, license numbers, type of license, and information on license suspensions, revocations, probations, surrenders, postponements, and disciplinary actions
• all records and fields from a database of complaints on those licenses (with license numbers) (complainant zip code, name of massage therapist, who the complaint is against, address, employer, license number, type of license, zip code, and a summary of allegations), including any results of subsequent investigations If your agency does not maintain these public records, please let me know who does and include the proper custodian's name and address.
• any lookup tables, code sheets, dictionaries and other documents needed to interpret the data.

The requested documents will be made available to the general public, and this request is not being made for commercial purposes. Whenever possible, I prefer to receive the information in electronic format, especially if electronic copies will lower the cost of production. 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 filed electronically, by email attachment if available.

If you choose to deny this request, please provide a written explanation for the denial, including a reference to the specific statutory exemption(s) upon which you rely, as well as documentation of any redaction based on the law. Also, please provide all segregable portions of otherwise exempt material.

I would note that willful violation of the open records law can result in the award of legal costs, including damages and reasonable attorney fees. See Ariz. Rev. Stat. Ann. Sec. 39-121.02.

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,

Yael Grauer
