FOIA Request: Copy of any FOIA requests submitted by Timothy Heaphy and Hunton & Williams

Mr. Nash,
Thank you for your recent Freedom of Information Act request. Due to the
volume of requests and manpower constraints, it is not practical for the
agency to respond in the 5 days permitted under Virginia Freedom of
Information Act. You are hereby notified that, pursuant to §
2.2-3704(B)(4), the agency is entitled to, and here by asserts its right to
claim, seven work days in addition to the five provided for in §
2.2-3704(B) in which to provide one of the responses set forth in §
2.2-3704.

Thank you,

Katie Glasscock, FOIA Unit Supervisor

To Whom It May Concern:

Pursuant to the Virginia Freedom of Information Act, I hereby request the
following records:

Copy of any FOIA requests submitted by Timothy Heaphy and Hunton & Williams
between August 1, 2017 and December 1, 2017. One known request was
submitted on September 15, 2017. Please provide the original request, any
correspondence between the requestor and the Virginia State Police related
to the request and any responsive documents and/or denials related to the
request.

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 5 business
days, as the statute requires.

Please note that I am a citizen of Virginia, and am using MuckRock's
services to help manage and track my request.

Sincerely,

Tom Nash

PLEASE NOTE: This request is not filed by a MuckRock staff member, but is
being sent through MuckRock by the above in order to better track, share,
and manage public records requests. Also note that improperly addressed
(i.e., with the requester's name rather than "MuckRock News" and the
department number) requests might be returned as undeliverable.

Mr. Nash,

Please find attached the file documents regarding correspondence between
this office and Mr. Heaphy in 2017 concerning a FOIA request, as requested.
There is no charge for these documents. Certain redactions were made for
the account number under 2.2-3706. Please be advised that a portion of the
responsive documents, namely the redacted documents sent to Mr. Heaphy and
referenced in the correspondence, were stored digitally. Unfortunately, the
medium containing the digital record has corrupted in the time since the
response to Mr. Heaphy in 2017. As such, the redacted version of the
records is not available.

Please be aware that all of the documents utilized to produce the redacted
record sent to Mr. Heaphy are still available in unredacted form. In order
to produce those records to you, the records will have be redacted once
again. This office is willing to redact the documents for you at no cost.
However, the nature of the redactions for the 2017 request was voluminous
and expended considerable manpower. As such, in order to produce the
documents in redacted form you will have to agree to a minimum of 4-6 weeks
time with an agreement for necessary extensions in advance. This time frame
is necessary to accommodate the current volume of FOIA related work and the
unfortunate delays caused by the coronavirus situation.

I appreciate your understanding in advance. Please advise if you agree to
the time frame referenced above and I will have staff begin work.

Sincerely,
