From: Brent Thye

To Whom It May Concern:

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

I am requesting, from 01/01/2012 to present, records of: name, position, hire date, official salary or rate of pay (on an annual basis) for anyone with the word 'perfusion' in their job title.

I discussed my request with the Virginia FOIA council and they advised: "Generally speaking, accounting records showing payments made to an individual would be open to public disclosure, but notations regarding the type of pay or reasons for payment may be withheld as personnel information. Please see AO-01-21 which discussed salary/rate of pay, payroll, and accounting records in detail."

Therefore, in addition, I am also requesting accounting records from 01/01/2012 to present showing name and aggregate total annual (calendar year preferred, but fiscal year acceptable) payments made to any individuals with the word 'perfusion' in their job title as well.

If you need any further clarification or if there is any way to reduce the labor required to produce these records in this detail, please let me know.

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.

Sincerely,

Tom Nash, a citizen of Virginia, in coordination with Brent Thye.

Thank you for the data you sent me, however it is only partially what I am seeking. It appears to be each employees' "official salary or rate of pay" but I did not receive accounting records showing their total aggregate payments received each year.

As stated in my original request:
I am also requesting accounting records from 01/01/2012 to present showing name and aggregate total annual (calendar year preferred, but fiscal year acceptable) payments made to any individuals with the word 'perfusion' in their job title as well.

I discussed my request with the Virginia FOIA council and they advised: "Generally speaking, accounting records showing payments made to an individual would be open to public disclosure, but notations regarding the type of pay or reasons for payment may be withheld as personnel information. Please see AO-01-21 which discussed salary/rate of pay, payroll, and accounting records in detail."

I look forward to receiving these files, thank you.

Thank you for working on my request, I appreciate it.

I didn't see any files attached to my request in the portal for the 2018-present records. Can you please double check that they were uploaded and made available?

Given the cost of the the pre-2018 records I will decline those records.
