Subject: Virginia Freedom of Information Act Request: Virginia FAACT audit
logs
To Whom It May Concern:

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

1) Audit/use logs, since Jan. 1, 2020, documenting each time a department
employee has accessed, queried, uploaded, downloaded, or otherwise used the
Virginia Framework for Addiction Analysis and Community Transformation
(FAACT) database(s), including , where available, the employee's position,
the purpose for which the database(s) was used, the date, and any
associated case numbers. Participants in the FAACT program and the
Commonwealth Data Trust are required to maintain audit/use logs for
transparency and auditing purposes in order to participate in the programs.

I ask that all fees be waived as intend to use the requested records to
further public understanding of public agencies and not for any commercial
purpose. In the event you choose to impose fees, I request a detailed
breakdown of the fees, including the hourly wage of each employee involved
and an explanation justifying the employee hours required to fulfill the
request.

Should you choose to reject this request or redact portions of responsive
documents, I ask that you provide a detailed breakdown of the statutory
exemptions and associated case law underlying your decision to withhold
each/any portions from public review.

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.

This request is filed by Tom Nash, a citizen of Virginia, in coordination
with Todd Feathers.
