From: Meg Young
To Whom It May Concern:
Pursuant to the Washington Public Records Act, I hereby request the following records:
1. Copy of an ORCA organization "org" chart that includes the 7 partner agency Site Managers.
2. A copy of every formal "change request" for the vendor agreement between ORCA and Vix between 2016 - 2019 (formerly AIG).
3. A copy of every signed version of the vendor agreement between ORCA and Vix (formerly AIG); in the event there are many versions of the vendor agreement, I would be grateful for only versions that were signed between 2016-2019.
4. Original RFP for the original ORCA card system.
4. A copy of any 5 law enforcement requests for ORCA data related to a court order or subpoena.
5. A copy of any 5 institutional ORCA customers/users requests for ORCA data or reporting (e.g. as Amazon, Microsoft, University of Washington, QFC).
6. Copies of all public records requests made in 2018 related to the ORCA card program.
7. All emails related to the 2018 public records request for the software application for the portable handheld fare enforcement devices.
I also request that, if appropriate, fees be waived as I believe this request is for my PhD research at the University of Washington. These documents are to support to my PhD dissertation research in which I ask, "How do public transportation agencies work with private firms to enable policy programs that rely on continuous or geospatial data? What contextual and historical factors led to current system design and institutional configurations? How do stakeholders define the roles of their respective organizations?" More information on my dissertation is here: https://sites.uw.edu/dataintransit/
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 help. I look forward to receiving your response to this request and appreciate your time on this request.
Sincerely,
Meg Young
