Hello Rhonda,
Would you please clarify what an individual desk manual is?
Thank you,
Rose
From: Washington State Patrol

Good Morning,
Desk manuals are usually kept for civil service employees like the Secretaries at district/division offices. It will cover things like how to send a letter, how to set up an meeting, how to handle someone at the public window. It is a manual that goes over that particular job duties. There are other staff that keep them but they cover that position's job duties. You may have some that are 10 years old that have never been updated or ones that have been updated in the last couple of months. It is not mandatory for us to have them but helps if that person leaves the agency to guide the incoming employee.
Hope this helps,
Rhonda Tucker, Public Records Manager
From: Rose Terse
Hello Rhonda,
Thank you so much for the explanation! I will not be needing desk manuals.
Thank you,

To Whom It May Concern:
I'm following up on the following Washington Public Records Act request, copied below, and originally submitted on Oct. 12, 2023. You had previously indicated that it would be completed on Oct. 31, 2023. I wanted to check on the status of my request, and to see if there was a new estimated completion date. You had assigned it reference number #R013418-101223.
Thanks for your help, and let me know if further clarification is needed.
From: Washington State Patrol

Good Morning,
Sorry for the confusion the date of 10/31/23 was the date given for you to respond to our clarification. The Washington State Patrol has so many manuals it is going to take at least 3 installments to provide them all to you. Since this caused some confusion I will release an installment today and you will be notified of when the next installment will be released.
Respectfully,
Rhonda Tucker, Public Records Manager
