Public Records Request |
Requests for public records are available through the Air Quality Records Management staff. All requests must be in writing and clearly state the records sought. If the records request is vague or broad in nature, records management may ask for further clarification or for the requester to be more specific about the records that are being requested.
Adobe Acrobat Reader is required.
Records may be requested using the Air Quality Public Records Request Form, or by providing a written request with the following information:
 Requester's first and last name
 Requester's business/company name if applicable
 Requester's address or business address
 Requester's phone number and fax number
 Record being requested (list business name, business address, and permit number if known)
 Document what the records are requested for
 Document if the records are Commercial or Non-Commercial (see Commercial Record Request Definition)
 Indicate whether copies are being requested or if you wish to inspect the record in person (see Sale of Public Data and Scheduling A Public File Review)
Commercial Purpose is defined as: “the use of a public record for the purpose of sale or resale or for the purpose of producing a document containing all or part of the copy, printout or photograph for sale or the obtaining of names and addresses from such public record for the purpose of solicitation or the sale of such names and addresses to another for the purpose of solicitation or for any purpose in which the purchaser can reasonably anticipate the receipt of monetary gain from direct or indirect use of such public records.”
