VI.       Procedure for Processing Public-Records Requests

A.         A Tennessee citizen shall first submit a valid Public-Records Request in accordance with this Policy and applicable law.  The Public-Records Request Coordinator will obtain a Requestor鈥檚 contact information for any further correspondence required by law or Policy. 

B.         The PRRC shall review the Public-Records Request and make an initial determination of the following:

1. If the Requestor provided evidence of Tennessee citizenship;
2. If the requested Records are described with sufficient specificity to identify them; and
3. If SCS is the custodian of the Records.

C.        The PRRC shall promptly advise the Requestor of this Policy and any election(s) made regarding:

1. Proof of Tennessee citizenship;
2. Required form(s);
3. Fees; and
4. Aggregation of multiple or frequent requests.

D.        The PRRC will forward the Request to the appropriate Records Custodian in SCS.  If the Records are in the custody of a different governmental entity, and the PRRC knows the correct governmental entity, the PRRC may advise the Requestor of the correct governmental entity and PRRC for that entity, if known.  If the Records Custodian is uncertain that an applicable exemption applies, the Records Custodian may consult with the PRRC.  The PRRC may consult with counsel and/or the Office of Open Records Counsel regarding applicable exemptions.

E.         Within seven (7) business days of SCS鈥檚 actual receipt of a valid Public-Records Request, the PRRC shall acknowledge receipt of the request and take any of the following appropriate action(s):

1. Make the Records available to the Requestor; or
2. Deny the Request in writing and include the basis for the denial; or
3. Advise the Requestor that it is not practicable for the Records to be made promptly available for inspection and/or copying and furnish the Requestor with the estimated time that will be reasonably necessary to produce the Record if it will not be produced within seven (7) business days.  If appropriate, the PRRC may contact the Requestor to see if the Request can be narrowed.

The PRRC shall complete a Public-Records Request Response Form and/or a Supplemental Response Form, as appropriate. 

F.         SCS is not responsible for searching through files to compile information or for creating Records that do not exist. 

G.        The Records Custodian shall redact any part of a Public Record that contains information exempt from disclosure.  If questions arise concerning redaction, the RC should coordinate with the PRRC.  Where a redacted Record is provided, the PRRC shall provide the Requestor with the basis for redaction.  The basis given for redaction shall be general in nature and shall not disclose confidential information.

H.        If a Records Custodian reasonably determines production of Records should be segmented because the Request is for a large volume of Records, or additional time is necessary to prepare the Records for access, the Records Custodian shall use a Response Form to notify the Requestor that production of the Records will be in segments and that a production schedule will be provided as expeditiously as practicable.  If appropriate, the RC should contact the Requestor to see if the Request can be narrowed.

I.          Any Tennessee citizen who has made a valid request to access SCS Public Records may inspect and/or receive copies the Public Record(s) if such record(s) exist and are not Confidential Records exempt from disclosure.

• Policy Amendments and Addendums
