Subject: University of Oregon Public Records Request Estimate - Gilkey

Dear Professor Gilkey:

The University of Oregon received your public records request for a copy of the additional supporting evidence for the memo submitted to you by our office concerning US09/10-7 motion. You also requested a copy of the backup for calculating the estimate. The University is now providing an estimate.

The University estimates the actual cost of providing the documents responsive to your request to be $14.79. Upon receipt of a check made payable to the University of Oregon in the amount of $14.79, the University will proceed to locate, copy, and provide the records you have requested that are not exempt from disclosure. Your check may be sent to the attention of the General Counsel's office at 1226 University of Oregon, Johnson Hall, Room 219, Eugene, OR 97403-1226.

Please note that if the cost of preparing the documents for you is less than the estimate, we will refund the difference. If the cost of preparing the report for you exceeds the estimate, however, you may be charged for the difference. Following is an outline of how costs are determined.

The University charges a copy fee of 25 cents per page. The University also charges for the actual cost of making public records available. The charge includes, but is not limited to, staff costs for locating, gathering, summarizing, compiling, reviewing, tailoring or redacting the public records to respond to a request. The charge may also include the cost of time spent by an attorney in reviewing the public records, redacting material from the public records, or segregating the public records into exempt and nonexempt records. If the request is to inspect records, the charge includes the time for records to be prepared for review and the cost of staff time for a staff member to be present while the requester reviews the records to preserve the integrity of the University's records. If the request is to certify the records as true copies, the charge will include employee time spent in doing so. The charge will also include the cost of sending the records where copies are requested.

The cost of time for each employee is calculated by multiplying the employee's hourly wage calculation (including benefits expenses) by the hours or portions thereof necessary to locate, gather, summarize, compile, tailor, review, redact, segregate, certify or attend the inspection of the public records requested.

Thank you for contacting the University with your request.
Sincerely,
Office of the General Counsel
University of Oregon
