OAR 350-012-0020. Right to Inspect Public Records; Personal Privacy Interests

(1) Every person has a right to inspect any public record of the Gorge Commission, except as otherwise expressly provided by this division. (2) The Gorge Commission shall furnish proper and reasonable opportunities for inspection and examination of non-exempt records during the usual business hours, to all persons requesting inspection and examination. (3) To the extent required to prevent an unreasonable invasion of personal privacy interests protected by this division or an Oregon, Washington, or federal statute or regulation that prohibits disclosure of specific information or records, the Gorge Commission shall redact identifying details in a manner consistent with such requirement when it makes available or publishes any public record; however, in each case, the justification for the deletion shall be explained fully in writing. Personal privacy interests are considered invaded if disclosure of information about the person would be highly offensive to a reasonable person and is not of legitimate concern to the public. (4) For informational purposes, the Gorge Commission shall publish and maintain a current list containing every law, other than those listed in this division, that the Gorge Commission believes exempts or prohibits disclosure of specific information or records of the Gorge Commission. The Gorge Commission’s failure to list an exemption shall not affect the efficacy of any exemption.
