Aggregation Of Frequent And Multiple Requests

(1) Requests for any DCS records may be aggregated. (2) DCS will aggregate records requests in accordance with the “Reasonable Charges for Frequent and Multiple Requests” policy found on the OORC website, when four (4) or more requests are received within a calendar month, either from a single individual or a group of individuals deemed to be working in concert. The PRRC is responsible for making the determination that a group of individuals is working in concert. The PRRC or the records custodian must inform the individuals that they have been deemed to be working in concert and that they have the right to appeal the decision to the OORC. (3) When the aggregation threshold is reached, the exemption for labor charges up to one (1) hour specified in rule 0250-06-01-.09(4)(c) above does not apply to subsequent requests.
