From: Adam Vaccaro
To Whom It May Concern:
Pursuant to the Massachusetts Public Records Law, M.G.L. c.66, §10, I hereby request the following records:
Any email sent to or from the email address "martinjwalsh02125@gmail.com" from April 2014 to October 2014.
Any any email to or from that address that mentions the terms "Boston Calling," "IATSE," "Teamsters," or "Top Chef" at any time.
And any email sent to or from that address by Kenneth Brissette or Timothy Sullivan at any time.
I also request that, if appropriate, fees be waived as we believe this request is in the public interest, as suggested but not stipulated by the recommendations of the Massachusetts Supervisor of Public Records. The requested documents will be made available to the general public free of charge as part of the public information service at MuckRock.com, processed by a representative of the news media/press and is made in the process of news gathering and not for commercial usage.
I expect the request to be filled in an accessible format, including for screen readers, which provide text-to-speech for persons unable to read print. Files that are not accessible to screen readers include, for example, .pdf image files as well as physical documents.
In the event that there are fees, I would be grateful if you would inform me of the total charges in advance of fulfilling my request. I would prefer the request filled electronically, by e-mail attachment if available or CD-ROM if not.
Thank you in advance for your anticipated cooperation in this matter. I look forward to receiving your response to this request within 10 calendar days, as the statute requires.
Sincerely,
Adam Vaccaro

Hi Adam,
There are approximately 1,113 emails sent to or from the email address
martinjwalsh02125@gmail.com from April 2014 to October 2014. Please let me
know if you want to narrow the request, or if you would like a cost
estimate for review.
The other two requests only resulted in a few emails and we will begin
review for those.
Thanks,
Laura

Thanks Laura. Could I ask for a cost estimate to review?
Adam
From: Press Office
Hi Adam,
Using a previously approved cost of .68 cents per email, which includes
review and redaction with digital production, the cost estimate is $756.84.
Please let us know if you would like to move forward.
Thanks,

OK, thanks. Could you say how many emails were sent and how many were received?
From: Press Office
Hi Adam,
From what I can tell, it doesn't look like our system breaks it down in
that way. Do you want to try any keywords to narrow your request?
Thanks,
Laura

Hi Adam,
Apologies, I thought this had already been provided to you. Narrowing the
request to the month of August limited the results to 163 emails. Using a
previously approved cost of .68 cents per email, which includes review and
redaction with digital production, the cost estimate is $110.84.
Please let us know if you would like to move forward.
Best,
Laura
