File Review Policy
(Lawrence Conservation District)

In accordance with the Freedom of Information Act, the Lawrence Conservation District will make files available to the public in the following manner:

• The requesting party must make an appointment to review the file to ensure there will be someone in the office to assist them.
• A staff person must stay with the requesting party as they review the file. The requesting party may take notes on the file materials. Any file material to be copied must be removed from the file and the file removed from the examination area.
• A charge of .30 per 8 ½" by 11" page will be charged by the Lawrence Conservation District for copies. Larger copies of maps and drawings may be copied by the Lawrence County Planning Commission Office according to their capabilities and fees.
• The Lawrence Conservation District will charge for staff time and materials for making over 100 copies.
• Payment must be made in full before material is released.

The policy was approved by the Lawrence Conservation District Board of Directors on June 2, 1999.
