G. L. c. 66 § 10(b); see also 950 C.M.R. 32.08(2). Specifically, Mr. Dreslinski requested a fax referenced in a specific police report. You initially denied his request, claiming that the responsive record was exempt pursuant to Exemption (f). G. L. c. 4, § 7(26)(£). In a supplemental response dated March 11, 2015, you provided Mr. Dreslinski with the requested records and redacted certain personal information such as dates of birth and social security numbers. In his appeal to our office, Mr. Dreslinski stated "At a minimum, Erving Police is required to provide me with a redacted version of the requested record." Whereas the Department provided Mr. Dreslinski with a partially-redacted copy of the requested record, I will consider his request satisfied. Mr. Dreslinski may appeal the basis of the redactions within ninety (90) days. See 950 C.M.R. 32.08(2). I will consider this administrative appeal close Supervisor of Records cc: Mr. Michael Dreslinski OneAshburton Place, Room 1719, Boston, Massachusetts 02108 · (617) 727-2832.
