The Commonwealth of Massachusetts William Francis Galvin, Secretary of the Commonwealth Public Records Division Rebecca S. Murray Supervisor of Records April 18, 2019 SPR19/777 Mike Harris Assistant Manager of Legal Services Department of Conservation & Recreation 251 Causeway Street, Suite 600 Boston, MA 02114 Dear Mr. Harris: I have received the petition of Arthur Butler appealing the nonresponse of the Department of Conservation & Recreation (Department) to a request for public records. G. L. c. 66, § lOA; see also 950 C.M.R. 32.08(1). Specifically, Mr. Butler requested copies of the certified payrolls for an identified entity and their subs. Having received no response, Mr. Butler petitioned this office. Subsequent to the intervention by a member of the Public Records Division, this office was notified that a response was provided, dated April 17, 2019. Whereas this matter was opened based upon the Department's failure to provide a written response, I will now consider this administrative appeal closed. Mr. Butler may appeal the substantive nature of the Department's response within ninety days. See 950 C.M.R. 32.08(1). Sincerely, ~~ Rebecca S. Murray Supervisor of Records cc: Arthur Butler One Ashburton Place, Room 1719, Boston, Massachusetts 02108 • (617) 727-2832• Fax: (617) 727-5914 sec.state.ma.us/pre• pre@sec.state.ma.us
