Access to Public Records Act Request for Automated License Plate Reader (ALPR) Records
Dear Camden County Prosecutor's Office,
Please accept this electronic request for public records made under OPRA and the common law right of access. I am not required to fill out an official form or use a particular software platform to submit my request per NJSA 47:1A-6(f), which states that an email from a requestor including all of the information required on the adopted form shall suffice in place of a completed form as a valid government record request.
I HAVE NOT been convicted of any indictable offense under the laws of New Jersey, any other state, or the United States.
I WILL NOT use the requested government records for a commercial purpose.
I AM NOT seeking records in connection with a legal proceeding.
Records requested:
Contracts with ALPR Vendors: All contracts, agreements, memoranda of understanding, or other documents between Camden County Sheriff’s Office and any company providing ALPR technology or services, including but not limited to Flock Safety, Vigilant Solutions, Rekor Systems, or any other ALPR vendor. This includes any amendments, renewals, or extensions of such contracts executed or effective between January 1, 2023, and November 15, 2025.
Policies on ALPR Data Access: All policies, procedure manuals, training materials, or other documentation, effective or revised between January 1, 2023, and November 15, 2025, that describe who within the Sheriff’s Office (e.g., specific roles, ranks, or units) is authorized to search or access license plate data collected by any ALPR vendor, regardless of whether the data is stored by the vendor or Camden County.
Policies on ALPR Search Logs and Audits: All policies, procedure manuals, or other documentation, effective or revised between January 1, 2023, and November 15, 2025, that describe:
a. The maintenance of logs recording who searches ALPR data, when, and the stated reason or purpose for each search.
b. The process, frequency, and criteria for auditing such logs to ensure compliance with Camden County Sherrif’s Office policies or state/federal law, including any reports or documentation summarizing audit procedures.
If any records are maintained in a database or electronic system, I request an export of the relevant data in a machine-readable format (e.g., CSV, Excel) converted to PDF for delivery. If any responsive records are withheld or redacted, please provide a detailed log describing each withheld or redacted record, including the record’s title, date, and the specific legal basis for withholding or redaction.
Thank you for your attention to this request, and I look forward to your response.
My preferred delivery method for response(s) to this request is by E-mail as attachments. Please confirm you have received this request. If you are not the custodian of records, please forward my request to that person and provide their email address to me for future reference.
Yours faithfully,
R B
