into this portal and you will receive an email confirmation. From there
you can finish creating your account so you can access your request. Your

Note: Effective September 3, 2024, P.L. 2024, c. 16 requires all agencies
subject to OPRA to “adopt the form established by the Government Records
Council . . . for the use of any person who requests access to a
government record held or controlled by the public agency.” N.J.S.A.
47:1A-5(f).
In accordance with this new requirement, the Government Records Council
(“GRC”) has established an updated version of the old "Model OPRA request
form" to include the following required items:
1) certifiable statements addressing commercial purpose and pending
litigation have been added to the “Requestor Information” box.
2) new and amended exemptions have been added to the “Reasons for Denial”
list, and
3) the information page has been changed to reflect relevant new and
amended provisions.
Requestors are not required to use an OPRA form, however, a written
equivalent not containing the form requirement of N.J.S.A 47:1A-5(f) and
N.J.S.A. 47:1A-5(g) may be denied by a custodian.
