Mr. Michael,
In response to your OPRA request for Body Cam Footage of all traffic stops
between June 1 through June 5.
We charge for Body Cam footage.  For each hour of footage it takes about 4
hours for redactions, at $28/hour.
We would require 50% of the estimated total before we even start the job.
Also, FYI, the redacted footage would have to be copied to DVD, we are not
able to send it via email. 
Please advise if you would like a cost estimate of the complete request.
