Dear Mr. Scott,

The New Jersey Department of Children and Families (“NJDCF”) is in receipt of your OPRA request as follows: “This is a request for public records made under OPRA and the common law right of access. I am not required to fill out an official form. Please acknowledge receipt of this message. Records requested: I'd like a copy of any and all internal data compilations or reports gathered from the records of Daily Log of Child and Staff Entry Health Screenings and Attendance used by the DCF Emergency Childcare Centers. The data would most likely include number of infections of both staff and children. This complied data might also be the result of the online daily report generated by each facility."

Please be advised that a thorough search has been conducted and DCF is not in possession of any records responsive to your request. You may want to inquire with the New Jersey Department of Health, Communicable Disease Office.

Thank you for your interest in NJDCF. Your OPRA request is closed, attached is a receipt.
