Dear New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection,

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.

I am writing to submit a formal request under the Open Public Records Act (OPRA) for access to environmental records related to the property located at 144-148 Ellison Street, Paterson, New Jersey also known as 5 Colt Street, Paterson, New Jersey.

Specifically, I am seeking all available documentation including but not limited to:

1. Site remediation files
2. Underground storage tank (UST) records
3. Water and air quality reports
4. Enforcement actions, and any other relevant program-specific records maintained by NJDEP.

Yours faithfully,
