Dear Christine Burke,

I would like to provide a more specific document request for items 1 and 2 (if you need). Please provide the following documents that are completed in the first month of deployment of body worn cameras (BWCs):

- Body Worn Total Activity Report (which generates members' BWC activation activity)
- Body Worn Camera review report (performed by supervisors; one in the first month of deployment is fine)

If there is a more efficient way to know the first deployment date (a better document that has this information) please advise.

Thank you!

Christine Burke, Franklin Township (Hunterdon)
