Good Morning,
We have entered your request into the online portal, and you should have
received the associated tracking numbers.
While it is not mandatory to submit OPRA requests through the online portal,
we highly recommend using it. The portal enables us to track and process all
OPRA requests more efficiently. When requests are submitted via email, we
must manually enter the information into the system, which can delay
processing.
Our portal is user-friendly and typically results in a quicker response
time. You can access it here:
https://main.govpilot.com/web/public/91f...
Please don’t hesitate to reach out if you have any further questions.
Best Regards,
Joycelyn E. White
