The approval of a request for photocopies shall identify the documents, the exact number of pages and the fee for photocopying, postage, and certification, if certified copies are requested. A copy of each denial and an affidavit of mailing of the denial shall be on file at the office to which the request was made.
3. TIME AND PLACE OF ACCESS FOR RECORDS
The approval of a request for inspection shall inform the requester where the information will be available for inspection.
