(March 2024) Request for Rutherford County, NC Government: Proof of NIMS required ICS training for Sheriff’s Department. From 12/07/2022 – 03/16/2024.

Good Evening Kim, Amy, Kristina, (or Custodian(s) of these records), and all others CCed,

Please reply promptly to the following public records request, which I’m making in accordance with NC Public Records Law. https://www.ncleg.net/enactedlegislation/statutes/html/bychapter/chapter_132.html

** I’m simply requesting an electronic copy of an electronic record, if one exists. I’m NOT asking for the opportunity to come in person to "inspect", nor to obtain a printed copy of, this electronic record. I’m requesting explicitly that any responsive info be provided to me via the electronic medium / electronic format (in which the copy of this record already exists). If you are unable to fulfill any or all parts of this request, please specifically cite where a reason for denial is justified under NC Public Records Law. **

This request is related to National Incident Management System [NIMS] required Incident Command System [ICS] training.

Please provide proof (as required for NIMS) of Federal Emergency Management Agency [FEMA] compliance for ALL Rutherford County, NC Sheriff and Office of the Sheriff Department employees and deputies, in all Divisions and Departments under the purview of the Sheriff. I believe that ICS levels 100, 200, 300, 400, 700, and 800 training requirements vary based on leadership level, so the appropriate rank structure should provide the corresponding certification.

All the responsive records requested should include the specific time period of December 07, 2022 through March 16, 2024.

If any / all of this info is already publicly available online, please provide a link to where it can be accessed.
————————————

Please note that by submitting this request, I’m NOT agreeing to pay any potential fees or associated costs related to my request. If it isn’t possible to process the request without incurring fees, then please let me know the itemized potential cost and clear explanations of those charges upfront, and DO NOT proceed until I respond.

By Law I’m not required to provide a name or address to associate with a public records request, but in order to move things along I’d like to clarify that this request is being made by:

Sunshine Request
PO Box 17391
Asheville, NC 28816

The request has been sent solely by me and my email address [email protected] . If anyone other than that email address contacts you to pursue a similar request, it did not come from me. Please do not commingle or treat that as an alteration or cancellation of my request – I intend to continue to pursue my request.

Thank you for your assistance!
