SECTION
5
FOIA
The freedom of Information Act (FOIA) constitutes that certain directives be deemed exempt from the FOIA. Such is this example as directly taken from the Code of Virginia Section A, Paragraph 57 and 69.
http://policylibrary.tax.state.va.us/OTP/Policy.nsf/0/2abdea834ee4937585256a020073bc69?OpenDocument
§ 2.1-342.01.Exclusions to application of chapter.
A. The following records are excluded from the provisions of this chapter but may be disclosed by the custodian in his discretion, except where such disclosure is prohibited by law:
57A.Records of law-enforcement agencies, to the extent that such records contain specific tactical plans, the disclosure of which would jeopardize the safety or security of law-enforcement personnel or the general public; or records of emergency service agencies to the extent that such records contain specific tactical plans relating to antiterrorist activity.
69A.Engineering and architectural drawings, operational, procedural, tactical planning or training manuals, or staff meeting minutes or other records, the disclosure of which would reveal surveillance techniques, personnel deployments, alarm systems or technologies, or operational and transportation plans or protocols, to the extent such disclosure would jeopardize the security or employee safety of (i) the Virginia Museum of Fine Arts or any of its warehouses; (ii) any government store or warehouse controlled by the Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control; (iii) any courthouse, jail, detention or law-enforcement facility; or (iv) any correctional or juvenile facility or institution under the supervision of the Department of Corrections or the Department of Juvenile Justice.
Clearly it is evident that the works of the publisher¹do not jeopardize the safety of our governmental employees and volunteers. The disclosure of unit numbers is a public fact that can be seen on the vehicle or uniform of the individual. Tactical, narcotic or other sensitive designators are not listed. It is a clear example why logistically active members of these organizations do not show their faces for media relations. Tactical and Sensitive communications are handled on secure networks. The interception of these networks (encrypted or cellular) is a violation of Federal Law. The methods of decrypting this information are the listeners own action and thus their own responsibility for compliance of this regulatory. It must also be recognized that the individual department may deem what and what is not considered tactical(see 57a.) on an individual basis. Also since all works of the publisher¹ are original or transcribed to original ownership/partnership the directive of the above FOIA does not necessarily apply. Only ORIGNINAL departmental records would be protected under the FOIA exclusion since they are only deemed official. The possessions of these documents (works of the publisher) are not a violation of FOIA exclusions since once again this information is an edited, unofficial rendering of communication network information.
