(1) A person inspecting a public record or receiving a copy of a public record or information from a public record must pay OWEB's actual costs, as follows:

(a) The cost of staff time necessary to locate and handle the records, to delete material exempt from disclosure and to supervise the inspection by the requester;

(b) The cost of producing the copy or the information; and

(c) The cost of other supplies or services necessary to furnish the copy or information.

(2) The OWEB Board shall establish the agency's list of fees for inspection and copying of public records. The list of fees shall be posted on OWEB's website and shall be available on request from OWEB. The OWEB Board shall review the list of fees adopted from time to time in order to ensure that the fees reflect current actual costs.

(3) If the request appears to require services for which no fee has been established, the actual costs will be determined or estimated by OWEB, and the requester will be notified of those costs before OWEB complies with the request.

(4) OWEB may require that all or a portion of the estimated fees be paid before the public record is made available for inspection or copies provided.

(5) Payment for public record requests may be made in the form of cash, check, or money order.
