Wash. Admin. Code § 226-02-070 - Protection of public records
In order to implement the provisions of RCW 42.17.290, requiring agencies to enact reasonable rules to protect public records from damage or disorganization, the following rules have been adopted.
(1) Copying of public documents shall be done
by board personnel and under the supervision of said personnel, upon the
request of members of the public under the procedures specified in WAC
226-02-040.
(2) No document shall be physically removed
by a member of the public from the area designated by the board for the public
inspection of documents for any reason whatever.
(3) When a member of the public requests to
examine an entire file or group of documents, as distinguished from a request
to examine certain individual documents which can be identified and supplied by
themselves, the board shall be allowed a reasonable time to inspect the file to
determine whether information protected from disclosure by RCW 42.17.310 is
contained therein, and the board shall not be deemed in violation of its
obligation to reply promptly to requests for public documents by reason of
causing such an inspection to be performed.
