the public records office shall promptly notify the requestor that those
records are available for inspection or copying.

Statement of copying, mailing, or
other costs. The notice of availability will state any costs for
obtaining a copy of the records, the costs for having a copy mailed to the
requestor, and any other allowable costs under WAC
