Right to Know Requests

In Pennsylvania, the Right to Know Law (RTKL) provides that all state and local government agency records (including those of ECS) are presumed to be public. If an agency wants to withhold a record, it must prove that it is entitled to do so under the RTKL, another law or regulation, privilege (such as attorney-client privilege), or court order.

The Office of Open Records provides a variety of information about the law, making requests and is also the agency which would address any appeal of an agency denial. Learn more at The Commonwealth of Pennsylvania’s Office of Open Records.
