Gjovik's Public Records Requests

My Public Records Requests

This page attempts to track my public record requests related to my toxic waste journey starting in late 2020 & investigations into public corruption starting in mid-2021. This page may not include all requests or result, nor may it be kept up to date, but I will try my best to include as much information as I can in order to help others learn about these topics & build on the work I've started. (Last updated: June 20 2023).
