To the Public Records Officer, Department of Administrative Services:

This is a request under ORS 192.311 to 192.478. I am also giving notice of my intent to petition the Attorney General regarding two prior requests, addressed at the end of this message.

I am Robert Samuel White, date of birth April 11, 1977. I served as a volunteer with the Oregon Parks and Recreation Department at Jessie M. Honeyman Memorial State Park in February and March 2025. I was dismissed on March 24, 2025, and permanently excluded
from all OPRD volunteer programs on March 26, 2025, in a letter citing my public comments about staff. On March 24, 2026, Oregon State Police and a United States Forest Service special agent were sent to my residence on restricted federal land.

I request the following records for the period February 1, 2025 to the present, except as otherwise specified.

1. All records concerning me held by DAS in any division, including the Chief Human Resources Office, Risk Management, Enterprise Goods and Services, and the Office of the Director. This includes records indexed under Robert White, Robert Samuel White, Robert
S. White, Sam White, or my date of birth.

2. All records reflecting any behavioral threat assessment, threat management, workplace violence assessment, or safety planning process concerning me. This includes but is not limited to: workplace violence incident reports; reports made under Statewide HR
Policy 50.010.02; threat assessment team or workplace violence prevention team records, agendas, minutes, notes, or referrals; completed or partial assessment instruments of any kind; designations of me as a subject of concern, person of concern, or equivalent;
safety plans; no-contact or no-trespass directives; and any recommendation to contact or involve law enforcement.

3. All communications between DAS and OPRD concerning me, including any consultation, guidance, or technical assistance provided by DAS to OPRD regarding my dismissal, my exclusion, my correspondence, my public records requests, the archive at oprdvolunteerabuse.org,
or the March 24, 2026 police visit.

4. All communications between DAS and Oregon State Police, the Oregon Department of Justice, the Office of the Governor, or any federal agency concerning me.

5. All records reflecting the disclosure of my personal information, including my date of birth, my residence, or my volunteer file, to any person or agency outside OPRD.

6. The following policy and training records, without regard to date:

(a) Statewide Policy 50.010.02, Violence-Free Workplace, in both the version effective 11/1/2024 and the superseded version effective 02/01/2019.

(b) Statewide Policy 50.010.04, Workplace Effects of Domestic Violence, Sexual Assault, and Stalking, and the accompanying online Toolkit referenced in 50.010.02(4).

(c) The DAS-CHRO Violence and Weapons Free Workplace training required by 50.010.02(10), including all slides, scripts, scenarios, handouts, and completion records.

(d) Any agency safety plan, procedure, guidance, form, checklist, or assessment instrument used to carry out 50.010.02(4) or 50.010.02(6), including any used to assess reported incidents, and any addressing application of the policy to volunteers
or other non-employees within the definition of "others working in an agency."

(e) Any guidance, training, or written material issued by DAS or CHRO to executive branch agencies concerning behavioral threat assessment, threat management teams, or workplace violence prevention teams.

(f) Any record identifying the agency directors, human resource sections, or safety sections designated to administer 50.010.02 at the Oregon Parks and Recreation Department, and any delegation of that authority. 

7. All records reflecting the number of behavioral threat assessments, workplace violence assessments, or threat management processes initiated by executive branch agencies since January 1, 2023, in whatever aggregate or summary form DAS maintains.

If any responsive record is withheld, please identify it by date, author, recipient, and subject, and cite the specific exemption claimed. If DAS is not the custodian of a particular record, please identify the custodian rather than closing the request. ORS
192.311(2)(b) defines the custodian to include a public body that owns or retains a record, and DAS is the custodian of its own correspondence.

I request a fee waiver. Disclosure of these records is in the public interest. The question of whether an authority created to prevent violence has been used against a volunteer for documenting his own treatment is a matter of public concern, and the resulting
records bear on the conduct of two state agencies toward a member of the public.

Notice regarding two prior requests: I intend to petition the Attorney General under ORS 192.411 concerning requests R000879 and R000885, which DAS has not resolved in a manner consistent with its obligations under ORS 192.311 to 192.478. That petition will
be filed this week and published with its exhibits.

I have an active public records petition before the Attorney General concerning Oregon State Police, PR27478, and I have given notice of intent to file a claim under ORS 30.275 concerning the March 24, 2026 police visit. Please treat all records identified
above as subject to litigation hold.

Robert Samuel White
