About this file

This is a Protected Record Request Form (Attachment B) issued by Salt Lake County in conjunction with its RFP for Government Relations/Lobbying Services (RFP # MAY091726). The form is designed to allow bidders and proposers submitting information to Salt Lake County to request that specific documents or data be classified as confidential and given protected status under Utah's Government Records Access and Management Act (GRAMA). The form permits claimants to identify themselves and their representatives, describe the records they wish to protect, and select the applicable grounds for confidentiality claims under Utah Code Section 63G-2-305. Bidders may claim protected status if the records constitute trade secrets as defined in Utah Code Section 13-24-2, or if they contain commercial or non-individual financial information where disclosure could cause unfair competitive injury or impair the County's ability to obtain necessary information in the future.

Claimants must provide a concise written statement supporting their confidentiality claim and submit the form with their proposal materials. The document outlines the procedural safeguards protecting claimed records, including notification to the claimant if a protected record is reclassified as public and a thirty-calendar-day appeal period under Utah Code Sections 63G-2-309 and 63G-2-400.5 through 406. Records claimed to be protected will not be disclosed until the appeal period expires or all appeals, including judicial appeals, are exhausted, unless the claimant waives the claim by failing to appeal within the specified timeframe. Additional information regarding GRAMA procedures is available on the Salt Lake County website and through Countywide Policy 2010.

Attachment B

REQUEST FOR PROTECTED RECORD

(Business Confidentiality Claim)

I request that the attached/enclosed information (record) provided to Salt Lake County, or any of its agencies (divisions or programs), be considered confidential and given protected status as defined in Utah’s Government Records Access and Management Act (“GRAMA”).

Name and Address of business and representative making this confidentiality claim:

Description of the information (record) which is to be covered by this confidentiality claim and which you believe qualifies for protected status:

The following reasons support this claim of business confidentiality and protected status under Utah Code § 63G-2-305 (please check all of the following that apply):

(___) 1.

(___) 2.

The record provided is a trade secret as defined in Utah Code § 13-24-2 (See Utah Code §§ 63G-2-305(1) and 63G-2-309).

The record is commercial or non-individual financial information and: (a) disclosure of the information could reasonably be expected to result in unfair competitive injury to the person submitting the information or would impair the ability of Salt Lake County, or its agencies, to obtain necessary information in the future; and (b) the interest of the provider in prohibiting access to the information is greater than the interest of the public in obtaining access. (See Utah Code §§ 63G-2-305(2) and 63G-2-309).

REQUIRED: A concise written statement supporting a business confidentiality claim, as required by Utah Code § 63G-2-309(1). Attach additional sheets if necessary.

NOTE: Claimant shall be notified if a record claimed to be protected is classified public or if the determination is made that the record should be disclosed because the interests favoring access outweigh the interests favoring restriction of access. Records claimed to be protected under this business confidentiality claim may not be disclosed until the period in which to bring an appeal expires or the end of the appeals process, including judicial appeal, unless the claimant, after notice, has waived the claim by not appealing within thirty (30) calendar days. See Utah Code § 63G-2-309(2). The procedure to appeal a GRAMA classification within thirty (30) calendar days is described in Utah Code §§ 63G-2-400.5 through 406 and Countywide Policy 2010, which can be found on the County’s website www.saltlakecounty.gov
