Section 44-06-090. Copying fees.

No fee shall be charged for the inspection of a public record. The office, however, will for requests under this chapter, charge ten cents per copy. The public records officer may waive the fee for copies when the expense of processing the payment exceeds the costs of providing the copies. These charges are necessary to reimburse the office for the costs of providing the copies of the public records and the use of the copying equipment. Payment should be made by check to the attorney general's office. The office may require that all charges be paid in advance of release of the copies of the records.
