FOI #26-405 - Subject - Compliance Verification and Formal Records Disposition Request

Name - Brittany Clifton

Affiliation -

While I acknowledge your statement that UConn does not currently have copies of the records I requested, the RC-108 form provided establishes that significant volumes of records were authorized for destruction under two specific series:
1. ADMIN-027: Grant Program Files – Agency as administrator (Williams Syndrome/Mentor Connection/Nat1 G&T) [15.8 cf]
2. ADMIN-022: Event Program Files (Confratute) [10 cf]
Although your recent correspondence states that you cannot confirm UConn’s prior possession of these records, the attached Form RC-108—signed by the University Archivist and dated June 15, 2023—serves as the official institutional record confirming that these datasets were under the University's legal custody and control until the requested disposition date.
To conclude my administrative audit of these datasets, I am formally requesting the following documentation for both series:
• Federal Grant Identifier: Please provide the specific federal grant number(s) associated with both ADMIN-027 and ADMIN-022 so that I may verify the retention requirements mandated by the awarding federal agency.
• Inclusion/Exclusion Criteria: Please provide the official protocol documents detailing the participant inclusion and exclusion criteria for the research studies categorized under these series. This is necessary to understand the methodology and eligibility requirements for the populations studied.
• Certificate of Disposition: Please provide the formal Certificate of Destruction or Disposition associated with the July 1, 2023, proposed disposal date for these records.
• Finding Aid / Metadata: If the physical records were destroyed, please provide any existing finding aids, metadata summaries, or electronic project logs that describe the contents, participants, or scope of these specific datasets.
