Attorney General Seeks to Join Public Records Lawsuit

The state attorney general's office wants to jump into a court battle over whether a report on possible leaks at a Sandia National Laboratories mixed waste dump is public record.

The state Environment Department sued an Albuquerque-based advocacy group last October to keep the report secret. The department cited executive privilege in preventing the disclosure of the 2006 report by TechLaw, a consulting company.

Citizen Action counter sued and accused the agency of violating open meetings and open records laws.
