# Russellville First-Items Production The [[Russellville Police Department]] delivered the first installment of its July 21, 2026 records request on 2026-07-23 at 15:56 CDT, transmitted by Assistant Chief [[Phillip Varnell]] (Gmail message `19f90c41f2b598d2`): "For the first items you requested in the first paragraph, I have included the requested attachments." Four files arrived — the department's ALPR policy, its 2026 semi-annual statutory usage report, and two native CSV exports supplying the corpus's first exact Russellville camera coordinates. Varnell states rolling production continues ("I'll continue to gather data and provide explanations as I am able") with the Public Information Officer out of office. ## What's inside - [[Russellville ALPR Policy 312.2]] — `312.2 Automated License Plate Readers (1).pdf`: the department's ALPR policy, effective 2024-09-01 under Chief [[David Ewing]]. - [[Russellville 2026 Semi-Annual ALPR Usage Report]] — `2026 Semi Annual ALPR Usage Report.pdf`: the § 12-12-1805 report for January 1 – June 30, 2026, published July 13, 2026 — **17,624,832 plates scanned**. - [[Russellville Devices and Locations Spreadsheet]] — `Devices and Locations Spreadsheet.csv`: 17 devices (13 LPR cameras, 4 Condor video cameras) with exact coordinates, health status, and two Flock organization names. - [[Russellville Flock Deployment Tracker Export]] — `ar-russellville-pd-deployment-tracker-07-23-2026.csv`: a vendor-side (`SFDC Account Name`) deployment export with dated completions, a `RTCC (OS)` deployment label, and four pending Dual-Lens PTZ rows under an amendment to contract `#00036024`. ## Custodian statements in the transmittal The transmittal email (Gmail message `19f90c41f2b598d2`) makes five substantive statements: 1. "We do not utilize privately owned cameras. I understand that this capability is available through FLOCK, but we do not access cameras operated by private businesses or other privately owned cameras." 2. "All of our cameras and LPRs are FLOCK systems brand and/or model." 3. On other agencies' devices: "I am not able to provide locations for every LPR that could potentially generate an alert in other cities or states," with the department's Flock transparency portal offered for the current sharing list; requesters "will need to request specific locations from those agencies." 4. On the Public Works Miovision system: officers "may establish an account" and several patrol officers use it to verify driver statements in crash investigations, but the department "does not own, operate, or administer the Miovision system" — the category is referred to Russellville Public Works, and the system is "completely separate from our FLOCK system and is not connected to it in any way." 5. On the ARDOT reconciliation item: "I hope that seeing the latitude and longitude for our cameras and comparing them to what ARDOT provided will answer your questions." ## Key takeaways - **First exact Russellville coordinates.** The devices export supplies 17 exact device locations with per-device health status; all 17 are integrated into [[Arkansas Camera Map Data]] as current-inventory records, and the four pending PTZ rows as proposal records ([[Russellville Devices and Locations Spreadsheet]]; [[Russellville Flock Deployment Tracker Export]]). - **Two Flock organizations.** The devices export names both `Russellville AR PD` and `Russellville AR PD (Condor)` — agency-produced confirmation of the base/Condor tenant split previously seen only from outside snapshots at other agencies. - **Video preceded ALPR.** The tracker's dated rows complete Condor compute boxes in August–September 2025 and the F-series LPR wave on February 10 – March 3, 2026 ([[2026-02 Russellville LPR Installation Wave]]). - **The corpus's largest six-month scan volume.** 17,624,832 reads in six months, against 1,851 matches, 5 arrests across 4 logged cases, and 2 recovered vehicles ([[Russellville 2026 Semi-Annual ALPR Usage Report]]). - **An express no-private-cameras posture.** Varnell's statement 1 is the corpus's clearest agency disavowal of private-camera access to date, made against the same platform whose registry/integration programs the corpus documents at [[Jonesboro Police Department|Jonesboro]] and Pine Bluff. ## People and orgs mentioned - [[Russellville Police Department]] — producing agency; [[Phillip Varnell]] — transmitting Assistant Chief; [[David Ewing]] — policy issuing authority. - [[Flock Safety, Inc.]] — vendor of all produced devices; the tracker is a vendor-side export. - [[City of Russellville]] — Public Works owns the separate Miovision intersection-camera system. ## Concepts invoked - [[Automatic License Plate Reader (ALPR)]] · [[Arkansas Automatic License Plate Reader System Act]] · [[Flock Network Sharing - Hot Lists]] ## Events documented - [[2026-02 Russellville LPR Installation Wave]] ## Cross-references - The seventeen ARDOT `P1927`/`P1944`/`P1945`/Case `678191` rows ([[Statewide Traffic Control Devices Export]]) remain separate records; the count coincidence with the 17-device export is noted but no row-level crosswalk has been produced. ## Open questions / follow-ups - Sharing/tenant configuration exports, retained audit logs (as distinct from the report's summary), the procurement file including the `#00036024` amendment, and the remaining request categories are outstanding in the rolling production. - Whether the department operates mobile or magnetically mounted LPR units (Policy 312.2 §E regulates their care) is not established by these records. - The `RTCC (OS)` deployment-name token is a lead only; no record establishes a Russellville real-time crime center. - Miovision camera locations and access records now sit with Russellville Public Works — a separate-custodian decision.
