Up until June 30, 2008, the Treasury Department served as the public repository for certain state contracts involving any real, personal or mixed property of any kind and any contract for personal services where the amount of the contracts is $5000 or more in accordance with the requirements of Section 1104 of the Administrative Code. Chapter 17 of Act 3 of 2008 repealed Section 1104 effective July 1, 2008.
For the present, Treasury will continue to retain a limited repository of contracts entered into by state agencies prior to July 1, 2008. If you would like a copy of a particular pre-July 1, 2008, state contract, please send a request under the Pennsylvania Right-to-Know Law ("RTK") identifying the specific contract to contractinfo@patreasury.org or call the Contracts e-Library staff at 800-252-4700.
You may also make a request for such contract to the appropriate contact identified in the Right-to-Know Agency Contact List.
It is important for persons seeking pre-July 1, 2008, state contracts to recognize that many government contracts may not be included in Treasury’s limited repository, either because they were outside the scope of Section 1104 of the Administrative Code, or because the responsible government agency -- for whatever reason -- failed to file it with Treasury. Persons unable to obtain pre-July 1, 2008, contracts that they believe exist are encouraged to make direct requests to the contracting agencies under the regular provisions of RTK.
