Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ), 
State Government of Texas,

Dear TCEQ Public Information Officer, 

This is a Texas Open Records request in which I seek to obtain from you a copy of any and all written communications, including any and all e-mail communications, that refer at least once in any manner to myself, John Kevin McMillan of Austin, Texas, and that in the period ever since 12:01 a.m. April 28, 2011, were written, produced, generated, received, sent, mailed, or FAXed by any staff member, officer, or administrator for your Human Resources and Staff Services Division who routinely or frequently pursues job duties relating to safety issues or security issues in regard to your state agency complex in Austin or to TCEQ staff members employed at or visitors to your headquarters offices.

This Open Records request is prompted in part by my sensing that one or more employees or officials of your state agency possibly may have concluded that they regarded me as being a possible alleged "security risk" for your state agency. I mention this partly because earlier this century I received a very surprising rejection e-mail letter, if I remember correctly, from an attorney for your state agency's Office of General Counsel. 

It seems to me that the staff attorney was Kevin McCalla, and that he requested in writing that I refrain from ever again directly contacting Mr. McCalla himself. I attempted today to locate that reply letter to me from Mr. McCalla, but have not been able to do so. It is possible that the rejection letter to me was written and sent to me by another attorney for your state agency in Austin. 

According to legal documents your state agency provided me earlier this century in response to a public-information request, in November of 2001 a female Human Resources staff member of your state agency made a tentative job offer to me on the telephone for a full-time clerical job at your headquarters complex in Austin----but later retracted that job offer. That withdrawal of the job offer occurred a matter of hours after your HR Department obtained a follow-up oral statement from one of your full-time employees, Randy Hamilton, himself a former classmate of mine at Eanes Elementary School of Eanes ISD in Westlake Hills, in which Mr. Hamilton stated to your HR department staff member that if I myself were working in the same building as himself, Mr. Hamilton would feel "very uncomfortable" about any such scenario for himself. 

At that time, your state agency bore the official name of "Texas Natural Resource Conservation Commission". 

According to legal documents provided to me by your state agency in response to the above cited public-information request, Mr. Hamilton also stated to your HR department that I myself was "paranoid". He elaborated on that oral evaluation of me by stating to an HR department staff member who interviewed Mr. Hamilton that I myself had directly consulted private attorney John F. Campbell of Austin in regard to concerns of mine about alleged violations of my own privacy rights in Austin.

I myself am a dependably civil and law-abiding, gainfully-employed, permanently-drinking-alcohol-free-ever-since 1990, permanently-marijuana-free-ever-since-1984, lifelong-illicit-drugs-free in regard to any and all illicit drugs other than marijuana, facially-cleanshaven, consistently clean-talking (no profanity by me in my everyday conversations with others), lifelong-tattoo-less and anti-tattoos-minded, single adult Anglo-Saxon gentleman of English, Scottish, and German ancestry. 

My legal name is John Kevin McMillan. I am a native of Lincoln, Nebraska; I was born there on April 27,1957. 

I am a former Salutatorian of Stephen F. Austin High School of Austin Independent School District in Austin, Texas. I am an alumnus of The University of Texas at Austin and The University of Minnesota Graduate School of Journalism and Mass Communications in Minneapolis, respectively. 

I have resided in Austin proper ever since mid-March 1997, during which time I have been employed by a variety of reputable employers, including the Texas Department of Public Safety state law-enforcement agency. 

During the nine-and-one-third-year period applicable to this public-information request, I have resided at the following locations, listed chronologically from oldest address for me to most recent address: 
---Wind River Crossing Apartments, 11411 Research Boulevard, Apt. 325, Austin, TX 78759; 
---Crossland Economy Studios, 12621 Hymeadow Road, Apt. 133, Austin, TX 78729; 
---Village Oaks Apartments, 10926 Jollyville Road, Apt. 902, Austin, TX 78759;
---Village Oaks Apartments, 10926 Jollyville Road, Apt. 1609, Austin, TX 78759; 
---Austin Motor Inn, 11400 North Interstate Highway 35, a first-floor room, Austin, TX 78753; 
and 
---Pebble Creek Apartments, 8805 North Plaza Drive, Apt. 2418, Bldg. 17, Austin, TX 78753.

I am the founder and only approved current member of a new and non-Christian non-proselytizing "Honor Society" religion, the anti-marijuana, anti-medical-marijuana, anti-illicit-drugs, anti-tobacco, anti-drinking-alcohol, anti-tattoos, anti-profanity-minded, anti-facial-hair-minded "Progressive Prohibitionist Religion", that has very stringent membership-eligibility requirements. That one total religion of mine opposes home-invasion crimes, opposes personal-injury-crimes, opposes sexual assault crimes, opposes the sex crime of pederasty, opposes the infliction of profanity or obscene speech on anyone in a context that violates their own privacy rights, opposes anonymous communications that violate the privacy of the person being subjected to those communications, opposes fraudulent or knowingly dishonest communications, opposes thought-control projects, opposes so-called "deprogramming" projects, opposes kidnappings, opposes hostage-takings, opposes compelled speech that violates the privacy rights of the individual being subjected to that compelled speech against his wishes, and opposes deliberate infliction of continuous noise pollution on anyone in a context that harms that individual's own medical health or that is aimed at punishing him or her for having political or religious or personal beliefs---or personal prejudices, even---that are disliked or opposed by the perpetrators or sponsors of that noise pollution. Numerous current or former Central Texas residents have stated to me over a multi-year period that they either dislike or intensely dislike or question the authenticity of my own fully-independent "Progressive Prohibitionist Religion" (PPR). 

Around the turn of the century I gave several televised speeches on behalf of that religion of mine on local Community Access Television in Austin. One younger Central Texan man left a violent-sounding and obscene anonymous recorded phone message on my telephone-answering machine inside my apartment near UT-Austin---a recorded phone message in which he volunteered that he himself is "Catholic". In his recorded message to me, he stated that he was reacting to one or more locally televised speeches of mine that I gave on behalf of my PPR religion.
