DPS correspondence and financial records are also stored in the Records Center for the period required by the NC Division of Archives and History. Personnel records for former employees are also microfilmed and may be retrieved by calling DPS Human Resources.
Due to volume, the Records Center requires three to five business days to fulfill all requests.
