§ 454-B:10 — Former Filing Office Duties

I. Every city or town clerk's office ("former filing office") shall maintain a record of every federal tax lien filed with such office under RSA 454-B until the earlier of one year after a release or discharge is filed with respect to such federal tax lien or June 30, 2017. As of July 1, 2017, all remaining records of, or relating to, financing statements filed in such office under RSA 454-B may be destroyed.
II. A former filing office shall not accept or file any initial federal tax lien or any other record relating to a federal tax lien filed with such office under RSA 454-B.
III. Until July 1, 2017, a former filing office shall respond to a request for information concerning its records in the same way and to the same extent as is required of the secretary of state under RSA 382-A:9-523(c), (d), and (e), and shall be entitled to charge and retain the same fees as are prescribed in RSA 382:9-525(d). Such a request for information shall be prepared, submitted, and processed separately from a request for information submitted under RSA 382-A:9-523(g), and the fees prescribed in RSA 382-A:9-525(d) shall apply separately to each request and the response thereto. Every city or town clerk shall post notice that a search of the records held by the city or town clerk may not reveal releases filed with the secretary of state.
