(a) The executive administrator shall identify value-added

administrator shall request the partnership in writing. The written request
shall include:
(1) the name and address of the entity and a contact person;
(2) the services performed by the entity;
(3) the number of years the entity has performed those services;
and
(4) the internet address the entity would like the board to
use as a hyperlink.
(c) The executive administrator shall determine if the entity
submitting a written request to form a partnership is an entity that provides
services identified in subsection (a) of this section. If so, the executive
administrator shall enter a written agreement with the entity to post its
name, contact information, and hyperlink on the TNRIS web site. The written
agreement shall only be for one year but is renewable upon request.
(d) The executive administrator shall develop and implement,
with board approval, a charge schedule for entities entering partnerships
with the executive administrator to post their information on the TNRIS web

and obtain board approval of the charge schedule. Monies collected from entities
entering partnerships with the executive administrator shall be used to improve
access to TNRIS information.
