Your counter notification must be in writing and must include substantially all of the following:

Please be aware that Section 512(f) of the DMCA provides that any person who knowingly misrepresents that material or activity was removed or disabled by mistake or misidentification may be subject to liability.

Your written counter-notification must be sent to Fire Chief's designated copyright agent via mail, fax or email. Please note that, for security reasons, email attachments may be blocked, so please do not include any attachments if you send your counter notification via email.
