6 CCR 1007-3-2.109 - Requests which do not reasonably describe records sought

(a) If the description of the records sought in the request is not sufficient to allow the Division to identify and locate the requested records, the Public Records Officer will notify the requestor (by telephone when practicable) that the request cannot be further processed until additional information is furnished.

(b) The Public Records Officer will make every reasonable effort to assist in the identification and description of records sought and to assist the requestor in formulating his/her request. If a request is described in general terms (e.g. all records having to do with a certain area), the Public Records Officer may communicate with the requestor (by telephone when practicable) with a view toward reducing the administrative burden of processing a broad request and minimizing the fees payable by the requestor. Such attempts will not be used as a means to discourage requests, but rather as a means to help identify with more specificity the records actually sought.
