Ill. Admin. Code tit. 2, § 5376.402 - Requests for Records that the Agency Considers Unduly Burdensome
a) The Agency will
fulfill requests calling for all records falling within a category unless
compliance with the request would unduly burden the Agency, there is no way to
narrow the request, and the burden on the Agency outweighs the public interest
in the information. Before invoking this exemption, the Agency will extend to
the requester an opportunity to confer with it in an attempt to reduce the
request to manageable proportions. (Section 3(g) of FOIA) The amended request
must be in writing.
b) If the
Agency determines that a request is unduly burdensome, it shall do so in
writing, specifying the reasons why it would be unduly burdensome and the
extent to which compliance will so burden the operations of the Agency. Such a
response shall be treated as a denial of the request for information. (Section
3(g) of FOIA)
c) Repeated requests
for records that are unchanged or identical to records previously provided or
properly denied under this Part from the same person shall be deemed unduly
burdensome.(Section 3(g) of FOIA)
