1 PROCESSING FOIA REQUESTS Step 1: Request Received If request is oral, reduce to writing. Document date of receipt. Step 2: Assess the Request Is the Requestor an Arkansas citizen? Does the request describe the records with sufficient specificity to allow the custodian to locate the records with reasonable effort? Does the requestor seek records, as opposed to information or answers to questions? Is the agency the custodian of the records requested? If not, notify the requestor and identify the custodian, if known or readily ascertainable. Do responsive records exist? No obligation to create records; however, consider advantages of creating a record to summarize information contained in a large volume of documents What types of records are being requested (i.e. personnel or evaluation records)?

2 Step 3: Calculate Deadline for Compliance In use or active storage Three working days Personnel or evaluation records Within 24 hours of receipt of request, Agency must: Determine whether records are exempt from disclosure AND Notify Requestor and Subject of Records of Agency's determination Step 4: Contact the Requestor Confirm receipt of request Determine whether Requestor is an Arkansas citizen Seek clarification, if needed, regarding parameters of request Request additional time for compliance, if necessary; confirm in writing Notify Requestor in writing if significant copying costs are anticipated

3 Step 5: Locate Records Do not overlook archived and electronic records Step 6: Analyze Records Is the record covered? Required by law to be kept or otherwise kept Performance or lack of performance of official functions Presumed to be a public record if: Maintained in public offices or by public employees Within the scope of their employment Do any exemptions apply? Statutory FOIA, including personnel and evaluation records Other state and federal statutes Constitutional See FOIA Handbook (17th ed.) and Common Exemptions Analysis, attached as Appendix A. BEWARE OF MIXED RECORDS Step 7: Redact Records, If Necesssary See FOIA Reference List, attached as Appendix B, for additional guidance on redactions.

4 Step 8: For Personnel or Evaluation Records, Notify Requestor and Subject of Records Must determine within 24 hours from receipt whether records are exempt from disclosure See FOIA Handbook (17th ed.), Common Exemptions Analysis and FOIA Reference List, attached as Appendices A and B. Must make efforts to fullest extent possible to notify Requestor and Subject of Records of decision See Sample Notification Language, attached as Appendix C. If subject cannot be contacted in person or by phone, must send written notice via overnight delivery to last known address Provide documents to subject of records in both the redacted and unredacted form so that subject can make informed decision whether to request an AG Opinion Custodian, Requestor, or Subject may immediately seek an AG Opinion Requests for AG Opinions must be sent by: Fax to (501) or to Cheryl.Hall@ArkansasAG.gov or Beth.Walker@ArkansasAG.gov. Records shall not be disclosed pending AG review

5 Step 9: Copy Records Can charge only cost of reproduction, including mailing or faxing costs (No automatic $.25 per page charge) Cannot charge for employee time May require advance payment if fee exceeds $25 Step 10: Disclose Records Maintain a copy of all records that are produced to requestor

6 Appendix A Common Exemptions Analysis PERSONNEL AND EVALUATION RECORDS Personnel Records All records pertaining to an employee that are not evaluation records DISCLOSE UNLESS doing so constitutes a "clearly unwarranted invasion of personal privacy" "Clearly Unwarranted" Test Step 1: Identify the Privacy Interest Is it personal or intimate? Is the interest minor? If yes, disclose the record. If no, proceed to Step 2. Step 2: Identify the Public Interest Does it shed light on government activities? Weigh public interest against privacy interest: Disclose record if equal or public interest outweighs

7 Evaluation Records Any records (1) created by or at the behest of the employer (2) to evaluate an employee (3) that details the employee's performance or lack or performance on the job Do Not Disclose UNLESS Employee has been suspended or terminated; Final administrative resolution of the termination or suspension; Records formed the basis for the suspension or termination; AND There is a compelling public interest in the disclosure Exemption Based on Constitutional Right to Privacy Constitutional privacy interest applies to matters that: (1) An individual wants to and has kept confidential; (2) Can be kept confidential but for the challenged governmental action in disclosing the information; and (3) Would be harmful or embarrassing to a reasonable person if disclosed. If the test is met, custodian must determine whether governmental interest in disclosure outweighs the privacy interest in withholding.

8 Appendix B FOIA Reference List This checklist collects information from statutes and Attorney General Opinions for the convenience of FOIA custodians. It is not all-inclusive and is intended to be used as a general guide. For additional information on exemptions and redactions, please consult the Arkansas Freedom of Information Act Handbook (17 th ed.) or contact your Assistant Attorney General. For a discussion of the general standards governing disclosure under FOIA, and personnel record and evaluation record exemptions, see AG Op. Nos and Statutory Exemptions Contained in FOIA The FOIA contains 23 specific exemptions relating to public records. A.C.A (b). For the text of these exemptions, see the FOIA Handbook (17th ed.). Contained in Other Statutes The FOIA is not all-inclusive. Other state statutes create exceptions to the open records provisions of FOIA. See FOIA Handbook (17th ed.), at 41. Redactions As examples, the following information should not be disclosed under FOIA and must be redacted if it constitutes a discrete part of a requested document: The Office of Driver s Services should not disclose driver s license abstracts and other discreet pieces of driver s license information that would be otherwise exempt from FOIA. AG Op. No Name, address and phone number accessed through 911 information. Exemption not applicable to recordings of 911 calls, which are public record. AG Op. No Work papers submitted to the Ark. Home Inspector Registration Board for action on complaints. A.C.A

9 If a record is supplied from U.S. Department of Health and Human Services Division of Select Agents and Toxins to Arkansas Department of Health, it is exempt from public discourse under 42 U.S.C. 262a(h). AG Op. No Taped inmate disciplinary hearings; and inmates taped phone calls that are part of the inmate s Institutional File and Inmate Jacket. AG Op. No Non-Exempt Information The following information is not exempt and must be disclosed: Expenditure and grant information from the Arkansas Economic Development Commission. A.C.A (b)(9)(B). Law enforcement agencies records of the number of undercover officers and agency lists. A.C.A (b)(10)(B). Complaints made to licensing and regulatory agencies about practitioners. AG Op. No Employee-Related Records Personnel Records Definition Personnel records are all records other than employee evaluation and job performance records that pertain to individual employees. AG Op Test Personnel records are exempt from disclosure to the extent that disclosure would constitute a clearly unwarranted invasion of personal privacy. A.C.A (b)(12). Courts apply a two-part balancing test:

10 First, the custodian must assess whether information contained in the requested document is of a personal or intimate nature such that it gives rise to a greater than de minimis privacy interest. If the privacy interest is merely de minimis, the thumb on the scale favoring disclosure outweighs the privacy interest. If the information does give rise to a greater than de minimis privacy interest, the custodian must determine whether that interest is outweighed by the public s interest in disclosure. Exceptions must be narrowly construed, and the person resisting disclosure bears the burden of showing that his privacy interests outweigh the public s interests. See AG Op. No Redactions from Personnel Records The following information must be deleted from personnel records prior to the records release: Personal contact information of current and former non-elected state employees, nonelected municipal employees, non-elected school employees, and nonelected county employees contained in employer records. A.C.A (b)(13). This includes home addresses, personal telephone numbers (home or mobile), and personal addresses.
