We encourage you to remove any request for records that are potentially: 1) commercial or financial; 2) confidential or privileged; and 3) received from a business. These records must go through Executive Order 12600 review, which increases the processing time. If you don’t need these records, add the following language to your request:
I am not requesting any records subject to Executive Order 12600.
 
If the employer is not under federal OSHA, send your request to the state plan.
Contact us if you have a question about your FOIA request.
