RE: Public Records Reference # P006397-100421
Dear John:
This email is in response to your California Public Records Act request dated October 04, 2021. The Huntington Beach Police Department has made a reasonable effort to search for and locate documents that appear to be responsive to your request.
Please note that the records provided do not include records or portions of records that are exempt from disclosure pursuant to Government Code Section 6254 or other applicable law. Without limiting other arguments against disclosure that may exist, there are records or portions of records which were specifically exempted from disclosure:
Records in which the public interest in maintaining confidentiality outweighs the public interest in disclosing (Government Code Section(s) 6255).
In addition to the records provided, approximately one year ago, we procured a Teradyne Armored Rescue Vehicle with UASI funds through Anaheim PD. All procurement paperwork was handled by the City of Anaheim, you would have to request documents through Anaheim reference the vehicle.
The Huntington Beach Police Department has uploaded the response to your request to the portal. You can log into the system at Public Records Center.
If you have any questions, please reply to this email.
Thank you,

Dear Shantel Collins,
Thank you so much for your response to my Public Records Act request P006397-100421 for purchase and deployment records of certain types of equipment from the Huntington Beach PD.
You note that you are withholding some records or portions of records in which the public interest in maintaining confidentiality outweighs the public interest in disclosing. I note that some of the records that were released are redacted - presumably based on your determination of this exemption.
However, you did not either disclose nor state whether a search was made for the following records, nor whether you determined any responsive records as exempt:
3. Records of deployment by your agency since January 1, 2020 of projectile launch platforms, such as 40mm projectile launchers, "bean bag" or specialty impact munition ("SIM") weapons, and "riot guns" used to disperse chemical agents; explosives and pyrotechnics, such as "flashbang" grenades and explosive breaching tools; and chemical weapons such as "teargas" and "pepper balls".
Please let me know whether a search was made for such records, and if so, the outcome.
Many thanks for your help on this request.
best,
John Lindsay-Poland
