The Illinois State Police ("ISP") acknowledges receipt of your FOIA request.
Your FOIA request has been assigned the following tracking number: [ FOIR 19-2350]. For all future correspondence, please including this tracking number.
Your FOIA request is being processed. There are several steps involved in this process including determining whether the appropriate sections of the ISP may have any records that are responsive to your request. Afterwards, a determination is made on whether the records can be released or are exempt under the Freedom of Information Act, 5 ILCS 140/1 et. seq. If only a portion of the records can only be released, the remaining records are redacted to remove certain exempt information. Unfortunately, this entire process takes a significant amount of time.
We apologize for the delay in responding to your request. Last year, we received more than 3,800 FOIA requests. The FOIA Department has been under staffed, but is in the process of hiring and training new staff.
Again, we are sorry for the delay. Thank you for your patience.

Re: FOIR # 19-2350 Extension
Dear Mr. Schiano:
The Illinois State Police acknowledges receipt of your FOIA request dated 08/04/2019. (See attached request). A response to your request is due 08/12/2019. However, additional time is needed to respond to your request. In accordance with Section 3 (e) of the Freedom of Information Act (5 ILCS 140/3 (e)), the response due date is being extended to 08/19/2019. The basis for this extension is as follows:
_____ The requested records are stored in whole or in part at another location.
_____ The request requires the collection of a substantial number of records.
_____ The request is stated in categorical terms which requires an extensive search for the records requested.
__X__ The requested records have not yet been located and additional time is needed to complete the search.
__X__ The requested records require examination and evaluation to determine if the documents are exempt from disclosure and/or must be redacted.
__X__ The requested records cannot be provided within the prescribed time frame without causing an undue burden or interfering with the operation of the Department.
_____ Consultation is needed with another public body in order to respond to the request.
Our Records Department is still completing a search for the records. If they are able to locate records, they will be redacted copies. Unredacted copies of records are only available through a subpoena or the Attorney General.
