RE: PUBLIC RECORDS REQUEST of October 03, 2023, UCI PRA# R007134-100323 - 10-DAY
Dear Jason Koebler,

This message acknowledges the request for records of October 03, 2023 under PRA# R007134-100323:

"To Whom It May Concern:

Pursuant to the California Public Records Act, I hereby request the following records:

Public reports show that the robotic delivery company Starship is operating at your university: https://www.starship.xyz/starship-food-delivery-app/

Therefore, I hereby request the following records:

1) All presentations and presentation materials (including recorded video and audio, PowerPoint files, prepared remarks, and slides formats), and other information presented to the university/University Police Department about Starship/Starship robots. (A search was performed. No responsive records were located)

2) A copy of any incident reports relating to Starship delivery robots, including attachments and media. ( Responsive records collected and being processed for release)

3) Any emails between the university and other members of the University about or mentioning Starship delivery robots, including attachments and media. ( This item is worded too broadly to permit a reasonable search likely to yield responsive records.   Could you please refine the request to include a specific key words or narrow the terms university and other members to a more defined population? )

4) Any emails between the university and employees of Starship. (This is also worded too broadly to allow us to identify responsive records.)

5) Any resident /student complaints about Starship robots or other delivery robots. (Following a search, no records of complaints were located)

6) Any requests for evidence, subpoenas, or other legal requests about Starship. (Following a search, no records of subpoenas were located, the remaining terms evidence or other legal requests are too broad to use in a reasonable search for responsive records.)

7) Any video footage or audio given to the university or university police department by Starship (UC Irvine Dining Services reports that the units have sensors but sensor readings are not provided to the University in the normal course of business; therefore, there are no records for this item.)

Please search between August 1, 2022 and the time this request is processed.

The requested documents will be made available to the general public, and this request is not being made for commercial purposes.

In the event that there are fees, I would be grateful if you would inform me of the total charges in advance of fulfilling my request. I would prefer the request filled electronically, by e-mail attachment if available or CD-ROM if not. (No charge for this request)

Thank you in advance for your anticipated cooperation in this matter. I look forward to receiving your response to this request within 10 calendar days, as the statute requires.

Sincerely,

Jason Koebler
UC Irvine Public Records Office has collected records for item 2 and additional time is needed to complete the processing.   No records were located for items 1, 5 and 6.     Items 3 and 4 are overly broad as worded.  Please refine the wording, if possible.  Item 7 is not a type of record we would have in the normal course of business.

We are anticipate producing the responsive records on or about: October 31, 2023.
An update will be provided on the status of this request once the review is complete.

Thea Bullock
