In reference to your records request, I require additional time to respond. This is due to the unexpected large number of responsive records and based on the need to gather and determine whether any of the information requested is statutorily exempt from disclosure.
Accordingly, I estimate that by 2/14/2023, I will mail you copies of the responsive records.
Charges may apply for copies of responsive records. If there is a charge, I will provide an invoice that is due upon receipt.

Thank you for your patience in awaiting this information.

Sincerely,

Upload documents directly: https://www.muckrock.com/ The NYS Office of Cannabis Management has reviewed its files and has located responsive records to your request. Your request was denied in part as a portion of the responsive records were determined to be exempt from disclosure pursuant to Public Officers Law  § 87(2)(g), as they are inter-agency or intra-agency materials which are not statistical or factual tabulations or data; instructions to staff that affect the public; final agency policy or determinations; or external audits.   Other records were determined to be exempt from disclosure pursuant to Public Officer’s Law § 87(2)(e), as the records were compiled for law-enforcement purposes and disclosure would: i nterfere with law enforcement investigations or judicial proceedings; deprive a person of a right to a fair trial or impartial adjudication; identify a confidential source or disclose confidential information relating to a criminal investigation; and/or reveal criminal investigative techniques or procedures. Finally, the request for portions of records containing information that could be a violation of personal privacy was denied. Because such information is exempt from disclosure under Public Officers Law §§87(2)(b) and 89(2)(b), it has been redacted in the attached documents. Your request is granted for the portions of such records not containing exempt information. Please log in to the FOIL Records Center at the following link to retrieve the responsive records.
