There is no requirement for KDOA to create a record at your request. If KDOA takes longer than three business days to act on your request, you will receive notice from KDOA explaining that it will take additional time to produce the records. Reasons for additional time may include, but are not limited to, voluminous records, complicated request parameters, unresolved legal issues or difficulty in accessing archived records. Your request may be denied in whole or in part. If the request is denied, KDOA will identify generally the records denied, and the specific legal authority for the denial.
Most records maintained by public entities are open for public inspection and copying.
The KORA recognizes that certain records contain private or privileged information. You will be asked to submit your request in writing. Please be as specific as possible in describing the public records you want. KDOA can send you a form to assist you in making your request.
