Good afternoon,
A preliminary search using the parameters you identified in your request
yielded over 5,000 emails. In order to fulfill your request, the OPRA
custodian would be required to conduct a review of these email headers for
any privileged material that needed to be redacted or withheld and conduct
a review for any other redactions appropriate under the law, such as
redactions of personally identifiable information.
Such a review would be unduly burdensome and substantially disruptive to
the DOE’s operations. Accordingly, we request that you modify the scope
of your request. Otherwise, your request will be denied pursuant to
N.J.S.A. 47:1A-5(g), which provides, in pertinent part, “If a request for
access to a government record would substantially disrupt agency
operations, the custodian may deny access to the record after attempting
to reach a reasonable solution with the requestor that accommodates the
interests of the requestor and the agency.”
