The Illinois State Police (ISP) acknowledges receipt of your attached Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request. A response to your request is due October 28, 2024. However, additional time is needed to respond to your request.

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 and 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 ISP.
Consultation is needed with another public body in order to respond to the request.
