From: New York City Department of Environmental Protection
The Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) has closed your FOIL request FOIL-2023-826-04331 for the following reasons: (https://a860-openrecords.nyc.gov/request/view/FOIL-2023-826-04331)
Please be advised that the NYC Department of Environmental Protection (“DEP”) has denied your Freedom or Information Law (FOIL) request pursuant to Public Officers Law §89(3) because it is required that a request for a record be reasonably described, the search terms too broad which requires us to make a series of judgment calls which we are not required to do as this goes beyond the scope of the public officers law.
