A. Make the Record Available
If the record is listed under HRS § 92F-12 (records that are always
public) or is a record available for public access in its entirety (i.e.,
it is clear no exception applies to any portion of the record and there
is no need to search for the record), then the agency must disclose
the record within a reasonable time not to exceed 10 business days
or upon prepayment of fees, if required by the agency.
When a record is easily accessible, the agency should not delay
its disclosure. In such a case, disclosure on the tenth day, absent
other circumstances, would likely not be reasonable.

B. Provide Notice or Acknowledgment
to the Requester
For a record not listed under HRS § 92F-12 or that is not publicly
available in its entirety, the agency must provide a written
response to the requester within 10 business days.
1. Notice to Requester
The Notice to Requester provides information required by OIP’s
administrative rules about how the agency will provide access
to the requested record, including when and to what extent the
records will be made available.
* OIP has created a “Notice to Requester” form that the agency may use.
It is available in Word and pdf format on the OIP website. A copy is
attached to this handbook as Appendix B.
