Aloha, Unfortunately, we only keep our active log (July 1st 2020 to June 30th 2021 currently). HIOSH does not maintain the past records of request log. Mahalo, HIOSH From: R.

Please note that destroying the log is not consistent with OIP recommendations regarding retention. See the following excerpt from OIP’s FAQ regarding the request logs. 18. What is the retention period for the Logs? OIP does not set or administer agencies’ retention schedules. However, according to the Department of Accounting and General Services’ General Records Schedule 1.17, formal requests for government information under Part II of chapter 92F, HRS (UIPA) must be retained for 2 years after action on the request is completed. Therefore, OIP recommends that the department also retain its Log for 2 years after submitting it to OIP. Since this log is a statutorily required report to OIP, please let me know when a copy of the log was sent to OIP and pursuant to HAR 2-71-13 who else at DLIR may have a copy of the report. If none of that information is available, please provide a copy of all requests and HIOSH’s responses for the period from July 1, 2019 to June 30, 2020, which are required to be retained for 2 years and that would have been logged in the report. Lastly, I would ask that HIOSH adjust its retention practices consistent with OIP’s recommendation and the entire purpose of these reports. Best, Brian

Aloha, thank you for sending that log. Did HIOSH receive any requests in the second half of FY 2020 (Jan. 1, 2020 - June 30, 2020)? The file name for the document provided indicates that it was the semi-annual report submitted in January 2020. Also, for as long as these reports have been maintained, HIOSH has had more than 20 requests every year, so it is strange that there would be only 1 request for all of FY 2020. Best, Brian
