Section 329IAC3.1-2-4. Requests to which this rule applies

   (a) This rule applies to any written request for records related to IC 13-22 or this article (other than a request made by a federal or another state agency) received by any IDEM office, whether or not the request cites any particular legal authority.

  (b) Any written request to the IDEM for existing records prepared by the IDEM for routine public distribution, for example, pamphlets, copies of speeches, press releases, and educational materials, shall be honored. No individual determination under section 11 of this rule is necessary in such cases, since preparation of the records for routine public distribution itself constitutes a determination that the records are available to the public.

  (c) This rule replaces the provisions of 329 IAC 6 for purposes of hazardous waste records filed or maintained in accordance with IC 13-22 or this article.
